China’s new mission will also carry Pakistani satellite to moon


 ISLAMABAD: China’s new mission to the moon, Cheng E6, will also carry a Pakistani satellite to the moon.

The China Public Space Organization (CNSA) has expressed in an explanation on the web-based entertainment webpage Waco that the Chang'e 6 mission will be sent off to the moon in the principal half of 2024. The mission will convey payloads to the moon from Pakistan, European Space Office, France and Italy.

The Chang’e 6 mission will carry French instruments that will test for radioactive gas. Similarly, the European Space Agency’s Negative Ion Detector and Italy’s Valle Brett Radar System will also be taken to the moon by this mission.

According to the statement, Pakistan’s satellite named CubeSat will also be sent to the moon’s orbit. It said that China is accelerating the International Lunar Research Station project. More international partnerships are expected to follow.

The CNSA said the mission will convey payloads and satellites from four nations to increment worldwide participation. The Chang'e-6 mission will head out to the clouded side of the moon and gather tests from the surface and return to Earth.

As per CNSA, this will be the initial occasion when tests from the clouded side of the moon will be taken back to Earth. Prior, such missions had gathered examples from the close to surface of the moon. As indicated by the proclamation, the motivation behind the mission is to gather tests from various pieces of the moon to accumulate more insights regarding its age. After Chang’e 6, China’s Chang’e 7 robotic mission will be sent to the moon’s south pole.


The mission will look for signs of ice there while also examining the region’s atmosphere and weather.

The Chang’e 8 mission will conclude the Chang’e missions that will be sent there to possibly establish a research station. It should be noted that in 2013, China’s Chang’e-5 mission collected samples from the moon and brought them to the earth, thus becoming the third country in the world to do so after the United States and Russia.
