On today on the 29TH May 2023 in according to the  CMS China Manned SpaceCNSA-China National Space Administration  China Manned Space Engineering Office At 11:00 on May 29, 2023, Beijing time, the three astronauts will meet with Chinese and foreign media reporters at the Wentian Pavilion of the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center……  Official announcement! According to the research and decision of the Space Station Application and Development Stage Flight Mission Headquarters, the Shenzhou 16 astronaut crew consists of command commander Jing Haipeng, spaceflight engineer Zhu Yangzhu, payload expert Gui The tide is composed of 3 astronauts. This is the first time that my country’s third group of astronauts has performed a flight mission, and it is also the “first show” of the “new members” of my country’s astronaut team – aerospace flight engineers and payload experts. Tomorrow, a brand-new crew composed of three types of astronauts will go to space to perform the first manned mission in the application and development phase of the space station. The Shenzhou-16 crewed spaceship is scheduled to be launched at 9:31 a.m. Tuesday 30th May 2023 Beijing Time from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China, Inner Mongolia, China, People’s Republic of China.  in which they will join with the Shenzhou 15 Crew together record breaking of six months. .

On the Same time during the Shenzhou 16 Takionaut Crew announcement it is also announcement of the China, People’s Republic of China’s CNSA-CMS China National Space Administration –China Manned Space Program of the Manned Lunar Landing within seven years of Year 2030 or least.. the scheduled for a manned landing was discussion previously but with a conclusion using the Next Generation长征十号 Chang Zheng- Long March 10F Manned Freighter Carrier Rocket Developed by China Academy of launch Vehicles with a landing vehicle module …  

During the Shenzhou 16 Chang Zheng –Long March 2F Carrier Rocket announcement With the help of the Dongfeng of the Shenzhou 16 mission, at the press conference of the manned flight mission, China’s manned mission to the moon was officially announced: China’s manned mission to the moon has been…. launched, and the goal is to complete the mission by 2030. The Chinese Takionauts sent it to the surface of the moon. Specifically, it includes carrying out lunar scientific investigations and related technical experiments, making breakthroughs and mastering key technologies such as manned ground-to-moon round trips, short-term mainstream human-machine joint exploration of the lunar surface, and completing multiple tasks such as “landing, patrolling, mining, research, and returning” to form an independent Manned lunar exploration capability …..Lin Xiqiang, deputy director of the CMSA China Manned Space Agency (CMSA), said at the conference that China has recently initiated the lunar landing phase of its manned lunar exploration program.

At present, the China Manned Space Engineering Office has fully deployed and carried out various research and construction work, including the development of a new generation of manned launch vehicles (Long March 10), a new generation of manned spacecraft, lunar landers, lunar landing suits and other flight products, New launch sites related to test launch facilities and equipment,

The overall goal is to achieve China’s first manned landing on the moon by 2030 and carry out lunar scientific exploration and related technological experiments, he added.

It has travelled nearly 1.5 kilometers and released more than 940.1GB scientific data of scientific data at all levels.

 Blessings for the Year of the Rabbit! This year is the traditional Chinese Year of the Rabbit. In the hearts of Chinese people, the most famous rabbit must be the “Jade Rabbit” from ancient Chinese myths. . China Aerospace has such a “Jade Rabbit”, which also lives on the moon. It is the “Yutu-2” lunar rover in my country’s lunar exploration project. On the occasion of the Chinese New Year in the Year of the Rabbit, it sent back the latest photographs from the moon 380,000 kilometers away, sending a New Year blessing.
