I thought it was time to split the subject from the Moon forum.
Admins, can you move the relevant messages here? anyway, just out: an interesting blog article by Bill Gray explaining how he recovered the probe and how he computed the orbit yielding the 13 December flyby date Chang'e 2: The Full Story |

And Paolo - doesn't that suggest the forward camera will take one and the rearward camera will take one? Otherwise you seem to be suggesting the spacecraft reorient itself during each sequence.
