China will send an astronaut to its space station for a year, enabling the study of long-duration human physiology in space as Beijing works toward its ambition of a crewed moon landing by 2030.

China will send an astronaut to its space station on Sunday for a year, a record length for the country, enabling the study of long-duration human physiology in space as Beijing works towards its ambition of a crewed moon landing by 2030.

China's space station will step up support for the country's first crewed lunar landing, scheduled to be achieved by 2030, the China Manned Space Agency said on Saturday.
