Three astronauts from China's Shenzhou-19 space mission entered the Tiangong space station and rendezvoused with another trio of astronauts on Wednesday, beginning a new round of crew transfers in orbit.
Shenzhou-18 crew opened the hatch at 12:51 pm (Beijing time) and welcomed the new arrivals, according to the China Manned Space Flight Agency (CMSA).
The six crew members then took group photos for the fifth space meeting in the history of Chinese space exploration .
They will live and work together for about five days to complete planned tasks and hand over the work, the CMSA said.
The Shenzhou-18 crew must return to landing Dongfeng site in northern China on November 4.
