China launches the Shenzhou XV spaceship on Nov 29. The three astronauts Fei Junlong, Deng Qingming and Zhang Lu of the Shenzhou XV mission entered China’s space station Tiangong on Nov 30. They met with their peers from the Shenzhou XIV mission: Chen Dong, Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe, who have been in space for nearly six months. This historic gathering marks (标志) the first time that six Chinese people have been in space at the same time. After the handover (交接) work is done, the Shenzhou XV astronauts will stay in space for six months and carry out tasks including three to four spacewalks and more than 40 scientific experiments.
