Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in the context of "Mengtian module"

The Wentian laboratory cabin module (simplified Chinese: 问天实验舱; traditional Chinese: 問天實驗艙; pinyin: Wèn tiān shíyàn cāng; lit. 'Quest for the Heavens laboratory cabin module'), is a major component of the Tiangong space station. It is the first of the station’s Laboratory Cabin Modules and the first module added to the Tianhe core module.

Wentian was launched on 24 July 2022 from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site and docked with Tianhe later that day. The crew of Shenzhou 14 entered the module for the first time a few hours later. On 30 September 2022, the module was relocated to the starboard port by the station’s indexing robot arm to prepare for the arrival of the Mengtian.

Chang'e 5 (Chinese: 嫦娥五号; pinyin: Cháng'é wǔhào) was the fifth lunar exploration mission in the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program of CNSA, and China's first lunar sample-return mission. Like its predecessors, the spacecraft is named after the Chinese moon goddess, Chang'e. It launched at 20:30 UTC on 23 November 2020, from Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on Hainan Island, landed on the Moon on 1 December 2020, collected ~1731 g (61.1 oz) of lunar samples (including from a core ~1 m deep), and returned to the Earth at 17:59 UTC on 16 December 2020.

Chang'e 5 was the first lunar sample-return mission since the Soviet Union's Luna 24 in 1976. New lunar minerals, including Changesite-(Y) and two different structures of the titanium compound Ti2O, were identified from the samples returned from the mission, making China the third country to discover a new lunar mineral. The mission also made China the third country to return samples from the Moon after the United States and the Soviet Union.
