Lunar satellite sends pictures to radio hams

GB Times reports a tiny Chinese satellite is orbiting the Moon and allowing
radio amateurs to download images

One of two microsatellites launched along with a required communications
relay satellite in May has quietly been allowing radio operators to
download images from the spacecraft taken along its elliptical lunar orbit.

Longjiang-2, aka DSLWP-B, was developed by students at the Harbin Institute
of Technology (HIT) in Heilongjiang Province, northeast China. Despite
having a mass of just 47 kg, the tiny satellite managed to use its own
propulsion to slow down and enter lunar orbit while the relay satellite
continued past the Moon to its special destination.
