Due to the international date line, it reportedly was the 16th in China when they launched, so it was on the anniversary.
I’m just glad our landlords have this ability.
Living vicariously through other countries is EXACTLY the way I thought we’d go when I was a kid watching Mercury shots! We should be ashamed as a nation.
I imagine the Chinese were aware of the anniversary during scheduling.
I’m sure periods do present a problem in space. Hell, they’re a problem in a gravity well, especially if you’re the husband.
