After a successful soft landing by lunar vehicle, Chang’e 3, China will be exploring the moon’s surface with Yutu, a roving vehicle, which is expected to survey and look for natural resources for three months using 3D imagery, ground penetrating radar and a pair of spectrometers.
The landing vehicle itself is expected to send data for a year.
