Astronaut Fei Junlong was the first to go out of the return capsule of the Shenzhou-15 spaceship, after the module landed safely in north China's Inner Mongolia on Sunday.

Upon landing, Fei and the two other crew members of the spaceship reported their good condition to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center. The three astronauts will be transferred to Beijing later. The Shenzhou-15 spacecraft successfully separated from the space station combination at 21:29 Beijing Time on Saturday.

The Shenzhou-15 crew completed a historic in-orbit crew rotation with the Shenzhou-14 crew, the first in China's space history. During the past months, the crew has completed four extravehicular activities, setting a domestic record for most spacewalks conducted by a single crew.
