On an average US Mars rovers' worked for 5 years. I am sure Mars is more hostile than Moon

What is this poop skin low IQ filthy subhuman???

Wrong. The moon has a far greater temperature range than the Mars surface and the latter has similar climates to Earth. Mars has an atmosphere unlike the moon, allowing energy to be trapped within the surface and deflecting excess solar radiation, allowing the climate there to be relatively stable.

Meanwhile a mechanical failure of a Chinese lunar mission turns to be the latest huge source of bride for the ever impotent Indian supapowa.

Do you always talk like an imbecile? Have you stopped growing up? Looks like it.

And what do you mean by saying, "latest huge source of bride.." WTF are you trying to convey? You provide brides?

For f**K sake is it alive or not. Half of you are saying it is working while the other half are saying its dead.

For f**K sake is it alive or not. Half of you are saying it is working while the other half are saying its dead.

According to the latest report, it has fully awakened from hibernation and signal transmission is restored. They are still trying to sort out the mechanical problem earlier. So no, it is not dead by any stretch of imagination.

Don't worry China, failure is the step to success. It is no small deal to soft-land on moon...

We want China to share the truth. We ourselve wish the Rover could be recovered and last longer,
Any failure of the Rover is not the failure of China space program. It's very normal.

What's abnormal if any, that they tell the truth about the rover status or not ...
I guess the Rover met trouble very soon after landed the Moon, and the developer want to say the difference.

We don't want the painting story, we expect the truth of the beautiful Rover.

China's Jade Rabbit rover comes 'back to life', Xinhua news agency reports - The Times of India

BEIJING: China's troubled Jade Rabbit lunar rover, which experienced mechanical difficulties last month, has come "back to life", state media reported on Thursday.
"It came back to life! At least it isaliveand so it is possible we could save it," the official Xinhua news agency quoted Pei Zhaoyu, spokesman for the lunar programme, as saying on a verified account on Sina Weibo, a Chinese equivalent of Twitter.
The probe, named Yutu or Jade Rabbitafter the pet of Chang'e, the goddess of the moon in Chinese mythology, had experienced a "mechanical control abnormality" last month, provoking an outpouring of sympathy from weibo users.
Concerns were raised that the vehicle would not survive the bitter cold of the lunar night.
" The Jade Rabbitwent into sleep under an abnormal status," Pei said according to Xinhua. "We initially worried that it might not be able to bear the extremely low temperatures during the lunar night."
An unverified weibo user "Jade Rabbit Lunar Rover", which has posted first-person accounts in the voice of the probe, made its first update since January, when it had declared: "Goodnight, Earth. Goodnight, humans."
"Hi, anybody there?" it said Thursday, prompting thousands of comments within minutes.
Xinhua has said the account is "believed to belong to space enthusiasts who have been following Yutu's journey to the moon".
The Jade Rabbit was deployed on the moon's surface on December 15, several hours after the Chang'e-3 probelanded.
The landing -- the third such soft-landing in history, and the first of its kind since the Soviet Union's missionnearly four decades ago -- was a huge source of pride in China, where millions across the country charted the rover's accomplishments.
China first sent an astronaut into space a decade ago and is the third country to complete a lunar rover mission after the United States and the former Soviet Union.
The landing was a key step forward in Beijing's ambitious military-run space programme, which include plans for a permanent orbiting station by 2020 and eventually sending a human to the moon.
The projects are seen as a symbol of China's rising global stature and technological advancement, as well as the Communist Party's success in reversing the fortunes of the once-impoverished nation.
The central government said the mission was "a milestone in the development of China's aerospace industry under the leadership of... Comrade Xi Jinping".

You could never meet this issue, if you accept to cooperate with Russia or USA in space program.

If China cooperates with fucking USA and Russia, we already lost EVERYTHING. Only because of being blocked by high tech export from Western countries made China more self dependent. Understand, idiot?

So why don't Vietnam cooperate with US or Russia in space program genius? Give and receive, lol. You want to receive but don't give. That's what Vietnamese girls tell me about you guys.

 

[BoQ77]

you have chance to cooperate, we have no. Simply.

USA gave credit for us to make and launch our satellite to space.
Japan help us the same, Belgium, Netherland will

Do you know which is the first Asian astronaut in the space ??? He's Vietnamese, not Chinese.

Hahaha
