中国为登月计划启用新式火箭

The Long March-6 was fired off on Sunday from a launch location in Shanxi.

长征6号运载火箭周日在陕西省发射成功。
 
It's fueled by liquid propellant made of liquid oxygen and kerosene, which is meant to cut down on pollution.
 
Meanwhile, a Long March-5 rocket has arrived in the Port of Tianjin.
 
While officials haven't said where that rocket is headed, its likely going to be shipped to Hainan for a launch later this year to test its capability to launch the Chang'e 5 lunar probe.
 
The unmanned probe is due to be sent to the moon in 2017.
