Retrospect and Perspective on Microgravity Science in China

The major objective of microgravity science is to study the movement laws of substances in microgravity, as well as to reveal the influence of gravity on the movement of materials in different gravity environments. China's microgravity research started in the 1960s and really rose in the middle and late 1980s. After years of efforts, it has begun to take shape, and has obvious characteristics and advantages in some important directions. In this paper, the early history of China's microgravity science is briefly reviewed. The emphases are put on the recent progress and the latest achievements of microgravity science and application researches in China carried out mainly by using the national space platforms, such as SJ-10 scientific experiment satellite, TG-2 space lab, and so on. Finally, the vision of China's microgravity science in the coming era of China Space Station (CSS) is prospected, so as to promote the rapid and sustainable development of microgravity science and application researches in China, for better serving the country and benefiting mankind.
