Rock Samples Return!

China: Chang’e-6 Lunar Module Safely Returns Dark-Side Rock Samples! (26.6.2024)

Lunar samples brought by the earlier Chang’e-5 mission have already drawn applications for access from international scholars, with the process well underway. The Chang’e-6 lunar probe carried four international payloads that were developed jointly by Chinese and foreign scientists. It is conceivable that the openness of Chinese lunar exploration activities will be mirrored in the study of Chang’e-6 lunar samples, said Yang.

The lunar scientific community and the entire humankind are anticipated to reap the rewards of collaborative efforts undertaken by international scientists from a wide range of geographical and disciplinary backgrounds, Yang added.

Zhang Kejian, head of the CNSA, said that exploring the vast universe is a common dream for all of humanity, and only open cooperation is the right path. China’s space endeavors will adhere to the principles of equality and mutual benefit, peaceful utilization, and inclusive development.

China's Socialist Technology Triumphs!

Socialist China: Humanity’s First Photographs of Moon’s Dark-Side! (4.6.2024)

Apollo 11, for instance, possessed a computer similar to that which operates most ordinary washing machines (the washing machine is believed to have positively altered human society to a far greater extent than the internet). The internet started as a US attempt to use telephone technology as a “spying” device in every room of the world. The idea was to develop a unifying computer technology which linked all telephones together so that they become, whether in use or not as an analogue communication device, a transmitter of all noise operating around or within the local vacinity (a function unknown to the owner) – broadcasting all this data to a Central Listening Headquarters in the US. A similar situation exists today – with all your emails, posts and other written sources of data uploaded onto the internet. All is observed, recorded and filed away by your National Governments – which report to the US.

Samples from Dark-Side Returns!

China: Spacecraft Returns with first Samples from Lunar Far-Side! (4.6.2024)

The control system of Chang’e-6 has also been enhanced to improve its autonomy, enabling it to complete lunar take-off and ascent with reduced reliance on the Queqiao-2 relay satellite and ground support, said Huang Hao, another space expert from the CASC.

The ascender is expected to carry out unmanned rendezvous and docking with the orbiter-returner combination in lunar orbit, and the samples will be transferred to the returner.

The orbiter-returner combination will orbit the moon, awaiting the optimal time to transfer back to Earth. When it approaches Earth, the returner carrying the lunar samples will re-enter the atmosphere, aiming for a touchdown at Siziwang Banner in north China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the CNSA said.
