This program included plans for the creation of their own multi-module fully manned orbital space station as well as the construction of reusable space transport systems for manned flights to the moon.<\/p>\n<p>However, upon further investigation, the plans of the Chinese turned out to be much more ambitious than originally anticipated. The achievements of Chinese engineers made the leaders of the space industry (the United States and Russia) worry. This is an example of one of the rare cases in which a country is doing more than it reveals.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, it became known that the Chinese are also developing an ion engine with fundamentally different characteristics than expected. Moreover, China has also begun testing new engines for their spacecraft. It is important to note that this is happening without any fuss in the press whatsoever.
