Overview of lunar exploration and International Lunar Research Station [PDF]

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2020
As the only natural satellite of the Earth, the Moon is the first target for human space exploration, due to its unique location, highly characteristic environmental resources and abundant material resources. The Earth-Moon system is the proving ground for the exploration of the solar system, and the Moon is a transit point towards farther deep space ...
