CTOnews.com, August 10 (Xinhua)-- the second experimental module of the Chinese space station, Mengtian Experimental Module, will be launched in October, according to CCTV. After launch, the Mengtian experimental module will eventually form a T configuration with the sky and core module and the third module of the 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.

CTOnews.com previously reported that the Mengtian experimental module has completed all the development work before leaving the factory and arrived at the Wenchang space launch site recently. In the follow-up, the Mengtian experimental module will carry out the final assembly and testing of the launch site as planned. At present, the facilities and equipment of the launch site are in good condition, and the participating systems are preparing for various tasks in an orderly manner.

At present, the facilities and equipment of the launch site are in good condition, and the participating systems are preparing for various tasks in an orderly manner. In the future, the Mengtian experimental module will dock with the core module of the Chinese space station and become part of the "Tiangong" space station. At that time, the construction of the Chinese space station will be completed with Tianhe core module, Mengtian experimental module and Mengtian experimental module as the basic configuration, which marks a great progress in the field of aerospace in China.

The Mengtian experimental module has completed a positive thermal test, China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation said on July 12. According to the requirements of the vacuum thermal test outline, the Mengtian experimental module completed all the working condition tests in turn, and carried out the harmful gas collection test and noise test in the sealed cabin during the test. During the whole test, the equipment on the Mengtian experimental cabin and the ground test equipment worked normally.

According to reports, the Mengtian experimental module is mainly oriented to microgravity scientific research, and is equipped with experimental cabinets with multi-disciplinary directions such as fluid physics and material science, supporting 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.

According to Gu Yidong, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, "on the space station, we can study what happens when materials have no gravity, which in turn promotes the research of material science on the ground, the processing of materials, and improves efficiency and quality."

"China Space Station will add a new room: the Mengtian experimental module has arrived at the launch site."
