Gao Jingbo, Model developer
Chang’e 4 has landed on the far side of the moon
and thanks to the relay satellite Queqiao
it could realize the bidirectional signal transmission
which is a great contribution of Chinese scientists
to the lunar landing mission of mankind
In the center of the exhibition hall, the Chang'e 5 re-entry capsule, the parachute, and samples of lunar soil that followed the spacecraft to Earth were on display for the first time outside Beijing. These blockbuster exhibits marked the successful achievements of China's Chang'e lunar exploration project and placed a highly monumental significance, attracting many astronomy enthusiasts.

I only watched the lander and rover on TV before
but now I’m so close to them
I feel very proud about our country
