It was a big deal 'cause it hit the south pole, which had never been done before. The rover and lander found some cool stuff, like clues about the Moon's makeup and history, which is gonna be super helpful for future missions. But get this: they didn't find any water up there, even though that was the main goal. They thought the polar regions might have some 'cause they're super cold and shady. But hey, here's a twist - turns out, the best bet for finding water might be beneath the surface, not on top! That's some next-level discovery right there.Credit: <br/>CC BY 2.0, https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/: <br/>Simeon Schmauß: <br/>Pragyan rampdown, https://flic.kr/p/2oZUSxx <br/>Pragyan turn, https://flic.kr/p/2oZS83X <br/>Landing video, https://flic.kr/p/2oYUhnn <br/>Yutu-2: Kevin Gill, https://flic.kr/p/2m15iiU <br/>ChangE-4: CSNA/Siyu Zhang/Kevin M.

It came down in a straight line and what was interesting was it had a green flame, like a hue, that burnt and then disappeared. <br/><br/>“You could hear it make a brief ‘whoosh’ sound and then I was expecting a big bang but it was just silent. <br/><br/>\")
