China launches new crewed mission into space | BBC News
China has sent a team of three astronauts to its space station in an ambitious goal to become a space power and rival the dominance of Nasa in the US.
Beijing has spent billions of dollars into what President Xi has described as the nation’s “space dream” in recent years.
The all-male trio were sent off with huge fanfare in the remote northwestern desert of the country on Thursday.
The team will work on the station for six months, carrying out experiments and installing protective equipment to maintain the station from space debris.

US President Donald Trump has posted on social media that the US has agreed to a request from Tehran to continue talks, but the ceasefire is over.
After 48 hours of hostilities earlier this week, there’s been no new strikes as of Friday, but Trump’s warning shows the situation remains volatile.
Shipping traffic through the vital Strait of Hormuz has once again slowed to a trickle, and this week’s hostilities means that the United Nations has suspended its plan to evacuate trapped vessels in the Strait.
Meanwhile, in Iran six days of public mourning has ended with the burial of Iran’s late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Today, Andy Burnham’s Labour leadership bid has been backed by 322 Labour MPs.
If no one else enters the contest, as expected, Burnham will be declared Labour leader next week before taking office as prime minister on 20 July. Burnham is currently just one short of securing 323 nominations, which is when it is mathematically impossible for a rival to reach the 81-MP threshold needed to run against him. Adam and Chris discuss.
An interim review of Personal Independence Payments (Pip) in England and Wales had found it to be “not fit for purpose”. Last year, the UK government asked Sir Stephen Timms to review whether Pip was “fair and fit for the future”. His initial report is being published on Thursday ahead of the final recommendations due in the autumn.Adam and Alex discuss with Ben Chu Policy and Analysis Correspondent, BBC Verify.

Prince Harry has completed a five-day trip to the UK, to get ready for the Invictus Games and to attend charity events.
The engagements started on Tuesday in London before moving on to Birmingham.
But as always, much of the focus was on family tensions and whether there are any signs of bridges being built between the returning Sussexes and their royal relations.
The BBC’s Royal Correspondent Daniela Relph followed every twist and turn of the visit as it unfolded.
