A Chinese spacecraft carrying rock and soil samples from the far side of the Moon has lifted off from the lunar surface to start its journey back to Earth, according to state media.
The achievement on Tuesday is a world first and the latest leap for Beijing’s decades-old space programme, which aims to send a crewed mission to the Moon by 2030.

Damn, they weren’t waiting around
NASA already preparing to beg for an exception to the Wolfe Amendment so that they can beg China for a sample.
Damn another crewed mission to moon would be so dope. I wish they take me.
