China’s Chang’e-6 lunar probe just pulled off a sci-fi movie move, landing on the moon’s mysterious far side Sunday to collect samples—and the world’s science community is cheering. 🚀 Scientists from France, Italy, Pakistan, and the European Space Agency (ESA) thanked China for turning this mission into a global science party, with four international payloads hitching a ride to unlock lunar secrets.
High-tech gadgets onboard include:
France’s DORN (detecting radioactive moon gas 🌫️)
ESA’s NILS (tracking solar wind particles 🔋)
Italy’s laser mirror for Earth-Moon FaceTime 📡
Pakistan’s ICUBE-Q satellite (moon selfie cam 📸)
This collab isn’t just about rocks—it’s humanity’s latest group project to decode how water and gases move on the moon. 🌍✨ 'More hands make lighter work,' said one researcher, highlighting how shared tech accelerates space breakthroughs.
Fun fact: The Pakistani satellite already snapped stunning moon pics after separating from Chang’e-6’s orbiter in May. 📡👀
