(ECNS) -- As it embarks on a new journey, China will make special efforts and innovations in the following areas like aerospace, said Wu Yansheng, board chairman of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.
First, we will improve China's capability of entering the space. The capacity of carrier rockets decides how far we can go in space development. We will upgrade the current carrier rockets and develop a new generation of manned carrier rockets and heavy-lift ones to create a bigger and better stage for China's space development.
Second, we will continue to carry out major space projects. For instance, we will carry out manned lunar exploration, build a scientific research station on the moon, bring back samples from Mars, and explore asteroids. These projects will help us walk steadier and further on the road of space exploration.
Third, we will move faster to foster a cradle of original space technologies in China. We have formed the China Academy of Aerospace Science and Innovation, invested more in basic research, and aspired to lead space development with breakthroughs in a series of strategic, frontier and subversive fields such as AI, cutting-edge exploration, sophisticated materials, and advanced power. We are committed to contributing more wisdom, schemes, and strengths in the aerospace sector to building the community with a shared future for mankind.
