"... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Ignite! Go! "On October 15, 2003, China launched its first manned spacecraft into orbit from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in Northwest China's Gansu Province.
Spraying a mass of orange flames, the large, white Long March II-F rocket carrying the Shenzhou-V spacecraft and China's first astronaut Yang Liwei soared spectacularly skyward, gradually becoming a bright ball before vanishing into deep space.
As the world's largest developing country, China is more than proud of making its own contribution to human beings' outer space exploration. Meantime, it will turn out to be an important driving force for the country's economic and social development. The successful launch of Shenzhou-V ushered in a new chapter in space history.
“5，4，3，2，1。点火!发射!”2003年10月15日，中国在其西北部的甘肃省酒泉卫星发射中心首次发射了载人宇宙飞船，进入了轨道。
喷射出一团橘黄色的火焰后， 巨大白色的长征n-F火箭运载神州5号宇宙飞船和中国第一个宇宙飞行员杨利伟腾空而起，蔚为壮观，慢慢地变成一个亮球消失在茫茫的太空中。
作为世界上最大的发展中国家，中国为其对人类的空间探索作出自己的贡献感到非常骄傲。同时，这一事件将证明对中国的经济和社会发展起到重要的推动作用。神州5号宇宙飞船的发射成功揭开了太空历史的新篇章。
We will never forget the day when China launched its first manned spacecraft into orbit on October 15, 2003 from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in Northwest China's Gansu Province.
Spraying a mass of orange flames, the large, white Long March II-F rocket carrying the Shenzhou-V spacecraft and China's first astronaut Yang Liwei soared spectacularly skyward, gradually becoming a bright ball before vanishing into deep space.
Our dream becomes reality. Though the Shenzhou-V circled the Earth 14 times within 22 hours and 18 minutes, it has clearly displayed China's spirts of devotion, co-operation and pursuit of the unknown. Meantime, it will turn out to be an important driving force for the country's economic and social development. The successful launch of Shenzhou-V ushered in a new chapter in space history.
我们永远也不会忘记2003年10月15日。中国在其西北部的甘肃省酒泉卫星发射中心首次发射了载人宇宙飞船，进入了轨道。
喷射出一团橘黄色的火焰后，白色的长征n-F火箭运载神州5号宇宙飞船和中国第一个宇宙飞行员杨利伟腾空而起，蔚为壮观，慢慢地变成一个亮球消失在茫茫的太空中。
尽管神州5号在22小时18分钟内仅仅绕地球转14圈，但它清楚的体现了中国的奉献、合作和探索未知的精神。同时这一事件将证明对中国的经济和社会发展起到重要的推动作用。神州5号宇宙飞船的发射成功揭开了太空历史的新篇章。
