China Launches Moon Probe To Bring Back Lunar Rocks

2021-01-01T01:24:01Z

A Long March 5 rocket launched China's Chang'e-5 probe on its mission to retrieve lunar rocks and soil China on Tuesday launched an unmanned spacecraft to bring back lunar rocks -- the first attempt by any nation to retrieve samples from the Moon in four decades. A Long March 5 rocket carrying the Chang'e-5 probe, named after the mythical Chinese moon goddess, blasted off from the Wenchang Space Center on the southern island province of Hainan at 4:30 am (2030 GMT Monday), the official Xinhua news agency reported. Beijing is pouring billions into its military-run space programme, with hopes of having a crewed space station by 2022 and of eventually sending humans to the Moon. The mission's goal is to shovel up lunar rocks and soil to help scientists learn about the Moon's origins, formation and volcanic activity on its surface. The original mission, planned for 2017, was delayed due to an engine failure in the Long March 5 rocket. If successful, China will be only the third country to have retrieved samples from the Moon, following the United States and the Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s. The Chinese probe will collect two kilograms (4.5 pounds) of surface material in a previously unexplored area known as Oceanus Procellarum -- or "Ocean of Storms" -- which consist of a vast lava plain, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/du-lich-trung-quoc-gia-re/ tour trung quoc] according to the science journal Nature. The probe is expected to land in late November and collect material during one lunar day -- equivalent to around 14 Earth days. The samples will then be returned to Earth in a capsule programmed to land in northern China's Inner Mongolia region in early December, according to US space agency NASA. The mission is technically challenging and involves several innovations not seen during previous attempts at collecting moon rocks, said Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the [http://wideinfo.org/?s=Harvard-Smithsonian%20Center Harvard-Smithsonian Center] for Astrophysics. "The US never did a robotic sample return. The Soviet one was very limited and could only land at certain restricted spots," McDowell told AFP. "China's system will be the most flexible and capable robotic sample return system yet." A Chinese lunar rover landed on the far side of the Moon in January 2019, in a global first that boosted Beijing's ambitions to become a space superpower. It was the second Chinese probe to land on the Moon, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/du-lich-trung-quoc-gia-re/ kynghidongduong.vn] following the Yutu ("Jade Rabbit") rover mission in 2013. The latest Chang'e-5 probe is among a slew of ambitious targets set by Beijing, which include creating a super-powerful rocket capable of delivering payloads heavier than those NASA and private rocket firm SpaceX can handle, a lunar base, a permanently crewed space station, and a Mars rover.

See The Rarest Primate On Earth Cross A Rope Bridge That Could Help It Survive

id="article-body" class="row" section="article-body"> Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden In a nature reserve in China, wild gibbons have been swinging and climbing their way across a rope bridge. It seems like a pastime any primate would embrace. But the bridge isn't there for ape amusement. It's there to help a critically endangered species survive. The Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) faces a high threat of extinction due to habitat loss and hunting, with only about 30 of the animals alive today, [ according to the Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden], a Hong Kong conservation group that's spearheaded an effort to preserve the primates. The group just published a study, [ in the journal Scientific Reports], detailing how the gibbons, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/du-lich-trung-quoc-gia-re/ kynghidongduong.vn] considered the rarest primate on Earth, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/du-lich-trung-quoc-gia-re/ tour trung quốc giá rẻ] have reacted to the first artificial canopy bridge installed to help them traverse forest gaps that can impact their dispersal, foraging and even breeding opportunities. Deforestation, typhoons and landslides can all fragment forests, making it difficult for primates to navigate their environment like usual. CNET Science From the lab to your inbox. Get the latest science stories from CNET every week. "While restoring natural forest corridors should be a priority conservation intervention, artificial canopy bridges may be a useful short-term solution," the authors write. Conservationists installed the two-pronged 52-foot (16 meter) bridge in 2015, tying mountaineering-strength ropes to sturdy trees so the apes could pass at the site of a typhoon-induced landslide, and installing a camera to document use of the crossing in both directions. The gibbons had difficulty crossing the area of the landslide using fronds and leaves. And while larger males were able to leap over widely spaced trees, that method proved risky for hesitant pregnant females or those carrying infants. Now playing: Watch this: Watch an endangered primate cross a rope bridge like... 0:34 Once the simple canopy bridge was in place at the Hainan Bawangling National Nature Reserve, photographs showed it took the gibbons a little over six months to begin crossing it, gradually increasing its use in the following years. Adult females initiated half the crossings, and juveniles tackled the other half. Most gibbons got across by "handrailing" -- walking on one rope with hands holding the second rope as handrails, or climbing underneath the ropes legs first with all limbs. At least one brazen beast walked it like a tightrope. The ape version of Philippe Petit. Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden Various types of artificial crossings have helped wildlife traverse ruptured forest canopies before, but the study in Scientific Reports documents the first one constructed for the Hainan gibbon, a species endemic to China's Hainan Island and known for singing to mark territory, enhance bonding and attract mates. "Over 2,000 individuals were estimated to live throughout the island in the 1950s, but due to rampant poaching and forest loss, the population declined sharply to less than 10 individuals in the 1970s" before a determined effort got the number up to 30, Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden says. As of 2020, the Hainan is the only gibbon species assessed by the [ International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species] to have a stable population, according to Kadoorie, adding "all 19 other species are decreasing in numbers." The researchers consider the canopy bridge, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/du-lich-trung-quoc-gia-re/ tour trung quoc] while promising, a temporary solution. After constructing it, Kadoorie launched a [https://www.academia.edu/people/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=reforestation reforestation] project at the site of the landslide.
