China Shenzhou-13 Space Station Mission Documentary Trailer (4K Ultra HD)

China's Shenzhou-13 crew used two 8K cameras to film the first ever 8K documentary on China's Space Station called Tiangong. Ahead of the Shenzhou-14 launch, an ultra-HD trailer was released by the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA). Enjoy these epic shots! Looking forward to seeing the full film soon . . .

The Shenzhou 13 long duration three-person crew mission launched October 15, 2021, on a Long March-2F launch vehicle from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center located in the Gobi Desert of Inner Mongolia. It was the eighth crewed Chinese spaceflight and the thirteenth flight of the Shenzhou space program since 2003. The Shenzhou spacecraft carried three People's Liberation Army Astronaut Corps (PLAAC) taikonauts on the second flight to the Tianhe core module, the first module of China's Tiangong Space Station.  

The Shenzhou 13 reentry spacecraft successfully undocked from the Tianhe core module on April 15, 2022, and performed a series of fast return de-orbit procedures enabling it to touchdown on Earth nine hours later. The reentry module returned on April 16, 2022. At 182 days, the mission set a new national human spaceflight long duration record for China surpassing Shenzhou 12's 92 days.
