China has completed an in-orbit upgrade of its BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), further enhancing global navigation services. The 50-satellite constellation provides positioning accuracy better than 10 metres and timing precision within 20 nanoseconds.

🛰️ STAR.VISION is preparing to launch its OSE Hyperspectral Twin Satellites from the coast of Shandong, China, on August 5. Onboard a Smart Dragon-3 (Jielong-3 / SD-3) rocket. The mission will deploy Lampung-1 and Samarkand 2028, expanding international space cooperation...🧵

🚀 Launching from a sea platform off Shandong, carried by a Smart Dragon-3 rocket. China's STAR.VISION OSE Hyperspectral Twin Satellites are set to enter orbit on August 5. The mission will deploy advanced Earth-observation satellites powered by hyperspectral imaging and onboard AI.

Space Rice! - China's Shenzhou-23 crew is making history aboard the space station, advancing the first-ever multi-generational rice cultivation experiment in orbit. More than two months into the mission, the astronauts continue to make steady progress on this ground-breaking space science research.

🌕 Countdown to China's August 2026 Chang'e-7 Moon mission: This stunning true colour view of Long Yan ("Pyramid Rock") was captured by Chang'e 3's Yutu rover on 13 Jan 2014 after surviving its first 14-day lunar night. A remarkable engineering milestone paving the way for today's lunar ambitions.

A major milestone for space farming! - China's Shenzhou-23 crew has harvested the first batch of rice grown from seeds sent to the China Space Station. The research could help make growing food in space a reality for future missions beyond Earth...🧵

The successfully recovered Long March 10B Y1 booster has now been transported all the way to Tianjin. One of China's major aerospace manufacturing hubs.

🌕 Countdown to China's August 2026 Chang'e 7 Moon Mission: In January 2019, China's Chang'e 4 made history as the first spacecraft to achieve a soft landing on the Moon's far side. Landing inside the ancient South Pole–Aitken Basin, it opened an entirely new chapter in lunar exploration...🧵

China’s LHAASO observatory has detected record-breaking gamma rays from the binary star system Cygnus X-3, reaching at least 4 petaelectronvolts (PeV). Published in National Science Review on July 22, the discovery pushes the limits of what we know about nature’s most powerful particle accelerators.

An exclusive behind‑the‑scenes account of the world's first net-capture recovery of a rocket stage, the team faced back-to-back typhoons and a series of setbacks. Their perseverance paid off on July 10, when the Long March-10B's first stage was successfully caught on a floating platform at sea.
