SUMMARY:RETURN OF SHENZHOU-20 CHINESE SPACE STATION CREW\, Nov 14\, 2025\, Dongfeng\, China\, 3:20 am EST?
DESCRIPTION:Update\, November 13\, 8:25 pm ET:  China has finally clarified the situation. Xinhua says the Shenzhou-20 crew will return tomorrow\, but in the Shenzhou-21 spacecraft. A new spacecraft\, Shenzhou-22\, will be launched “at the appropriate time” that the Shenzhou-21 crew presumably will use to come home.  Xinhua did not\, however\, confirm the time for the landing. \nOriginal Entry: On November 4\, China announced the delay of the return of the Shenzhou-20 space station crew because of concern that their spacecraft was struck by space debris. \nLittle information has been publicly released since. \nAs of November 13\, 12:00 pm EST\, China’s official news agency Xinhua has not published a return date\, but China space watchers are expecting a landing tomorrow\, November 14\, between 16:20-16:50 Beijing time (3:20-3:50 am Eastern Standard Time) based on airspace closure notices near the Dongfeng landing site. \n\nThere’s an airspace closure notice suggesting Shenzhou-20 will return to Earth between 0820-0850 UTC on Friday (Nov. 14). No official statement from China’s human spaceflight agency yet. https://t.co/WHgFWNOLMt \n— Andrew Jones (@AJ_FI) November 12\, 2025 \n \n\nThe crew of the Shenzhou 20 manned spaceflight will return to the Dongfeng landing site\, with a no-fly zone issued from 16:20 to 16:50 Beijing Time on November 14\, 2025.
