Results?

The project started in December of 1955 to study the effects of cosmic rays on humans.

So, can anybody contribute the answer to the article? Currently there's no content regarding the results of the project. Tempshill (talk) 03:17, 24 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Meters?

edit

I personally prefer the metric system... but as this was a US project conducted by US engineers, it's likely that it was performed using the US system (or Imperial, or whatever). I say this also because I was adding in the {{convert}} templates, but, when I went to do the three bulletted missions, I found that the feet measurements have more significant digits than the meters. This makes me think that the foot measurements should come first. But, then I'd have to change the whole article, for consistency.

And, now the thunderstorm here is gonna knock out my power lines. Gotta go, again!! — gogobera (talk) 19:19, 4 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Article name

edit

Most official sources that I've encountered call it "Project Man High", not "Project Manhigh". Currently, "Project Man High" redirects to "Project Manhigh". It should be swapped. In secondary sources I've seen it rendered "MANHIGH", "MAN-HIGH", "Manhigh" and "Man-High", sometimes even mixing the style within the same source. It's a mess. —QuicksilverT @ 17:11, 9 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

The sign in the picture, all the books written about or concerning the project, and the name of the season one finale of Showtime's Masters of Sex all call it Manhigh. Seems to be the name set in stone (or air) now. Randy Kryn 11:52 19 December 2013 (UTC)
