Samples of lunar soil collected on the back surface of the Moon have been delivered to Earth. This was reported by CGTN TV channel. Samples of lunar soil were collected by drilling in automatic mode.

Samples of lunar soil were delivered by the return module of the Chinese lunar probe Chang'e-6. The probe parachuted a capsule with regolith. She landed in the northern Chinese province of Inner Mongolia. In the published footage, we see how a parachute with a capsule lands on a deserted territory. A convoy of military vehicles with specialists is moving towards the parachute landing point, who must pick up the capsule and deliver it to the research center for further study of samples of the collected soil.

Recall that on June 4, 2024, the Chinese lunar probe Chang'e-6 took off from the far side of the Moon with samples of lunar soil collected on it. It was planned that the soil would be delivered to Earth on June 25, 2024. As we can see, this is what happened.

It is known that this is the first ever example of collecting lunar soil from the far side of the Moon. It is noteworthy that China has successfully carried out this task, which indicates the significant success of this country in the space industry.

Recently, China has become one of the major space powers and is showing increasing activity in the space sector, which is very worrying for its main competitor, the United States.
