Tianzhou 5 has become the fourth cargo ship to have docked with Tiangong, following the Tianzhou 2, 3 and 4.
The Tianzhou 4, which stayed connected with the space station for six months, undocked from Tiangong on Wednesday and will be guided by ground controllers back to Earth in due course, the agency said earlier this week.
Currently, the Tiangong station consists of a core module, two lab modules, a spacecraft used to transport the astronauts as well as the newly arrived cargo ship.
