Shenzhou 7 will take off in October 2008

On June 12, the AFP news agency quoted from Xinhua, China decided in October, the country will launch the third manned spacecraft into space for the third time.

This promises to be a leap of Chinese cosmic science when it is the first time the country's space walk will be made.

Currently, the identity of astronauts who have made this mission has not yet been determined, and the official launch date has not yet been made by China.

According to AFP, it is expected that the launch of the next Shenzhou 7 spacecraft will be announced around the end of September, after the Beijing Olympics ends.

It is known that since 2003, China has named itself on the list of countries capable of bringing people into space (formerly Russia, USA) with the Shenzhou 5 ship carrying hero Duong Loi Vy.

By 2005, China increased the number of astronauts following the Shenzhou 6 to 2 people. In this third launch, it is expected that Shenzhou 7 will bring 3 astronauts.
