The International Lunar Research Station (ILRS) includes a set of comprehensive scientific experimental facilities jointly constructed by multiple countries on the surface and in the orbit of the moon, with scalability, maintainability and the capability of long-term autonomous operation and short term human participation.

　　ILRS is capable of ensuring Earth-Moon round trip, energy supply, central control, communication and navigation, lunar scientific research, and ground support. It will continuously carry out multidisciplinary, multi-objective, large-scale sci-tech activities such as scientific exploration, resource utilization and frontier technology verification.
