　　In addition, the Russian Federal Space Agency also sent a congratulatory message: "Congratulations to our Chinese counterparts for successfully sending the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft and three astronauts into the Tianhe core capsule. China has taken a big step forward! We We can do more together!"

　　Recently, Russia has shown a positive willingness to cooperate with Chinese aviation.

Rogozin, President of the Russian National Aerospace Corporation, said on June 15 that Russia and China are discussing the issue of Russian astronauts "visiting" the Chinese space station, which is also part of the international lunar research station construction project.

Rogozin pointed out that the orbit of the Chinese Space Station is different from that of the International Space Station.

Therefore, manned flights can be carried out from Russia's Eastern Space Launch Site.

On the 16th, during the 2021 Global Space Exploration Conference, Russia and China announced the road map for the construction of an international lunar research station.

"Hope to cooperate with Chinese counterparts"

Experts say China promotes its image as a space power

　　After the successful launch of China's Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft, Russian experts said that Chinese astronauts and engineers have achieved great success and are happy for them and hope that they will make new achievements in space exploration.

Russian Satellite Network reported that experts believe that the Tiangong space station is comparable to the International Space Station and the Russian Mir space station.

At 9:22 on June 17, Beijing time, the Long March 2 F Yao 12 carrier rocket carrying the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft was ignited and launched on time at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

　　Sergey Zhukov, an aerospace tester, chairman of the Moscow Space Club, and official member of the Russian Aerospace Research Institute, pointed out that Chinese experts have achieved great success.

He said: "China's achievements in the space field are obvious to all...I hope that in the next generation of manned space stations or manned missions, such as the lunar exploration program, Russian astronauts and engineers can cooperate with their Chinese counterparts."

　　Sergei Zhukov believes that through this flight, it can be seen that "China has a strong competitiveness in the fields of space exploration and commercial aerospace."

　　Singapore’s "Lianhe Zaobao" published an article on the 18th that experts pointed out that the construction of a cared-for space station has a very high threshold and difficulty. Previously, only the Soviet Union (Russia) and the United States had crossed this threshold.

Three Chinese astronauts officially stationed in the independently developed space station, marking that China has become a powerful "new player" in this high-tech field.
