In this episode, we embark on an enchanting tale about the first woman to journey to the moon, Chang’E. While some may refer to her as a woman, she is, in fact, a goddess. The story of Chang E's celestial voyage is intertwined with the Mid-Autumn Festival, a time when moon cakes are enjoyed and the moon is admired. We dive into the rich imagination of ancient Chinese people, who not only envisioned Chang’E residing on the moon but also imagined a moon palace and the woodcutter Wu Gang tirelessly chopping down a cassia tree. They also explore how modern-day speculations about the moon range from it being an alien base to a spaceship monitoring Earth.
