On April 30, 2024, a magnificent chapter was once again written in the history of China's aerospace industry, when the orbital module and the return module of the Shenzhou-17 manned spacecraft were successfully separated in the spotlight. This moment is not only another milestone in China's aerospace industry, but also the pride and pride of countless aerospace workers and hundreds of millions of Chinese people.
The Shenzhou-17 manned spacecraft completed two precise attitude adjustments in the vast universe, each time as elegant and accurate as a dance. With the start of the return braking, the spacecraft is like a vigorous eagle, speeding steadily in the direction of the earth. The spacecraft is in normal condition, the astronauts are feeling well, they are in stable condition, and they are full of anticipation of going home.
At the same time, the five helicopters of the search and rescue and recovery air detachment have taken off into the sky, like a brave air team, ready to welcome the return of the astronauts at any time. Their task is difficult and sacred, but they are confident because they know that the success of every mission is inseparable from their hard work and close cooperation.
On the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft, the three astronauts also watched the whole process of the three Shenzhou 17 people returning to Earth nervously and excitedly. They are colleagues, comrades-in-arms, and relatives. They paid attention to every movement and expression of the Shenzhou 17 astronauts in real time, because they knew that this was their common mission and their common glory. When the Shenzhou-17 astronauts returned to Earth safely, the Shenzhou-18 astronauts extended their warmest welcome to them and welcomed them home!
