On May 30th, the Long March 2F carrier rocket carrying the Shenzhou 16 manned spacecraft ignited and took off at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, successfully sending astronauts Jing Haipeng, Zhu Yangzhu, and Gui Haichao into space. The Shenzhou 16 manned spacecraft was successfully launched, and the first manned flight mission began after the full completion of China's space station. In this Shenzhou 16 manned spacecraft mission, space pilots, aerospace Flight Engineer, and load experts made their debut together for the first time, and the rocket spacecraft was "upgraded again". What are the highlights of the entire flight mission? In the future, what are the expectations for selecting a new batch of astronauts and launching manned lunar landings? Highlights 1: The Shenzhou 16 manned mission is the second mission of the manned space project this year and the first manned mission in the application and development stage of China's space station. As the first passenger group ushered in at this stage, the Shenzhou 16 passenger group received widespread attention before it had "set off". The crew of Shenzhou 16 is composed of astronauts Jing Haipeng, Zhu Yangzhu, and Gui Haichao, with Jing Haipeng serving as the commander. Lin Xiqiang, spokesperson for the China Manned Space Engineering News Agency and deputy director of the China Manned Space Engineering Office, introduced that Jing Haipeng has participated in Shenzhou 7, 9, and 11 manned flight missions, with Zhu Yangzhu and Gui Haichao both making their first flights. The characteristics of the Shenzhou 16 crew can be summarized as "comprehensive", "new", and "multiple". "All": for the first time, it includes three types of astronauts: "aerospace pilot, aerospace Flight Engineer, and payload expert". "New": The third batch of astronauts carried out the mission for the first time, which was also the first flight of aerospace Flight Engineer and payload experts. "Duo": Astronaut Jing Haipeng is on his fourth flight mission, becoming the most frequently flown astronaut in China so far. Astronaut Jing Haipeng and aerospace Flight Engineer Zhu Yangzhu from the astronaut team are mainly responsible for the direct manipulation and management of spacecraft, as well as carrying out relevant technical tests. Load expert Gui Haichao is a professor and doctoral supervisor at Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He has received professional training in fields such as science and aerospace engineering and has rich operational experience. In addition, the selection of the fourth batch of reserve astronauts in China is progressing in an orderly manner according to plan, and it is planned to complete all the selection work by the end of this year. As of March this year, the preliminary selection process has been completed, with over 100 candidates entering the selection stage and more than 10 candidates from Hong Kong and Macau regions entering the selection process. Point 2: The Long March 2F carrier rocket, which is difficult to launch during the "re upgrade" rendezvous and docking of rocket spacecraft, is the only type of manned carrier rocket currently in service in China, with a success rate of 100%. High reliability and safety "is the constant pursuit of manned rockets. According to Chang Wuquan, the chief designer of the Long March 2F carrier rocket at the First Institute of Aerospace Science and Technology Group, there are a total of 20 technical changes in this rocket compared to the previous one. The development team focuses on improving redundancy and process improvement, continuously improving the reliability of the rocket. In addition, the development team takes measures such as adjusting the testing sequence, working in parallel, and integrating testing projects while ensuring launch reliability
