Heads up đź‘€
China is due to launch their Chang’e 6 mission in the next couple of hours 🚀🛰️
It’s the first to attempt the return of samples from the lunar far side, in the scientifically very interesting South Pole-Aitken Basin region 🌑
There are some European experiments on-board & some of my ESA colleagues are at the launch site 🤞
There’s a livestream on CGTN & I’m due to be on at 09:30UTC / 11:30CEST.
