What is the lunar exploration project in China called?

China's lunar exploration program is called Chang 'e Project.

The Chang 'e project is divided into three stages: unmanned lunar exploration, manned lunar landing and the establishment of a lunar base. The main task is to obtain three-dimensional images of the lunar surface, analyze the distribution characteristics of useful elements and material types on the lunar surface, detect the characteristics of lunar soil and detect the space environment of the earth and the moon.

65438+In the early morning of February 65438+July 2020, Chang 'e V returned to Earth with lunar samples, which was another feat written by the people of China in the 60-year history of human lunar exploration, marking the overall victory of the three-step battle of "winding, falling and returning" for China's lunar exploration project. In March 2023, Tian Wen No.2 mission was officially approved by the state. It is planned to return to Earth from the near-earth asteroid 20/KOOC-0/6O3 by one launch, and then go to the main belt comet 3/KOOC-0//KOOC-0/P for accompanying flight detection.

The first detector

Moon 1 is the first interstellar probe successfully launched by the Soviet Union and human beings. It is the first member of a series of probes named after the moon.

Before the launch of Lunar 1, the Soviet Space Agency made three attempts to send special envoys to the moon. Less than a year after the successful launch of the first artificial satellite, he continued this more difficult space activity, on the one hand, because Khrushchev encouraged the space race for the purpose of launching a propaganda war with the United States, and on the other hand, because korolev, the head of the Soviet space program, was full of confidence in the ability of the rocket he developed.

A rocket used to launch the moon 1 is called a lunar rocket. This is actually an improved version of the satellite rocket.

1 959 65438+1On October 2, the moon1was successfully launched from the Baikonur launch site in the Soviet Union and then left Earth orbit. This makes it the first spacecraft successfully launched by human beings to get rid of the earth's gravitational field. 1 959 65438+1On October 4th, the moon1passed the moon 5995 kilometers away. The ultimate fate of the moon 1 is to become the first man-made planet, which will revolve around the sun forever in a period of 450 days.
