China launched its second mission to the far side of the Moon. If successful, it will be the world’s first mission to bring back samples from the far side of the Moon.
Chang’e-6 mission is a 53-day-long mission. After reaching the Moon’s orbit, the mission’s orbiter will circle the natural satellite while its lander will descend into the 2,500-kilometer-wide South Pole-Aitken basin on the lunar surface.
The Moon’s far side is often referred to as the dark side because it cannot be seen from the Earth. Due to tidal locking with Earth, only one side of the Moon, known as the near side, is observable from our planet.
Chandrayaan-4 is the first step towards achieving the goal of India landing an astronaut on the moon in 2040.
