China Is Planning To Launch Its Own Artificial Moon Into Orbit by sirlegend: 6:29pm On Dec 14, 2018
Chinese Space Agency (CNSA) ,on a mission to be the first to land a rover on the far side (dark side) of the Moon, successfully launched the Chang’e-4 spacecraft from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan province on 8 December for a 110-hour 238,855 miles (384,400 km) journey to the moon.

The dark side (or far side) is located on the side of the Moon that never faces Earth. It is an intriguing region which no rover has ever landed on. The Soviet Luna 3 mission only took its grainy photographs in 1959 while the US NASA’s Ranger spacecraft had only flybys.

If successful, the Chang’e 4 lander and rover spacecraft will be China’s second spacecraft to land on the moon, after the Chang’e-3 landed on the moon’s near side in 2013.
