Guo Haichao wrote in the People's Daily that China’s lunar exploration program has achieved significant progress. The Chang'e series of missions have evolved from lunar orbit mapping to soft landing on the far side of the Moon, with successful sample return. Especially, Chang'e 6 achieved the world's first sample collection from the far side of the Moon, attracting international scientific attention. China plans to achieve crewed lunar landings before 2030, with the development of key systems steadily advancing. Meanwhile, commercial spaceflight efforts have joined in, with the Hainan commercial space launch site now operational, and the space industry chain expanding in scale. The lunar exploration project not only demonstrates China’s technological strength but also embodies the spirit of collaborative innovation and international cooperation, making important contributions to human lunar scientific knowledge.
