Elon Musk just exposed a top-secret mission between Russia and China Chinese presentations
at the international astronautical Congress or IAC in Paris without China's name on them
may have been the most subduly assertive Mainer for China to communicate problems with its space
cooperation with Russia in an effort to compete with the U.S in the new era of space exploration
China wants to conduct three unmanned missions to the Moon over the next 10 years but China
just ditched Russia in the supposed partnership to conquer The Far Side of the Moon what happened
exactly let us find out because Elon Musk will update us all hello everyone and welcome back
to Elon Musk Evolution where we bring you the most recent news about Elon Musk and his multi-billion
dollar companies space news and the latest science and technology but before we begin make sure you
subscribe to our Channel and click the Bell icon so you don't miss out on any of our amazing videos
and let's get started according to space news at the IAC in Paris last week China advertised
that it was looking for new international Partners while omitting mention of main partner Russia with
the country's Chief space representative informing the gathered experts that the nation is open to
receiving International proposals for its Chung e 7 Lander and Orbiter Mission Hoops according to
musk the Chinese National Space Administration or cnsa and other Chinese organizations
were extremely active at the international astronautical Congress which recently ended
in Paris to help it on its upcoming endeavors the celestial Empire is seeking allies the missions
Chung E7 which will sit down at the moon's South Pole and chongy 8 which will attempt to mine the
moon's surface are at the focus of most of the attention China provides space on these devices
for rent to other nations so they can use it for their own research apparatus the forthcoming Chung
E6 Mission will already carry a Pakistani cubesat an Italian retro reflector a a Swedish negative
ion detector a French radon detector and a retro reflector additionally it will house a
10 kilogram Rover from Saudi Arabia for its deep space exploration missions China is additionally
seeking collaborators in 2025 the spacecraft t on win 2 will attempt to collect samples from a close
by asteroid Mars will be visited by tion win 3 and Jupiter and Uranus will be visited by tion win
4. the celestial Empire still has a place on all these gadgets for Nations who want to join it as
allies China's lunar base which will be launched in the late 2030s in the South Pole of our moon
is the project that is now promoting the most it is promoted as a venue for Global collaboration by
the celestial Empire however it makes an effort to remain anonymous while referring to its principal
project partner the Russian Federation and the PRC on equal rights served as the Project's
co-founders according to a road map that was Inked for it in St Petersburg back in the summer of 2021
but for some reason this year China comments on the PowerPoint slides that were being used in
the presentations at the time with the phrase the program was launched in China in 2014. of course
the conflict that Russia sparked against Ukraine is the primary cause of such an odd transformation
any future collaboration with the aggressor nation is now toxic the only thing that is still unknown
is the reason for China's reticence over its most recent partner there has long been awareness that
there is no friendship between the two Nations only technological advancements in industrial
infrastructures are of interest to the celestial Empire unknown is whether they actually placed a
cross on a nation that hasn't been able to launch anything significantly new into space in a while
and is looking for new allies the lunar base May wind up continuing to be their shared undertaking
on the end we are obviously reading tea leaves in this situation musk stated the exclusion is
startling though considering China and Russia Inked a cooperation agreement in March 2021 to
jointly construct the international lunar research station or ilrs similar to NASA's
long-delayed Artemis Mission this is what aspires to establish a base close to the South Pole of the
Moon according to timelines provided by the China National Space Administration the countries are
now engaged in the reconnaissance stage of the project which aims to host crude lunar trips by
the middle of the 2030s any communist Nation must have Central planning notwithstanding the history
of its inconsequential results everywhere in the government bureaucrats are periodically entrusted
with creating objectives and benchmarks for their particular area of responsibility as part of that
planning the cnsa published one of those earlier this year these often take the shape of a five or
ten year plan musk explained this report is the fifth of its kind the first four were published
in 2000 2006 and 2011 and the most recent one was published in 2016. the present plans for further
space exploration build on the previous ones although the text is lengthy at almost 7 500 Words
and nonetheless provides a relatively high level summary of the objectives of the organization
a few key areas of focus are enhancing the sustainability of the rocket launches enhancing
their global positioning system collaborating with Russia on lunar exploration maintaining and
expanding the Tian gong space station looking into the underlying technology for a Mars sample return
Mission and forming an International Alliance to construct a research station on the moon
China's Workhorse rocket the Long March should experience an environmental improvement over the
next five years becoming pollution free in a short period of time additionally according to the white
paper cnsa intends to create a second Fleet of rockets that can meet the increasing demand for
regular launches in this reusable components and re-entry capable upper stages would be included
any global positioning system must launch above the atmosphere and cnsa aims to make significant
advancements in this area during the next five years cnsa's response to GPS is called they do
which consists of satellites for environmental monitoring and remote sensing The Five-Year Plan
encompasses enhancements to location precision and the installation of communication relays
however there are plans to launch the shunchian telescope in the next five years which will have
capabilities roughly comparable to those of Hubble ensuring that pure scientific satellites won't be
left behind the pursuit of science will not be restricted to outer space with Chung E6 7 and
8 under development and scheduled a launch within the next five years China will have
plenty of opportunities to explore the moon in the future cnsa intends to perform another
lunar return sample Mission and conduct study on the lunar polar regions by hopping around them
in the upcoming years cnsa intend to develop a wide range of lunar capabilities but other
scientific projects like the Tian gong Space Station's ongoing expansion might be undertaken
independently by it the windsion and Ming Tian laboratory cabin modules will be joined by the
Tiani core module during the following five years after the Tiani core module successful debut in
April of last year the agency's operations during the following five years will be heavily reliant
on increasing the station's capabilities but the white paper oddly lacks specific explanations of
what they will do with it according to musk China's goal to continue and improve its
capability to explore Mars is quite clearly outlined in the white paper cnsa intends to
expand deep space Communications and build the underlying Technologies for a sample return trip
as part of its five-year strategy to increase its infrastructure's capacity to handle missions near
Mars that most likely won't launch in the next five years but even with that schedule it may
potentially be fine with NASA's Mars sample return mission in a race to bring the first material back
to Earth from Mars and that's it for today guys we sincerely hope you enjoyed this video if you
