NEARLY 40 years after the cold grey soil of the moon was last disturbed by bounding humans, the lunar surface has become an official destination once more.
Tentative plans to land a man on the moon have been outlined in a document published by the Chinese government that confirms the nation's intention to become a major spacefaring nation.
Officials in China have spoken before of their hopes for a crewed lunar mission, but the government document is the first to state the aim as a formal goal for the nation's space agency.
