Tiangong is China's space station, designed to support scientific research and international collaboration in space. It is a modular station, meaning it can be expanded with additional modules over time. The first module, Tianhe, was launched in April 2021, serving as the core living and working area for astronauts.
The station is expected to host various experiments in fields like biology, physics, and astronomy. With the ability to accommodate three astronauts at a time, Tiangong aims to enhance our understanding of space and contribute to global efforts in space exploration, similar to the International Space Station.
