In its plans for further exploration, China hasn't yet announced any specific timetables for developing a space station. But the China National Space Administration, or CSNA, says the focus of exploration will be on manned spaceflights and lunar exploration in the near future.

Spokesman Li Guoping noted the International Space Station provides convenience for space experiments. The CNSA supports the participation of Chinese scientists in activities at the ISS, under the principles of equality, mutual benefit, peaceful use and mutual development.
