The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival or Mooncake Festival, is a traditional festival celebrated in Chinese culture. Similar holidays are celebrated in Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and other countries in East and Southeast Asia

Mooncakes Symbolize Family Reunion

In Chinese culture, roundness symbolizes completeness and togetherness. A full moon symbolizes prosperity and reunion for the whole family. Round mooncakes complement the harvest moon in the night sky at the Mid-Autumn Festival

A mooncake (simplified Chinese: 月饼; traditional Chinese: 月餅) is a Chinese bakery product traditionally eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋節). The festival is primarily about the harvest while a legend connects it to moon watching, and mooncakes are regarded as a delicacy.

Is it good luck to eat mooncakes?

The mooncakes are the sweet and round delicacies associated with the feast: thought to bring good luck and prosperity, they are usually given as a present to their loved ones and served with tea

Put all the good things and blessings in the square gift box, and let the warmth of reunion be condensed in the small mooncake~ As the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, Cathay has specially prepared a mixed mini mooncake gift box for everyone. I hope this Holiday blessings can accompany the moonlight, travel across thousands of mountains and rivers, and reach you.

The carefully crafted limited edition mooncake gift box brings you a double enjoyment of sight and taste! The design is inspired by aircraft portholes, with unique ingenuity and simplicity. There are three classic Hong Kong-style mooncakes with egg yolk and white lotus paste, red bean paste, and custard. Each one uses a low-oil and low-fat formula, taking into accounts both deliciousness and health. Whether you are rushing to a reunion and enjoying the happiness of family gathering together; Or set sail for the stars and explore the unknown world together. As always, Cathay Pacific will accompany you every step of the way also the design are from Cathay international iconic elements!

Manned moon landing, flight-based transportation, space “4S” shop, sound-finding plan… China is doing this to build a space power!……Wu Yansheng, chairman of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, introduced my country’s heavy-duty launch vehicle, flight-based space transportation system, national space infrastructure system, the fourth phase of lunar exploration, manned moon landing, Shenzhen The latest progress and development plans in space exploration and other aspects. Wu Yansheng, Chairman of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation In the “New Space Journey – “China Space Station Waiting for You to Travel” Series of Ideological and Political Courses, the future plans of China’s spaceflight are introduced – a new generation of manned launch vehicles, heavy launch vehicles, flight-based space transportation systems, and national space infrastructure The latest progress and development plans of the system, the fourth phase of lunar exploration, manned lunar landing, and deep space exploration.

(1) China, People’s Republic of China is developing a new generation of manned carrier rockets, which mainly launch a new generation of manned spacecraft in my country to meet the long-term strategic needs of China’s manned spaceflight such as manned lunar exploration. Its low-earth orbit carrying capacity will reach 70 tons, and the earth-moon the carrying capacity of the transfer orbit will reach 25 tons, and the first flight is expected to be completed around 2027.

(2) The Long March 9, a heavy-duty carrier rocket being developed in my country, has a body diameter of 10m and a height of about 110m. After successful development, the carrying capacity of the low-orbit will reach 150 tons, and the carrying capacity of the earth-moon transfer orbit will reach more than 50 tons. Strive to complete the first flight around 2030.

(3) China, People’s Republic of China ‘s manned spaceflight will also land on the moon and go to deep space. At present, a new generation of manned spacecraft and lunar lander is being developed. The new generation of manned spacecraft can send 3 astronauts into orbit around the moon and return to Earth. The lunar lander can carry 2 astronauts to land on the moon and carry out scientific exploration. Activity.

(4) We will implement the fourth phase of the lunar exploration project. Chang’e-6 is scheduled to sample and return from the back of the moon around 2025. Chang’e-7 plans to carry out environmental and resource exploration at the south pole of the moon around 2026. Chang’e-8 is planned to be launched around 2028, and together with Chang’e-7, it will form the basic type of scientific research station at the south pole of the moon in my country.

(5) China, People’s Republic of China plans to launch a deep-space probe around 2025 to detect near-Earth asteroids and main-belt comets, and plans to implement Mars sampling and return missions in the next 10 to 15 years. It is planned to carry out interplanetary explorations such as Jupiter and Uranus, and to carry out solar exploration and detection of the edge of the solar system. It is planned to implement the “Sound-seeking Project” around 2030 to detect whether there are planets suitable for human habitation outside the solar system….

A partial lunar eclipse will be visible in Hong Kong on November 19 (Friday). This is the second lunar eclipse this year, after the first one in May. Members of the public may enjoy this event during the evening when the Moon rises from the east-northeast horizon. At the time of moonrise at 5:38pm that day, the “maximum eclipse” stage has already ended. The Moon is leaving the umbra gradually and the partial eclipse ends at 6:47pm when the Moon exits the Earth’s umbra completely. The whole eclipse ends when the Moon leaves the penumbra at 8:06pm.

The Hong Kong Space Museum will live stream the partial lunar eclipse on that day. Curators will introduce the science behind lunar eclipse and share interesting titbits related to this astronomical phenomenon.
