The Tiangong space station now has three complete modules after the Wengtian laboratory module launched yesterday successfully docked with the previously launched Wentian and Tianhe modules. Tiangong is the largest space station ever built by China to date.
Being prevented from joining the International Space Station (ISS), China built its own space station using technology based on the Russian space station. When the space station is fully assembled, it will be T-shaped with enough space for three astronauts.
