The scientist at the space laboratories made me what I am today.

A rocket carrying China's first space laboratory, Tiangong-1, has launched from the north of the country.

China launched its first space laboratory, Tiangong 1, on September 29, 2011.

Another 8-metric ton "space laboratory" will be launched sometime between 2012 and 2017.

China has launched its first space laboratory, Tiangong-1.

Then, two crewed missions were planned to the first Chinese space laboratory.

However, it was decided to abandon that plan and launch a small space laboratory instead.

In 2007, plans for a "space laboratory", Tiangong 1 were announced.

The Mir is intended to become the world's first permanently manned space laboratory.

An orbiting space laboratory involving all the partners could be operating by 2001.
