This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.The rocket that will send three crew members to start living on China’s new orbiting space station has been moved onto the launch pad ahead of its planned blast-off next week.
The space agency plans a total of 11 launches through the end of next year to deliver two laboratory modules to expand the 70-ton station, along with supplies and crew members. Next week’s launch will be the third of those, and the first of the four crewed missions planned. It landed a probe, the Tianwen-1, on Mars last month that carried a rover, the Zhurong. China also has brought back lunar samples, the first by any country’s space program since the 1970s, and landed a probe and rover on the moon’s less explored far side.
