九月。中秋節。元宵節。月餅

中秋節On Today it is 29^th September 2023 a very longest wintery season since last year- summer is cancelled- spring is only a guest…beginning 29th September 2023 mild cool spring as a guest in with crispy September weather week in which saying happy mid-autumn festival Lantern Festival everyone in which happens to fall on celebrating with mooncakes … that’s celebrate with family in the Asian Chinese communities… in least than a week time on in which the full moon on the 29th – September -6th October 2023 in which the celebration festival dates back to the Shang dynasty three thousand years ago before the Zhou Dynasty … storytelling narratives of of the great general lovely devotion for his wife Chang’e of offerings of mooncakes also The traditional lanterns are designed with the lucky color red, among Other popular Moon Festival legends include the Jade Rabbit jade maiden …

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..

It is said that if you look up at the moon, you can see an outline of the Jade Rabbit pounding with a pestle. More than just cute, fluffy, and white, the Jade Rabbit is a sign of selflessness, piety, and sacrifice..

中秋節The Mid-Autumn Festival is the festival of Mid-Autumn. It falls in the second month of autumn and is marked by the fifteenth full moon. This day is in the midst of the three autumns, so it is called the “Mid-Autumn Festival”. The moonlight is brighter than usual this night, which is also called “moon eve”. Because the Mid-Autumn Festival falls in autumn and August, it is also known as the “Autumn Festival” and “August Festival”; because of worshiping and worshiping the moon, it is also called the “Moon Festival” and “Moon Festival”; during the Mid-Autumn Festival, families reunite and married daughters go home. Reunion, so it is also called “Reunion Festival” and “Girls’ Day”; in mid-autumn, various fruits are ripe and on the market, so it is called “Fruit Festival”. The Dong people call it “Pumpkin Festival”, and the Mulao people call it “Housheng Festival”. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, people gather to admire the moon, offer sacrifices, and celebrate the harvest.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is also known as the “Correct Month”. Records about the “Reunion Festival” were first seen in literary works of the Ming Dynasty. “West Lake Tour Zhiyu” says: “August 15th is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and people send moon cakes to each other to symbolize reunion.” “A Brief Introduction to the Scenery of the Imperial Capital” also says: “When worshiping the moon on August 15th, the cakes must be round , the teeth will be wrong when dividing melons, and the petals will be carved like lotus flowers. … If a woman returns to peace, she will return to her husband’s house on this day, which is called the Reunion Festival.”

Initially, the “Moon Festival” was held on the “autumn equinox” day of the 24th solar term in the Ganzhi calendar, but later it was moved to the 15th day of the eighth month of the Xia calendar (lunar calendar). According to the Chinese calendar, the eighth month of the lunar calendar is in the middle of autumn and is the second month of autumn, so it is called “Zhongqiu”. The fifteenth day of August is in the middle of “Zhongqiu”, so it is called “Mid-Autumn Festival

Chasing the moon

The so-called “chasing the moon” means that after the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the excitement is still not over, so on the next night, many people invite relatives and friends to continue admiring the moon, which is called “chasing the moon.” According to the preface to “Lingnan Miscellaneous Notes” by Chen Zihou of the Qing Dynasty: “On the 16th night of August, good people in Guangdong gather relatives and friends to feast and enjoy the moon. This is called chasing the moon.”

Guessing riddles

On the night of the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, many lanterns are hung in public places. People gather together to guess the riddles written on the lanterns. Because it is a favorite activity of most young men and women, and love stories are also spread in these activities, so guessing lantern riddles during the Mid-Autumn Festival A form of love between men and women has also been derived.

Eat mooncakes

Moon cakes, also called moon cakes, harvest cakes, palace cakes, reunion cakes, etc., were tributes to the moon god during the Mid-Autumn Festival in ancient times. Mooncakes were originally used as offerings to worship the moon god. Later, people gradually regarded admiring the moon and tasting mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival as a symbol of family reunion. Moon cakes symbolize reunion, and people regard them as festive food, using them to worship the moon and give them to relatives and friends. Today, eating moon cakes has become a must-have custom for the Mid-Autumn Festival in all parts of northern and southern China. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, people eat moon cakes to show “reunion.”

More than One year ago on 24^th November 2020, the Chang Zheng – Long March Five Carrier Rocket Launched away in CNSA – China National Space Administration China Wenchang spaceport launch, Change Five Lunar probe into orbit, opened up towards China – People’s Republic of China’s first celestial bodies sample return trip from Mons Rumker on the Lunar Surface of the moon New research achievements – Chinese scientists reveal the composition of lunar soil minerals and space wind at the landing site of Chang’e 5

Chinese scientists discover new minerals on the moon for the first time The autumn 9^th September 2022 today, on the eve of the traditional Chinese festival Mid-Autumn Festival, in which duration on the 10^th towards 13^th September 2022 the CNSA- China National Space Administration and the National Atomic Energy Agency jointly released the latest scientific achievements of Chang’e-5. Dong Baotong, deputy director of the National Atomic Energy Agency, announced at the launch event that the new mineral discovered by Chinese scientists on the moon for the first time was named “Chang’e Stone”. This is a major scientific achievement my country has made in the field of space science, and it is also a successful exploration of cross-industry and cross-professional cooperation between nuclear and aerospace.

