On February 12, 2025, the China Manned Space Agency announced the official names of the spacesuit and lunar rover for China’s manned lunar exploration mission. They are named “Wangyu” and “Tansuo”.
The name “Wangyu” means “gazing at the universe and exploring the unknown.” It shows the Chinese astronauts’ mission to look into space and start new journeys on the moon.

The rover can be folded and is made of different parts. It can carry two astronauts and move quickly over rough ground. It can also help with navigation, safety, communication, and carrying things.

On February 12, 2025, the China Manned Space Agency announced the official names of the spacesuit and lunar rover for China’s manned lunar exploration mission. They are named “Wangyu” and “Tansuo”.
The name “Wangyu” means “gazing at the universe and exploring the unknown.” It shows the Chinese astronauts’ mission to look into space and start new journeys on the moon. From “Feitian” spacesuit to “Wangyu” it shows China’s plan to move from working in space to landing on the moon. The name also shows China’s peaceful use of space and its efforts to build a community with a shared future for humanity.
The lunar rover is named “Tansuo”, which means “exploration”. This name shows the rover’s job to help Chinese people explore the mysteries of the moon. The rover can be folded and is made of different parts. It can carry two astronauts and move quickly over rough ground. It can also help with navigation, safety, communication, and carrying things. It will help astronauts do scientific research and tests on the moon.
The names were chosen from more than 9,000 entries in a public competition. They are full of Chinese culture and modern spirit. From “Chang’e” and “Yutu” to “Tianwen” and “Zhurong,” and now “Wangyu” and “Tansuo,” the names of China’s spacecraft always connect traditional culture with modern technology. They show China’s spirit of exploration and innovation.
Right now, “Wangyu” and “Tansuo” are in the early stages of development. China plans to send people to the moon before 2030. The mission will test key technologies like traveling between the Earth and the moon, staying on the moon for a short time, and working together with robots. The astronauts will do many tasks like landing, exploring, collecting samples, researching, and bringing things back to Earth.
The names “Wangyu” and “Tansuo” mark a new step in China’s space exploration. They are not only the results of China’s space technology but also symbols of the Chinese people’s spirit of exploring the universe.
26. What does the name “Wangyu” symbolize?
A. The rover’s ability to move quickly on the moon.
B. The astronauts’ mission to explore space and the moon.
C. The opposite between traditional culture and modern technology.
D. The competition to name the spacesuit and rover.
27. What can we know about the “Tansuo” lunar rover?
A. It is designed to carry only one astronaut.
B. It is mainly used for communication purposes.
C. It cannot move over rough ground.
D. It can help astronauts perform scientific tasks on the moon.

B. It aims to compete with other countries for space dominance.
C. It combines traditional culture with modern technology.
D. It has no plans for manned lunar missions.
29. What can we know about the names “Wangyu” and “Tansuo”?
