Lunar Chinese vehicle "Chang'e-5" began drilling and collecting lunar soil

The Chinese automatic lunar station "Chang'e-5", which made a successful landing on the lunar surface the day before, has begun drilling and collecting the lunar regolith soil. This was announced by the China National Space Corporation.

According to the report, at 04:53 on Wednesday Beijing time (23:53 Moscow time on Tuesday), the station, consisting of the landing and return modules, began drilling, collecting and packing samples of lunar soil. In the future, it is planned to collect soil from the surface. For this, the apparatus will use special automated tentacles.

In total, according to the plans of Chinese scientists, the device should collect up to 2 kg of lunar soil, which will be delivered to Earth for study. The delivered soil is planned to be studied both for scientific purposes and as part of a project to prepare for the construction of a Chinese research lunar base.

On November 28, the Chinese automatic station Chang'e-5 approached the Moon and began deceleration at an altitude of 400 km. Having entered a 200-km lunar orbit, the station separated the lander from the orbital block. On December 1, the lander successfully landed north of Rumker Peak in the region of the largest lunar sea - the Ocean of Storms - in the northwest of the visible part of the Moon.

On the surface of a natural satellite of the Earth, the device will spend two lunar days, after which it will set off on its way back. The landing of the descent vehicle with the capsule is scheduled for December 15-16 in northern China in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

Meanwhile, Roscosmos called the landing of the Chinese apparatus "historical event "and wished China to fully implement the program and successfully deliver the lunar soil to Earth.

Trump signs a decree on the US right to use the resources of the moon
The decree states that the United States does not recognize the Agreement on the Activities of States on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies, according to which satellite research is considered the property of all mankind.

US President Donald Trump signed a decree in support of the commercial development of resources on the moon and other celestial bodies, the White House press service said.

“Americans should have the right to conduct commercial research, production and use of resources in outer space in accordance with applicable law,” the decree says.

At the same time, the document notes that space both legally and physically serves as “a unique space for human activity and the United States does not consider it as the public domain”, therefore, the country's policy should be aimed at “stimulating international support for the extraction and use of resources in space. "

For all of Humanity, as they say!
Congratulations on your successful soft landing!
Don't care about Trump. Whoever settles on the moon will be her dance to mine But objectively speaking, Americans should thank Trump for Artemis. I think history will appreciate this step. But the desire of his successor, Biden, to slow down the program a little, on the contrary, is unsuccessful.

I will add a few materials, since the authors of the article did not do it.
A video of the station landing has already been published. It is assembled from photographs taken by the lander during lunar landing.

It is worth noting that it is inferior in quality to the videos that were obtained during the Chang'e-3 mission in December 2013 and the Chang'e-4 mission in January 2019. But it is quite possible that a higher quality video with a larger number of frames will be published in the future.
In the video, you can see how, using the landing camera and artificial intelligence, the lander determines the most suitable areas for lunar landing and corrects the landing trajectory. Previous Chinese missions have also landed. This analysis began at an altitude of 2,5 km. When the module was already 100 meters from the surface, the engines stopped the descent for a short time, which made it possible to most accurately estimate the landing site, where there should be no large stones and craters.

CNSA also released two separate photos taken by the module's landing camera.

The second photo shows the shadow from one of the landing legs.

It seems like the Chinese are promising new photos. They had a panoramic camera there. We wait.
And of course, the return of at least 2 kg of soil (the whole capsule is designed for 4 kg). By very complex scheme. The lander will collect about two kilograms of samples from a depth of two meters and transfer them into a spacecraft launched into orbit, which will automatically approach and dock with the orbital module. The latter will begin a return to Earth and move the samples into a special capsule, which will be subsequently shot off, will enter the atmosphere and deliver the lunar soil to Earth without pollution. How. Our "Moon" just launched a capsule to the Earth.

No. Not "according to a very complex scheme", but simply "kill two birds with one stone": both the ALS work out, and the scheme for a manned flight (with multiple descent and ascent of the landing stage).

In the distant constellation of Tau Ceti
Everything became incomprehensible to us.
We send a signal: "What are you doing there?"
And we are sent back.

On tau kit
Live in beauty
Live, by the way, in different ways
Our comrades in reason.

Here, moving on a beam of light
Without help, but through,
I’m flying to Tau Ceti
To deal with her on the spot.

On Tau Ceti
Something is wrong:
There is a taukiit brothers
Crazy, according to our concepts.

For the time being I'm in suspended animation
Those Taukitians are rowdy.
Less and less often I get in touch with them -
Very much they are hooligans.

The taukites
In the alphabet of words
Not many, and the system is bourgeois,
And their humor is ugly.

I planted the ship like my own backside,
By slightly curving the reflector.
I shouted in Taukityan: "Vivat!" -
What does it mean in our way "Hello!".

Among taukites
All appearances are deception
Here you can not compete with them:
They will appear, then they will dissolve ... I am a Taukite - how do you like a Papuan,
I was briefly hinted about them.
I shouted: "The galaxy is ashamed of you!"
They blinked in response.

On tau kit
The conditions are not the same:
There is no atmosphere, it's stuffy here,
But the Taukites are welcome.

In the heat, I shouted to them: your mother, they say! ..
But my cyber guide
So literally translated me
What I felt ashamed of myself.

