The main mission of the Tianzhou-3 cargo spacecraft was as follows: 1. Transportation and storage of goods: About five tons and more than 200 packages of materials were sent to the space station, including astronauts 'living supplies (such as space drinking water, gas supplies, hygiene supplies, emergency reserves, etc.), extraterrestrial spacesuits and extraterrestrial consumables, space station platform materials, some payloads, maintenance spare parts, and experimental payloads. These materials could support three astronauts for six months in orbit and provide support for many technical verifications of the space station. 2. Transportation and replenishment of propellants: Carrying supplies such as replenishment of propellants to replenish the space station. 3. Waste disposal: Collect, store, and finally bring back to the atmosphere for destruction. 4. Power supply support: It has grid-connected power supply capability during docking, which can provide power supply support for the space station. Tianzhou-3 was the fifth mission in the key technology verification and construction phase of the China space station. After completing the rendezvous and docking with the Tianhe core module and Tianzhou-2 combination, it was transferred to the three-module (ship) combination flight state. It also carried out flying around tests, forward rendezvous and docking, and other missions, laying the foundation for the follow-up mission of the space station in orbit.

The Shenzhou spacecraft was developed by China itself. It had completely independent intellectual property rights and was comparable to or better than the international third-generation manned spacecraft technology. The Shenzhou spacecraft was mainly used for manned space missions to send astronauts into space and return safely to Earth. Tianzhou was a cargo spacecraft independently developed by China. Its main mission was to transport supplies for the Chinese space station, including astronauts 'living supplies, experimental equipment, fuel, etc., to ensure the long-term orbit operation of the space station. The Heavenly Palace was a space station project in China's manned spaceflight project. The Tiangong space station provided space for astronauts to live and work in orbit and supported a variety of scientific experiments and technical verification missions. It was an important achievement of China's aerospace development and also reflected China's growing ability in space exploration and utilization.
