Probe's 1st orbital correction
嫦娥五號第1次軌道修正

China's lunar probe Chang'e 5 successfully carried out its first orbital correction Tuesday night, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA). The probe conducted the orbital correction at 10:06 pm when its 3000N engine was operational for about two seconds, and then continued its trip to the moon.
來自國家航天局的消息，11月24日22時06分，嫦娥五號探測器3000牛發動機工作約2秒鐘，順利完成第一次軌道修正，繼續飛向月球。

Prior to the orbital correction, the lunar probe had traveled for roughly 17 hours in space, and was about 160,000 km away from Earth. All of the probe's systems were in good condition, said the CNSA.
截至第一次軌道修正前，嫦娥五號探測器各系統狀態良好，已在軌飛行約17個小時，距離地球約16萬公里。

Orbital correction is necessary to ensure the probe follows its theoretical trajectory as closely as possible, said the CNSA.
國家航天局表示，軌道修正是爲了確保探測器始終飛行在適當的軌道上。

China launched the lunar probe at 4:30 am Tuesday to collect and return samples from the moon.
11月24日4時30分，嫦娥五號探測器發射升空，開啓赴月採樣之旅。

It is the country's first attempt to retrieve samples from an extraterrestrial body.
這是我國首次地外天體採樣返回任務。
