China's first lunar probe landed on the moon on sunday and this was the first step towards its plans to its first man to be sent to the moon. The satellite which is named as "Chang e" was launched into the space on October 24, 2007 and sent back its first full map just one month back. This was the first phase of China's three stage moon mission which will lead to the landing and launching of a rover vehicle around 2012.
