The Yutu 2 rover, which was landed on the surface of the moon by China two years ago, has not only sent beautiful photos of the moon but has also caught a mysterious object some distance away from the moon. The Yutu 2 rover, working in the von Karmann crater, has spotted this mysterious object 80 meters away from its current position. Chinese scientists have named this cube-shaped object as the ‘mysterious hut’. According to the report of Space.com, this discovery was made in November.
Let us tell you that Space.com, citing the information of the rover regularly published by the Chinese-language outreach channel ‘Our Space’, said, ‘Suddenly, a cube appeared on the northern horizon of the moon, which caught everyone’s attention. . This object appeared on the horizon and it looked like a mysterious hut. There is also a big crater near it. Was this the house built by aliens after the crash landing? Or is it the spacecraft of earlier missions to explore the Moon?’ ‘Our Space’ is associated with the National Space Administration (CNSA) of China. It has also shared the picture of this mysterious object.
On the other hand, if we talk about this rover, then this Yutu 2 rover, launched on December 8, 2018, was taken to the far side of the moon through China’s Chang’e-4 probe. It made a soft landing for the first time on January 3, 2019, at the Von Karman crater in the South Pole-Aitken basin on the far side of the Moon. Rover Yutu-2 has passed its design life of three months. In this way, this rover has become the longest-serving rover on the Moon. The rover is equipped with six wheels, which is quite powerful. This is because the rover can continue to operate even if one wheel fails. It can climb hills of 20 degrees and overcome obstacles up to 8 inches. The maximum speed of the rover is 200 meters per hour.
Significantly, in Chinese folklore, Yutu is the white pet rabbit of Chang’e, the goddess of the moon. Because of this the name of this mission was given. The proverb says that Chang’e ate a magic bullet. After this, she went to the moon with her pet. On reaching here she became a goddess and then she is living with her white rabbit.
