i figure that most of the wonders will be the same as in civ2. i also believe that someone mentioned a certain amount of major and minor wonders. so this would mess up your list somewhat. As for the great canal in my opinion it should be in the industrial rather than modern age.

the exploration of hte new world??? as a wonder???
I don't think so....
the indians...aztecs..incas... they wouldn't really be looking for a new world... and what of a random map?
the rest are ok but yup there are going to be minor wonders and if I am right the major wonders are going to be fewer than those in civ2...meaning that they'd have to be REALLY big wonders.

I cannot remember if we where the first to send an animals (Monkey, Chimp) into space. They did send a dog into space twice. Yes to first man and woman, however we where the first Space Station. It was called Sky Lab. It came down in the early 80s. I saw the station as it pass overhead one night a few days before it crashed into the ocean.

No offense, but could you actually check what you're saying before you say it? The Russians had dogs (Laika and Chaika) and monkeys in space a long time before the Americans had anything ready. You can check it in any respectable encyclopedia, library, etc. Second, the first space station was called Salyut I and was sent up years before skylab. In fact, there were several Russian space stations before Skylab.
You should learn something from this, buddy...DON'T SAY WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW.

OK you win part of it. I'm reading "Life in Space" by Time Life Book.
1957, Nov. 3, Sputnik II (USSR) First satellite to collect biological data from orbit; carried dog Laika.
1959, May 28, Jupiter (USA) First primates in space (Able & Baker): suborbital
1960, Aug. 19, Sputnik (USSR) First recovery of orbited animals from space (dogs Strelka and Belka). (I guess the first two dogs died in space).
1961, Jan. 31, Mercury-Redstone 2 (USA) First test of Mercury-Redstone fight vehicle with passenger aboard (Chimpanzee Ham): suborbital.
1969, July 16, Apollo (USA) First Manned lunar landing. First men to walk on moon's surface. Neil Armstrong, Buss Aldrin, Michael Collins; 22 hours on moon, with 2-hours-35 min. EVA. (I sat in my living room and watch the entire show). If my memory is correct the people of Russia where not aloud to watch the show.
1971, April 19, Salyut 1 (USSR) Unmanned prototype for orbiting space station and laboratory: decayed Oct. 11, 1971
April 23, Soyuz 10 (USSR) First crew to dock with orbiting Salyut 1 (5 hours 30 min) Did not go on board.
June 6, Soyuz 11 (USSR) First crew to occupy orbiting Salyut space station (22 days) because of accidental depressurization, cosmonauts died on reentry. (Salyut was the only space station prior to Skylab).
1973, May 14, Skylab (USA) First unmanned American space station; placed in earth orbit but damaged during launch.
May 25, Skylab 1 (USA) First crew to occupy Skylab (28) days; replaced thermal shield and repaired solar wing.
Somewhere in this house, I have a book if I did not give it the school where I work that has every launch that ever happen listed in it.
In the early days of space flight the Russian where sending up a lot of Rocket with space capsule on them and said over and over no body was on board, however we the U.S. never belive them, so how many Russian died in orbit before they got it right?
At my old job, the rumor was Yuri was number 3 in space.
And one last thing, since my policies is not to say a bad thing to other who post here, say it nice or not at all. You are not my buddy today or ever.

Leonardo was the most unbalancing wonder in the game. It ruined MP games fast and allowed a good player to beat the AI every time. If it is in Civ III it needs to be balanced more effectively. The same goes for Adam Smith's.

Yes a good idea. In CTP 2 the first one to go around the world received a Feat of Wonder and receive one extra tile to his/her naval movement for 25 turns.
