Description
Images of the launch site of China's Shenzhou-17 manned mission at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in the Gobi desert and an interview with China's first astronaut in space, Yang Liwei. The Asian giant will send its youngest-ever crew of astronauts to the Tiangong space station on Thursday. Tiangong is the crown jewel of Beijing's space programme, which has also landed robotic rovers on Mars and the Moon and made China the third country to put humans in orbit. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
