The head of China's Manned Space Agency Wang Zhaoyao says the country has completed all four space missions designed for its space laboratory.

During a press conference, Wang said China is now entering an era of space stations. He also said more than 60 experiments were carried out during the four missions, and the experiences from these missions will provide major support to the country's next space station program.

"So far, we have obtained all key technology needed for the construction and operation of a space station. And the basic supporting system has been in place. We now have the capacity to build a space station. What we are waiting for are different modules of the space station. Once the modules are made, we can start the construction of the space station in orbit," he said.
