China has previously said its lunar base will likely be powered by nuclear energy, and will include a lander, hopper, orbiter and rover, all of     4    would be constructed by the Chang’e 6, 7 and 8 missions. It wasn’t immediately clear in the interview     5     the entire base will be built with lunar soil.

“Eentually, building habitation     6     the Earth is essential not only for all humanity’s quest for space exploration, but also for China’s    7     (strategy) needs as a space power,” Ding said in a separate interview.

The moon is believed     8     (contain) a source of waste-free nuclear energy that could meet global energy demands for 250 years, meaning potentially hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of resources.
