• External payloads on #Tianzhou5
  
  High-energy particle detector (the one with cylindrical segment)
  Hydrogen-Oxygen fuel cell to support future lunar crewed missions (the two blocks that are connected by cables)
  Macau cubesat (to be deployed probably before reentry)?

  In fact Macau Student Science Satellite I launched is *not* Aoke 1, which is quite another project.

  According to the China National Space Administration (CNSA), the Tianzhou-5 (天舟五号) cargo spacecraft was undocked from the Tianhe Core Module (天和核心舱) on 5 May 2023, at 07:26 UTC (15:26 China Standard Time), and started an “independent flight stage”. Tianzhou-5 will be re-docked to the China Space Station(中国空间站), on the front port of the Tianhe Core Module, after the departure of the Shenzhou-15  (神舟十五) crew spacecraft.

  The Tianzhou-5 cargo ship, which undocked from the Chinese space station at 0846 UTC Sep 11, is reported to have made its deorbit burn and reentered at 0113 UTC. Its predicted ground track at that time was over the Pacific at 173E 13S

  Allowing for the slower velocity post the deorbit burn, actual reentry point mght be more like 175E 14S, same general area of the Pacific