▲The position of Chang’e stone in the sample

“Chang’e stone” is a phosphate mineral in the form of columnar crystals found in lunar basalt grains. The innovative team of CNNC Beijing Institute of Geology, through a series of high-tech means such as X-ray diffraction, isolated a single crystal particle with a particle size of about 10 microns from 140,000 lunar sample particles, and successfully deciphered it. its crystal structure. Confirmed as a new mineral by voting by the International Mineralogical Society (IMA) New Mineral Classification and Nomenclature Committee (CNMNC). This mineral is the sixth new mineral discovered by humans on the moon, and my country has become the third country in the world to discover new minerals on the moon after the United States and Russia.

▲Scanning electron microscope photo of Chang’e stone and symbiotic minerals

On December 17, 2020, Chang’e 5 returned to Earth with 1,731 grams of lunar samples. The National Space Administration has completed the distribution of 152 lunar samples in four batches totaling 53,625.7 mg, and 98 applicants from 33 scientific research units have passed the application. The fifth batch of lunar samples is being reviewed and will be released according to procedures. The Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Natural Resources, China National Nuclear Corporation and other units have been approved to undertake lunar sample research work, and foreign scientists and students have also participated in the joint research. At present, the latest achievements have been made in magma differentiation, space weathering, helium-3 gas and bioenergy conversion, etc., which are useful for understanding the origin and evolution of the moon, exploring the effective use of lunar resources, and realizing “zero energy” extraterrestrial environment and life. The support system has important implications

▲Chang’e Stone Structure The National Space Administration and the National Atomic Energy Agency, as the competent government departments in China’s aerospace and nuclear fields, have always adhered to the principles of “innovative leadership, collaborative efficiency, peaceful development, cooperation and sharing”, adhering to the concept of peaceful use of space and peaceful use of nuclear energy , continue to be committed to the integration of aerospace technology and nuclear technology, continue to explore scientific frontiers in deep space exploration and nuclear technology applications, and make new contributions to promoting the development of science and technology, the emergence of scientific achievements and international cooperation. .

As we all know, the earth has a strong global magnetic field. When the solar wind “invades” the earth, a huge protective umbrella, the magnetosphere, will form around the earth, blocking most of the solar wind. Due to the lack of this global magnetic field and dense atmosphere on the moon, the lunar surface is directly exposed to the deep space, and the solar wind and the earth’s wind can directly bombard the lunar surface, producing various effects. The current data from China’s Chang’e, Japan’s Moon Goddess, India’s Chandrayaan-1, and the US Interstellar Boundary Probe show that about 0.1-1% of the solar wind protons in the general area will be scattered by the lunar surface, and 10-20% of the solar wind protons will be scattered with the lunar surface. After the action, it is converted into energy neutral atoms, and most of the remaining will be injected into the lunar soil to produce lunar water. Although the moon does not have a global magnetic field, there are many magnetic anomaly areas scattered on the lunar surface, and the magnetic field strength on the lunar surface is about several hundred nT. It can block part of the solar wind from bombarding the lunar surface, and the reflectivity of solar wind protons increases significantly in large-scale magnetic anomalies. Detecting energy-neutral atoms can reveal the microphysical mechanisms of the interactions between the solar wind, the Earth’s wind and the lunar surface, revealing small-scale features.

Fig. 1 Chang’e-4 landed on the Von Karman crater in the South Pole-Aiken Basin on the far side of the moon. The yellow area is the magnetic anomaly, and the red arrow represents the direction of the solar wind bombarding the lunar surface on the dark side.

On January 3, 2019, Chang’e-4 landed on the Von Karman impact crater in the South Pole-Aiken Basin on the far side of the moon, and the Neutral Atom Detector (ASAN) on the Yutu-2 lunar rover was energy neutral to the lunar surface for the first time on the far side of the moon. Atoms (ENA) make observations. Based on the analysis of the ENA energy spectrum obtained by ASAN from January 11, 2019 to October 12, 2020, the study found that in most lunar days, the ENA differential flux on the morning side is higher than that on the dusk side; The analysis of the observation data of the Atom Detector and the ARTEMIS satellite during the same period found that the differential flux of ENA in different energy ranges on the morning side and the dusk side is positively correlated with the solar wind state parameters such as flux, density and dynamic pressure. This is the first time to calculate the electrostatic potential above the magnetic anomaly using the observation data of neutral atoms on the lunar surface, updating the understanding of the interaction between particles and the magnetic anomaly. The results have extensive reference value for the study of solar wind, terrestrial wind and celestial bodies without atmosphere and global magnetic field (such as asteroids or comets).

