China moon rover will investigate cube-shaped 'mystery' object on lunar far side - CNET

That distant, somewhat cube-shaped object is the "mystery house" China's Yutu-2 rover is planning to take a closer look at.

The Yutu-2 rover is on a roll.

We have an update from Yutu-2 on the lunar far side, including an image of a cubic shape on the northern horizon ~80m away from the rover in Von Kármán crater.

Referred to as "神秘小屋" ("mystery house"), the next 2-3 lunar days will be spent getting closer to check it out.

The rover team is planning to drive over and get a closer look at the object.

China's rover is solar-powered, so it periodically goes into hibernation when it's dark and then gets back to work when the sun is out in the Von Karman crater
