Hey space enthusiasts! Did you hear the big news? China’s Tianwen-2 probe has been moved to the launch site and is set to blast off at the end of May! How cool is that?
The China National Space Administration (CNSA) announced that after lots of testing and preparation at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in southwestern China, the Tianwen-2 probe is ready for its next big step. It’s now at the launch site where engineers will make sure everything is perfect before liftoff.
The probe will be carried into space by the Long March-3B Y110 rocket. This mighty rocket was moved to the launch pad just last week and is all set to do its job.
So, what’s Tianwen-2’s mission? It’s super exciting! The probe will fly by an asteroid, collect samples, and even explore a comet! Imagine that—visiting an asteroid and a comet in one mission! 🌠
This mission will help scientists learn more about our Solar System and the fascinating objects that move around in space. Who knows what amazing discoveries they’ll make?
Stay tuned for more updates on this awesome space adventure!
