There were nearly no any experience in China on making grazing incidence X-ray telescopes In the late 1970’s Chinese Academy of Sciences launched a X-ray telescope project and in the early 1980’s, it was cancelled. In 2004, the plan for exploring Moon was started. In 2007, a EUV telescope worked on the Moon was planned. On Dec. 2, 2013, the EUV telescope was launched and now is in the orbit.
