China successfully launched the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft on May 11th, delivering approximately 6.2 metric tons of supplies to the China Space Station.

At 8:14 AM on May 11th, Tianzhou-10 successfully launched from the Wenchang launch site in Hainan.

This launch used the Long March-7 carrier rocket, marking the 641st flight of the Long March rocket series.

The spacecraft carried approximately 6.2 metric tons of supplies, including food, maintenance spare parts, and a complete set of extravehicular spacesuits.

At 1:11 PM, Tianzhou-10 successfully completed docking with the Tianhe core module's aft docking port.

This is the tenth flight of the Tianzhou spacecraft series and marks the tenth consecutive successful resupply mission.
