A rare opportunity to see soil from sample from China’s Chang’e-5 mission to the moon has excited crowds in Bangkok.
The 75-milligram sample named “The Moon Shines Bright On Me” invited visitors on a journey to the moon’s surface.
“The lunar sample’s unusual color intrigued my curiosity, as it appeared to be sand rather than soil,” one seven-year-old student admitted after seeing the sample.
Under collaboration between the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT) and the China National Space Administration (CNSA), the lunar sample was featured as one of the highlights at Sci Power for Future Thailand Fair that concluded on Sunday.
