Editing List of artificial objects on the Moon

{{Short description|none}}
[[File:Map of artificial objects on the Moon.svg|thumb|310x310px|A map depicting all known locations of artificial objects on the Moon from 1959 to 2024.]]

This is a partial list of artificial materials left on the [[Moon]], many during the missions of the [[Apollo program]]. The table below does not include lesser Apollo mission artificial objects, such as a hammer and other tools, [[Laser Ranging Retroflector|retroreflectors]], [[Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package]]s, or the commemorative, artistic, and personal objects left by the twelve [[Project Apollo|Apollo]] [[astronauts]], such as the [[Lunar Flag Assembly|United States flags]], the [[Lunar plaque|commemorative plaques]] attached to the ladders of the six [[Apollo Lunar Module]]s, the silver [[astronaut pin]] left by [[Alan Bean]] in honor of [[Clifton C. Williams]] whom he replaced, the [[Bible]] left by [[David Scott]], the ''[[Fallen Astronaut]]'' statuette and memorial plaque placed by the crew of [[Apollo 15]], the [[Apollo 11 goodwill messages]] disc, or the golf balls<ref>{{Cite web |last=Miller |first=Scott |date=2023-06-02 |title=How Many Golf Balls Are On The Moon? |url=https://golfercraze.com/how-many-golf-balls-are-on-the-moon/ |access-date=2023-06-21 |website=golfercraze.com |language=en-US}}</ref> [[Alan Shepard]] hit during an [[Apollo 14]] moonwalk.

Five [[S-IVB]] third stages of [[Saturn V]] rockets from the Apollo program crashed into the Moon, and are the heaviest human-made objects on the lunar surface. Humans have left over {{convert|187,400|kg|lb}} of material on the Moon. Besides the 2019 [[Chang'e 4]] and [[Smart Lander for Investigating Moon|SLIM]] missions, the only artificial objects on the Moon that are still in use are the retroreflectors for the [[Lunar Laser Ranging experiment]]s left there by the [[Apollo 11]], 14, and 15 astronauts, [[Chandrayaan-3]] lunar lander, and by the Soviet Union's [[Lunokhod 1]] and [[Lunokhod 2]] missions.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=aq_uDo2shjAC&pg=PA300 Slava G. Turyshev – ''From Quantum to Cosmos: Fundamental Physics Research in Space'' (2009) – Page 300]</ref>

Objects at greater than 90 degrees east or west are on the [[far side of the Moon]], including [[Ranger 4]], [[Lunar Orbiter 1]], [[Lunar Orbiter 2]], [[Lunar Orbiter 3]], [[Chang'e 4]] lander and ''[[Yutu-2]]'' rover.

Because of increasing numbers of missions to and objects at the Moon, a global registry of lunar activities has been proposed in 2023 by the [[Open Lunar Foundation]].<ref name="Open Lunar Foundation 2023">{{cite web | title=Launch Event Video: Bright Moon - Creating a Global Registry of Lunar Activities April 23 | website=Open Lunar Foundation | date=2023-05-08 | url=https://www.openlunar.org/library/launch-event-bright-moon | access-date=2023-06-14}}</ref>

<!-- 
XXXX-XX-XX: total mass is 163,648 + 127 + 127 + 1000, where 1254 was added to match masses reported in the three Luna program sample return mission articles
YYYY-YY-YY: Mass adjusted by (-2249 + 2270 + 700) to reflect actual masses of LCROSS Centaur and spacecraft - ~~~~ 
2013-12-16: New mass after [[Chang'e 3]] is 178,796 + 1,200 = 179,996
2020-12-06: The mass of Chang'e 5 can't be determined and is calculated based on total mass, including orbiter. 191,012+8,200 = 199,212. More accurate data pending.
2024-01-19: To prevent approximation errors the stats post-SLIM landing have been updated by adding the dry mass of SLIM at launch (which includes the two rovers) and not the individual masses of each spacecraft, despite them being available
2024-02-22: Added IM-1 and EagleCam mass
2024-04-27: Chang'e 6 mass added as Chang'e 5
2025-01-15: Added Hakuto-R Mission 2 composite, IM-2 composite and Blue Ghost M1 mass
