  • Abstract
    The Chang´e-3 lander and rover should touch down this month. If all goes according to plan, the red flag of China will soon fly on the moon´s surface. The Chang´e-3 mission is scheduled to launch in early December, and its lander should touch down on the lunar surface by the end of the year. Then a rover should roll off the lander´s ramp and start making tracks in the regolith.
