I heard that China is also planning to create its own space station “axiom”, I wonder if they will unite as it was with the US and USSR stations or will history go differently this time?

Perhaps, perhaps not. Maybe we’ll get a second ISS eventually even?

Axiom is an American space station plan, China’s space station is Tiangong. And the Tianhe module of Tiangong was launched in 2021. Here’s a wikipedia article: Tiangong space station - Wikipedia

It will be the largest satellite dispatchment thus far too…

You can build a DIY satellite for just a couple hundred USD: Shop – AmbaSat
It will be launched on the upcoming Skyrora XL rocket.

I guess that’s useful for some less rich science projects…
