The Shenzhou VII spacecraft and its carrier rocket were assembled on Thursday evening, the latest step toward the launch of China’s third manned space mission.

Drinking water (about 2.5 kg for each of the three crew members), food, traditional Chinese medicine and other materials were put onboard the ship on Friday, as it prepares to be transferred to the launch pad.

Shenzhou VII is scheduled to lift off at 9:10 p.m. on Thursday – weather permitting – at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on the border of Gansu province and the Inner Mongolia autonomous region.
