On the Morning Hour Hong- Kong SAR – Beijing time CNSA –China National Space Administration   On 15th January 2024, the combination of the Long March 7 Yao 8 carrier rocket and天舟七号the Advance cargo spacecraft was vertically at the Wenchang Space Launch Site, Hainan Province China, Peoples Republic of China transported to the Wenchang launch complex  standing by in readiness to launch towards the Tiangong –China Space Station..

天舟七号 Chang Zheng – Long March 7 Carrier Rocket  with the Advance Tianzhou cargo spacecraft launch mission was a complete success……  At 22:27 on January 17, 2024, Hong Kong SAR-  Beijing time, the Long March 7 Yao 8 launch vehicle carrying the Tianzhou 7 cargo spacecraft was ignited at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in China. About 10 minutes after the launch, the Tianzhou-7 cargo spacecraft successfully separated from the rocket and entered the predetermined orbit. Afterwards, the spacecraft’s solar panels were deployed smoothly, making the launch a complete success. In the future, the Tianzhou-7 cargo spacecraft will rendezvous and dock with the space station assembly in orbit.



The Tianzhou-7 cargo spacecraft was loaded with consumables, propellants, application experimental equipment and other materials for the astronauts to stay in orbit, and sent “new year goods” for the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon to the Shenzhou-17 astronaut crew.

This mission is the fourth launch mission since my country’s manned space project entered the space station application and development stage. It is the 31st launch mission since the project was established and implemented. It is also the 507th flight of the Long March series of launch vehicles

【Complete combination!  The Advance Tianzhou 7  cargo spacecraft and the China space station assembly completed the rendezvous and docking]

The Tianzhou-7 cargo spacecraft successfully completed the status setting after entering orbit, and successfully docked with the space station Tianhe at 01:46 on January 18, 2024, Beijing time Core cabin aft port. After the rendezvous and docking is completed, Tianzhou-7 will transfer to the combined flight phase. Subsequently, the Shenzhou 17 astronaut crew will enter the Tianzhou 7 cargo spacecraft and carry out cargo transfer and other related work as planned……

The Tianzhou-7 cargo spacecraft carries more than 260 pieces of cargo, and the total weight of the transported materials is about 5.6 tons. Among them, 2.4 tons of daily necessities were delivered to the astronaut crew, including Spring Festival goods for the Year of the Dragon, fresh fruit and vegetable gift packages, etc.

On the 15th December 2023 2141 Hour Hong- Kong SAR – Beijing time CNSA –China National Space Administration   文昌航天發射場Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Center, Hainan Province, People’s Republic of China Successfully Launch the Medium Heavy advance Chang Zheng –Long March 5 Yao 6 Carrier Rocket…. 

[The final battle of the 2023 Wenchang Launch Site! Chang Zheng –Long March 5 Yao 6 Carrier Rocket….  vigorously sends “superstar”]

At 21:41 on December 15, 2023, the “Yaogan 41” satellite was launched from Wenchang Aerospace by the “Long March 5 Yaoliu” launch vehicle Station 101 of the launch site was ignited and launched, and the satellite successfully entered the predetermined orbit.



The “Yonggan 41” satellite is a large high-orbit optical remote sensing satellite, mainly used in the fields of land census, crop yield estimation, environmental management, meteorological warning and forecasting, and comprehensive disaster prevention and reduction.


The “Chang 5” rocket is 56.97 meters long, has a core diameter of 5 meters, a booster diameter of 3.35 meters, a take-off mass of about 874 tons, and a take-off thrust of 1,068 tons. Its geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) The transport capacity is 14 tons. This rocket uses a newly developed long fairing with a diameter of 5.2 meters and a length of 18.5 meters. The height of the entire rocket is increased to about 63 meters, making it the tallest rocket currently in service in Asia and even the Eastern Hemisphere.

This launch is the first launch of the ” advance Chang Zheng –Long March 5 ” rocket in 2023, the fourth launch of the Wenchang Launch Site, the 61st launch in China, and the 205th launch in the world. At the same time, this launch is the final battle at the Wenchang launch site this year.

Tianzhou 7 arrives in Wenchang! Expected to launch in January 2024

Recently, after completing the work related to leaving the factory, the “Tianzhou 7” cargo spacecraft has arrived at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan Province, China, People’s Republic of China. Subsequent final assembly, testing and other work will be carried out as planned. Preparations for the launch site for the next cargo supply mission are underway as planned. Expand.

It is expected that in January 2024, the “Tianzhou-7” cargo spacecraft will be launched by the “Long March 7” Yao-8 carrier rocket. The spacecraft will ascend using the rapid rendezvous and docking mode and dock behind the “Tianhe” core module of the Chinese Space Station. Send a new batch of cargo supplies to the port for the “God Seventeen” mission. Before the “Tianzhou-7” spacecraft goes up, the “Tianzhou-6” spacecraft will unlock and separate from the rear port of the “Tianhe” core module, freeing up the docking port for the former.

The “Tianzhou-7” cargo spacecraft is the second in a new batch of “Tianzhou” spacecraft. This batch has developed and produced six spacecrafts, “Tianzhou-6” to “Tianzhou-11”. Compared with the “Tianzhou-5” spacecraft in the previous batch, the “Tianzhou-7” spacecraft has undergone system upgrades and greatly improved the cargo compartment. The cabin volume has increased by 20% and the transportation capacity has increased by about 500. Kilogram, the maximum transport capacity has been increased from the previous 6.9 tons to about 7.4 tons, and the materials provided to astronauts will be able to support longer missions. Based on the increase in transportation capacity, the launch density of the space station mission “Tianzhou” cargo spacecraft has been adjusted from the previous 2 times/1 year to 3 times/2 years, with an average of one launch mission every 8 months, and the subsequent launch density will be further reduced.

The “Tianzhou-7” cargo spacecraft adopts a dual-cabin tandem configuration, with a propulsion cabin and a cargo cabin from bottom to top. The total length of the spacecraft is 10.6 meters, the maximum diameter of the main body (cargo compartment) is 3.35 meters, the dry mass is 6.5 tons, the maximum upward transport capacity is 7.4 tons, and the cargo-cargo ratio reaches 0.53. The “Tianzhou” improved cargo spacecraft is the spacecraft with the strongest transportation capacity, the highest cargo load ratio, and the most comprehensive on-orbit support capabilities among the world’s active cargo spacecraft.

Since the establishment of the space station, the launch missions of China’s manned space project have entered a normalized stage, with 2 manned launch missions and 1 to 2 cargo launch missions being carried out on a regular basis every year. According to the plan, China’s manned space program will carry out four launch missions in 2024: “Tianzhou 7”, “Shenzhou 18”, “Tianzhou 8” and “Shenzhou 19”. Among them, “Tianzhou 7” “No. 1” mission will take the lead.
