Storyline


China has always been committed to international cooperation in its space program, an official with China National Space Administration (CNSA) said in Beijing on Monday.

Wu Yanhua, deputy director of CNSA, told reporters at a news briefing on the Chang'e-4 mission that it has involved a lot of international cooperation.

Wu, who is also deputy head of China Lunar Exploration Program, said, "China has always followed the principle of openness and cooperation in its space programs. The Chang'e-4 probe is equipped with 13 payloads, four of which are in cooperation with Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia. It also takes a lunar micro-satellite Longjiang."

He continued, "The Chinese deep space station located in Argentina has participated in the Telemetry, Tracking and Control (TTC) mission. The radioisotope heat source in collaboration with Russia will guarantee the safety of the Chang'e-4 probe over the lunar night. The European Space Agency also provides TTC support. China and the United States also engage in active cooperation, with the U.S. Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter in lunar orbit used to observe the Chang'e-4 probe."

China announced Friday that the Chang'e-4 mission, which realized the first-ever soft-landing on the far side of the Moon, was a complete success.

Wu said in details what the mission has achieved for the first time.

"The mission has realized several firsts. It is the first soft-landing and cruise exploration of the far side of the Moon, the first relay and TTC communications between the far side of the Moon and the Earth, and the first ultra-low frequency scientific exploration by the lander on the far side of the Moon and the lunar orbiting micro-satellite. The mission also marks world-class technology of the multiple but narrow launch windows, and orbit injection accuracy of the launch vehicle. The mission also means the first use of laser ranging technology experiment beyond the Earth-Moon distance, the first biological science demonstration on lunar surface and the first international payloads cooperation and joint exploration," he said.

Wu said he appreciated the international community's congratulations on China's lunar program progress.

"Some international organizations, space agencies, space science institutions, some foreign heads of state, governmental officials, and friends who care about China's space programs have extended their congratulations in different ways. Simonetta Di Pippo, director of the UN Office for Outer Space Affairs, said the Chang'e-4 mission marks an incredible milestone in the history of space activities. This is not only a great success for China, but also a big stride for the international space community," said Wu.

The Chang'e-4 probe touched down on the Von Karman Crater in the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) Basin on the far side of the Moon on Jan. 3, with the rover driving onto the lunar surface late that night.

With the assistance of the relay satellite Queqiao (Magpie Bridge), the rover Yutu-2 (Jade Rabbit-2) and the lander of the Chang'e-4 probe took photos of each other.

The scientific instruments aboard the probe worked well, and the images taken by the probe and detection data have been sent back to ground control, said CNSA.
