China's lunar probe to image landing areaThe Chang'e II, China's second lunar probe, conducted an imaging tests of its CCD camera yesterday and it will track down and enter into an orbit around the moon of 100 kilometers by 15 kilometers on Tuesday by an enhanced thrust from the launch vehicle.China's second lunar probe completes final braking, enters working orbitChina's second unmanned lunar probe, Chang'e-2, has successfully completed its third, also the final, braking Saturday, which allowed the satellite to enter a 100 km-high lunar orbit, according to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center (BACC).China's second lunar probe completes first brakingChina's second unmanned lunar probe, Chang'e-2, completed its first braking Wednesday, which decelerated the satellite and successfully allowed it to enter a 12-hour orbit, according to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center (BACC).

Chinese Lunar Exploration Program

Chinese Lunar Exploration Program (CLEP) also known as Chang'e program is a program of robotic explorations

  • ·and human missions to the Moon undertaken by China National Space Administration (CNSA). It uses Chang'e lunar orbiters, rovers and soil return spacecraft and adapted Long March 3A, Long March 5/E and Long March 7 launch vehicles. The first spacecraft of the program, Chang'e 1, an un-manned lunar orbiter was successfully launched at Xichang Satellite Launch Center on October 24, 2007. Chang'e 2 is an un-manned lunar probe scheduled for launch in October 2010. It is China's second lunar orbiter, part of the first phase of the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program. The probe will conduct research at a 100-kilometer-high moon orbit. It is similar to Chang'e 1 with some improvements including a better camera with a resolution of 1 meter.
