  1. I have confirmed with Asianometry that this was a typo. It's 14km (8.7 miles), not 140km (87 miles). The description and transcript has been updated. The number comes from a book: "Over 1973-4, the new disk brake was tested in wind tunnels and in drops from helicopters and aircraft from altitudes as high as 14,000 m. The spacecraft model was also dropped onto simulated Venusian soil made from foam concrete." (from the book "Russian Planetary Exploration History, Development, Legacy and Prospects: by Brian Harvey).

  12. Addressed at timestamp 2:00 with "Pioneer-Venus doesn't count" comment. I don't really agree with that comment though.
