The China National Space Administration (CNSA) has released fascinating footage captured by the Chang’e 4 spacecraft of its historic landing on the far side of the moon on January 3.
The video, which was broadcast by state broadcaster CCTV, shows the moments leading up to and including touchdown—the first ever “soft landing” (one in which there was no damage to the vehicle) on the far side.
