News on June 17 According to the China Manned Space Engineering Office, the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft successfully completed its orbital status setting after it entered orbit. At 15:54 on June 17, 2021, Beijing time, it will adopt autonomous rapid rendezvous and docking. The model was successfully docked at the forward port of the Tianhe core cabin, forming a three-cabin (ship) combination with the previously docked Tianzhou-2 cargo spacecraft. The entire rendezvous and docking process lasted about 6.5 hours.

This is the first rendezvous and docking with a manned spacecraft after the Tianhe core module was launched into orbit. According to the mission implementation plan, three astronauts will then enter the Tianhe core module from the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft.

Ji Qiming, assistant director of the China Manned Space Engineering Office, introduced at the press conference that the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft flight crew is composed of astronauts Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo. Nie Haisheng serves as commander and backup astronaut. They are Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping, and Ye Guangfu.

Among the three astronauts, super astronaut Nie Haisheng has participated in the Shenzhou 6 and Shenzhou 10 manned missions, super astronaut Liu Boming has participated in the Shenzhou 7 manned mission, and the second astronaut Tang Hongbo is the first flight.

The China Manned Space Engineering Office held a press conference at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on the morning of the 16th. Ji Qiming, assistant to the director of the office, announced that after the research and decision of the space station stage flight mission command headquarters, it will aim at launching the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft at 9:22 on June 17th, Beijing time. The Long March 2 F remote launch mission will be carried out. Twelve Rockets carried out propellant refueling on the morning of the 16th.
