“Beijing, I have landed safely and the return module is smooth.”

On the morning of April 16, 2022 Beijing time, the return module of Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft successfully returned to the ground under the control of ground instructions and landed successfully in the predetermined area of Dongfeng landing site. The physical condition of astronauts Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and ye Guangfu was normal. The re-entry module was upright when landing. It is reported that this is the first time since Shenzhou VI. Experts said that this will be more conducive to the astronauts’ gravity adaptation process.

The Shenzhou 13 crew worked and lived in the space station assembly for 183 days, setting a new record for the space residence time of Chinese astronauts on a single mission.

At 0:44 on April 16, 2022, the Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft was successfully separated from the space station’s Tianhe core module. Before separation, with the cooperation of ground scientific and technological personnel, the astronauts and crew completed the pre evacuation work such as the state setting of the space station assembly, the sorting and transmission of experimental data, and the cleaning and transfer of orbital materials.

After six months in orbit, the Shenzhou 13 crew completed many tasks, such as hand-controlled teleoperation rendezvous and docking test, space station manipulator transposition cargo spacecraft test and so on. Among them, the hand-controlled teleoperation rendezvous and docking test is the first time that astronauts use the hand-controlled teleoperation equipment in orbit to control the cargo spacecraft to rendezvous and dock with the space station, which preliminarily verifies the function and performance of the hand-controlled teleoperation system between the space station and the visiting aircraft and the rationality of the collaborative work program between heaven and earth.

Relying on the China space station and Shenzhou 13, China has established a long-term cell culture system and cell model under space conditions for the first time. Using this system and training model, scientific researchers have completed several internationally leading life science experiments. In addition, Chinese researchers have also completed the first suspension culture experiment of skin stem cells under long-term weightlessness in the world.

Before the return flight, the astronauts changed into the cabin pressure suit they had worn during the expedition; After the re-entry module enters the atmosphere, its bottom temperature will be as high as thousands of degrees Celsius. There will be vibration and noise overload in the module, and it will experience a “black barrier” for 4-6 minutes, and temporarily lose contact with the ground.

God 13’s return to earth is roughly divided into five steps:

① Separation and evacuation: people on the “Shenzhou” spacecraft are separated from the space station assembly; ② Braking off orbit: the spacecraft enters the return orbit from the original flight orbit through attitude adjustment, braking and deceleration; ③ Inertial taxiing: wait for the opportunity of reentry, and separate the propulsion module and return module of the spacecraft; ④ Re entry into the atmosphere: the re-entry module has passed through the black barrier and experienced the test; ⑤ Landing: parachute opening, reverse thrust and landing.

As China’s manned spacecraft with the longest stay in orbit, Shenzhou 13 also has the fastest way to return. Shenzhou 13 made a rapid return around the earth for the first time, compared with 11 before; It took more than an hour for the spacecraft to return from the Shenzhou 9 to the ground, but it took more than an hour for the spacecraft to return from the core station. According to the CCTV reporter, the return landing position is accurate and the whole process control is very accurate.
