Part 4/6:
In another realm of competition, the race for space exploration marks another highlight of China's advancements. With the latest mission, Chang'e 6, China has successfully returned the first samples from the far side of the Moon. These lunar explorations place China firmly on the map as a major player in the current era of space exploration.
Looking ahead, China has several ambitious missions planned. The Chang'e 7 mission, slated for 2026, will aim to investigate frozen ice located at the Moon's South Pole, while the Chang'e 8 mission, planned for 2035, will focus on lunar resource utilization experiments. These endeavors are part of an overarching strategy to deepen Chinese involvement in space and solidify its standing as a formidable space power.
