According to China’s state-run Huanchusbao on the 17th, CNSA stores samples collected from the moon at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Observatory in Beijing, and some of them are located in Xiaoshan, Hunan Province, the hometown of Mao Zedong. He said he had decided to keep it.
CNSA Deputy Director and Deputy Director of the Lunar Exploration Project, Wu Yanhua said, “We used the astronomical observatory as the main storage location for moon samples, and Mao Zedong’s hometown, Xiaoshan, as the disaster preparedness storage location. It was in honor of the great man who said that I will win (可上九天攬月).”
The expression “flying to the heavens and picking the moon” is a phrase originally from the poem of Li Baek, a Chinese poet of the Tang Dynasty, but it is known that Mao Zedong used it in his poetry to represent Mao Zedong. Among the past leaders of China, Mao Zedong is regarded as a person with a strong commitment to space development. The Xi Jinping leadership has been using Mao Zedong and his ideas in public opinion wars promoting space excavation.
Meanwhile, the return plane of Changeo 5 announced that it landed at Sutsuwang in the northern part of China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region a little after 2am (3am Korean time) on the 17th.
The sample in the return period contains about 2 kg of soil and rocks collected from the vicinity of the’Mons R?mker’ mountain range in the’Puk Pung Sea’ in the northwestern part of the moon.
It has been 44 years since the Soviet space probe Luna 24 in 1976 that humans brought samples of the soil of the moon.
In addition, the samples brought to Earth by Changeo 5 were produced in a shorter time than those previously collected, and scientists are expected to better understand geological conditions such as volcanic activity.
