According to China's official news agency Xinhua, China published the first picture of the moon captured by Chang'e-1 on Monday morning, marking the success of the country's first lunar probe project.

The area covered by the picture, about 460 kilometers in length and 280 km in width, is located within a 54 to 70 degrees south latitude and 57 to 83 degrees east longitude, according to BACC sources.

The lunar probe was the third milestone in China's space exploration, following the success of man-made satellites and manned space flights.

The success not only manifested China's rising national strength and technical innovation capability, but also elevated the country's international status and cemented national cohesion.

What will be the next step for China's ambition? Do you know?
