I have found at: http://bbs.qx818.com/thread-141564-1-1.html interesting photos, but none of back-up crew :(

On your link: http://bbs.qx818.com/thread-141564-1-1.html the second photo looks like a photoshop fake... look at the two faces and the hairs, something of the two photos is manipulated.

I spotted that too. For some reason, her head from the photo in uniform has been photoshopped onto the spacesuit picture? Very strange, as this seem to be her formal spacesuit portrait.

A nice selection of pictures from  the flag and tree ceremony too, but as you say, still no images of the B/U crew - just that one rather grainy shot of all six?

Still no complete backup crew named?

Hi Joachim, welcome to the forum!

I think we can be 100% sure of the Nie/Zhang/Wang crew. Although there has been no formal announcement, we are 100% certain of the identities of Nie and Wang, from earlier images. Zhang has also been identified in Chinese media and some personal info. was published by newspapers in his home town, so I think we can be 99% sure on him too.

Hi All,

New here to these parts. I just read Rui Barbosa article on Shenzhou mission on the front page where it says that the orbital module has its own solar panels but seeing some of the pictures earlier in this thread, I can't see any solar panels on that part of the spaceship, only on the service module. Is this correct?

Cheers,
JT355

p.s. Congrats China!!!

You are right. SZ-9 has no solar panels on the orbital module.

Do The Farmers get to keep the rocket parts that fall on them?

I don't think so. Everything is collected by the military (some parts may still contain toxics on them).

This site (halfway down) gives an overview of all six crewmembers (prime and back-up).

Photo's of the crater the LES made here; http://news.xinhuanet.com/photo/2012-06/17/c_123294842_3.htm

I am not sure, but I think this has not been posted here yet:
Here is a report about the LES on CNTV with some interesting footage of the assembly and some LES launch test. http://news.cntv.cn/china/20120614/109246.shtml (Footage starts at about 1:19)
(I have no idea, how the ejection seat test on a rocket sled shown around 1:32 relates to the LES.)
At the end of the report some figures are shown (3, 73, 1.5, 500). Could somebody who understands Chinese please translate the meaning?

Google translation of that website says that the pics on that site show "Shenzhou VIII" fairing?

The LES motors fire for 3 seconds and provides 73 tonnes of thrust. The system can brings the spacecraft up to 1.5 kilometers vertically and 500 meters horizontally away from the malfunctioned rocket.

Yup the article is about the Shenzhou 9 fairing, but the photos are from the Shenzhou 8 launch.
