"Three, two, one... liftoff!" With all systems ready to go, the engines of the Long March-2F carrier rocket ignited, propelling the Shenzhou-11 spacecraft into the sky. China’s latest launch on Monday saw a two-man crew blast off towards the Tiangong-2 space lab for a 33-day stay in space, the country’s longest-ever manned space mission.
