Currently, the PAP maintains and controls two polar stations in the region: the Jinnah Antarctic Station (JNS), and the Polar Research Cell (PRC), which was established by the National Institute of Oceanography to co-ordinate all Antarctic related activities
In January 1991, Pakistan dispatched its first expedition to Greater Antarctica under the auspices of the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO). As the programme was led by the Navy, the PN dispatched a small group of Pakistan Marines, along with the team of scientists on board the destroyer PNS Tariq and the research vessel PNS Behr Paima. Facilities were quickly established in the region, and Jinnah Antarctic Station (JNS) was commissioned.
On 15 June 1992, Pakistan became an Associate Member of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research, but did not accede to the Antarctic Treaty due to economic reasons.
Government advisors belonging to the Ministry of Science and Technology frequently visited the area. Pakistani naval engineers and scientists oversaw the development of the base. By 1994 it was a comfortable, technologically advanced operational base. In 2001, the data operational system was linked to the Badr-B satellite, beginning regular transmission of digital imagery of the region to NIO headquarters in Karachi. In 2002, Pakistan's SUPARCO (Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission) scientists visited the base, where they set up and installed an advanced, supercomputer-equipped facility, run by the NIO and SUPARCO's scientists. In 2005, Pakistan Air Force engineers and scientists built a small airstrip, and a control room to monitor flights to and from Pakistan. As of 2010, the Pakistan Government has given a green light to expand the JAS facility into a permanent lead operational base.
GISAID
GISAID is open-access to genetic data of influenza viruses, and the coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.
On January 10, 2020, the first whole-genome sequences of SARS-CoV-2 were made available on GISAID. This enabled global responses to the pandemic. There was the first vaccines, and diagnostic tests, to detect SARS-CoV-2. GISAID helps watch for the emergence of new COVID-19 viral strains across the planet.
Its establishment was an alternative to sharing avian influenza data by conventional public-domain archives. GISAID has given rapid exchange of outbreak data during the H1N1 pandemic in 2009, the H7N9 epidemic in 2013, and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
GISAID was recognized for its importance to world health by G20 health ministers in 2017, and in 2020 the World Health Organization chief scientist called the data-science initiative "a game changer".
Chinese Space Station
The Chinese Space Station (CSS) is a space station being built by China in Low Earth orbit. It will be made up of several modules (parts) that need to be put together in space. The first module is called Tianhe. It was launched on 28 April 2021. It will take about 11 total launches to build the station. It is the third station by China, after Tiangong-1 and Tiangong-2.
The station will be built from several parts. These are shown in the diagram below.
China plans to do a number of experiments on the station. Other nations will also use the space station. These include Italy which has made a long-term agreement with China to work together on spaceflight. The University of Oslo in Norway is going to use the station for cancer research.
