There are really "Chang'e"!Reveal the discovery of the new mineral minerals

Looking up at the starry sky at an hour

The old man said there was Chang'e there

2020

Chang'e 5 brought back the moon soil

2022

Chinese scientists found new minerals on the moon for the first time

Name "Chang'e Stone"

On September 9th, it coincided with the eve of the Mid -Autumn Festival, the National Space Administration and the National Atomic Energy Agency jointly released the latest scientific achievements in Chang'e 5 in Beijing: China Nuclear Group Nuclear Industry Beijing Geological Research Institute found new minerals in the research of the moon, and was named "Chang'e Stone Stone "". This is a major scientific achievement achieved in the field of space science, and it is also a successful exploration of nuclear and aerospace cross -industry and cross -professional cooperation.

"Chang'e Stone" is a phosphate mineral

Pillar crystal

Existing in the moon's basalt granules

China Nuclear Group Nuclear Industry Beijing Geological Research Institute Innovation Team

A series of high -tech methods such as X -ray diffraction

In 140,000 months of sample particles

Separate a single crystal particles with a size of about 10 microns

(One tenth of ordinary people's hair can not be used)

And successfully interpret its crystal structure

Classification of New Minerals by the International Mineral Society (IMA)

Voted for the Naming Committee (CNMNC)

It is confirmed as a new mineral

This mineral is the sixth new mineral found on the moon

my country becomes after the United States and the former Soviet Union

The third country in the world to discover new minerals in the moon

Netizens shouted:

Because of "Chang'e Stone", this Mid -Autumn Festival is more meaningful!

What does "Chang'e Stone" look like?

What does "Chang'e Stone" look like?

What is the main ingredient?

What is the crystal structure?

Scientists have scanned it with CT

There is another Chinese -style romantic name

December 17, 2020

Chang'e 5 carries 1731 grams of moon samples and returns to the earth

The National Space Administration has completed four batches of 152 copies

A total of 53625.7 mg of moon sample distribution

China Nuclear Group Nuclear Industry Beijing Geological Research Institute Lunar Research Team

As a scientific research institution that undertakes the research work of the moon sample

After more than a year of unremitting efforts

I found a new lunar mineral mineral

"Chang'e Stone" is the corresponding English name "Changeite" for its carefully selected name "Changeite"

But because of the minerals that have been discovered before

"Changoite" is too close

Named and Classification Committee by the International Mineral Association

(IMA-CNMNC) veto

"It's only a name, change it,"

Can the research team never want to give up the name "Chang'e Stone"

They want to pin this spirit of Chinese aerospace detection

The name of the beautiful legend

Talk to the world

After the English name is modified a little

"Changesite" is submitted with richer connotation

It is to commemorate the lunar samples that the Chang'e project retrieved for the first time

Clarified that the mineral comes from traditional Chinese myths

"Chang'e" (SITE)

It also shows that the mineral

Take from Chang'e's landing point (SITE)

"S" is both Chinese "Stone-SHI"

It is the first letter at the beginning of the English "Stone-Stone"

The pronunciation is also closer to Chang'e Stone

The new English name is finally passed

Chinese -style romantic name

One more!

At present, there are Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Natural Resources, China Nuclear Group, etc.

Multiple scientific research units have been approved to undertake lunar sample research work

Foreign scientists and international students have also participated in joint research

Has been divided into magma, weather weathering, 氦 ﹣3 gas

And the transformation of biological energy

Get the latest results

To know the origin and evolution of the moon

Explore the effective use of moon resources

And the exterior environment that realizes "zero energy consumption"

And life support system

It has important enlightenment

There is really "Chang'e" on the moon

The central enterprises use their own wisdom and hard work

Make ancient myths a reality

Central enterprises always focus on major national strategic directions

In terms of deep space detection and nuclear technology application

Constantly exploring scientific frontier

Efforts to promote the development of science and technology

The emergence of scientific achievements and international cooperation

Make new contributions!
