Shenzhou 12
Shenzhou 12 (Chinese: 神舟十二号)) was a Chinese spaceflight launched on 17 June 2021. The flight marked the seventh crewed Chinese spaceflight and the twelfth flight of the Shenzhou program. The spacecraft carried three members of the People's Liberation Army Astronaut Corps (PLAAC) on the first flight to the Tianhe core module, the first module of the Tiangong space station.
Shenzhou 12 successfully undocked from the Tianhe core module on 16 September 2021 and subsequently performed a radial rendezvous test with the Tianhe core module, which was completed on the same day. The reentry module returned to Earth on 17 September 2021. At 92 days, the mission set a new national human spaceflight duration record, surpassing Shenzhou 11's 33 days.
