One obvious question--can you find out if those

I'll ask the question and see what happens, if it's a confused mixture
of metric and imperial, does that mean it's a NASA rocket?


Only if it's from a project that NASA wanted to kill.

NASA has recently announced (see

http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2...metricmoon.htm

that all manned operations on the moon will use metric measurements.
This is probably NASA's way of telling the American public that
we won't return to the moon after all, not if we have to go without
our 3/8 inch socket wrenches.
