China Moon Mission: China's Chang'e 6 spacecraft has recently returned to Earth with rocks and soil from the far region of the Moon. This was the first mission to reach the far region of the Moon and bring soil and rock samples from there. Let us tell you that earlier in August 2023, India's Chandrayaan landed on the south pole region of the Moon. India became the first country to do so. Now China has said that it welcomes scientists from all over the world to study the moon samples collected by Chang E-6.

Research limitations with America - China

China space officials have said that they welcome scientists from all over the world to study the samples brought from the Moon, but there are some limitations in this process of research, especially with America. Chinese officials say that any cooperation with the US will depend on removing the US law banning direct bilateral cooperation with NASA.

What is the controversy?

In fact, the Wolf Amendment was brought into effect by the US in the year 2011. Let us tell you that this amendment approves only those bilateral cooperations between America and China in which the FBI can certify that there is no threat to national security by sharing information with the Chinese side during the work.

What did China say?

China has said that the root of the obstacle in cooperation in the space sector between America and China remains in the Wolf Amendment. If America really wants to start regular space cooperation, then it should take appropriate steps to remove this obstacle. China has said that it welcomes scientists from all countries in research and will share information with them.
