Cool stats and description. One issue, in "Merlin 1D Inflight Operating Time" the paragraph text is cut off and I'm unable to scroll to see the rest of it.

I get to see the Website for a brief second, then, "You need Javascript enabled to view this website. Try again... " even though it displays at first.

Nonsense.

At least one stat shown is already out of date; the quickest turnaround so far was 19 days, from launch 15 (DSCOVER) to launch 16 (two comsats). They will improve on this if they get the TurkmenAlem launch off today.

Agreed with others on the funky scrolling, btw: violating user expectations about how common UI actions ought to work is a bug in your site, not a feature.

That javascript slideshow style is really un-user-friendly, especially with largely static content. It's not enhancing anything more than simply assembling the whole thing into a single page with normal scrolling.

nice idea and looks pretty, but I hate the weird scroll hijacking.

Even worse than simply changing the way it normally scrolls, it hijacks some gestures on OSX, so instead of being able to do a two finger sweep to get back to HN, I had to try a few times just to discover it was advancing the slides and not due to user error, then go to the back button.

More stats here for context, also in perhaps a better format: http://www.spacelaunchreport.com/log2014.html#rate
