For those not familiar with Chinese mythology, what the Western people call the ‘man on the moon’, the Chinese call ‘ the rabbit on the moon’. See – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_rabbit
“China\’s Jade Rabbit robot rover has driven off its landing module and on to the Moon\’s surface.
The robotic vehicle rolled down a ramp lowered by the lander and on to the volcanic plain known as Sinus Iridum.
Earlier on Saturday, the landing module containing the rover fired its thrusters to perform the first soft landing on the Moon since 1976.
The touchdown in the Moon\’s northern hemisphere marks the latest step in China\’s ambitious space programme.
The lander will operate there for a year, while the rover is expected to work for some three months.
The Chang\’e-3 mission landed some 12 days after being launched atop a Chinese-developed Long March 3B rocket from Xichang in the country\’s south.”
