A report by SpaceFlightNow suggets China's Chang'e 3 mission, which will take a robotic rover to the surface of the Moon (not to be confused with the Mun), might liftoff as early as next Sunday (Dec 1st):

Chinese moon lander on the verge of launch

China already successfully sent two lunar probes, and is now attempting a soft landing as part of its Moon exploration program. It's so nice to see new players (China, India) joining the space club.

I opened this thread so we can follow up on this.

Good to hear, I was starting to wonder if they were going to lauch it in December or not, and then it's suddenly just a couple of days away. It's kind of odd how they chose to keep the launch schedle secret until now.

There was an thread already, though: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/50149-Moon-landing-2013-%28Chang-e-3%29/page8
