China's Next-Gen Crewed Spacecraft Set for 2027 Launch
China's next-generation crewed spacecraft, capable of carrying up to seven astronauts, is expected to make its first flight between 2027 and 2028. The new spacecraft will be used for crewed lunar missions, building China's space station, and deep-space exploration. Recent tests on the return capsule have been successful, and the new spacecraft will consist of two modules, allowing for larger carrying capacity. China aims to send astronauts to the moon by 2030.
