A rare opportunity to see the moon’s surface in person captivated crowds as the lunar sample from China’s Chang’e-5 mission took center stage in Bangkok.
In collaboration between the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT) and the China National Space Administration (CNSA), the lunar sample was showcased as one of the highlights of the “Sci Power for Future Thailand” Fair, which ended on Sunday.
Encased in a rotating crystal sphere, the 75-milligram sample called “The Moon Shines on Me” invited visitors on a microscopic journey to the moon’s surface and marveled at the extraterrestrial material up close.
The possibility of getting “closer than ever” to the moon really inspired people from diverse backgrounds who visited the exhibition, especially children, to fuel their passion for learning and pursuing their goals, said Suppawat Zhou, a member of the exhibition team.
