SHANGHAI: A Chinese astronaut could land on the moon between 2025 and 2030, Ye Peijian, director of the country's Moon Exploration Project, said on Friday. Before that, the country will send spacecraft to collect samples from the moon by 2017, Ye said. Chang'e-I, China's first lunar probe, impacted the moon in March after its 16-month mission.
