Because the moon turns at the same speed as it travels around the Earth, we can never see the far side of the moon.

It is a huge crater （撞击坑） on the far side of the moon. There, it collected up to 2 kilograms of stone and soil to bring back to Earth. Scientists will study these samples to learn more about the moon.
What did Chang’e 6 do
Reached the moon: The probe went to the moon and split （分离） into two parts– an orbiter and a lander. The orbiter stayed in space, and the lander touched down on the moon.
Landed and collected: Once landed in the South Pole-Aitken Basin, it used tools to pick up stones and soil and put them in a box.
Left the moon: The lander flew back up and joined the orbiter.
Came back to Earth: The probe landed in Inner Mongolia with the samples.
