Topic: China to Launch Spacecraft to Collect Material from the Moon

Summary: China’s space agency is making final preparations to launch a spacecraft to the moon to collect material from the lunar surface.
If the effort is successful, it will be the first time in more than 40 years that any nation has brought back samples from the moon.
The unmanned spacecraft is named Changes after the ancient Chinese female god of the moon. It is set to launch early Tuesday aboard a Long March-5Y rocket. It will blast off from China’s Wenchang launch center on the southern island of Hainan. The spacecraft is expected to take three days to reach the moon.
The mission will make China only the third nation to collect lunar samples, following the United States and the Soviet Union.
The Chinese mission aims to drill down 2 meters into the moon’s surface and collect at least 2 kilograms of rocks and other material, the U.S. space agency NASA says.
The Chang’e-5 spacecraft includes four different modules that will work together to complete the mission.

Translation Summary: Mr. Mohammad Sadeq (21) is a Shopkeeper; he lives in Camp # 12, Block # G1, Thaingkhali-2, Thaingkhali, Ukhia, Cox’s Bazar. He was a resident of Lambagona, Maungdaw, Myanmar. He came to Bangladesh 15th September in 2017 due to genocide by Myanmar government. He told the VOA; he had a grocery store in Myanmar. Exactly one year after coming to Bangladesh in 2017, he used his experience to set up a shop in the camp. For collecting capital, he sold some rations and took help from various ways. He said his store mainly sells baby food items as well as water, soft drinks, tea, biscuits and other items. He added that in the beginning it was easy to do business in the shops but now it has become very difficult. For example, earlier electricity was available from the host community but now it is not available, shop rent, accessory expenses have increased. He added that the suffering of Rohingyas in the camp is increasing day by day.
