SOUNDBITE (Chinese): LIU GANG, Deputy chief designer of China manned space program's space station system with China Academy of Space Technology STORYLINE: According to the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA), the Mengtian lab module has successfully docked with China's Tiangong space station combination. Mengtian, Tiangong's second lab module, docked with the front port of Tianhe, the space station's core module, at 4:27 a.m. Tuesday (Beijing Time) after it entered the planned orbit. The Mengtian module, together with Tianhe core module and Wentian lab module, will form the space station's basic configuration in T shape. Carrying eight science experiment cabinets and offering 37 extravehicular installation options, Mengtian will enable more in-cabin and out-of-cabin experiments, especially those f

STORY: Mengtian lab module in 60 seconds DATELINE: Oct. 31, 2022 LENGTH: 00:01:00 LOCATION: WENCHANG, China CATEGORY: SCIENCE SHOTLIST: 1. various of Mengtian lab module STORYLINE: China's Long March-5B Y4 carrier rocket, carrying space station lab module Mengtian, blasted off from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in Hainan Province on Monday. Mengtian is the second lab module of China's Tiangong space station. Consisting of a work cabin, a cargo airlock cabin, a payload cabin and a resource cabin, it is the heaviest single-cabin active spacecraft in orbit in the world right now. It will join the combination of core module Tianhe and lab module Wentian in space to form the planned T-shape layout at the space station's completion. The building of Tiangong into a national space laboratory with three modules marks a milestone in China's three-decade effort to advance its manned space program.
