THE Tianzhou-3 cargo craft, carrying supplies for China’s space station, separated from the orbiting station combination at 10:59 a.m. yesterday, after completing all assigned tasks, according to the China Manned Space Engineering Office.

China launched the Tianzhou-3 on Sept. 20, 2021 from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in the southern province of Hainan, delivering six tonnes of goods to the country’s under-construction space station.

At present, the Tianzhou-3 cargo craft is in good condition and will re-enter the atmosphere under ground control in the future, said the engineering office.
