Three Chinese astronauts on board the Shenzhou-15 manned spaceship returned to Earth safely, after completing their six-month space station mission.
Shenzhou-15's return capsule, carrying astronauts Fei Junlong, Deng Qingming and Zhang Lu, touched down at the Dongfeng landing site in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region at 6:33 a.m. (Beijing Time).
The astronauts were in good shape.
"We have completed all the scheduled tasks and felt good after returning to the motherland," said Fei Junlong.
China launched the manned spaceship Shenzhou-15 on Nov. 29, 2022. The Shenzhou-15 crew, China's oldest mission crew in terms of average age, successfully completed four extravehicular activities (EVAs), becoming the crew to accomplish the most EVAs of all Chinese crews to date.
