The return of the ship "Shenzhou-20" to Earth was postponed
The return of the Chinese Shenzhou-20 spacecraft to Earth was postponed due to a collision of the aircraft, presumably with small space debris. This was reported on November 5 by China Central Television (CCTV).
"To ensure the safety and health of astronauts, as well as the full success of the mission, it was decided to postpone the Shenzhou-20 mission, originally scheduled for November 5," the publication says.
It is specified that a collision check and risk assessment are currently underway.
China Central Television reported on April 24 that China had launched the Shenzhou-20 spacecraft with three taikonauts into space. The crew consisted of taikonauts Chen Dong (commander), Chen Zhongrui and Wang Jie. The team will work in the orbital laboratory until October.
