Perspectives on China’s Manned Lunar Scientific Research and Test Station

China's lunar exploration efforts have been focused on developments in space that are sustainable. To this end, the country plans to construct a manned lunar scientific research station after successfully landing on the Moon, with the aim of ensuring long-term human survival on the lunar surface and developing and utilizing lunar resources. To achieve this goal, extensive research has been conducted on the development plans and current situation of manned lunar exploration. Based on the development law of human deep-space exploration, a goal of verifying human long-term, extraterrestrial survival technology and addressing challenges, while carrying out in-depth scientific research on the Moon and exploring its resources, is proposed. After analyzing the difficulties and development trends of the station's construction, possible incremental development plans and paths for the future are discussed. Considering the four major elements of strategy, science, engineering, and economics, and focusing on the safety requirements of manned spaceflight, a preliminary idea for selecting the station location is proposed. Finally, six key technologies and challenges are analyzed with the development plan. Overall, China's commitment to lunar exploration reflects its dedication to advancing scientific knowledge and technological capabilities, while also contributing to the long-term sustainability of human presence in space.
