China to Send Flying Robot to Moon’s South Pole to Look for Water

  • China plans to send a flying robot to the moon's far side in 2026 to search for frozen water, which is crucial for future lunar exploration, as part of its Chang'e-7 mission.
  • The mission aims to conduct a detailed survey of the lunar south pole using various spacecraft, including an orbiter and a rover.
  • Chinese experts believe finding ice deposits could help sustain human life on the moon and reduce the cost of space missions.
