For the first time in history, a mobile probe is active on the far side of the Moon.
At 10:22 p.m. Beijing time yesterday (Thursday January 3), China’s Jade Rabbit 2 rover touched the Moon’s soft, snow-like surface after slowly rolling down a track extending from the Chang’e 4 lander, according to state broadcaster CCTV, and as relayed by the Associated Press. The rover was deployed about 10 hours after the Chang’e 4 spacecraft landed on the Moon.
It’s now the first time in history that a mobile probe is active on the far side of the Moon—a huge accomplishment for the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the nation’s burgeoning space program.
“It’s a small step for the rover, but one giant leap for the Chinese nation,” Wu Weiren, the chief designer of the Lunar Exploration Project, told CCTV. “This giant leap is a decisive move for our exploration of space and the conquering of the universe.”
Bombastic words, to be sure, but the true meaning of this statement is likely lost in translation; by “conquering” the universe, Wu is likely speaking of humanity’s growing mastery over nature, and not some kind of plan to assemble a galactic-scale empire. At least we hope.
