First route map! I will keep it going, mostly on LROC images, as I need it for a future project. I am still working on an accurate scale.

I am revising and extending my old Moon book, and just did some work on Chang'E 3. This and some recent publications allow me to revise the route map, and now I am confident I do have the dates correct... though there is still some uncertainty about whether some dates correspond to Beijing time or Universal Time. So here is probably the last update of this thread.

The Chinese names come mostly from a mission overview paper in Space Science Reviews:

Li, C. et al, 2015. The Chang’e 3 Mission Overview. Space Science Reviews, v. 190, pp. 85-101.
