On 20 September 2020, at 3:45:39 BJT, 3,051 Unmanned Aerial Vehicles took to the skies in Zhuhai to break the record for the most Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) airborne simultaneously. The benchmark for this record was set by a 2,200 UAV display in Russia on 4 September 2020. This broke the Guinness World Records title set by Intel Corporation (USA) with 2,066 UAVs in Folsom, California, USA on 15 July 2018. During this official challenge, the design executive team presented achievements of Chinese space science and technology in the night sky, such as the Tiangong-1, Beidou satellite system and China’s space station. The organizers paid tribute to China’s space industry through these elements in space science and technology.

In the southeastern Chinese city of Hefei, a team of researchers led by physicist Pan Jianwei has built a new device with potential use in a battlefield. Pan’s device is the most sensitive light source on Earth. It can produce a single photon, or a particle of light with the spooky behaviour of quantum physics, and these photons can be used to enable ultra-secure communication, detect unknown microorganisms or reveal a submarine lurking hundreds of metres deep in the ocean. Marlan Scully, a physicist in the United States, has participated in this project, according to their co-authored paper, published in journal Physical Review Letters earlier this month.

Hao Chun, Director General of the CMSA summarised in a speech during the 6th CCAF (China Commercial Aerospace Forum) in Wuhan the processes for the upcoming assembly of the Chinese Space Station and the operational tasks for the taikonaut corps. Chinese astronauts will shoulder multiple responsibilities in the construction of the space station. They will conduct complex extravehicular tasks, and work with mechanical arms to complete the installation, testing, adjustment and upgrading of payloads in orbit.
