China launches one of two laboratory modules to complete its permanent orbiting space station.

China’s space program is run by the ruling Communist Party’s military wing, the People’s Liberation Army, prompting the U.S. to exclude it from the International Space Station. As a result, China largely had to work on its own in its Tiangong space station program, building and then abandoning two experimental stations before embarking on the latest iteration.

The rocket carrying China's second module for its Tiangong Space Station lifts off Sunday from Wenchang Spaceport in China.The 23-ton lab module is heavier than any other single-module spacecraft that is currently in space, according to the state-owned Global Times. China’s space program launched its first astronaut into orbit in 2003, making it only the third country to do so on its own after the former Soviet Union and the U.S.
