China offers glimpse of the first moon samples brought back to Earth in more than 45 years

China has shared a look at the first moon samples to be brought back to Earth in more than 45 years. The lunar regolith was collected by the nation s Chang e 5 mission that returned in December with 3.8 pounds of soil and rocks from our natural satellite. The images show the samples as small as dust particles up to larger chunks, along  with samples inside a crystal container that will go on display at the National Museum of China. The container is designed like a ritual Chinese wine vessel, or zun, and holds the lunar dust within a hallow sphere that represents both the moon and the Chang 5 re-entry capsule.

[Photo provided to China Daily] A sample of lunar soil brought back by China s Chang e 5 mission late last year was added to the collection of the National Museum of China on Feb 22, and will be available for public viewing in March according to the Beijing-based museum. The museum also revealed photos showing a specially-designed container to keep the soil for display. The synthetic quartz holder replicates zun, a supreme bronze wine vessel often used for grand ceremonies in the Shang (c.16th century-11th century BC) and Zhou (c.11th century-771 BC) dynasties. The soil will be placed in a hollow globe at the center of the holder.
