More than two thirds of the nation want to see the launch of Chang’e I, China’s first lunar orbiter live on TV, according to a survey.

According to the survey by China Youth Daily and www. qq. com, almost the entire nation want to catch images of the event at some point, with 99 percent of the 10,358 respondents saying they expected to witness the satellite launch and 68.9 percent saying they were certain to watch the live broadcast of the launch.

On www.qq.com and  www. sina. com, two popular web portals in the country, internet users have contributed some 2,000 poems and 5000 drawings on the theme of Chang’e I.

“The satellite launch means much more than just saying’ hello’ to the moon. Maybe in the future we could also send some people to accompany sister’ Chang’e’,” said a college student in the survey.

Remarkably, many people expect to visit the moon one day, with 93.4 percent of respondents saying they expected to do so.

Chang’e I is named after Chang’e, a famous character from Chinese mythology. She ascended from earth to live on the moon as a celestial being after drinking an elixir (灵丹妙药).

The satellite will be launched between Wednesday and Friday, with 6 pm today being the best choice, a spokesman for the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said on Monday. Preparations are almost completed for the launch of the country’s first lunar orbiter, according to a spokesman for the Xichang Satellite Launch Center.
