Spacecraft Enters China's Territorial Air Space

Shenzhou-5, China's first manned spacecraft, entered the country's territorial air space Thursday morning, according to a monitor station at Hotan in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in northwest China.

On a large screen in the Beijing Aerospace Command and Control Center, the curve indicating real-time movement of the spaceship showed the spacecraft was flying over China's territory.

The re-entry capsule of Shenzhou-5 is expected to land somewhere in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region soon.
