Talk:Chang'e 5-T1

Chinese Lunar Exploration Program
I think that this deletion is not correct. The 5-T1 test seems to be an intermediary step of the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program. Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 21:22, 15 October 2014 (UTC)


 * 4throck (talk) 11:59, 16 October 2014 (UTC)I put the previous / next missions there in the first place, but agree that it's better without. Since this mission is a technical test, the next mission would be Chang'e 5-T2, if that ever happens.
 * I guess the "T" stands for test. So if it is not a full mission, the deletion is OK by me then. Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 14:36, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
 * One hint: the rocket fairing carrying Chang'e 5-T1 actually got the CLEP logo painted on it, so it seems that the Chinese do consider it as a mission in the CLEP program. ;) Galactic Penguin SST (talk) 11:08, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Of course. It's part of CLEP and that's indicated on the article. Now for the mission box, I still think that this mission is a one off. Anyway don't see a problem there either way.

Use of the term "perilune" is a barbarism, as peri is from the Greek for close while lune is from Latin. NASA ordained during the Apollo era that the term to be used was pericynthion.Tham153 (talk) 23:10, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Add 4M Mission as Secondary Payload
Following the style of SpaceX CRS-3, I created a "Secondary payloads" section to include information about the 4M mission payload. Are there any other known secondary payloads that may be included? Oreo masta (talk) 22:43, 16 October 2014 (UTC)


 * The miniature sensors called "Pocket Spacecraft", apparently. Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 01:15, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Active?
Is this mission still active? List of active Solar System probes says it is and the "extended mission duration" here seems to agree, but the content of the article doesn't: of the two payloads, one has returned (the capsule), and the other has competed its own mission (4M).

Alleged third stage impact crater found.
Could someone upload this image and add it to the article? Thanks. https://www.lroc.asu.edu/posts/1261 --2.47.122.159 (talk) 09:40, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
