China’s Chang’e 6 mission has successfully returned to Earth with the first-ever lunar far side samples. The return capsule, carrying up to 2 kilograms of material, has been opened in Beijing and the samples will now be analyzed and distributed for research.
China has achieved a groundbreaking feat in space exploration by successfully retrieving the first lunar samples from the moon’s far side. The Chang’e-6 mission, launched earlier this month, collected samples from the challenging and less-explored region and brought them back to Earth on June 25th. The mission has opened new avenues for scientific research, providing insights into the moon’s history and geology.
