China launches space mission with first woman astronaut


Though I didn’t hear something about ‘Shenzhou-8’, the inspiring news could also make me a little bit delighted.

According to the author’s report, China has launched its latest manned space mission ‘Shenzhou-9’, and contained the first female astronaut of China. At this time, the female astronaut and two male astronauts are heading to the Tiangong space lab of China and going to spend over a week living and working. The Shenzhou-9 has been designed lighter in order to be advanced as robotic cargo ships. At the same time, the most important thing is to dock into the Tiangong space shuttle successfully, and do the experiments for the future development of medicine.

In the nearly a decade, China did make a big progress on the manned spacecraft engineering. I still remember the year 2003, the scene of Yang Liwei who is the first astronaut of China waved the Five-starred red flag. It seemed like a dream, suddenly came true and fantastic. I thought it a peak of China’s spacecraft engineering, but actually China has already made many breakthroughs over and over till now.  

Began from the Shenzhou-5, Shenzhou-7 achieved a progress of space-walk, Shenzhou-8 fulfilled the mission of docking space station. The Shenzhou series are worthy of the name ‘ships of miracle’. They are without any trace but as long as they appear to our view, it is always surprises for Chinese. The Shenzhou series ship so many dreams and fantasies of Chinese. And with the development with a steady pace, I wish they can achieve the dreams of all the human beings someday.
