Expecting another milestone for our beautifully advancing space industry!

Where do we get the money from for all these magnificent and expensive programs if our economy is fake!?

The Chinese space station (CSS) is a planned artificial satellite to be placed in low earth orbit. Built and launched entirely by the People's Republic of China (PRC), it shall combine indigenous designs with international compatibility. It is part of Project 921 of the Chinese space program.

Chinese Space Station (CSS) programs, in part, was the result of American refusal for China to part of International Space Station program because of military implications.

International space station is suppose to Russia space station. I don't know why in the end USA has the final say on who can participate or not. Is it becos most of the maintenance fee is paid by NASA?

We could attract some friend country to the plan, I like PAK, hope one day Pak will join the project, Like J-17 project!!
Whatever temptation from USA and Other countries, we should keep independent, hold on our own plan, Of course, we can do the joint project with them simultanously!!

All 5 governmental partners would need to agree before China could be included. ESA is open to China's inclusion, the United States of America (US) is against it. The US concerns over the transfer of technology which could be used for military purposes echo similar concerns with Russia prior to their membership.

Agreed!
Independence and Pakistan on high priority list of co-operation.
I hope JF-17 can open great business opportunities for both countries!

Budget constraints led to the merger of three space station projects with the Japanese Kibō module and Canadian robotics. In 1993 the Soviet/Russian Mir-2, the American Freedom, and the European Columbus merged into a single multinational programme.
