　　Two China astronauts, Fei Junlong and Nie Haisheng, are safely back on earth after their Shenzhou 6 spacecraft successfully touched down on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia Sunday at 4:32:50 pm, ending a five-day mission and China's second manned space flight.

　　＂I want to thank the people for their love and care,＂ Fei said during the ceremony, in which both astronauts were given flowers and seated in chairs.

　　The Shenzhou 6 crew spent 115 hours and 32 minutes in space, and travelled 2 million miles (3.25 million kilometres) during their mission, which set new human spaceflight records for China.

　　Fei and Nie were sent into space on October 12th, Beijing time on China's second manned spaceflight, the first to carry two astronauts. The spaceship lifted off from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in the Gobi desert almost two years to the day after China's first manned launch.

　　That first mission, Shenzhou 5, launched astonaut Yang Liwei into orbit on October 15th, 2003, China is the third country to independently launched humans into Earth orbit after Russia and the US. But unlike Yang's flight, which the public did not get to see much of, much of Shenzhou 6 mission from lift-off to landing was shown live on national Chinese television. With Shenzhou 6, China has ＂achieved another milestone ... in ... space exploration,＂ said Wu Bangguo, Chairman of the Chinese NPC during his speech which was broadcast live on CCTV.
