China Successfully Lands Probe on the Far Side of the Moon

China Successfully Lands Probe on the Far Side of the Moon0China’s Chang’e 6 successfully landed on the far side of the Moon on June 1, making history. The lunar probe sent Earth a video of the landing in the rarely explored region.

Launched on May 3, the probe will collect and bring approximately 2 kg of lunar soil and rocks to Earth. It is China’s second soft landing on the Moon’s far side. No other country has reached this part of the Moon before.

The mission will help scientists understand the differences between the Moon’s near and far sides. Future missions, Chang’e 7 and 8, will explore the Moon’s south pole and potential water resources.
