The Shenzhou 17 Descent Capsule will land in the desert near Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, China, bringing Tang Hongbo, Tang Shengjie and Jiang Xinlin back to Earth after spending six months in orbit as part of the sixth mission to the Chinese Space Station.
The Tiangong space station is a space station placed in Low Earth orbit between 340 and 450 km above the surface. It will be roughly one-fifth the mass of the International Space Station and about the size of the Mir space station.
