Storyline


China will launch an extension module at an appropriate time and upgrade the basic configuration of the space station from the current T shape to a cross shape, announced a senior official from the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) on Wednesday.

The extension module will install space science experiment cabinets and large extra-vehicular experiment equipment in multiple fields with expanded application scale to meet the new needs of space science research and application, said Lin Xiqiang, deputy director of the CMSA, at a press conference on Shenzhou-17 manned space mission.

"According to the plan, in the future, we will launch the Xuntian Space Telescope orbiting with the space station to conduct wide-field view survey observation. Later, we will launch extension module in due course, upgrading the basic configuration of the space station from a T shape to a cross shape," said Lin.

"We plan to upload space science experimental cabinets and large extra-vehicular experiment equipment in multiple fields to the extension module, expanding the application scale and meeting new needs of space science research and application. Meanwhile, we will upgrade the facilities and equipment related to astronauts' in-orbit protection, exercise, diet and hygiene to improve the support for their work, life and health. Now, the project plan is under research," said Lin.

The Xuntian Space Telescope, also known as the Chinese Survey Space Telescope, is a space-based optical observatory for astronomers to carry out sky surveys, capturing a general map or images of the sky.

The Shenzhou-17 crewed spaceship is scheduled to be launched at 11:14 Thursday (Beijing Time) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China.

The spaceship will take a crew of three astronauts into space. They will stay in space for about six months for the manned mission on China's Tiangong Space Station.
