[FPSPACE] Tiangong and Shenzhou 8-9-10

[Morris Jones]

Reportage of China's space station plans are becoming confusing. We had reports of Shenzhou 8 as a spacelab, to receive Shenzhou 9 and 10 at two docking ports. Now we have reports of "Tiangong" as a space station, which could be the real name of the SZ8 module. A sequence of Tiangong stations are apparently planned. Does anyone want to try to clear up the problems of the current reportage? The original Chinese statements seem highly ambiguous. 

Regards,

Morris
