China is developing its first large flagship telescope, Xun Tian, which means "survey to heavens" in English. It's a space-based optical observatory for astronomers to carry out sky surveys and capture a general map or images of the sky. The telescope is set to be launched at the end of 2023 and start operations in 2024.
