China has officially approved the construction of its first deep-water space station in the South China Sea, marking a major step in the country’s expanding ambitions in both space and maritime exploration. The facility, to be built at an undisclosed location, will serve as a crucial hub for deep-sea research, space observation, and maritime security operations.
The project, led by the China National Space Administration and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is designed to function as both an underwater research lab and a communication base, linking China's deep-sea exploration projects with its growing space infrastructure.
Officials have stated that the station will support satellite tracking, deep-sea mining, marine biodiversity studies, and climate monitoring, while also strengthening China's presence in the strategically contested waters of the South China Sea.
The station will reportedly be equipped with advanced underwater sensors, autonomous submarines, and high-speed satellite communication systems. It is expected to provide real-time data to Chinese space agencies, oceanographers, and military units, allowing for enhanced monitoring of both maritime and extraterrestrial activity.
Scientists hope the station will contribute to global climate change research, improve disaster early-warning systems, and expand deep-sea mineral exploration, which Beijing sees as key to its long-term resource security.
While China insists that the project is primarily for scientific and exploratory purposes, the strategic location of the station has raised concerns among neighboring countries and global powers. The South China Sea remains one of the world's most disputed regions, with competing territorial claims from the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei, and Taiwan, as well as continued U.S naval presence challenging Beijing’s expanding influence.
The deep-water space station is expected to begin construction later this year, with an anticipated completion date of 2028.
