Moon Mission Carrying Ham Transmitter Successful
A satellite from Luxembourg, flying as a
"passenger" on a Chinese lunar fly-by mission and transmitting on 2
meters, successfully flew to and around the moon, then returned to Earth orbit.
The Chinese mothership deployed the 4M (Manfred Memorial Moon Mission)
satellite into orbit before it safely landed back on Earth. Several amateurs
were able to track 4M on its journey. For more info, click here or visit <
