All about the Chinese lunar exploration program(Chang'e) and news.
Chang'e 5: the Long March 5 launcher delays the mission.
The content of the Chang'e 8 mission is still unclear.
The last Chinese lunar mission, Chang'e 3, took place in 2013.
Chang'e should therefore become the most ambitious Chinese lunar mission yet.

The Chinese Space Agency(CNSA) has successfully launched the Chang'e 4 mission to the Moon.
But we did not have much information on the next steps of the Chang'e program.
During its first lunar night, Chang'e 4 went into hibernation,
relying on internal heat sources to survive.
The continuation of the Chang'e program also depends on the success of the Chang‘e 5 mission.
China's Chang'e 4 lander and Yutu 2 rover,
photographed by each other on the moon's far side.
Shortly afterward the probe, named after the Chinese moon goddess Chang'e, sent back the first spectacular images.
The Chinese lunar exploration program Chang'e has already sent two orbiters and a rover to the moon.
Chang'e 6 has been thought as a twin
mission of Chang'e 5, that is, lunar samples collection and return.
News of November 5, 2019- The Chinese space agency
will postpone its lunar samples return mission, called Chang'e 5.
Chang'e is a fitting name for a series of robots
that have gazed down upon our planet from far above.
This means that the new Tiangong 3 space station and the Chang'e 5 lunar return mission will
also be delayed.
Seeing that Chang'e felt extremely miserable over her loss of immortality, Houyi
decided to find the pill that would restore it.
Chang'e 4 is an improved version of Chang'e 3,
which is the first Chinese probe to have landed on the moon.
The ExoMars program rover, Rosalind Franklin,
will take off in 2020 on the same launch window as the Chinese mission Chang'e 5.
China's National Space Administration(CNSA) announced that Chang'e 4 touched the surface on the other side of the moon and sent photos.
In a certain way, Chang'e 4 is also an inhabited mission
because a small contener embeds potato seeds, plants and eggs of silkworms.
The Chang'e program began on Oct. 24,
2007, when a Long March 3A rocket launched the Chang'e-1 probe into a polar lunar orbit.
