SHENZHOU-13 LAUNCH: Crew enters China space station's Tianhe core module

Three taikonauts have entered China's space station, nearly 10 hours after lift-off. The trio spoke to Earth from Tianhe core module. Early Saturday morning, the Shenzhou-13 crew performed the first-ever manned radial rendezvous and docking. Amongst them is the first woman to visit China's space station. They lifted off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China at 23 minutes past midnight on Saturday. They'll stay on the space station for six months to do further systems checks and a range of other experiments. The country aims to complete the Tiangong space station by the end of 2022.
