Abstract
The TianQin project aims to launch and deploy around 2035 an equilateral triangular constellation with each side measuring 170 000 kilometers, forming a gravitational wave observatory: TianQin. TianQin aims to detect gravitational waves in the frequency range 10-4~1 Hz and to draw a more comprehensive picture of the universe for mankind. In this article, we introduce the background and the proposing process, the major gravitational wave sources and scientific objectives, the key technology problems to be solved, the technology roadmap, and the current progress of the TianQin project, so as to facilitate more people to join in this challenging and exciting work.
