The China Science and Technology Museum said it has launched a series of space-science popularization activities ahead of China's Space Day, which falls on April 24.

The event, which will last throughout April, aims to provide the public with an all-round and multi-sensory experience of space science, including exhibitions, science lectures, science courses and special-effect movies.

The Shenzhou-1 return capsule will be exhibited at the event, said the museum.

Experts and scholars will be invited to give lectures on popular science, interpreting aerospace research and various applications of aerospace sciences.

The public can also learn about China's achievements in space exploration through online astronomy classes.
