China has launched a space probe that will travel to an asteroid near Mars to collect samples and find potential “revolutionary” results.
The Tianwen-2 probe launched on Thursday from the Xichang Satellite Center in the southwestern Chinese province of Sichuan Province on a long rocket work horse on March 3, according to the Chinese national space administration (CNSA).
Tianwen-2 goal will be different from its predecessor, Tianwen-1, which was launched a year ago and landed on Mars.
Tianwen-2 will target Asteroid 2016 HO3which is also known as 469219 Kamoʻoalewa, for the return of samples.

The proposed 10 -year plan would include more than this space mission only because China still looks like it would spread to space.
Zhang Rongqiao, chief designer Tianwen-1, told Central Television Cinema to plan to spend the Tianwen-3 Martian Mars “” Mars sampling in 2028 sampling, while “Tianwen-4” will hub toward Jupiter.
According to Associated Press, asteroids, selected for their relatively stable orbit, hopefully they will offer traces of the creation of the earth, such as the origin of water.

Samples from 2016ho3 should be returned for about two years.
Even if CNSA will distribute these samples to international partners as they have on previous missions, Nasa wouldn’t be able to receive any patterns.
The law passed in 2011, known as the wolf’s amendment, limits NASA to have any cooperation with CNSA.

This gives China a step in the right direction to become the main force in the exploration of the space.
