Xinhua Jiuquan, Gansu Province, September 29 (Reporter Xu aspirations, new SUN Yan, Li Huizi) with the Temple I was at 21:16 on the 29th launch, China to the space station era has taken a solid step forward.

This is the Long March series of carrier rockets of the first 147 flight, but also the implementation of China’s manned space launch since the 8th.

Jiuquan satellite launch site on autumn’s stars shine, new and improved Long March II FT1 rocket blasted off, a bright shiny red plume desert sky.

chief commander of China’s manned spaceflight always foolproof announced the successful launch.

1999 first spacecraft to fly in space launch at the Temple, 12 years, China’s manned space project to build a solid pace for this 19 years ago launched a manned space station aerospace engineering when it was determined goals.

1.5 km from the launch pad factory, Shenzhou VIII and the Long March II F rocket has been tested. In early November, Shenzhou VIII will be the same launch pad in the sky, in space rendezvous and docking with Temple One – which will make China the world’s first space rendezvous and docking technology to master the three countries.

28 afternoon at a news conference, spokesman for China’s manned space project, said Wu Ping, the end of 2012, China will be launched Shenzhou 九号, 10 Temple One spacecraft rendezvous and docking with the .

length of 10.4 meters of the Temple One capsule form from the JEM and the resources and the body maximum diameter 3.35 meters, a lot larger than the Shenzhou spacecraft.

“If the spacecraft is the ‘dwelling’, Temple One can reach the ‘off’ level.” Space laboratory system, said deputy chief designer of Bai Mingsheng, JEM effective space of about 15 cubic meters, meet two to three astronauts in the cabin, working and living needs.

“Temple One is manned by the state off of.” Bai Mingsheng said, “God does not Exalted eight, but preferably to the Shenzhou 10 will test some of the rendezvous and docking.”

with the U.S., Russia to carry out the initial use of the two spacecraft rendezvous and docking test, the Chinese Temple One developed as a new rendezvous and docking of the target vehicle. “It’s in-orbit lifetime of two years, many times during the rendezvous and docking with the spacecraft.” Zhou Jianping, chief designer of China’s manned space project, said, “This can reduce the number of launches, and more economical.”

Zhou Jianping said Temple One follow-up by China’s space laboratory to design, therefore, it also shoulder some of the key technologies of the verification mission to the space station.

“astronauts have been preparing for Teng Temple.” Astronauts, said Wang Xianmin deputy chief designer of the system, regenerative environmental control and life support technology and other key technologies will also be in the station at Temple on the experimental verification .

2016 China will develop and launch a space laboratory. The construction of the space station after 2020.

Shan, deputy chief designer of space applications from that Temple One pilot project on the arrangements. Follow-up of the Shenzhou VIII, and German will be the first joint space life science experiments.

“We want to build an open platform for national space experiments.” Zhou Jianping, said in the past, the Chinese who invented the world’s four major contributions. The future benefit of mankind in the development of space, we hope to make more contributions.
