The Yutu-2 moon rover is seen by the Chang'e-4 lunar probe on the far side of the moon in this photo released by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) via CNS on Jan. 11, 2019. China will seek to establish an international lunar base one day, possibly using 3D printing technology to build facilities, the Chinese space agency said on Jan. 14, weeks after landing the rover on the moon's far side.
