Just watched the real time broadcast in our office.
China's first Moon Probe was launched. It should arrive Moon very soon.
The time was 18:05.
Now it is on the way - good luck and have a good trip to the Moon!
About Chang‘e
Chang'e is not word "change". Let me explain how you should pronounce it.
Chang should be pronounced like ch-ong, with Ch pronounced as "ch" in "children". "ang" should be pronounced as “ong" in "long".
The letter "e" should be pronounced as the ”ear" part of "earth".
Chang-e is also called the Moon Lady. In the old story, Chang-e lived on earth and then she flied to the moon and lived there with her small rabbit.
The Illustration
Here is the illustration of the probe course on Sohu.com.

I'd really like to spend some time on the sohu website reading, but i can't take their loud music and effects! It seems like it would be so easy to add a volume control or at least a mute button....
