great achievement
The edge of universe is the limit of the China space exploration , not the sky. China is definitely the center gravity of the future humanity . China is back…..
anti-jealous China to death Indians will be very angry ……
FUNNY THING 🤔 PEOPLE ARE LOOKING TO GET INTO SPACE N IGNORING WHAT’S ON THE GROUND 😳😬
Yes because Geologists don’t exist
Congrats to China!
That will inspire a lot of girls and boys in school, for sure. I saw a lot of great stuff shadowing engineers as a child. It’s nice to have to chance to really touch advanced technology yourself, and manifest something unselfish in your life. Space inspires kids.
As a Chinese, I can tell you that we have millions of new undergraduate and graduates in engineering and science every year. They are our source to develop the space and other high-technology on our own. In the past 4 decades, we exported 200 thousands of top 2 university elites to USA and they stay in USA . It is our big loss. During China economic development in the past 2 decades , more talented graduates decide to donate themselves to our country to develop space technology. You can see a lot of young Chinese scientists showing on the video . Space surely inspires kids and students to study& join the space programs in future .
Congratulations to China on successful launch of Wentian Science Lab Module to China’s futuristic space station.
Wishing China further success in its SPACE EXPLORATION PROGRAMME which is second to none in the world. 🇦🇫💓🇨🇳
That’s not Afghanistan flag.
After the Taliban take over of Afghanistan with the help of brave & mighty Pakistan Army your flag is this – 🏳️
Amazing achievements for PRC. Very proud. Looking forward to seeing great sucess in space program further.
China is not catching up with US space programme because China’s space programme is ahead of US space programme by far and significantly more advanced than US’s. 🇦🇫💓🇨🇳
China doesn’t boast nor bluff. Better take China seriously. Whenever west ban China on anything, it will hurt China for a short while. But in the end, China will come out victorious. Bravo China 🇨🇳
This 23+ tons lab is the largest and heaviest module China launched and the first time docking with space station with astronauts on board. Congratulations from Los Angeles.
China pakistan best friend.
We r happy.
Yes you guys have a lot in common, enjoy 😉
Iron brother. Not friend.
I’m sure Pakistans will be among the first to join China’s space station.
Who this Clown?
Congratulations to China, only country to have its own independent Space Station 👍
US can’t compete anymore!!
Congratulations to all Chinese for your country’s great achievement.
Competition in space seems to be the only thing that motivates governments to invest in space exploration, so I as a Dutch applaud every effort to become the best at space travel. I’m glad more countries have a space programme of their own.
great achievements
The Wentian lab module join the Tianhe core module in orbit and the Mengtian lab module will follow suit in October. It is a good opportunity for scientific experiments and new discovery. Since 1987, China has been taking seeds of rice and other crops to space on spacecraft to help them mutate and produce higher yields once planted on Earth. The experiment cabinets installed on Wentian lab module can support experiments on life and ecology, biotechnology, and varying-gravity science research. They can also be used in the response mechanism research on the growth, development, heredity and aging of plants, animals and microorganisms, as well as the research on closed ecosystems. Step by step, China is progressing well in space exploration and scientific experiments. Slowly and steadily, China’s space station will serve scientific research as versatile lab. China’s Tiangong space station, designed to be a versatile space lab, is capable of accommodating 25 experiment cabinets for scientific exploration. Each cabinet is a small-sized lab in space, capable of supporting single subject or interdisciplinary research in space science experiments. During the construction phase of the space station, nearly 100 experimental research projects have been planned. Congratulations China.
🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
Nice bit of kit, I think I’d buy one to clean skid marks off my toilet.
China should explore resource Helium 3 in moon as next generation nuclear power.
lets create more research, not war.
Researches are done to fight wars. Economically atleast.
Lmao. I’m sure america sold out and helped them.. encase these billion idiots don’t realize nothing flies in outer space with out oxygen. God created one heaven one earth. Nothing lives in space either. There problems solved
tsssk………
It’s time for the Chinese to start building a lunar home, but the Americans seem to be left out by the Chinese. lol
We are witnessing the abject Failure of The USA to try and Internationalize their 1790’s Racist Chinese/China Exclusion Acts with the help of Australia, Canada, EU, Japan and UK etc etc
Super GO.
There are two space stations .
1) International space station which collaboration by 15 countries.
2) China space station developed by Chinese themselves.
@StickHits with Americans drill holes in Russian modules. With team members like that, I prefer sail myself
@Mc C Evidence?
amazing china!
China is the only country can build a space station in space today. There is no one to catch up to. America already landed man on the moon 60 years ago, anyone feel any threat? It’s up to the country if they want to spend money on endless wars or to land on Mars isn’t it?
