Construction of space station is an important milestone in aerospace cause and will make pioneering contributions to the peaceful use of space by mankind.
On May 5, 2020, the Long March 5B carrier rocket was ignited and launched at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in my country. The first flight mission was a complete success. my country's space station was in orbit, and the construction mission began.

On April 29, 2021, at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in my country, the Long March 5 B Yao-2 launch vehicle successfully sent the first section of the space station: Tianhe core module into space.
On May 29, Tianhe Core Cabin, which had just entered orbit for one month, welcomed its first visitor. Tianzhou 2 cargo spacecraft adopts independent and rapid rendezvous and docking method to accurately connect to the backward port of Tianhe Core Cabin to form a combination.
html June 17th. Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft adopts the autonomous rapid rendezvous and docking mode to successfully connect with the forward port of Tianhe core cabin. Shenzhou 12 flight crew became the first astronauts to station in China's space station.
Shenzhou 12 successfully launched
July 4, after about 7 hours of out-of-cabin activities, the Shenzhou 12 astronauts and crew worked closely together to successfully complete all the established tasks during the out-of-cabin activities. Astronauts Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo safely returned to Tianhe core cabin, marking the successful success of the first out-of-cabin activity of astronauts in my country's space station stage. Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo left the cabin from the space station for the first time, which took 6 hours and 46 minutes. Nie Haisheng was on duty in the cabin and was responsible for operating the robot arm and collaborating with out-of-cabin operations.
htmlOn August 20, Nie Haisheng and Liu Boming left the cabin, and Tang Hongbo was on duty in the cabin and coordinated the operation outside the cabin. It took about 6 hours, completing the established task by about 1 hour ahead of schedule. htmlOn September 17, Shenzhou 12 separated from the space station assembly and embarked on the return journey.

On September 20, Tianzhou 3 was lifted off at Hainan Wenchang Space Launch Site . The well adopts a rapid rendezvous and docking mode, thus successfully realizing docking with the core module of the space station, transferring the core module of the people, Tianzhou 2 , and Tianzhou 3 combination flight status.
On October 16, Shenzhou 13 successfully connected to the radial port of Tianhe core cabin using the autonomous rapid rendezvous and docking mode, forming a four-cabin (ship) combination with the space station.
On April 16, 2022, after completing two out-of-cabin activities, two " Tiangong Classroom " space teaching, and a number of scientific and technological (test) tests, the Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft successfully landed at at the Dongfeng landing ground. At this point, all the established tasks in the key technology verification stage of China's space station have been completed.
Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft
On May 10, the Long March 7 Yaowu carrier rocket carrying the Tianzhou 4 cargo spacecraft was successfully launched at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in my country. This is the first launch mission of my country's space station construction from the key technology verification stage to the on-orbit construction stage.
On June 5, the Shenzhou 14 manned spacecraft was successfully launched at , the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. About 7 hours later, the spacecraft successfully completed the independent rapid rendezvous and docking with the Tianhe core compartment. Three astronauts, Chen Dong, Liu Yang, and Cai Xuzhe, successfully entered the Tianhe core compartment.
On July 24, the second section of the China Space Station, the Wentian Experimental Cabinet, was successfully launched.

On September 30, after about 1 hour of heaven and earth coordination, the Wentian experimental cabin was transferred. The space station assembly has changed from a two-cabin "One" configuration to a two-cabin "L" configuration. This is the first time in my country that the indexing mechanism is used to carry out large-scale cabin indexing operations in orbit.
On October 31, the Long March 5 B Yao-4 carrier rocket , equipped with the space station Mengtian experimental module, was launched at the Wenchang Space Launching Site in my country.
November 1, Mengtian Experimental Cabin was connected to the forward port of Tianhe Core Cabin, and the entire rendezvous and docking process took about 13 hours.
On November 3, the Mengtian Experimental Cabin completed its transfer, and the basic configuration of the Chinese space station "丅" character was assembled.
Shenzhou No. 15
November 12, the Tianzhou No. 5 cargo spacecraft was ignited and launched at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in my country.
On November 29, the Shenzhou 15 manned spacecraft flew to the China Space Station with astronauts and "meeted" in space with the Shenzhou 14 astronauts. The China Space Station was fully built, achieving the first flight of six spacecraft combinations, and for the first time, six astronauts in two crews were in orbit at the same time.
May the motherland's aerospace industry develop better and better, and our goal is to have a sea of stars!
