At the invitation of the HKSAR Government, China's Yuanwang-6 space tracking ship will arrive in Hong Kong on April 29 for a six-day visit.
The visit kicks off a host of activities in Hong Kong to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Construction of Yuanwang-6 was completed in 2008. It represents a new generation of space tracking ships designed and manufactured by China. On its maiden voyage last September, Yuanwang-6 was engaged in maritime tracking of the Shenzhou-7 manned space mission.
