Tiangong 3

Tiangong-3 (Chinese: 天宫三号; pinyin: Tiāngōng sānhào; literally "Heavenly Palace 3") will be a Chinese space station module, part of the Tiangong space station program. The China National Space Agency is expected to launch Tiangong-3 around 2015, following the launch of the Tiangong-2 laboratory module in 2013. Tiangong-3's design will form the basis of a full-size, multi-module space station, which is expected to launch in the early 2020s.
