Four thousand years ago, Chang'e the daughter of Diku (great grandson of Yellow Emperor), wife of Houyi (who shot down 9 suns with a bow leaving 1 to cool the Earth), stole the pill of immortality and was banished to the moon by goddess Wangmu (who meant the pills for Houyi). She is immortal and lives on the moon, taking a large rabbit with her named Yutu. 

If you like this story, you will like the fifth mission named after her, is planning to return 2kg of soil back to Earth from the youngest part of the moon. It has two weeks to do this or the probe will die in the lunar night.

Is Diku some sort of Chinese ancient religion?

 

Will China claim the moon next?

帝喾is a real person. Wangmu is the highest goddess in Daoism, China's nativist religion. 

It will not claim the moon if no one else claims the moon. What would be the point, am I right?

yes I think so. the gods in there are all kind of frenemies, and they cross back or forth with the mortal world.

Do the Chinese still believe in Daoism today?

Unfortunately it's on the sidelines. Buddhism, Christianity, Marxism (among state intellectuals) dominate now in Chinese areas. There are many TV and movie themes that feature Daoist elements, but it isn't any organized religion like the foreign religions. There's just one Daoist shrine in all of China, compared to more than 10,000 mosques.

 

 

This is the best heavily Daoist show in recent years. It got pulled before they even finished airing wiped from all internet archives, f***ing Marxists are crazy.

fake..... looks like a video game. You mean to tell me, that the astronauts could not take a selfie in space? sounds very fishy to me.

one time a western journalist, maybe not unlike yourself, asked the exhibition in north korea, is this satellite real? the tour guide replied with an offer, would you like to be strapped to the rocket the next time, to see if it is real?

Landing site being recreated exactly.

This is a much bigger lander than Chang'e 3 and 4, it could only have been done on the new CZ5 rocket.

It's for planetary science. The moon has no erosion so it has record of early solar system. This part being sampled right now, is the last part of the moon to cool. Maybe we can explain if moon was once part of the Earth.

there is no evidence of life or anything that connects the moon to the earth.

the last probe Chang'e4 carried plant experiments, to test the high radiation environment outside of earth's magnetosphere. 

 

the data can help with supplying fresh food to a moon base or on a mars journey.
