China is going to start their first lunar satellite Chang'e 1 on Wednesday,on October, 24th, at 10:00 GMT. Depending on weather start can be transferred on Thursday or Friday.The satellite will spend on lunar orbit about one year, during this time it will make three-dimensional shooting of the Moon, will study an electromagnetic background and will check up ground thickness on its surface. By 2012 China plans to send to the Moon more scaled unmanned expedition during which several robots will take the ground on the Earth satellite's surface.The satellite is named in honor of the Chinese goddess of Moon Chang'e,which, according to the legend, has took a potion to return the lost immortality, but has not estimate a doze and consequently she has not just found immortality, but also inadvertently has appeared on the Moon.We shall remind, in September the lunar satellite was started by Japan. The nearest two years India and USA plan to make this too.
