"Chinese scientists have said that samples from different ages are needed to form a complete picture of the moon's history. Through analysis, they think the samples we will collect from the northwest region of Oceanus Procellarum are relatively young. By combining those samples with the previous ones, we will have a better understanding of the moon's formation and evolution."

Storyline


China's Chang'e-5 lunar probe successfully completed its second braking Sunday evening, entering a circular lunar orbit above the moon as it prepares for landing, according to the China National Space Administration.

The lunar probe carried out its second brake at 20:23 on Sunday. This followed its first braking one day earlier, which took place at a position about 400 kilometers above the moon, enabling it to be captured by the moon's gravitational field and fly in an elliptical lunar orbit.

Over the next week, the probe, composed of four parts—the orbiter, lander, ascender and returner—will perform multiple complicated tasks on a tight schedule.

The four parts will separate into two pairs. The lander and ascender will head to the moon and get samples, while the orbiter and returner will continue to fly around the moon and adjust to a designated orbit, getting ready for docking with the ascender.

Chang'e-5's landing site will be in the northwest region of Oceanus Procellarum, also known as the Ocean of Storms, which has a relatively young age of 3.2 billion to 4 billion years old.

Before the Chang'e-5 mission, humans had collected about 380 kilograms of samples from Mare Tranquillitatis and Mare Fecunditatis in the southeast region of the moon, so the samples to be collected by Chang'e-5 will help scientists have a more comprehensive understanding of the moon.

"Chinese scientists have said that samples from different ages are needed to form a complete picture of the moon's history. Through analysis, they think the samples we will collect from the northwest region of Oceanus Procellarum are relatively young. By combining those samples with the previous ones, we will have a better understanding of the moon's formation and evolution," said Peng Jing, deputy chief designer of the Chang'e-5 probe from the China Academy of Space Technology under the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.

As the largest lunar mare, the Oceanus Procellarum is about 2,500 kilometers from north to south, covering an area of about 4 million square kilometers, a region no other probes have ever reached before.

"From the perspective of technological development, it is not only about bringing back samples, but also allowing scientists to better understand the moon. In terms of engineering technology, it is also very important for our country to carry out further space exploration tasks. I think it marks a milestone," Peng added.

Chang'e-5 is one of the most complicated and challenging missions in China's aerospace history, as well as the world's first moon-sample mission in more than 40 years.
