The combination of the Mengtian experimental module and the rocket is transferred to the launch area and will be launched at the right time.
CTOnews.com, October 25, according to thepaper.cn, the combination of the Mengtian experimental module and the long March 5B remote four carrier rocket is being transferred to the launch area and will be launched.
The official Xuan of the Mengtian experimental module will be launched in October. After the launch, the Mengtian experimental module will eventually form a T configuration with the Tianhe core module and the third module of the Mengtian experimental module, which also marks the completion of the National Space Laboratory.
After that, China will also carry out the launch missions of Tianzhou V cargo spacecraft and Shenzhou 15 manned spacecraft. Among them, the flight crew of the Shenzhou 15 manned spacecraft is composed of three astronauts, who will work and live in orbit for six months after completing the on-orbit rotation with the Shenzhou 14 astronauts.
At present, the Shenzhou-14 crew maintains the space station assembly to prepare for the visit of the Mengtian experimental module.
CTOnews.com learned that the Mengtian experimental module is mainly for microgravity scientific research, equipped with experimental cabinets with multi-disciplinary directions such as fluid physics and material science, and supports the study of the essential laws of materials such as the solidification mechanism of materials under the cover of gravity, as well as cutting-edge experimental research such as ultra-cold atomic physics.
