China has successfully launched a fresh crew into orbit. The Shenzhou-16 spacecraft transported three taikonauts, including China's first civilian space traveler, to the Tiangong space station this week. It marks the first manned mission since the space station entered its application and development stage. How does the mission set the stage for the future objectives of China's space program, particularly the goal of sending humans to the moon by 2030? As multiple nations and organizations increasingly engage in space exploration, how can we safeguard the pursuit of knowledge and foster international cooperation in this evolving landscape? Host Zhao Ying is joined by Xu Yansong, Director of International Cooperation at China National Space Administration; Zhang Fan, Associate Professor of the Astronomy Department at Beijing Normal University; and Professor Quentin Parker, Director of the Laboratory for Space Research at the University of Hong Kong.
