China's Historic Launch: New Moon Spacecraft Set for 2027 or 2028 Debut

China is planning to launch a next-generation crewed spacecraft between 2027 and 2028, capable of carrying astronauts to the moon and beyond. The spacecraft will be partially reusable and will be launched using the newly developed Long March 10 rocket. The deep-space version can carry three astronauts to lunar transfer orbit, while a low Earth orbit variant can transport four to seven astronauts to China's Tiangong space station. This is part of China's goal to put astronauts on the moon by 2030.
