In 2024, it has been more than 2,300 years since Qu Yuan looked up at the universe and asked, ‘To what do the sun and moon belong? In what order are the stars arrayed?’ A thousand years later, someone observed the stars at night and drew more than 1,350 stars on Dunhuang scriptures. More than 620 years ago, Wan Hu made his own rocket and held a kite to fly into the sky, but he never returned. And it has only been 54 years since the Chinese sent artificial satellites into space.
We have gathered the bits and pieces of the thousands of years of questioning the firmament on the road into a brand-new original aerospace culture IP, ‘Wuqiong’ – China Aerospace Immersive Art Exhibition. The first stop is landed in Beijing. During the 156-day exhibition period, more than 150,000 spectators came to explore the mysteries of China’s aerospace. In 2024, we set sail again. From winter solstice to early summer, from Beijing to Shanghai. In the nearly 2,500-square-meter space of Shanghai Himalayas Museum, let’s head for the universe and dive into ‘Wuqiong’. Opening hours: From June 8 to October 7, open from 10:00 to 18:00 on Monday to Thursday; from June 8 to October 7, open from 10:00 to 20:00 on Friday to Sunday; open from 10:00 to 20:00 on New Year’s Day, Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and National Day.
