I have merged the article Pegasus (satellite) with this one, and converted it to a redirect. They were on one and the same topic. Deuar 19:44, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There is some confusion over the names of the Pegasus spacecraft. Here we had Pegasus I, on the old, now merged, page Pegasus (satellite) they are called Pegasus 1, 2 and 3, while on the Apollo mission pages they are called Pegasus A, B, and C. Deuar 19:44, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Before launch NASA satellites are differentiated by letters, after launch by numbers. Thus, Peg A, B and C became Peg 1, 2, and 3.
MAN retired NASA engineer.
The Apollo A103, 104, and 105 pages all make references to when their Pegasus payloads were commanded "off". This information should be included alongside the decay dates. 147.145.40.43 22:47, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

@JustinTime55: satellites in a series are launched after the previous one retires while satellites forming a constellation operate simultaneously. thanks fgnievinski (talk) 01:03, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
working together as a system, for the purpose of
providing permanent global or near-global coverage, for communications or Earth observation. There is no requirement that says a satellite series cannot remain simultaneously active. The satellites were designed to investigate the space environment, not the Earth's surface, and were never referred to as a "constellation". JustinTime55 (talk) 01:40, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
