Answer 1

The correct answer is Mengtian

Key Points

China’s third and final module called Mengtian docked with its permanent space station called Tiangong to further a more than decade-long effort to maintain a constant crewed presence in orbit, as its competition with the U.S. grows increasingly fierce.
3 astronauts arrived for a six-month stay on board, during which they will complete the station’s assembly, conduct spacewalks, and carry out additional experiments.

About Mengtian:

Mengtian is the third and final module that was blasted into space from the Wenchang Satellite Launch Center on the southern island province of Hainan.
Mengtian, or “Celestial Dream,” joins Wentian as the second laboratory module for the station, collectively known as Tiangong, or “Celestial Palace.” Both are connected to the Tianhe core module where the crew lives and works.
Like its predecessors, Mengtian was launched aboard a Long March-5B carrier rocket, a member of China’s most powerful family of launch vehicles.
