Now china want to be king in space industry, as they just said to start the construction special Chinese space station by the end of 2021 only

Chinese scientists are currently busy building a space station of their own. This comes as a direct retaliation to the space race dominance by NASA. The project currently uses many satellite links and aims to topple the International Space Station of NASA. The China Space Agency has currently started work to build a new space station from 2021. The schedule of the build includes 11 ambitious planned launches. But, the most important part is that it will reach completion in 2 years.

The 66-ton space station will host around 3 to 6 astronauts at any given time. Astronauts will have enough provision to last 6 months at a stretch. The space station will go live in 2023. The space station will be host to experiments ranging from space technology to zero-gravity biology.

The first quarter of 2022 will observe a heavy-lift Long March 5B spacecraft which made a controversial debut last year. The rocket’s main stage scattered across the Atlantic in a haphazard manner, which proved bad for the environment.
