“嫦娥三号”任务及其初步科学成果

"嫦娥三号"月球探测器自2013年12月成功着陆月球之后,已在月球停留超过3年时间,创下在月球表面工作时间最长的世界纪录。与此同时,"嫦娥三号"探测器搭载的8台科学载荷获得了大量的科学探测数据。为推进"嫦娥三号"任务科学探测数据的应用和研究,力争出好成果、快出成果,中科院在"嫦娥三号"任务执行前集中全国优势力量组建了由科学家、科学载荷研制单位技术人员和负责科学探测数据处理的地面应用系统技术人员组成的5个科学应用核心团队,并设立"‘嫦娥三号’任务探测数据科学应用研究"重点部署项目。经过两年多的时间,"嫦娥三号"任务核心科学家团队在月球地形地貌、浅表层地质结构、月基天文观测以及地球等离子体观测等方面取得了一系列创新性研究成果。

Preliminary Scientific Achievements of Chang'e-3 Mission

Chang''e-3 spacecraft landed on the Moon on 14 December 2013, and set a world record for the longest working hours on the surface of the moon. The eight scientific payloads of the Chang''e-3 have achieved a large amount of scientific exploration data. In order to promote the application and research of these exploration data, and strive for sound and quick results, Chinese Academy of Sciences conducted the key deployment project of application research on the scientific data from CE-3 before launch. Five core teams of scientists consisted of scientists, scientific instruments, and Ground Research and Application System technical personnel. The five core teams have achieved a series of innovative research results in lunar topography, regolith structure, lunar based astronomical observation, and earth plasma observation in 2 years.
