Chang ' e second has become China's first individual solar system asteroid

December 14, 2013 21 o'clock Xu, Chang ' e third probe successfully realize lunar soft landing, China became the third country after the United States, the Soviet Union to realize the moon soft landing. According to Xinhua reported that Chang ' e third, the leading star Chang ' E second has become our first personal Solar system asteroid, currently flying to the Earth 65 million kilometers deep empty, still fly farther deep space. Chang ' e second satellite is China's Lunar exploration project phase two of the leading star, October 1, 2010 launch. Since December 13, 2012, flying over the detection of Tutatis asteroids, the successful implementation of the expansion of the experiment, the Chang ' e second satellite in China spacecraft to fly the farthest distance of a "space Long March", and constantly refresh the "Chinese height": The star of the distance from January 5, 2013 breakthrough 10 million kilometers, February 28 breakthrough 20 million km, April 11 breakthrough 30 million km, May 24 breakthrough 40 million km, July 14 breakthrough 50 million km, has now exceeded 65 million km. In addition, the implementation of the Chang ' E second project has created a number of aerospace field "World First": For the first time, the 7-meter resolution of the whole moon stereo image, the first time from the lunar orbit to fly to the Granges L2 point for scientific detection, the first time to the Tutatis asteroid near the rendezvous to detect and obtain a 10-meter resolution of the asteroid image. According to the Beijing Aerospace Flight Control center calculation, Chang ' e second is expected to fly farthest from the earth about 300 million kilometers, which will be the furthest distance of our spacecraft flying a "space Long March."
