Headline: Stranded Chinese Astronauts to Return Home Friday After Space Debris Delay
Beijing – November 14, 2025 – The three Chinese astronauts aboard the Shenzhou-20 mission, whose return to Earth was unexpectedly delayed by a collision with space debris last week, are now scheduled to land safely on Friday, November 14, 2025. The China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) announced the updated return plan in a statement released early this morning.
The astronauts will return aboard the Shenzhou-21 vessel, which was originally intended for a different mission. The launch of the Shenzhou-22 spacecraft, which was meant to replace the damaged Shenzhou-21, has been postponed to a later, unspecified date.
The CMSA did not release further details on the damage sustained by Shenzhou-21. News of the incident and subsequent delay has been closely followed by the international space community.
