Shenzhou 12 hatch opening: the Shenzhou 12 crew entered the Tianhe core module on 17 June 2021, at 10:48 UTC (18:48 China Standard Time).
Astronauts Nie Haisheng (commander), Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo will spend three months on board Tianhe core module, the first and main component of the China Space Station, informally known as Tiangong (Heavenly Palace).

Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo will live in China's Tiangong space station for three months. They were allowed to carry some personal items with them. Here are the things they chose to take into outer space with them.

An incredible achievement to pull off on the first attempt. The images remind me of the Soviets setting the "ground rules" for permanent manned spaceflight on Mir starting in 1986. The Chinese are obviously repeating that experience again. I wish them many safe missions!

Shenzhou 12 astronauts Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo are performing the first of two planned spacewalks outside China's space station.

It is only the second extravehicular activity in the Chinese space program's history.

The Shenzhou 12 crew may be returning to Earth on Friday (Sept. 17) between 1:14 a.m. and 1:44 a.m. EDT. From Andrew Jones (via Twitter):

Looks like the Shenzhou-12 astronauts are returning between 0514-0544 UTC on Friday. This will be a first Shenzhou landing near Dongfeng, to the northeast of Jiuquan launch center, in the Gobi Desert. Old landing area was grasslands of Siziwang (Dorbod Banner).
