The Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) established a 3D virtual space station in Quzhou No 2 High School, Zhejiang province, local media reported on March 16.

Twelve spacecraft models have been installed in the space station, including the Long March V rocket, the Long March VII rocket, and the docking model of Tiangong II and Tianzhou I.

From March 11 to 14, six CAS scientists visited the Quzhou school to debug the instruments and discuss course designs with local teachers.

They expect that these courses and virtual reality (VR) technology would arouse students' interests in aerospace, teach them how to make rocket models and help them learn about the process and principle of signal transmission between satellite and ground.

In March 2018, CAS established an Innovation Practice Base in Quzhou No 2 High School. One year later, in addition to the aerospace engineering lab, CAS also built a processor design lab and a new-energy vehicle lab in the Quzhou school.
