'Blatent advertising' allegations

This article has been tagged for 'speedy deletion', as apparently it counts as 'blatent advertising'. I don't believe this to be the case, and have contested the tag.

You can read my justification for this article the talk page of the editor in question: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Blanchardb#European_Student_Moon_Orbiter

19 or 20 teams?

In the first paragraph, it says that there are 19 teams, but there are 20 listed below. This is a blatant inconsistency, and I suppose it's meant to be 20.. This may have been caused as a new team has recently been added?

OK, I changed it, since I noticed it also said 20 lower down as well.

There are currently 21 teams from 19 European universities participating in the project. The up-to-date information can be found on the ESMO pages from ESA's Education Office:

Broken reference

Reference 2 is broken, but I'm not sure what to do about it. Willplatts (talk) 09:26, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

The ESA Education website moved a year ago, that article is now on: http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Education/SEML0MPR4CF_0.html

General description

On the general description of ESMO, the mass, volume, information on travel (3 months instead of direct transfer), payloads and technical facts are missing. These can also be found on the ESA ESMO pages.

Lunar transfer

Isn't it supposed to be Earth-Moon L1 Lagrange point, instead of Sun-Earth L1? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.32.52.96 (talk) 19:22, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Not according to the ESA website which says travel is via Sun-Earth L1, I see what you mean though as Earth-Moon L1 would make more sense, perhaps they got it wrong on their website? On a related note that information in the article is seemingly copy/pasted from the ESA website... ChiZeroOne (talk) 19:32, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

ESA concludes student ESMO Moon orbiter project

According to a news article on ESA's web site http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Education/SEMFX0KWZ0H_0.html, titled "ESA concludes student ESMO Moon orbiter project", the ESMO project will not proceed to the next project phase. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maxralf (talk • contribs) 16:16, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
