History was made on June 4 when the Chang'e-6 probe ascender lifted off from the moon's far side carnying samples.For the first time,humanity has successfully col-lected samples from that side of the moon,which always faces away from Earth.Though images have long been taken of this"hidden side,"the collected samples will allow scientists to analyze the soil structure and physical proper-ties on this rarely explored terrain more closely.This analysis could shed more light on the moon's formation and even the origins of the solar system.
