China has landed a spacecraft on the moon’s far side to collect samples that could provide insights into differences between the less-explored region and the better-known near side.
The mission is the sixth in the Chang’e moon exploration program, which is named after a Chinese moon goddess. It is the second designed to bring back samples, following the Chang’e 5, which did so from the near side in 2020.
