Visitors take pictures of the lunar soil samples retrieved by China's Chang'e 5 mission on display at Sci Power for Future Thailand Fair in Bangkok, Thailand, Tuesday. YANG WANLI/CHINA DAILY

Lunar soil samples collected by Chinese spacecraft Chang'e 5 have generated much interest among visitors to a fair in Bangkok — the first overseas destination of the lunar soil samples.

The National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand collaborated with the China National Space Administration, or CNSA, to bring the samples to the Thai capital. (Video)

The moon soil samples, weighing 75 milligrams, are placed in a crystal ball that can be rotated for a 360-degree viewing, and equipped with magnifying lenses to help viewers see the samples better.

The display, titled "The Moon Shines Bright On My Return", is 17 centimeters in width, and represents the culmination of China's 17-year effort to land on the moon and collect soil and rock samples.