Tiangong, not Taingong😁😁😁
The West really have to change their mindset that once another race excel in something, they will do something bad that the West would have done. For eg, whenever a rising western power rise up, other neighbouring would think that the rising power would gobble up them, thus has to be dealt with because of fear, geopolitics or whatever reason. China is nothing like this. This is thank to the 3 philosophical tradition that the Chinese has embraced: Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism. And these 3 hold one common value:Harmony. But the West always think if China rises up, they would behave like what the past colonial powers or US would behave. The mindset is completely different.
It’s a real shame America, China don’t work together on the space program, we could cut the time down to send humans to Mars and beyond
Congratulations to the success of the Chinese space program .
Congratulations to the great people of China from Ethiopia. The selfish imperialist USA thoughT they could stop you from space but you have done it almost over night. The west is greedy evil. They will never succeed in ruling the world now with the rise of China and the re_emergence of Russia.
Congratulations!
lesson to Asians, work for your country, don’t let USA brain drain from Asia any more, then USA will not have enough strength to bark.
Got to give credit where/when credit is due, China did send the 1st rocket🚀 into the air, albeit for entertainment & fireworks displays..😄
600 years ago in Chinese Ming empire, there was a guy called 万户。He was the first human attempt to fly with rockets. He died after the crush.
Nah, all modern day fire weapons all had their Chinese origins. Chinese land mine霹雷火球, Chinese sea mine混江龙, Chinese missiles火龙出水, Chinese gernade 万人敌,Chinese fire thrower 猛火油柜,Chinese tank 武钢车,Chinese rockets launchers 百虎齐奔,Chinese RPG一窝蜂,Chinese sniper rifle九头鸟,Chinese M224 mortar虎蹲炮。。。。those weapons existed 500 -600 years ago, had same function but less sophisticated as world war 2 weapons
Where is American space station❓
The phonetic transcription in Latin is TIANgong which means “celestial palace” in Chinese and not TAINgong!
What can you expect of any Anglo-Saxon trained so-called journalists? They could hardly speak their one language well.
NB
India did it 20 years ago ISS=Indian Space Station jai Hindi
No it didn’t .
Arab did it 20 years ago ISS=Iranian Space Station
删了吧,你都搞不清伊朗和阿拉伯,还在这里拉仇恨,你是香港人吧。
And this will inspire a little Chinese all over a China to come and help build a future. Their future are very bright a head. They have the most important resources of all kind is a ‘human’ with Asian level brain. Nothing impossible now. Hard working like a bee and hungry to make their country proud with unlimited fund…
Superb!!
China🇨🇳 should try to work smarter, not harder
– by not sending 12 payloads to complete a useless space station.
Cry louder bruh
Cry about it
When China’s🇨🇳 space station is mentioned, people think of
*- an uncontrolled rocket about to fall onto their head.*
Sour words 😂😂😂
BRAVO !!!!! China !!!!!!
Congratulations! Not sure if they would let the US use it when the ISS decommission.
不会的,美国人会触犯他们的法律,沃尔夫条款。我们担心美国航天员,他们很擅长戳洞。
Wait till Xuntian is launched, in which it has the capability to dock with space station. Moreover, it is designed to be 300 times more powerful than current Hubble telescope. Amazing indeed, to witness the speed China is going. Many in the West are still having the impression/brainwashed by its own media to think Chineses are still wearing pigtail, poor, dirty, undeveloped, uneducated and mostly importantly oppressed by their government awaiting Western Heroic Salvation. In fact, not just China many parts of the world have grown up too.
Science will triumph
Nasa always make people stupid .
China will give us real information
Long live China and God bless Chinese people! May China continue to succeed in the years to come!
“can China catch up with India in space race?” CNN *
Everyone is invited to the heavenly palace…..Except Yankees!!🤣
I’m American and salute the Chinese astronauts!This station is impressive
🇨🇳🤝🇺🇸
Thank you so much 🙂 I wish Chinese & American people’s friendship won’t be affected by political BS. There are a lot of good & bad people on both places as anywhere else,.
@F C they are friend but not government
Not astronaut…taikonaut
China is now a threat?
Very lustrous desires draconian hahhaha
Meanwhile nasa is building another Hollywood studio to feature Americans landing on Pluto in the future! Hurray to the Yankees!!!
NASA and ESA don’t sleep ….wake up….
Congratulations china. But U.s is seen this development threat on world stage. From Somalia
US wants to privatized space by only working with RICH countries that already had presence in space and technology to run contribute to a space program. thanks to america’s encoragement (by banning china to join the ISS), China is now building a smaller but much more advanced and efficient (thanks to technology) space station and they will allow poorer nations to cooperate in space exploration in different ways, they know wts it is like to be excluded from the club and how poorer developing nations can be inspired and benefited by joining a space program.
NASA laughed and mocked at the little boy CNSA , when he played all alone by himself in his little sandbox, heavily sanctioned and banned from all forms of contacts and cooperation with NASA!
