China’s Shenzhou-16 Crew Returns to Earth | China Space Station

China’s Shenzhou-16 crew of three returned to Earth on October 31, 2023, after spending five months aboard the Tiangong Space Station. The team handed over the ship’s duties to their successors, the Shenzhou-17 crew that arrived a few days before. The Shenzhou-16 mission reportedly conducted dozens of experiments in space medicine, biotechnology, ecology, fluid physics, and materials science.

The Shenzhou-16 crew spacecraft successfully landed at the Dongfeng landing site, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, on Oct. 31, 2023, at 00:11 UTC (08:11 China Standard Time). The Shenzhou-16 spacecraft transported the fifth crew of three astronauts, Jing Haipeng (景海鹏, commander), Zhu Yangzhu (朱杨柱) and Gui Haichao (桂海潮), from a long duration mission aboard the China Space Station.
