China's first "ground space station," the domestically developed Space Environment Simulation and Research Infrastructure (SESRI), passed its acceptance review on Tuesday in Harbin, capital of northeast China's Heilongjiang Province.

SESRI is a ground-based, large-scale space science and technology experimental platform designed for the study of basic scientific issues in areas such as space materials, devices and magnetospheric physics. The review board said that this project marks a series of key technological breakthroughs in the field of space environment simulation and its interaction with substances, with its construction quality at an advanced level by international standards.
