BEIJING — touched down at a landing site in the Gobi Desert in northern China at approximately 8:10 p.m. , China Central Television reported.
“I am very fortunate to have witnessed the completion of the basic structure of the Chinese space station after six busy and fulfilling months in space,“ said Chen, who was the first to exit the capsule. “Like meteors, we returned to the embrace of the motherland.”The three astronauts were part of the Shenzhou-14 mission, which launched in June.
With a lifespan of 10 to 15 years, Tiangong could one day be the only space station still up and running if the International Space Station retires by around the end of the decade as expected.
