At 21:11 on December 14, 2013, the Chang'e-3 probe successfully landed on the moon, marking the first time that a Chinese probe landed on an extraterrestrial object, which was another major breakthrough in China's aerospace field and an important milestone in China's aerospace history.
The successful landing of the Chang'e-3 probe on the moon marks an important breakthrough in the second step of China's three-step strategic goal of "orbiting, landing, and returning" of China's lunar exploration program, and lays a solid foundation for China's future deep space exploration and manned lunar landing missions.
The Chang'e-3 probe consists of a lander and a rover, the lander is responsible for a soft landing on the lunar surface, and carries out in-situ exploration and automatic roving surveyThe rover is responsible for patrolling and probing the surface of the moon. The successful landing of the Chang'e-3 probe on the moon has achieved China's first soft landing on the moon and lunar surface patrol exploration, opening a new chapter in Chinese exploration of the moon.
In the Chang'e-3 mission, the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation undertook the development and launch of the probe. In order to ensure the successful landing of the Chang'e-3 probe on the moon, China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation has carried out meticulous preparations and tests, and overcame a series of technical problems, including lunar soft landing technology, lunar surface patrol technology, deep space tracking and control technology, etc.
The successful landing of the Chang'e-3 probe on the moon is another major achievement made by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation in the lunar exploration project, and it is also an important milestone in the development of China's aerospace industry.
