Viewers now have another way to learn more about the history of China's space program, courtesy of a photograph exhibition that started its tour of the country in Beijing on Tuesday.
The hundred or so photos capture almost all the essential moments of China's space history, and focuses on the country's first manned space program which began one month ago.
For the first time, the public can catch a glimpse of what it's like in the Jiuquan satellite launch center, and get to see the day to day life of those behind the scenes.