A few years later, under those adverse environment, CNSA grew up and built for herself a nice little “Heavenly Palace”, which NASA threatened again for the second times with more sanctions, if it were not open and share under the command of… you guessed who?… NASA the BULLY!
I never see CNN or BBC report these project,did they blind for this?
Hasn’t the United States been clamoring for fierce competition with China? China is now showing the United States what real competition is in all areas. Before the end of this year, China will complete the construction of the space station. The China Space Administration has announced that the Chinese space station is open to countries all over the world (17 countries have been approved by the first cooperators), with the only exception of the United States.
Hi, could you please point out the source of this information to me?
First and foremost, China has to thank the US for making this possible.
Whenever the US complains whatever China is doing, it simply means China is doing things right.
For any countries to know whether they are doing the right thing,the Gold Standard of measurement is ‘When the US complains ‘ .
Congratulations for showing the world that, you’re self dependable
Every time when the US tried to stop China but China won’t give up and as always, in the end, she will still succeed. Thank you US, you just created a MONSTER…
I know the CCP and China in general can’t be trusted, but I still like to see this because it leads citizens to have an interest in science, which develops critical thinkers, that eventually may start to question the government and one day lead to a democratic revolution.
You’re the one who really needs to question your polictial system which fails so badly. But I’m really glad if you won’t because it’s not China’s loss after all.
perfect china
Don’t worry Americans. Those were all plastic models and 3D CG. Like the J-20 stealth fighter jet, they just don’t exist. Also the people on the beach cheering for the fake launch were all paid actors. Don’t let these fake news disturb your greatest American Dream. 😘
good job china,love from ASEAN
I prefer the US space journalist laughing it off again. The whole Chinese space station thing should have been a huge hoax, in his opinion.
While Ukraine, Russia, US NATO beating each other…China focus on building and sending more Chinese to the moon and get the juicy resources.
Pretty much China mindset is, “oh you ban us? no worries, we make our own” baaammm there you go.
Freedom and normal life for Uyghurs!!!
well, they have that in real life. but they do have a terrible life in western Media.
Real Uyghurs: wtf…
The perfect example of “fine, I will do it myself”.
The “expert” is wrong. China has exceeded the number of US launches, where it lags behind is in tonnage launched.
Yes , especially for one – go technical engineering and robot arm to show more advancement…
Chinese culture do first, talk later. Many chinese youngsters are in science subjects in school since 1980s. The amount of university students in these subjects is at least 20 times more than US.
Congratulations to Chinese space program!
Congratulations, China!
China steal the tech in advance.
اول طريق النجاح هو عدم الاعتماد على امريكا مثل تركيا فى الطائرات المسيرة والصين فى الالكترونات والتكنولوجيات العالية الاخرى
I see China rocket during launch is very stable. Every time they launch rocket, it is successful. It seems China mastered rocket technology.
I feel China recent success in high technology is due to affordable university education there. University education in China is about 12 times more affordable than in US. Almost all universities in China are public. Tuition fee per year is about US$900 across the board and on camp accommodation available for every student is US$220 per year. Total is $1120 for one year tuition and accommodation for studying university in China. $1120 is about median monthly pay in China. One month pay in China can pay one year university study including tuition fee and accommodation. Every year there are 10 million students who graduate from universities in China. But You never heard student loan in China as parents can pay them easily from their savings.
anyone has a knowledge about the number of people in Chinese community party?let me tell the latest number is 98million people which is larger than the number in parties combined by USA plus Japan plus main countries in Europe.
2011: China has been barred from the ISS since 2011, when Congress passed a law prohibiting official American contact with the Chinese space program due to concerns about national security.
2022 April 27: NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said on Tuesday China continues to display a lack of transparency and willingness to cooperate with the United States in China space station.
[You are not allow to access my house , but you must allow me to access you house]😅
Never ask women her age
Neve ask men his salary
Never ask USA about its hypocrisy
US excluded itself in fair competition and eventually it will lose its hegemony.
Russian crew space ship docking technology can achieve 4.5 hours fast docking after launch, Chinese crew spaceship can dock after 6.5 hours, it took Americans 24-48 hours to dock. LoL what a technology advantage!
nasty mistype there, brothers
China’s Principle if you can’t Join them Beat them
7-26 , Russia to withdraw from International Space Station after 2024
2011 is the Sputnik moment for the China…
Tian gong not Tain gong;; The media need to learn more Chinese and don’t make low-level mistakes!
Why would the USA deny cooperating with China?
China was the best of all the students and the teacher excluded him for selfish reasons.
No matter how much the Western media smear China, it cannot change the fact that they are getting stronger and stronger. No wonder the western media smear China like crazy. The only country that has its own space station is China.
The epitome of self help is the best help
Fantastic …
