China's Space Program Thread II

[H2O]

Have Chinese engineers mention what they'll do about the dust accumulation for future projects? Or, will they take the same path as NASA's latest rover for power generation?

At the Paris Air Show, the Swiss engineering firm NanoSpace AG signed a cooperation agreement to participate in the International Lunar Research Station. Not sure what the agreement entails, but NanoSpace apparently is a component and engineering solution provider for the European Space Agency and has previously cooperated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

How many countries have signed up to China's own lunar research station(Aka China's own Artemis accord)?
This will be a good program for China to see how many countries can be on their side as well.

Looks to me like the best Private Chinese rocket out there. Wishing them all the best.
But the way, which launch centre are they using? Is it one they built for themselves or a government launch facility?
