On June 28, 2012 at 01:22 UTC the Shenzhou-9 spacecraft with 3 cosmonauts aboard undocked from the Tiangong-1 space station to begin returning to Earth. Liu Wang, one of the cosmonauts, conducted the operation to separate Shenzhou-9 and the orbiting Tiangong-1. He continued manual operations to direct the spacecraft to a safe distance from the lab module. During their stay in Tiangong-1, all experiments and tests were finished as scheduled and produced valuable data.
