Note also that the Chinese lunar orbiting satellites DSLWP-A and DSLWP-B (launched May 20, 2018) have been given new OSCAR designations as follows: DSLWP-A is now Lunar OSCAR-93 (LO-93) DSLWP-B is now Lunar OSCAR-94 (LO-94) LO-93 (DSLWP-A) was lost after one day in orbit but signals were heard from it Thanks to Drew Glasbrenner, KO4MA (OSCAR Number Administrator)
LO-93 and LO-94 do not have NORAD CAT ID's since they orbit the moon and are NOT included in the AMSAT-NA TLE distribution (Just point your antenna at the moon )
