Shenzhou 20 Docks with China's Tiangong Space Station | JQJO

China's Shenzhou 20 mission, carrying three astronauts, successfully docked with the Tiangong space station on April 24, 2025. The mission launched earlier that day and will last six months. This is the ninth crewed mission to Tiangong, a smaller version of the ISS. The arrival coincides with the anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope's launch in 1990. The Shenzhou 20 crew will briefly overlap with the Shenzhou 19 crew before their return to Earth.
