中文摘要：

21世纪是人类全面探测太阳系的新时代，而月球探测是人类探测太阳系的历史开端。中国的月球探测，首先经历了35年的跟踪研究和积累。通过系统调研苏、美两国月球探测的进展，综合分析深空探测的技术进步与月球和行星科学的研究成果，适时总结与展望深空探测的走向与发展趋势。在此基础上，又经历了长达十年的科学目标与工程实现的综合论证，提出了我国月球探测的发展战略与愿景规划。2004年我国首次月球探测工程立项启动，经过三年多的工程实施，于2007年10月24日成功发射“嫦娥一号”月球探测卫星。目前我国探月工程二期和三期工程都已完成立项任务，正在按预定的计划节点稳步推进。到2020年前我国将实现月面软着陆与月球样品的采集与返回。

英文摘要：

Twenty-first Century is the new era that human beings make a comprehensive exploration on the Solar system, and the Moon exploration is the beginning of the exploration history. After 35 years of follow-up study and accumulation, China National Moon Exploration has performed system research on the progress of the United Sates and Soviet Moon exploration, aggregate analysis to the technology development of deep space exploration and the research results of Moon and planet science, summed up timely the growth trend of deep space exploration and prospected. On this basis, we have putted forward the development strategy of China National Moon Exploration and vision planning by comprehensive demonstration of scientific objective and project implementation for 10 years. China National Moon Exploration project had a start at 2004. After 3 years of project implementation, We launched the ＂Chang＇e I＂ lunar exploration satellite successfully in October 24, 2007. At present, China National Moon Ex- ploration project of phase two and phase three have been completed the project establishment, and everything is predetermined steadily according to the plan node. By 2020, China will realize the lunar surface soft landing and the collection-return of lunar samples.
