Details are pending. \nXinhua says the landing is in the early morning of November 4\, which would mean mid-afternoon November 3 EST\, but the exact time was not announced. “The return capsule of the Shenzhou-18 manned spaceship\, carrying three astronauts\, is scheduled to touch down on Earth in the early morning on Nov. 4.” \nThe United States changes to standard time on November 3 at 2:00 am.  That afternoon\, the time zone difference between Beijing and Eastern Standard Time is 13 hours.  Nov. 4\, 4:00 am Beijing Time\, for example\, is Nov 3\, 3:00 pm EST.
