In May 2018\, China invited U.N. member states to propose experiments to fly on the CSS as part of an effort to expand international cooperation in space and make space utilization available to more countries. \nThe announcement will be made at UNCOPOUS’s headquarters in Vienna\, Austria from 13:00-14:00 CEST (7:00-8:00 am EDT). \nThe emailed announcement if the event\, which does not indicate if there will be a webcast\, is reproduced below. \nUNIS/MA/249\nVienna\, 29 May 2019\nMEDIA ADVISORYMedia representatives are invited to the \nUnited Nations/China Joint Announcement Event on\nSelected Experiments on board the China Space Station \n Wednesday\, 12 June 2019 \n13:00-14:00 \nBoard Room D\, the 4 th floor\, Building C\, Vienna International Centre \n\n VIENNA\, 29 May (United Nations Information Service) – In May 2018\, the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) published an “Announcement of Opportunity” inviting Member States to submit applications to conduct scientific experiments on board the China Space Station (CSS).
