Two weeks after the successful return of the Shenzhou 9 spacecraft, the three Chinese astronauts who completed China's first manned space docking mission have met the press.
Liu Yang, China's first woman astronaut, together with veteran astronaut Jing Haipeng and crewmate Liu Wang, returned to Earth on June the 29th, five days after the docking between Shenzhou-9 and the Tiangong-1 space lab module. The astronauts also conducted a series of scientific tests during the 13-day space flight.
All three are all in good health after a two-week rest, gradually acclimatizing back to earth's environment and gravity. And they are scheduled to continue recovery exercises in the following days.
