Chinese astronauts returned to earth after completing the country’s longest-ever crewed mission Shenzhou-12 of 90 days.
In a small capsule three astronauts landed safely in the Gobi desert in the inner region of Mongolia, Northern China at 01:34 pm (05:34 GMT) state broadcaster CCTV reported.
The Shenzhou-12 mission was the first of four crewed missions planned for 2021-2022 as China assembles its first permanent space station. The process requires 11 missions, including the launches of the station’s three modules.
