Main events of the Shenzhou-12 landing

The 3 astronauts look tired and exhausted during the short interview. Hopefully, it's nothing serious and the result of 3 months stay in orbit and having to adapt back to the gravity environment.

This is the first time China has completed a manned space mission in nearly five years. The safety of taikoonauts is the most important aspect of any space program. Great news.

The landing was a little hairy due to the heavy wind conditions, but everything went well!
Many congratulations are in order for the completion of this mission. Onwards!
