In China it was morning when the Shenzhou 9 spacecraft landed in Siziwang county in Inner Mongolia. The landing was carried out using a parachute to slow the Shenzhou 9 descent but it was still rough, with the spacecraft turning upside down. The official statements arrived shortly after, however, reassure that the crew members – Jing Haipeng, Liu Wang, and the first Chinese woman in space Liu Yang – are all well.
