- BREAKING: China’s Queqiao-2 communications relay satellite entered lunar orbit March 24, paving the way for a lunar far side sample return mission.
Queqiao-2 began a 19-minute-long braking burn at 12:46 p.m. Eastern Sunday (1646 UTC), allowing the spacecraft to be captured by the moon’s gravity, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) announced early March 25.
The spacecraft is expected to have entered an initial 200 by 100,000-kilometer lunar orbit. Operators will further alter its orbit and inclination to bring Queqiao-2 into a 200 by 16,000-km, highly-elliptical “frozen” orbit.

An incredible milestone of an ambitious mission. The world is watching in awe.
It didn't waste any time to reach orbit soon it will get down to business. kudos china. picture perfect execution of a complex mission.
The western MSM will not report on this.
A Chinese Utuber with inside information said Chang'e 6 will be launched in early May.
great news. thanks
This mission is to get some samples from the moon in the far side and near the south pole. The near future plan (within 10 years from now) is to build a moon base and send astronauts back and forth regularly to mine useful materials.
Go China. Go chang’e-6. Go Queqiao-2.
Most likely Chang’e 6 will be launched in April since the relayed satellite 🛰️ Queqiao2 is in orbit and functional.
Chinag'e-6 isn't due until May.
Glad Queqiao II and company are performing well and according to pre planned orbit❤ thx POV
You’re welcome.
Magnificient!
Go China.
India' s rockets are not so powerful. That's why Indian spacecraft take 42 days to reach on the orbit moon
Ah! Then they will tell you we are cheap to fly😂
Again, India and South Korea are the two most powerful nations of the whole universe, famous for curry and kimchi
