China preparing Chang'e-7 mission to hunt for lunar south pole ice
China plans to send the Chang'e-7 mission into space next week. The goal is to locate frozen water deposits hidden within deep, dark craters located near the Moon's south pole. This mission will utilize a lander, a rover, and a specialized hopping probe to explore the area. Researchers state that discovering reachable water is vital for establishing future Moon bases, as it could serve as a source of oxygen and drinking water for space crews.
