My China Star

But nine minutes after the launching the ship entered in orbit around of the Land, with a perigee of 200 kilometers of altitude, apogee of 340 kilometers of altitude and inclination of 42,408 in relation to the terrestrial equator (SPACEFACTS, 2010a). During the flight taikonauta Liwei kept intervals of rest to each hour and stocking. Its meal in orbit was exclusively of typical plates of China, what inclua dog meat, as it would come to disclose in a 2010 writing book of memories. The flight of Liwei had the duration of 21 hours and 23 minutes and during the same the ship it completed 14 returns around the Land, settling in plains of the Desert of Gobi, in the Monglia (WALNUT, 2005; SPACEFACTS, 2010a and 2010d). Something that was evident since the first flights of the Shenzhou ship is that the same one is based on the Russian capsule the Soyuz, but with some modifications.

Still under the euphoria of the success of its first manned space mission, in day 21 of October China it launches satellite CBERS-2, also in partnership with Brazil (AEB, 2010). As the space flight manned Chinese had beginning in 12 of October of 2005 when the spaceship Shenzhou-6 took off taking in its interior commander Junlong Fei and copilot Haisheng Nie. The mission, until today the longest space flight manned Chinese, had the duration of 4 days, 19 hours and 32 minutes and the ship completed 76 returns around the Land. During the mission diverse scientific experiences had been carried through, research with sseas cells, high resolution attainment of images of the Land and intensive studies on the behavior of the heart in microgravity (SPACEFACTS, 2010a and 2010d). In 2007 China sent the Chang&#039 sounding lead successfully; e-1 for the Moon. The equipment, that gravitated the Moon for thousand of times during 16 months to mapear the natural satellite of the Land, finished deliberately being launched against proper the ground it celestial body so that, from the Land was observed and studied the cloud of resultant dust (CNSA, 2010).
