Video: China’s growing space program welcomes home three astronauts after successful landing
Three Chinese astronauts successfully touched down on Earth after returning home from space. Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu were on a six month mission aboard China’s Tiangong space station, according to Space.com.
China wants to make its Tiangong space station bigger and better
China aims to keep Tiangong — which is around 20% as massive as the International Space Station — occupied and operational for at least 10 years. Tiangong could thus be the only space station in orbit, once the ISS reaches the end of its long life in 2030 or thereabouts.
