The Shenzhou-17 crew opened the hatch at 5:04 a.m. (Beijing Time). The three space station occupants greeted the new arrivals, and they took group pictures.
The space get-together of the two crews kicked off the fourth in-orbit crew rotation in China's space station.
According to the China Manned Space Agency, the six astronauts will live and work together for about 5 days to complete planned tasks and handover work.
