Minutes later, a crew of technicians began opening the hatch of the capsule, which appeared undamaged.After launching on June 17, mission commander Nie and astronauts Liu and Tang went on two spacewalks, deployed a 10-meter mechanical arm, and had a video call with Communist Party leader Xi Jinping.

The government has not announced the names of the next set of astronauts nor the launch date of Shenzhou-13.
