SPACE SCIENCE: CHINA RELEASES FIVE YEAR PLAN FOR SPACE
EXPLORATION
China plans to launch orbital space laboratories and manned
ships and prepare to build space stations over the next five
years. This according to a plan released Thursday, December
29th that shows the country's space program is very quickly
gathering momentum.
China has already said its eventual goals are to have a
space station on-orbit and put an astronaut on the moon.
According to news reports, that nation has made systematic
progress with its ambitious human spaceflight programs, but
its latest five-year plan beginning signals a major
acceleration to its space exploration program.
According to the white paper setting out China's space
progress and future missions, by the end of 2016 China says
that it will launch space laboratories, manned spaceships
and ship freighters. It will also make technological
preparations for the construction of more than one space
station.
China's space program has already made major breakthroughs
in a relatively short time, although it lags far behind the
United States and Russia in space technology and experience.
