(MENAFN – Youm7) The Chinese lunar probe "Chang & # 39; e-4" discovered a strange substance like a gel during its exploration activities on the other side of the moon.
According to the US space site, the discovery has pushed mission scientists to postpone other vehicle control plans, focusing instead on its tools to try to determine the nature of this strange substance.
The story began when the Yutu-2 explorer pioneered a path through an area filled with nozzles, causing minor shocks, with the help and planning of the Center's drivers Beijing Aerospace Control Center.

Inspecting images from the main camera of the robotic explorer, a team member discovered a small nozzle that appeared to contain a different color material than the surrounding moon. Together, the two teams decided to postpone the Yutu-2 project to continue westward, ordering the explorer to examine foreign matters.
Yutu-2 approached the crater cautiously, then targeted unusual color and environment materials, where the explorer examined both fields with his visible spectroscopy and near-infrared (VNIS), which detects the scattered or reflected light of the material to detect its composition.

But the scientists of the mission have so far given no indication of the nature of the material, merely saying that it is a "jelly" and an "unusual color", while researchers have suggested that the material was a dissolved meteorite glass up to the moon.
