China's Chang'e-6 probe has made history by capturing the first-ever images from the far side of the moon, following its successful landing on June 2. The China National Space Administration (CNSA) released these breathtaking visuals on Tuesday, showcasing three snapshots taken during the landing process and a panoramic view of the surrounding lunar landscape.
Ren Xin, a researcher from the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC), shared insights with China Media Group (CMG): \"The panoramic image reveals a remarkably flat landing area, confirming a well-chosen and safe location. In the distance, we can observe mountains and the edges of craters within the Apollo Basin that extend beyond the landing site.\"
These images not only highlight the technical prowess of the Chang'e-6 mission but also provide valuable data for future lunar explorations. The successful deployment on the far side of the moon opens up new possibilities for scientific research and international collaboration in space.
