Three Chinese taikonauts--Zhai Zhigang, Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng--on the Shenzhou 7 spacecraft, China's third manned spaceflight, told the ground control center that they felt "physically sound" in the first few minutes of the flight. The space voyager took off at 9:10 p.m. on Thursday from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. (Xinhua) |
