Comment[edit]

Nozomi is also a Japanese female name. Should this be added to the article? 85.164.76.159 17:09, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I'm not sure. Hope is also an English female name, but if an American spacecraft was named Hope we probably wouldn't mention the female name. -- Curps 17:59, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

The article states:

It was constructed by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, University of Tokyo

At that time, ISAS was not part of U Tokyo anymore. Was there a major involvement of U Tokyo? --Fukumoto 15:08, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No consensus to move. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:55, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nozomi (probe) → Nozomi probe — for consistency, per Suisei probe (PLANET-A) – 86.162.163.210 (talk) 22:37, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose as its name is "Nozomi", so "Nozomi (probe)" is the most accurate. ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WikiProject Japan! 02:38, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. As above, the name appears to be "Nozomi", not "Nozomi probe". --DAJF (talk) 23:03, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. I proposed this move, but since then Suisei probe has moved to Suisei (probe), and Akatsuki (Planet-C) is about to move to Akatsuki (probe) - see Talk:Akatsuki (Planet-C). 86.147.206.66 (talk) 17:48, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article says it is still active. Can we add : how much fuel is left, what communications are working, and when it next approaches Mars ? Rod57 (talk) 09:30, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The operation was terminated by sending the cease command on December 31, 2003. (The communication was lost before that already.) --Fukumoto (talk) 15:58, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article says that this spacecraft is orbiting the sun, but the summary box says it's a satellite of Mars. Greg (talk) 06:24, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Summary box now says heliocentric. Could add period. - Rod57 (talk) 08:11, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
