The Chang’e-5 mission has been sent to the Moon from China's Wenchang Cosmodrome.

The mission is to bring 2 kilograms of rock from the Moon to Earth in 23 days.

The last time rock was brought from the moon was in the 1970s by US and Soviet missions.

At present, China's Chang'e-3 and Chang'e-4 missions are observing the lunar surface.
