The Yutu-2 explorer is on its way to launch. He has been exploring the far side of the moon since early 2019 as part of it China’s Chang’e-4 lunar lander mission. Now he set his sights on the strange cube-shaped object he saw from afar.
Andrew Jones, journalist covering China’s space program for space news And Space.com, highlighted New Rover update in a Friday’s tweet network. The nickname of this cube-shaped object translates to “mysterious house”.
Uh. We have updates from Yutu-2 on the far side of the Moon, including an image of the cube on the northern horizon 80 meters from the rover in the Von Karmann crater. Referred to as “神秘” (“mysterious house”), you will spend the next 2-3 days approaching the moon to examine it. pic.twitter.com/LWPZoWN05I

Yutu-2’s view of the cube is not clear and far away, so the true nature of the object will become clearer as the rover approaches. The most likely explanation is rock. This part of the Moon is full of impact craters, which can contain a lot of solid debris.
