Is it still in orbit

[edit]

The refs say it collected data for 4 days, and produced the maps and time lapse X-ray images, but is it still operational, or still in orbit ? What orbit altitude ? What inclination ? Launched on a solid fuel rocket - which rocket ? - Rod57 (talk) 10:04, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Partner is China not NASA

[edit]

Article was linked to Einstein Probe because refs said it would be carrying full 12 module WXT, but was changed (by Storchy?) to link to existing NASA Einstein Vision Probes which seems to have nothing to do with EP-WXT or WXT. Also tried to add hatnote to say for the NASA X-ray telescope WFXT see Wide Field X-ray Telescope (very different ? and not yet built) Rod57 (talk) 22:14, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
