Chinese Chang’e-6 to bring lunar samples back

China National Space Administration has informed that its Chang’e-6 lunar probe had landed on Sunday (2nd June, 2024) in the immense South Pole-Aitken Basin, one of the largest known impact craters in the solar system, from where it will bring the samples back to Earth.

It is pertinent to mention here that Chang’e-6 is on a technically complex 53-day mission (that began on 3rd May) and the mud/rocks it will bring will be the first such samples collected from that region of moon.