But the taukits,
Such brutes
Probably managed to pick up:
They will appear, then they will dissolve ... [Source Culture.RF: https://www.culture.ru/poems/19480/v-dalyokom-sozvezdii-tau-kita]

[Cosm22]

So after all, there is no reason to rejoice at Russia's success, that is the catch.
The launches of Angara-A5 and Soyuz-ST-A from the Kuru cosmodrome are only postponed with enviable regularity. The last time the bad weather prevented, although over the postponement of the start of the "Falcon", the jingoistic patriots greeted quite a bit in their time. It is not clear, however, why. If Musk needs good weather to land the first stage on a tiny platform, then Russian rockets fly, as you know, in any weather.
With regard to the Russian lunar program specifically, what can you generally talk about? About the only planned mission "Luna-25"? So, in principle, nothing good can be said about her even in the future tense. This is only a pale shadow of the Soviet Luna 16-24 projects. She doesn't even hold a candle to them, let alone the Chinese mission.
You can, of course, talk in more detail about the epic of the transformation of the Luna-Globe project into Luna-25. But why?
The main part of the mission is not even scientific. It's just a soft landing practice. For after the accident with the Phobos-Grunt spacecraft, the lunar concept was also revised. She was pretty much castrated, some of the scientific instruments were removed altogether, their number was halved.
We can only talk about the epic of the transfer of launches of the same "Luna-25". It is impressive - the chronology of transfers is as follows: 2014 ... 2015 ... 2016 ... 2017 ... Now they are talking about the date October 1, 2021. I mean, of course, the reserve one - October 30, 2021. These achievements can indeed be included in the asset of the Russian cosmonautics.

[Fungus]

Here I am about too. Now they smear their astronautics. And in the corresponding topic either do not appear or suck up. Today, by the way, our rocket was launched with Kuru.

[Cosm22]

Launched - great. We finally got it.
We are looking forward to the launch of "Angara-A5" in December. Unless, of course, he is transferred again.
But the corresponding topic, if you have read the article, is lunar. Here, with all the desire, there is nothing to say about the Russian cosmonautics. Good, alas.

[Fungus]

So you slander Russian space in Chinese and American space topics. And now you jump off, say, in the Chinese topic, there is nothing to say about Russian cosmonautics. It's hypocritical.

The transfer of arrows in the topic of the Chinese lunar program to the Russian cosmonautics began, colleague, not me, but you. It is you.
I just indicated in my comment (in response to yours) that in this area Russia has absolutely nothing to brag about.
Any objections?

Got something to argue?
Can you provide data on the superiority of the Russian cosmonautics in the lunar theme? Sound them, pliz.

Many good things can be done. Launching next October. The station is open for one year.

The main tasks of the spacecraft "Luna-25":

1. Development of soft landing technology;
2. Study of the internal structure and exploration of natural resources, including water, in the near-polar region of the Moon;
3. Investigation of the effects of cosmic rays and electromagnetic radiation on the lunar surface.

[Cosm22]

1. Learn materiel. Check out at least an interview with Luna-25 chief designer Pavel Kazmerchuk. Which in plain text asserts that the main task of its spacecraft is to develop the technology of soft landing. And nothing more. The rest is just an appendage for the press and blurring the eyes.
2. Indexes "26-27" will be correctly mentioned only after the "Luna-25" takes off at least. I don’t voice the enormous plans of the Chinese and American astronautics in the future, do I?
3. What devices have already been delivered? That unfortunate incomplete ten, which is listed in Vicki and which only managed to squeeze into the OZ after its weight was forced to be cut from 32 kg to 20? Along the way, also depriving the spacecraft of hermeticity? And is there a lot of Russian? Even if a representative of the NGO them. Lavochkina says that the share of foreign components in the service equipment reaches 40%? How much in real life is shrouded in mystery. It is not known, for example, whose nameplate is on the Pilot-D device.
"TERMO-L" had to be excluded, perhaps with great difficulty it will be possible to squeeze it into subsequent devices. As for the Swedish LINA-XSAN ion detector, the Swedes ran out of patience because of the constant postponements of the Luna-25 launch and they safely attached the device to the Chinese Chang'e-4 two years ago.
What can be said at all if the Luna-25 mission does not provide for even a simple trajectory correction during landing?

Quote: Cosm22

3. What devices have already been delivered?

The scientific equipment includes nine instruments: eight Russian and one developed by the European Space Agency. Russian instruments are designed to study the composition, structure, and physicomechanical properties of the lunar polar regolith, dusty and plasma exosphere in the vicinity of the south pole of the moon.

In the course of scientific research, an estimate of the mass fraction of water in the lunar soil at the landing point should be obtained. The scientific equipment also includes a television system, a manipulator complex and a device that provides power switching and command-telemetric exchange of the scientific payload with the service systems of the apparatus.

Mapping, sounding - it takes time. Or buy all the data from sworn friends? So they will soon push them into the category of commercial secrets, if they are able to understand what I mean.

If you are going to follow the AMC path, then you need something like this program:
1 - Land a module with a Lunokhod, on which 100500 sensors and a drill.
2 - Lunokhod drills cores and puts them into the recoverable module.
3 - Return to Earth of 100500 cores.
