China successfully launched another manned mission to its new space station on June 5, 2022, sending three astronauts who will continue construction work for six months, China’s Manned Space Agency (CMSA) announced. The astronauts lifted off on the Shenzhou-14 spacecraft at 10:44 a.m. local time, launched by a Long March 2F rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the Gobi Desert, Inner Mongolia. The team will live and work at the Tiangong Space Station’s Tianhe core module for six months before returning to Earth in December. Tiangong means Heavenly Palace. The crew includes Chen Dong, Liu Yang, and Cai Xuzhe, who are expected to dock with the space station about 6.5 hours after launch.
