Abstract
Space exploration has lasted for about half a century, and astronomical observations with space telescopes and other instruments have allowed us to understand the laws of the nature and the universe itself much deeper, wider and in ever greater detail. For example, many important and ground-breaking new phenomena and astronomical objects have been discovered by space astronomical observations, and two Nobel prizes in physics have been awarded to the results of space astronomical observations. However, access to space still remains very expensive, such that only a very limited number of space astronomical facilities with much contrived capabilities have been sent to space, in comparison to the numerous powerful experiments and observational facilities built on the ground. This certainly hinders our ability to further study the laws of nature and explore the universe.
