The main mission of Shenzhou 16 was to complete the on-orbit rotation with Shenzhou 15. It would stay for about five months, carry out space science and application load on-orbit experiments, carry out astronauts 'extraterrestrial activities, carry out cargo airlock module, carry out extraterrestrial load installation and space station maintenance and other tasks.
The specific content of the Shenzhou 18 mission was to be launched at 20:59 on April 25,2024. The mission was the 18th spacecraft launched by China's manned space program. It was carried out by a team of three astronauts, Ye Guangfu, Li Cong, and Li Guangsu. Ye Guangfu was the commander. The main goal of the mission was to provide support for the Chinese space station and conduct space fluid experiments to manage the spacecraft's propellants. In addition, the mission was also one of the ninth activities to commemorate China's Space Day. As for the specific mission content, the information given was limited, so he could not know more details.
The Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft mission was the first time the Shenzhou series spacecraft carried out a round-trip space station astronauts transportation mission. The main purpose of this mission was to verify the key technologies for the construction and operation of the space station, such as long-term astronauts, regenerative life support, space material replenishment, extraterrestrial activities, extraterrestrial operations, and on-orbit maintenance. At the same time, it was also to accumulate experience for subsequent missions. The Shenzhou-12 manned spacecraft successfully docked with the space station's core module and allowed astronauts to enter the space station assembly to work and live. Finally, the spacecraft would return to the ground safely, and the mission was considered a complete success.
Shenzhou-16 completed the first manned mission in the application and development phase of China's space station. This mission marked the successful return of the Shenzhou 16 manned spacecraft and the successful landing at the Dongfeng landing site. Astronauts Jing Haipeng, Zhu Yangzhu, and Gui Haichao were in good health. During the mission, the astronauts completed hundreds of experiments and missions in orbit. They used the latest " rapid return plan " and completed the journey from space to the ground in only about five hours. The mission was a complete success, demonstrating China's strength and competitiveness in the aerospace field, providing valuable experience and enlightenment for China's future aerospace industry and space station construction.
Shenzhou 18 and Shenzhou 19 were two launch missions in China's manned space program. According to the information provided, the flight crews of Shenzhou 18 and Shenzhou 19 had been confirmed and were undergoing training. The two manned missions would carry out a series of missions, including space station maintenance, scientific experiments, and assembly missions. The launch mission labels of Shenzhou 18 and Shenzhou 19 were a yellow line that highlighted the Chinese space station and a red, yellow, and blue circular logo. The numbers "18" and "19" represented the mission number and corresponded to the number of stars. The launch time and specific details of these missions have not been provided.
Shenzhou 18 was the 18th spacecraft launched by China's manned space program. It was launched at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center at 20:58:57 on April 25,2024 and successfully entered the scheduled orbit. The Shenzhou 18 manned spacecraft was made up of three astronauts, Ye Guangfu, Li Cong, and Li Guangsu. They would stay in the space station for about six months to carry out space station management, maintenance, and repair tasks. The launch of Shenzhou 18 was a complete success, and the astronauts were in good condition. During their work on the space station, the Shenzhou 18 astronauts would also carry out several extraterrestrial activities. The return of Shenzhou 18 was scheduled for late October.
In 2024, the Shenzhou 17 manned spacecraft carried out two extraterrestrial activities. The second extraterrestrial activity was the first time a Chinese astronaut completed the maintenance mission of a spacecraft extraterrestrial facility in orbit. The focus of this extraterrestrial activity was to complete the maintenance work of the solar wings in the Tianhe core module, eliminating the impact of the impact of small space particles in the early stage. After evaluation and analysis, the power generation performance of the solar wings was normal. After the mission of the extraterrestrial activity was completed, the Shenzhou 17 manned spacecraft and the space station combination were successfully separated, and the astronauts safely returned to the Wentian experiment module. The mission of the Shenzhou 17 manned spacecraft was a complete success.
Shenzhou-6 was China's second manned space mission, and it was also China's second spacecraft to carry astronauts. It was launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on October 12, 2005, and successfully landed in a predetermined area in central Inner Mongolia on October 17. Shenzhou VI's mission was to launch and operate the two-person spacecraft safely. It also conducted scientific experiments on bone cells on the Earth's surface, cardiovascular medicine, digital photographs, and spacecraft testing. The success of this manned space flight marked the smooth start of China's manned space project and was one of China's major achievements in the aerospace field.
Shenzhou 18 was the 18th spacecraft launched by China's manned space program. It was successfully launched at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center at 20:59 on April 25,2024. The combination of the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft and the Long March 2F Yao 18 launch vehicle had a total weight of more than 400 tons and a total height of nearly 60 meters. The spacecraft was made up of three astronauts, Ye Guangfu, Li Cong, and Li Guangsu. They would stay in the space station for about six months, during which they would perform tasks such as space station management, maintenance, and experiments. The Shenzhou 18 spacecraft was equipped with a fault detection system and an escape rescue system to ensure the safety of the astronauts. The spacecraft would perform an autonomous rapid rendezvous and docking with the space station assembly and rotate in orbit with the Shenzhou 17 astronauts. The Shenzhou 18 spacecraft is expected to return in late October this year.
The Shenzhou-17 spacecraft was the second manned spacecraft after the Chinese space station entered a new stage of application and development. It adopted the autonomous rapid rendezvous and docking mode and successfully docked at the forward port of the space station and the core module about 6.5 hours after entering orbit, forming a three-cabin three-ship combination. The mission objectives of Shenzhou 17 included completing the on-orbit rotation with Shenzhou 16, staying for about six months, carrying out space science and application load on-orbit experiments, carrying out astronauts 'extraterrestrial activities and load extraterrestrial activities, and for the first time carrying out extraterrestrial maintenance and installation of extraterrestrial loads. During their stay in orbit, the Shenzhou 17 astronauts would also welcome the Tianzhou 7 cargo spacecraft and the Shenzhou 18 manned spacecraft. He planned to return to Earth around April next year. This mission was the 30th mission since the implementation of China's manned space project, and it was also the 12th manned mission.
Shenzhou-13 was the 13th spacecraft launched by China's manned space project. It was also the sixth mission of the China Space Station's key technology verification phase. The spacecraft was launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on October 16,2021 and completed an autonomous rapid rendezvous and docking with the space station's core module. The Shenzhou-13 crew flew in orbit for a total of 183 days, setting a record for the longest continuous flight time in orbit for Chinese astronauts. This flight mission also verified the first time the rendezvous and docking technology was used, and an emergency rescue launch standby mission was implemented. During the flight, the astronauts carried out a number of tasks, including hand-controlled remote operation rendezvous and docking, robotic arm-assisted module rotation, and so on. The success of Shenzhou-13 marked the successful completion of the space station's key technology verification phase mission, and the Chinese space station was about to enter the construction phase.
