The list of 14 astronauts selected in 1998 included Deng Qingming, Li Qinglong, Wu Jie, Chen Quan, Zhao Chuandong, Pan Zhanchun, and others.
China's second batch of astronauts was selected in May 2009. After three stages of review, five male astronauts and two female astronauts were selected from the active pilots of the Air Force. These astronauts all had a bachelor's degree and were between 30 and 35 years old, with an average age of 32.4 years old. Among them, five male astronauts were active Air Force fighter pilots and two female astronauts were active transport pilots. Most of them had carried out major flight missions such as earthquake relief and military exercises in the Sichuan earthquake. They had excellent flight skills and excellent psychological quality. These astronauts would receive intense and arduous learning and training tasks in order to realize the transformation from pilots to astronauts as soon as possible and shoulder the mission of China's manned space flight. Compared with the first batch of astronauts, the selection criteria for the second batch of astronauts paid more attention to the age factor. When they were selected, they were generally around 30 years old, nearly 10 years younger than the first batch of astronauts. In addition, the selection of the third batch of astronauts would be more relaxed. Not only would they have to select aerospace pilots from the Air Force pilots, but they would also have to select engineers and technicians from the professional fields of aerospace related technology to meet the needs of aerospace flight engineering.
The names of the astronauts of Divine Nine were Jing Haipeng, Liu Wang, and Liu Yang. The names of the Shenshi astronauts were Nie Haisheng, Zhang Xiaoguang, and Wang Yaping.
I recommend the two novels," Bravehearts from the Other World " and " The Elf Summoner from Earth." " Brave Man from the Other World " told the story of an astronaut who traveled to another world and embarked on a journey with a beautiful girl. " The Elf Summoner from Earth " was a story about an astronaut who traveled to another world. The protagonist became a summoner in the other world. These two novels were in line with the theme of transmigrating into astronauts.
The Shenzhou 12 astronauts were Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming, and Tang Hongbo. On June 17,2021, they successfully flew into the sky on the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft, becoming the first batch of people to enter the China Space Station's Sky and Core module. In the space station, the astronauts carried out a series of operational tasks such as extraterrestrial maintenance, equipment replacement, and scientific application of payloads, setting a new record for the duration of a single flight for Chinese astronauts. They also carried out a spacewalk and completed the real construction task. The astronauts lived in space for nearly a month. They chased after food in space and carried out activities such as space fitness. The mission of the Shenzhou 12 astronauts was a complete success on September 17,2021. The return capsule successfully landed at the Dongfeng landing site, and the astronauts safely and smoothly exited the capsule. This mission marked the beginning of the space station phase of China's manned spaceflight project.
The astronauts of Shenzhou 13 were composed of Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping, and Ye Guangfu. Zhai Zhigang was China's first extraterrestrial astronaut, Wang Yaping had carried out the Shenzhou-10 manned mission, and Ye Guangfu was the first to fly in space. Zhai Zhigang was the commander of this mission. In this mission, the astronauts would stay in orbit for six months, and Chinese female astronauts would also be stationed on the China Space Station for the first time. They had successfully completed many extraterrestrial activities and missions.
The crew of Shenzhou 17 consisted of three astronauts, Tang Hongbo, Tang Shengjie, and Jiang Xinlin. Tang Hongbo served as the commander. The crew consisted of one second-batch astronaut and two third-batch astronauts. They were the youngest astronauts on average since the start of the space station construction mission. Tang Hongbo was a first-class astronaut of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Astronauts Brigade. He was a senior colonel in the Army and had a master's degree. He was once the captain of a certain regiment of the Air Force and was awarded the title of Air Force First Class pilot. Tang Shengjie was born in 1989 and was the youngest in this round. Before he became an astronaut, he was an excellent Air Force pilot. His flight path spread all over the country and he was rated as a first-class pilot of the Air Force. Jiang Xinlin had little personal information, but he was also a member of the astronauts. The Shenzhou-17 astronauts had successfully completed many missions, including extraterrestrial maintenance missions and space science and technology experiments.
The Shenzhou 12 astronauts needed to go through a number of steps to return to Earth. From the separation of the spacecraft from the core module to the final return to the ground, the astronauts needed more than 20 hours. During this time, the astronauts had completed the space station's evacuation, orbit, and rendezvous tests, which meant that they had completed the first two steps of the return. The specific return steps included: separating the spacecraft from the core module, changing into the cabin pressure suit, conducting the flight around test and the radial-intersection test, entering the return orbit, entering the atmosphere, passing through the " black barrier " area, opening the guide parachute, the deceleration parachute, and the main parachute, and decelerating the descent with the parachute. During the return process, the astronauts had to withstand a huge overload and high temperature, but because of the use of special materials, the astronauts could not feel any obvious temperature changes in the cabin. Finally, the astronauts would land safely through the Dongfeng landing field. In general, the Shenzhou 12 astronauts needed to go through multiple steps to return to Earth. Each step was to ensure their safe return and smooth landing.
In 2024, the Shenzhou 17 astronauts were composed of Tang Hongbo, Tang Shengjie, and Jiang Xinlin. They successfully completed the Shenzhou 17 manned flight mission, including extraterrestrial activities and extraterrestrial maintenance missions. On April 30, 2024, they returned to Earth safely and successfully landed at the Dongfeng Landing Field. The astronauts were in good health and the mission was a complete success. Tang Hongbo became China's longest-flying astronaut, with a total of 215 days in orbit. The return of the Shenzhou 17 astronauts marked the successful completion of their mission and their safe arrival in Beijing.
The Shenzhou-16 astronauts were composed of Jing Haipeng, Zhu Yangzhu, and Gui Haichao.
The crew of Shenzhou 17 consisted of three astronauts, Tang Hongbo, Tang Shengjie, and Jiang Xinlin. Among them, Tang Hongbo was the commander. The crew consisted of one second batch of astronauts and two third batch of astronauts. This was the youngest average age of astronauts since the start of the space station construction mission.
