"Attention, all units, this is Beijing. According to the judgment of Beijing real-time telemetry data monitoring, the docking mechanisms of Wentian lab module and the core module have been locked, the combination has been formed and controlled, and the rendezvous and docking has been completed normally. The follow-up work will be implemented according to the normal flight control plan."

The successful docking between the Wentian lab module and the Tianhe core module of China's space station marked the first time the country has managed to link two 20-ton-level spacecraft in orbit, and also the first time the space station has welcomed an incoming spacecraft while housing astronauts.

A Long March-5B Y3 carrier rocket, carrying Wentian, blasted off from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on the coast of the southern island province of Hainan at 14:22 (Beijing Time) on Sunday, according to the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA).

About 13 hours later, the lab module docked with the front port of Tianhe, the core module of China's space station, at 03:13 Monday (Beijing Time), after it entered its planned orbit and completed the state setting.
"It can be said that the whole process was very successful with our strong command, accurate control and smooth coordination. The assembly and construction of China's space station has taken another substantive key step," said Zou Xuemei, chief engineer of the Wentian lab module mission at Beijing Aerospace Control Center.

After the successful docking, Wentian's solar wings unfolded for a second time.

"The Wentian lab module has very large flexible solar wings of 110 square meters and a power generation capacity of 18 kilowatts from the two panels. This can provide great power supply to relevant payloads. The laboratory module has eight load cabinets, which are guaranteed by the powerful power supply system," said Qu Xi, deputy chief designer of the Wentian lab module.

At 10:03 (Beijing Time), the Shenzhou-14 astronauts, who were previously stationed in the Tianhe core module, opened the hatch door of Wentian and entered the lab module.

As planned, the astronauts will conduct in-orbit work such as the altitude control of the combination of the space station, small mechanical arm crawls and the testing of the complex of big and small arms.

They will also use the airlock cabin and the small mechanical arm of Wentian to carry out extravehicular activities.

"This is the second working and living module that we have in space. The construction of China's space station has taken another big step. We couldn't be prouder or happier," said Chen Dong, commander of the Shenzhou-14 spaceflight mission.

The successful launch of the Wentian lab module marks a crucial step forward in China's space station construction, which is expected to be completed this year.

The space station will then evolve from a single-module structure into a national space laboratory with three modules, the core module Tianhe, and lab modules Wentian and Mengtian, the last of which is set to be launched in October.

"After the docking of the Wentian module, the astronauts have one more cabin for their in-orbit work. This will greatly increase their in-orbit work items and improve their working environment," said Liu Weibo, a research fellow with the China Astronaut Research and Training Center and deputy chief designer of the astronaut system.
