China's Shenzhou-19 crew aboard the orbiting Tiangong Space Station has carried out a series of space experiments and performed equipment maintenance in the first month of their space mission. This video was released on Wednesday, Novemmber 27, 2024, a day marking the 25th anniversary of successful launch of China's first uncrewed spacecraft, Shenzhou-1, on November 20, 1999 from northwest China's Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.
Up to date, China has launched 19 Shenzhou spacecraft, 14 of these have sent 24 astronauts into space, with the number of total trips reaching 38.
The crew members, Cai Xuzhe, Song Lingdong and Wang Haoze, were sent into the space station on October 30, 2024, for a six-month mission.
"On the same day 25 years ago, China's first unmanned spacecraft was successfully launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The first show of the Long March 2F carrier rocket or CZ 2F shocked the world and the first flight of Shenzhou-1 spacecraft has made all the Chinese proud. China's manned space program has taken the first step from blueprinting and dreaming to striving to realize the dream, laying a solid foundation for realizing the Chinese nation's millennium skyward dream," said Cai.
"Over the past 25 years, generations of astronauts have been confident, self-reliant and hardworking. With a coordinated national response and all people being of one mind, we have set new heights in exploring space again and again, including completing the strategic mission of three-step manned space program, building the Chinese people's own space station, highlighting the Chinese Dream through realizing the Space Dream and writing a brilliant chapter in exploring the vast space," said Song.
