Chang'e-6 will lead to Chang'e 7 and 8. Which will result in the first permanent moon base.

One of the jobs of our satellite is to map the dark side and identify potential spots for a future moon base.

The ICUBE-Q is only the tip of the iceberg as far as impending collaboration on space and lunar research between Pakistan and China is concerned. Last year, Pakistan also joined the club of nations partnering with China on an ambitious project to build a research station on the south pole of the moon, the objective of the fourth phase of China's lunar exploration programme.

The China-led International Lunar Research Station (ILRS) project aims to construct a permanent lunar base in the 2030s.

France, Italy and Sweden also

Their stuff has absolutely nothing to do with the plans for a moon base.

China/Pak/Atleastonemoreguy, will have a moon base in the next 10 years.

Meanwhile USA will still be feeding a zombie Ukraine and bombing random brown people for oil and democracy and electing mentally senile presidents. LOL

I will be a nobody with a moon base.... meanwhile YOU are LEGALLY DEAD!

LOL

If you have not seen the series For All Mankind you should definitely watch it

It will let us do far more than Canada would ever be capable of doing.

Don't worry about it.

Our astronaut will wave to you on his way to the moon next year.

"They will never take Bagram!", said he.

"They'll go around it!", said I.

Prediction, predictions.....
