China has successfully launched its new Shenzhou-21 mission, continuing the expansion of its ambitious space program.
According to Chinese media, the mission is destined for the Tiangong space station. A key highlight of this flight is the three-person crew, which includes China’s youngest-ever astronaut, marking a significant moment for the nation’s next generation of explorers.
The crew is scheduled to remain in orbit for six months.
The mission was launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China. This marks the seventh crewed mission to the Tiangong space station since its construction was completed in 2022.
