Although there is a discussion in China about the future possibilities, no Chinese astronauts (taikonauts) have ever reached the Moon. A Chinese robot probe orbited the Moon for 16 months from 2007 to 2009.

There have been three manned orbital space flights by China :

  • Shenzhou 5 (2003) carried one astronaut and made 14 orbits in 21 hours.
  • Shenzhou 6 (2005) carried two astronauts and made 75 Earth orbits in 4 days, 19 hours.
  • Shenzhou 7 (2008) carried three astronauts and was almost 3 days long, including a spacewalk and a fly-by to within 45 km of the International Space Station.
