I think the article generally satisfies GA criteria. However I noticed a few minor problems:

  1. The use of SI and imperial units is not consistent. For instance, in the lead I read 100 metres (330 ft). SI units are used as primary units, which then are converted into feet. However in the 'History and observation' section heights are measured in feet, which then are converted into metres. I suggest using SI units as primary units and converting them into imperial (see WP:MOSNUM).
    Done- I see User:Serendipodous did a bit on this already.
  2. Per WP:MOSNUM numbers should be separated from the units of measurement by non-breaking space ( ). Currently many numbers are written without any space at all (like 0.387AU). Please, add non-breaking spaces.
    Done
  3. In the ref 12 the title of the publication should not be written in capital letters.
    Done
  4. It is always better to cite a final publication, not a preprint. I noticed that ref 17 was published in Nature. Please, cite Nature. It will add more weight to this source. The link to the preprint can remain though.
    Done
  5. There may be some minor prose issues. So I will give the article the second reading tomorrow.

I will put the article on hold. If the problems are fixed I will promote it. Ruslik (talk) 11:54, 5 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, after a copy-edit the article satisfies GA criteria, and I will promote it. Ruslik (talk) 16:32, 6 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
P.S. Per WP:MOSNUM dates should not be autoformated. I fixed this problem myself. Ruslik (talk) 16:33, 6 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
Woohoo! Thanks for the review and suggestions. Regards, Reyk YO! 19:12, 6 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
