    If i am not mistaken this is the second time China has landed on this side of the moon. And they’re the only country to have done so at all.

    If they did report on it it would be a “symbolic” landing and downplay any importance it might have.

      How are we supposed to pronounce this? “Change Site” or “嫦娥 Site”?
