  • Echolance - it will be very difficult to find information about this spacecraft: "The Echolance is a type of spacecraft designed in 1949 by a Dr. Robert Duncan-Enzmann. It is a presumably feasible concept, but little else is available on the subject.", from [http://www.shortopedia.com/P/R/Proposed_spacecraft Shortopedia]; other potential source only repeat this information; Xionbox₪ 12:06, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Sol Cazador
  • Triton Ocean World Surveyor is currently a redirect to a stub on another page of a Neptune Mission. I think it's worthy enough to be it's own article, Due to heavy focus on Triton instead of Neptune with it's own goals.https://science.nasa.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/t-ows-triton-ocean-worlds-surveyor.pdf I have also made a template of it on my Sandbox page, So feel free to take a look at it here IowaBird (talk) 08:37, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
