China's first fixed-wing aircraft for Antarctic research has been delivered by a U.S. producer and will be deployed in the country's 32nd scientific expedition to Antarctica. The red-and-white aircraft is printed with the logo of the State Oceanic Administration and "CHINARE", which represents the China national Antarctic and Arctic research expedition.
Mount Qomolangma has moved 40 centimeters to the northeast over the past ten years, with its height increasing by three centimeters, the National Administration of Surveying, Mapping and Geoinformation said Monday. Monitoring data collected by the department from 2005 to 2015 shows that the mountain has been moving at a speed of four centimeters per year and has been growing by 0.3 centimeters annually.
