3 (1)Mission of CASC Make into space much easier The number of launch for Changzheng-series rockets breaks through 200. The success rate of the first 100 times is 93%. The success rate of the later 100 times exceeds 98% The new-generation rockets are emerging according to the guideline of generalization, seriation and modularization. The developing series cover large middle and small rockets, including CZ5,CZ6, CZ7 which is a newgeneration liquid rocket, and CZ11 which is a solid rocket. 3

4 (1)Mission of CASC Extend space activities to much deeper out space The cosmic space is the future of humanity. Every development of space activities concerns our future. CE-3 reentry vehicles flyby Translunar Libration Point Spaced-Images of Toutatis taken by CE-2 4

5 (1)Mission of CASC Construct a national complete space infrastructure system The number and performance of on-orbit spacecrafts are continuously upgrading. A complete, continuous and long-term stable space-ground integrated network is under construction, which includes telecommunication satellite systems, BeiDou navigation satellite system and earth observation satellites.

17 (1)System concept one core module + multiple replaceable payloads 17

18 (2)Technology characteristic one core module + multiple replaceable payloads :Payloads' are set on demand based on the corn module. Modularization: corn module is made of modularized space crafts which can plug and play. On-orbit construction: based on an open variable structure, it can be built up step by step through several launches. On-orbit reconfiguration: change or supply. Comprehensive application: multiple payloads apply simultaneously. 18

19 (2)Technology characteristic On-orbit update: module upgrade to maintain the advancement of tech state. Sufficient usage of orbit resources and multiple payloads resources Low cost due to allowance for multiple launches Long lifetime due to reusing modularized spacecraft and continual power supply by adding fuel Highly precision control 19
