• ... that Russian satellite Luch 5B will relay data from the International Space Station (pictured)?

• ALT1:... that Russian satellite Luch 5B has military as well as civil uses?

• Comment: Boring hook is boring. There is a bad pun with the ISS picture as luch means ray/beam. Obviously that light beam isn't the data.. Secretlondon (talk) 22:03, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

Other photos are below. They are It's 5A not 5B but they'll look pretty similar. They are a bit cluttered at 100px alas. Secretlondon (talk) 22:03, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

• ALT0a: ... that newly launched Russian satellite Luch 5B will relay data from the International Space Station (pictured)?
• ALT2: ... that Luch 5B will work with Russian spy satellites and the International Space Station (pictured)?
• I need to amend the article to defend ALT2 but it's slightly more interesting.
• ALT3: ... that Russian satellite Luch 5B has a radio laser device?
• ALT4: ... that satellite Luch 5B will relay data from passing Russian spy satellites?
• Like ALT2 I need to amend the article. Secretlondon (talk) 22:14, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

• Comment: DYK rules state that only licensed images that appear in the nominated article are eligible, so that eliminates the space station one and the second of the two Luch 5A ones as well. I think it would likely be confusing to have a hook about 5B, but show a picture of 5A. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:32, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

That's fine. Secretlondon (talk) 22:57, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, neutral, sourced, no copyvio, so GTG. I say drop the pic but go with the original hook. Aymatth2 (talk) 18:49, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