The deceleration of solar wind protons is associated with magnetic anomalies.

The research results were published in Astrophysical Journal Letters, an authoritative magazine in the industry. The first author of the paper is Wang Huizi, a doctoral student in the Interaction Group of the Magnetosphere and the Solar Wind at Shandong University. Zhang Jiang from the Planetary Science Research Group, and the co-authors of the paper are from Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, Peking University, Space Center of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Earth Science of Chinese Academy of Sciences, etc.

众所周知，地球有着强大的全球磁场，太阳风“入侵”地球时，地球周围会形成一个巨大的保护伞——磁层，阻挡了绝大部分太阳风。而月球由于缺少这种全球磁场和浓密大气，月球表面直接暴露于深空中，太阳风、地球风可以直接轰击月表，产生各种各样的效应。目前来自中国嫦娥、日本月亮女神、印度月船一号以及美国星际边界探测器的数据表明，一般区域大约0.1-1%的太阳风质子会被月表散射，10-20%的太阳风质子与月表作用后转化成能量中性原子，剩下大部分会注入月壤产生月球水。虽然月球没有全球磁场，但在月表散落着多个磁场异常区，在月表磁场强度约几百nT，当太阳风与磁异常相互作用时，也会形成一个小保护伞——微磁层，也可以阻挡一部分太阳风轰击月表，太阳风质子的反射率在大尺度磁异常区明显增加。探测能量中性原子可以揭示太阳风、地球风与月表相互作用的微观物理机制，揭示其中的小尺度特征。

2019年1月3日，嫦娥四号着陆在月球背面南极-艾肯盆地冯•卡门撞击坑，玉兔二号月球车上的中性原子探测仪（ASAN）首次在月球背面对月表能量中性原子（ENA）开展观测。该研究在分析2019年1月11日至2020年10月12日ASAN获取的ENA能谱的基础上，发现大多数月昼中，晨侧ENA微分通量高于昏侧；结合嫦娥四号中性原子探测仪和ARTEMIS卫星同期的观测数据分析发现，晨侧和昏侧不同能量范围的ENA微分通量与太阳风状态参数如通量、密度及动压呈正相关关系。这是首次利用月表中性原子观测数据计算磁异常上方的静电势，更新了粒子与磁异常相互作用的认识。该成果对研究太阳风、地球风与无大气无全球磁场的天体（如小行星或彗星）具有广泛的参考价值。

该研究成果发表于业内权威杂志Astrophysical Journal Letters，该论文的第一作者是山东大学磁层与太阳风相互作用课题组博士生王慧姿，通讯作者为山东大学磁层与太阳风相互作用课题组长史全岐教授和行星科学课题组张江老师，论文的合作者来自于日本宇宙航空研究开发机构、北京大学、中科院空间中心、中科院地球所等。

In which the cumulative mileage of the Yutu-2 lunar rover exceeded the 1,000-meter mark, revealing the mystery of the “mysterious cabin”] On December 27, 2021, Yutu-2 will wake up and usher in the 38th day of work, and the goal is still to continue heading north . First, the stride Meteor moved three times, 7 meters, 9 meters, and 10 meters. The larger the stride, the total mileage reached 992.3 meters. At this time, there is only about 10 meters left from the “Mystery Cabin”. The mystery of the “hut” was lifted, and the drivers immediately arranged for a panoramic camera to perform color imaging, finally revealing its true appearance!

The “Mysterious Cabin” is like a lifelike rabbit, the scattered stones in front of the “Jade Rabbit” are like a carrot, and the round stone beads behind the “Jade Rabbit” are like the products of the “Jade Rabbit” after a meal. The scene in front of us is like a rabbit about to eat, and the picture is full of fun.

At noon on January 6, 2022, the pilots of Yutu No. 2 started the task of the day and afternoon of this month, but everyone worked tirelessly for more than ten hours. Near midnight, the cumulative mileage of Yutu finally broke through the 1,000-meter mark, reaching 1,003.9 meters!
The upcoming January 11, 2022 will be the third anniversary of the Chang’e-4 lander and Yutu-2 completing the mutual shooting of the two vehicles and the complete success of the mission. The latest mileage record is undoubtedly the longest nice gift.

Over the past three years, under the precise control of flight controllers, the Chang’e-4 lander, rover, and relay star have completed one arduous task after another, constantly breaking their own records on the way to the back of the moon, and continuing to explore the mysteries of the back of the moon. .
In the next day of the month, Yutu-2 will detect the target rock at close range and perceive the large impact crater behind it. We expect Yutu-2 to make more scientific discoveries.
