Supported by communication via the Queqiao-2 relay satellite, the lander-ascender perfectly touched down in the South Pole-Aitken Basin—an area rich in scientific intrigue. This milestone marked the first-ever landing and exploration mission on the lunar far side. Yes, China has long since also orbited and mapped Mars as well as landing a rover there but that was much simpler of a task in comparison. The Queqiao-2 relay satellite was the second of the communications relay and radio astronomy satellites designed to support the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program, after Queqiao-1 launched in 2018. The Queqiao-2 relay satellite went into an elliptical frozen orbit around the Moon to support communications from the far side of the Moon and the Lunar south pole. The Chang'e-6 mission successfully returned ...
