Our Space, a Chinese Space Administration outreach program, revealed that the cubic formation with the appearance of a “mystery house” detected across the moon last month by the Yutu-2 rover is a rock, according to with a post made this Friday to his WeChat account.
To solve the mystery as quickly as possible, Chinese scientists looked for a way for the Yutu-2 to move as quickly as possible towards the strange object, while always maintaining safety.
The Chinese Space Administration named it the “jade rabbit”, in reference to a myth from the Asian country, which says that an animal with these characteristics lived in our natural satellite and prepared elixirs such as, for example, the one of life.
