Here are some of China’s most significant scientific projects. 
 
The super-telescope 
As symbols of scientific power, this takes some beating. 
The 
Five-Hundred-Metre Aperture Spherical Telescope, or FAST, is a vast 
radio telescope which is substantially larger than the next largest one,
 the Aricebo Observatory, in Puerto Rico, with a diameter of 305 metres. 
The telescope, which is the size of 30 football pitches, has been built 
into a natural crater in the south-western province of Guizhou.

The final touches are now being made to the $180 million project before it officially opens in September. 
 
The telescope is effectively a giant ear, listening for radio waves 
emitted by objects in deepest space. Because the waves have travelled 
for great distances in space they are incredibly weak, which is why 
bigger really is better. 
The telescope will help scientists learn more about how the universe was
 formed as well as searching for new stars and any signs of 
extraterrestrial life. 
 
The Mars probe 
China isn’t just keeping an eye (and ear) on the heavens, it has a very active space programme too. 
In fact, China’s space age started in 1970 when its first satellite Dongfanghong 1 was sent into orbit. 
Since then there have been more satellites, rockets and, in 2003, the first taikonauts, as China calls its astronauts. 
In 2013 China landed the first probe on the moon for nearly 40 years.

The country plans to send another probe to the moon in 2018 but, more 
ambitiously still, has committed to sending a mission to Mars by 2021. 
 
Wu Weiren, chief designer of China’s moon and Mars mission, <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-36085659" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">told the BBC</a>: "We will orbit Mars, land and deploy a rover, all in one mission." 
While the budgets for the US and Russian space programmes have shrunk 
considerably since their heyday during the Cold War, funding for China’s
 space programme is rising. 
 
The space station 
While many of the world’s space agencies, such as NASA, ESA and 
Roscosmos, are civilian organizations, China’s space programme is 
military. 
And that means taikonauts cannot currently go to the International Space
 Station as the US says it fears sharing its technology could result in a
 breach of America’s national security. 
China’s solution? It is building a space station of its own. A prototype
 space lab, Tiangong-2, will launch this year, and a larger version will
 follow.

That China is able to go it alone with a project of this size shows just
 how much money is being allocated to this kind of cutting-edge science 
and how determined the country is to become a world leader. 
 
The super-collider 
When the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) built the 
Large Hadron Collider, it was by far the world’s largest and most 
powerful <a class="externalLink" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collider" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">particle collider</a>, as well as being <a class="externalLink" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_megaprojects#Science_projects" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the largest, most complex experimental facility</a> ever built and the largest machine in the world. 
Built in collaboration with over 10,000 scientists and engineers from 
more than 100 countries, the collider is in a 27 kilometre tunnel 
beneath the <a class="externalLink" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France%E2%80%93Switzerland_border" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">France–Switzerland border</a> near <a class="externalLink" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Geneva</a>. 
That all adds up to an impressive project by anyone’s standards, but China <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.nature.com/news/china-plans-super-collider-1.15603" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">now plans</a>
 to build a much bigger one. It has announced its intention to build a 
particle collider between 50 and 100km in circumference, with the first 
phase of the project's construction scheduled to begin between 2020 and 
2025. 
The facility is expected to generate millions of Higgs bosons, sometimes
 dubbed the “God particle”. These endow mass, making them a fundamental 
building block of the universe. 
The project is intended to generate seven times the energy of CERN’s 
collider, where the particle’s existence was demonstrated in 2012. 
 
The deepsea submersible 
 
<img alt="[IMG]" class="bbCodeImage LbImage" data-url="https://assets.weforum.org/editor/jaqhd-sFH4KZU-V-tLFaoN0r2ovFpfR6zILMdBE0H_s.jpg" height="446" src="https://assets.weforum.org/editor/jaqhd-sFH4KZU-V-tLFaoN0r2ovFpfR6zILMdBE0H_s.jpg" width="640" /> 
The Jiaolong submersible

In 2012, China’s deepsea exploration project reached new heights when it
 plunged to new depths; one of its research submersibles descended more 
than 7,000 metres below the surface. 
 
By reaching the hadal zone – the deepest part of the ocean, which begins
 at 6,000 metres – China became a member of an elite group of nations 
able to reach such depths. And it plans to go further. 
Over the next five years, Chinese scientists <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.nature.com/news/what-china-s-latest-five-year-plan-means-for-science-1.19590" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">will build</a>
 one crewed and one un-crewed submersible, according to a plan released 
by the science ministry. Each will be able to reach depths of 11,000 
metres, the very bottom of the hadal zone. "For deepsea technology, this
 five years will be a golden period,” says Cui Weicheng of the Hadal 
Science and Technology Research Center at Shanghai Ocean University. 
China hopes that by becoming a world leader in ocean science it will 
attain advanced scientific capabilities in many other areas, too. By 
pushing the boundaries of exploration in space and the 
subatomic-particle level, it is already transforming itself into one of 
the most scientifically developed nations in the world.

China’s economic power has grown at breakneck speed. Its 
ever-strengthening political might reflects that fact, as does an 
increase in its military muscle. But there are other, less obvious, 
areas in which China is rapidly becoming a world leader. 
Scientific research is something that the country is already doing on an
 enormous scale. And when the National People’s Congress approved its <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-35818730" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">13th Five-Year Plan</a>earlier this year, <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.nature.com/news/what-china-s-latest-five-year-plan-means-for-science-1.19590" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">it was clear</a> scientific innovation was being further embedded as a national priority. 
China intends research expenditure <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.nature.com/news/what-china-s-latest-five-year-plan-means-for-science-1.19590" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">to rise to 2.5%</a> of gross domestic product by 2020, from less than 2.2% over the past five years.</div>

Most significant scientific projects that put China on the map

Here are some of China’s most significant scientific projects. The super-telescope As symbols of scientific power, this takes some ...

It has been in hibernation for two years but scientists have finally 
successfully brought the sleeping giant particle collider—the world’s 
largest particle collider, the CERN Large Hadron Collider—back to life. 
The size and power of this machine gives it the ability to smash 
together atoms at double the energy than it did the very first time the 
machine was powered on. 
 
And thus, the European Organization for Nuclear Research noted that the 
Large Hadron Collider will now be able to run around the clock for at 
least the next three years and this will produce a large amount of data 
for scientists to sort through. 
 
CERN director, Rolf Heuer, explains, “We have seen the first data 
beginning to flow. Let’s see what they will reveal to us about how our 
universe works.”This startup comes after a $150 million overhaul which 
began not too long after the particle collider’s initial startup two 
years ago; a run which helped to confirm the existence of the elusive 
subatomic particle known as the Higgs boson. 
 
Heuer also goes on to say that physicists now hope that this new run 
might lead to more discoveries that can help “explain remaining 
mysteries such as dark matter.” 
 
Dark matter, of course, is a concept that is relatively new to our 
understanding. As it is only still theoretical, scientists believe that 
it actually makes up 84 percent of the matter of the universe and is 
almost like the mortar of the universe, holding galaxies together. It is
 called dark matter because we don’t know how to detect it yet—we can’t 
see it—but we know that it must exist because of gravitational anomalies
 that can only be explained by the existence of something that we cannot
 see. 
 
 
 
 
There are some Conspiracy theories floating around it.
