FfFfFfFF 58,120 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 An unmanned Chinese spacecraft carrying rocks and soil from the moon returned safely to Earth early on Thursday (local time) in the first mission in four decades to collect lunar samples, the Xinhua news agency said. The capsule carrying the samples collected by the Chang’e-5 space probe landed in northern China’s Inner Mongolia region, Xinhua said, quoting the China National Space Administration (CNSA). The director of CNSA, Zhang Kejian, declared the mission a success, Xinhua added. Scientists hope the samples will help them learn about the moon’s origins, formation and volcanic activity on its surface. Xinhua described the mission as one of the most challenging and complicated in China’s aerospace history. The probe comprised separate craft to get to the moon, land on it and collect the samples, get back up and then return the rocks and soil to Earth. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/dec/16/chinese-spacecraft-carrying-rocks-and-soil-from-the-moon-returns-safely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
