About the Cover: A widely acclaimed feat, the Chang’e-6 mission brought home samples from the far side of the Moon (lunar farside), for the first time in human history. This heralds a series of discoveries about the once inaccessible lunar hemisphere, including those leading the list of the annual top 10 science advances of China for the year 2024 (see pages 17 and 42). Here illustrated are the ancient volcanism episodes on the lunar farside occurring 4.2 and 2.8 billion years ago, respectively, as revealed from the sample analyses. (Image: IGG)
