Good for them! It’s exciting to see any lunar mission, and this is no exception. It sucks that so many people try to turn it into a political argument though.

It's a great mission, but I'm not aware of any ways in which it is most advanced. :) Except maybe that it is getting rocks from 2m below the ground, that is impressive.

If rock return is your 1 priority, there are other missions with ion engines that are bringing back rock from asteroids far away. :eek: (Like Hayabusa2)

Yeah, not to mention Apollo already brought a lot of rocks in the 60s-70s.

Still a great mission though :)

From launch to deployment is super fast (about 40-ish minutes from pad, TLI to deployment)
