The space station is a third-generation modular space station. First-generation space stations, such as early Salyut, Almaz, and Skylab, were single-piece stations and not designed for resupply. Second generation Salyut 6 and 7, and Tiangong 1 and 2 stations, are designed for mid-mission resupply. Third-generation stations, such as Mir and the International Space Station, are modul…
China is not the only country interested in harvesting solar power in space—an idea first mooted in the late 1960s by space pioneer Peter Glaser. Scientists from the California Institute of Technology are working on a prototype capable of harnessing and transmitting solar energy from space using lightweight tiles.
The announcement from China Manned Space, the country''s human spaceflight agency onJan. 14 comes as China gears up for the construction phase of its own, three-module space station.
