(CCTV) — Two Chinese astronauts have entered space lab Tiangong-2 from the Shenzhou-11 manned spacecraft.
Shenzhou-11 succeeded in docking with Tiangong-2 through a remote-controlled automatic operation early Wednesday.
After the successful docking, two male astronauts, 49-year-old Jing Haipeng and 37-year-old Chen Dong, entered the orbital module of Shenzhou-11 from its re-entry module and finally entered the space lab.
They will now begin a month-long stay there, during which they will conduct a series of experiments.
