The current hook is very bland, as I believe that most readers tend to associate astronauts with science anyway, so many astronauts being scientists is pretty much a given. Can something better be proposed here? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:25, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

Comment NASA selected a second group of scientist-astronauts in 1967, after which the idea was dropped. Starting in 1978, astronauts other than pilots were selected under the designation of mission specialist; but they are not necessarily or even usually scientists. Consider the latest lot for example. (And note that four are test pilots.) Hawkeye7 (discuss) 22:22, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
- Template:Ping Since this has been stuck for a while now, would you be fine with Template:U's suggested hook? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 03:27, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
- Putting Neopeius's suggestion below to fit DYK standards:
- ALT ... that NASA Astronaut Group 4, selected in 1965 for the Apollo program, was the first recruited primarily on the basis of scientific experience?
- Just waiting for Hawkeye's response, after which a full review will be done. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 10:34, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
- Putting Neopeius's suggestion below to fit DYK standards:
The article was promoted to GA status in the required time frame, and I didn't find any close paraphrasing. QPQ has been done. There are two main issues: the hook fact is only explicitly mentioned in the lead and lacks a citation, and there doesn't seem to be a footnote for the "qualifications" bullet-list. Of the hooks proposed, only Neopeius's suggestion is approved as it appears that is the one that has reached consensus. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:30, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
Thanks, should be good to go now. Striking other proposed hooks. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:39, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
