To ensure the safety of the Shenzhou 7 astronauts, over 200 emergency plans have been made to deal with every conceivable problem during the spacewalk. Meanwhile, ground crew are closely tracking the astronauts' every move.

As of 4:05 a.m. on Friday, China's third manned spacecraft, Shenzhou 7, has finally entered into the round orbit after completing its orbit maneuvers.

Meanwhile, on the ground, the Beijing Aerospace Control Center is closely monitoring and guiding not just the spacecraft, but also the lunar probe that was launched last year to orbit the moon.

Li Yili, Expert China Space Technology Research Institute, said, "The successful orbit maneuver means that the astronaut can get out of the cabin as planned. We're choosing a track that is best controlled by the center, so that every move of the astronaut can be monitored."
