中国科学院
The Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) is a national scientific institution and academic governing body in China, playing a vital role in the country's space program. CAS is responsible for planning and executing space science missions, developing space technologies, and conducting research in areas like space physics and space environment. It collaborates with organizations like the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) on projects including lunar and deep space exploration. Key areas of focus for CAS include the study of the universe, space-time ripples, the Sun-Earth relationship, habitable planets, and space-based biological and physical sciences.
