The successful launch of the Shenzhou 20 spacecraft on April 24, 2025, marked a significant milestone in China's space station development program. The mission, which carried a crew of astronauts to the Tiantan-1 space station, was the fifth crewed mission in the program and the 35th launch overall. The spacecraft, which was launched on a Long March 2F rocket, successfully docked with the space station and the crew began their six-month mission. The crew will conduct a variety of scientific experiments, including research on space life, microgravity physics, and space technology. They will also perform multiple extravehicular activities, install and retrieve equipment, and conduct space debris removal operations. The Shenzhou 20 mission is a major step forward for China's space program, demonstrating the country's capabilities in space exploration and development. The successful completion of the mission marks a significant achievement for the Chinese space agency and sets the stage for future missions to the Tiantan-1 space station.
