China’s ‘Heavenly Harmony’ space station module is about to take off

The International Space Station is by far the most successful of all attempted space stations in history. It's been continually manned for many years and while it's no longer the most technologically advanced piece of hardware, it has seen regular updates and add-ons during its two decades of service. It hosts scientists from all over the world, including the US, Russia, Japan, and Europe, but China is banned. This is a decision that was made many years ago at the behest of NASA, and the United States has remained firm in its desire to prevent Chinese astronauts from visiting the ISS.

China, for its part, has been making some impressive strides in its own space exploration endeavors. It recently sent multiple missions to the Moon, became the first country to perform a soft landing on the Moon's far side, and even sent a mission to Mars at the same time NASA's Perseverance rover was making the trip. Now, in a move that should surprise nobody, China is poised to launch a space station of its own, and it's expected to begin the delicate process of sending modules into space this week.
