China Dark Side


Fascinating event happened earlier this week:

Just before 10:30 am Beijing local time on January 3, the robotic spacecraft Chang’e 4 made a soft landing in the South Pole-Aitken Basin area of the moon, otherwise known as the “far side” or “dark side” of Earth’s only natural satellite.

It is the first spacecraft in history to attempt or achieve a landing on this unexplored area, which is never visible from Earth.



I had no idea that no one had ever tried a landing on the "dark side" before.

It's gonna start sending back pictures, I guess.

Hope it brought some lighting.


Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
