Shenzhou-10 to Dock With Tiangong-1
Share

The Shenzhou-10 spacecraft is scheduled to dock with the Tiangong-1, a target orbiter and space module sent to space in 2011, around noon on Thursday.

In coming days, the Shenzhou-10 crew will conduct two space dockings with the unmanned Tiangong-1 space module, one automatic and one manual.

As they orbit the Earth, the crew will educate young people about science.

Wang, the main lecturer, will teach them about motion in a microgravity environment and about the surface tension of liquids. She will also help students understand the concepts of weight and mass and Newton's Laws, giving demonstrations and interacting with students and teachers on Earth.
