The spirit of the manned space program 

China's Manned Space Program was initiated in the early 1990s with the outline of a three-step development strategy.

In October 2003, the Shenzhou-5 manned spaceship, developed independently by China, sent the first Chinese astronaut into space. The Chinese nation's dream of manned space flight had come true.

In October 2005, Shenzhou-6, also developed independently by China, completed a series of manned scientific experiments in space in the true sense. This signified that China's space technology had matched the achievements of the most advanced countries.

These successes were hard-won. Over the years, Chinese scientists created a tradition of relentless hard work under extreme and arduous conditions to solve critical problems and achieve successes.

载人航天精神

中国的载人航天工程于20世纪90年代初期开始筹划,并确定了三步走的发展战略。2003年10月,中国自主研制的“神舟”五号载人飞船把新中国首位航天员成功送入浩瀚太空并安全返回,标志着中国首次载人航天飞行取得圆满成功,实现了中华民族的飞天梦想。2005年10月,中国自主研制的“神舟”六号载人航天飞行取得圆满成功,完成中国真正意义上有人参与的空间科学实验。此后,中国载人航天工程取得了连战连捷的辉煌战绩,中国空间技术发展跨入了国际先进行列。在这一发展进程中,中国航天人自强不息、顽强拼搏、团结协作、开拓创新,取得了辉煌成果,培育铸就了“特别能吃苦、特别能战斗、特别能攻关、特别能奉献”的载人航天精神。
