    China embarked on the pioneering Chang'e-6 lunar probe mission aimed at collecting samples from the moon's far side, a feat not previously attempted. Launched from Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan, the mission features an integrated system comprising an orbiter, lander, ascender, and re-entry module, targeting the South Pole-Aitken Basin for sample collection. This initiative underscores significant advancements in space exploration and international cooperation, evidenced by the inclusion of Pakistan's ICUBE-QAMAR cubesat among other foreign payloads.
