China's Chang'e-6 lunar probe has made a successful landing on the far side of the Moon, as reported by Chinese state media agency Xinhua. The probe touched down in the South Pole-Aitken Basin, one of the largest known impact craters in our solar system. This marks a significant milestone as it is the first time samples will be collected from this rarely explored area of the Moon.
