China launched its Shenzhou 8 spacecraft
When in China it was dawn, the spacecraft Shenzhou 8 took off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center using a modified Long March 2F rocket, the most powerful made by the Chinese. This is an unmanned spacecraft that after two days should make the first docking of an unmanned spacecraft attempted by the Chinese. The docking will occur with the module Tiangong 1, which was put in orbit last September.
