China\u2019s plan for the ILRS follows a two-phase timeline, with completion of the initial phase expected by 2035. This phase will involve the launch of five super heavy-lift rockets between 2030 and 2035, which will deliver the components needed to build a robotic moon base at the lunar south pole. These missions will lay the groundwork for the construction of a more advanced base capable of supporting human life, which is expected to be operational by 2050. Wu Yanhua, the chief designer of China\u2019s deep space exploration project, provided further details of the plan.<\/p>\n
The main intention of the ILRS is for science work on the surface of the Moon, with various laboratories involving also human habitats. It is expected that circulation of humans would be on the 6-month basis.<\/p>\n

Countries, institutions and individuals comprise international cooperation on the ILRS project. Each one of them participates with their technology, science and ideas, according to their expertise. The basis of cooperation is the UN Treaty for the peaceful use of Space for the benefits of humanity.<\/p>\n
