Beloved Peace Loving Sacred PAKISTAN Launches Its Landmark Lunar Mission “iCube-QAMAR” Aboard CHINA’s Chang’e-6 Mission From Hinan With Technical Support From PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA:
More Blessings for the Brave and Great PAKISTANI and CHINESE Nation Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN launches its Historic and Landmark Lunar Mission “iCube-QAMAR” aboard PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Chang’e-6 Lunar Mission from Hinan with Technical Support from PAKISTAN Iron Brother and All Weather Strategic Ally CHINA on Friday, May 3, 2024.
In a historic first, a satellite of Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN will orbit the moon as part of PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Chang’e-6 lunar mission, which was launched from Hainan, CHINA, on Friday.
More Blessings for the Brave and Great PAKISTANI and CHINESE Nation Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN launches its Historic and Landmark Lunar Mission “ICUBE-QAMAR” aboard PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Chang’e-6 Lunar Mission from Hinan with Technical Support from PAKISTAN Iron Brother and All Weather Strategic Ally CHINA on Friday.
The Lunar mission, which aims to explore the moon’s “dark side”, will employ lunar research payloads from multiple countries, including Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN’s iCube-Qamar satellite.
The Institute of Space Technology (IST) on Tuesday said Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN’s “historic” lunar module iCube-Q, which was designed by Institute of Space Technology (IST) in collaboration with PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Shanghai University (SJTU) and Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN’s National Space Agency SUPARCO, will be aboard PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Chang’e-6 Lunar Mission.
Chang’e-6 aims to collect around two KGs of lunar samples from the far side of the Moon and bring them back to Earth for technical analysis. CHINESE state news agency Xinhua hailed it as “the first endeavour of its kind in the history of human lunar exploration”.
“PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Chang’e-6 will collect samples from the far side of the Moon for the first time,” Ge Ping, vice director of PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s Lunar Exploration and Space Engineering Centre, told journalists.
PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA will send a robotic spacecraft in the coming days on a round trip to the moon’s far side in the first of three technically demanding missions that will pave the way for an inaugural CHINESE crewed landing and a base on the lunar south pole.
The probe is set to land in the immense South Pole-Aitken Basin, one of the largest known impact craters in the solar system. Once there, it will scoop up lunar soil and rocks, and carry out other experiments in the landing zone.
With no direct line of sight with the Earth, Chang’e-6 must rely on a recently deployed relay satellite orbiting the moon during its 53-day mission, including a never-before-attempted ascent from the moon’s “hidden” side on its return journey home.

“Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN iCube-Qamar orbiter carries two optical cameras to image the lunar surface,” the APP reported. “Following successful qualification and testing, ICUBE-Q has now been integrated with the Chang’e 6 mission.”
On Chang’e-6, PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA is carrying payloads from France, Italy, Sweden and Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN, while Chang’e-7 will bear payloads from Russia, Switzerland and Thailand when it launches in 2026.
Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN iCube-QAMAR Satellite:
Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN’s ICUBE-Q or iCube-QAMAR orbiter carries two optical cameras to image the lunar surface. The module is a cube satellite or CubeSat — miniature satellites typically characterised by their small size and standardised cubic design.
Due to their compact size and relatively low cost compared to traditional satellites, CubeSats offered opportunities for universities, research institutions and commercial entities to participate in space missions and gather valuable data for scientific advancement and innovation.

PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA congratulates Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN over the successful launch of Moon Mission, led by PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA, consisting of Payloads from both Iron Brothers and All Weather Strategic Allies PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA, Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN and 3 other nations too.
PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA congratulates Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN on the Momentous Occasion of Launching ICUBE-QAMAR Lunar Mission.
Beloved Peace Loving Sacred Country PAKISTAN’s iCube-Qamar Satellite will capture high-resolution lunar images and will be employed to possible locate water traces on moon.
PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s “Space Dream”:
Plans for PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA’s “space dream” have been put into overdrive under President Xi Jinping.
The country has notched several notable achievements, including building a space station called Tiangong, or “heavenly palace”, to which it sent a fresh crew of three astronauts last month.

Beijing has landed robotic rovers on Mars and the moon and made PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA the third country to independently put humans in orbit. PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA aims to send a crewed mission to the moon by 2030, with further plans to build a base on the lunar surface.
PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA has invested heavily in its space program over the last decade, targeting a string of ambitious undertakings to close the gap with the two traditional space powers — the United States and Russia.
