In a year of remarkable progress, China’s orbital outpost, Tiangong, solidified its role as a hub for scientific discovery in 2025. From life sciences to advanced physics under microgravity, fully equipped labs have guaranteed the success of pivotal experiments.
According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the station implemented 31 fresh orbital projects in space applications, generating more than 150 terabytes of data. This treasure trove is accelerating research in vital fields.
Standout achievements featured the inaugural rat-based space science trial, alongside China’s global first in biological studies within a unique superconducting-microgravity setup on a space station.
Researchers also delved into lithium-ion batteries through real-time electrochemical and optical analysis in space conditions. These strides not only highlight technical prowess but also pave the way for sustainable long-term space habitation.
