Abstract
Space very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) has unique applications in high-resolution imaging of fine structure of astronomical objects and high-precision astrometry due to the key long space-Earth or space-space baselines beyond the Earth's diameter. China has been actively involved in the development of space VLBI in recent years. This review briefly summarizes China's research progress in space VLBI and the future development plan.
