“BanXing2“ (ВХ-2) Satellite Photos of Shenzhou-11-Tiangong-2 Complex

An accompanying satellite that was released from Tiangong-2 space lab on Sunday sent back over 300 photos of the spacecraft-and-space-lab complex. “This picture was an infrared image of the complex captured by the accompanying satellite shortly after it was launched from the complex. It was about 29 meters away from the complex. You can see the upper part is Tiangong-2 and the lower part is Shenzhou-11 spacecraft,“ said Lyu Congmin, deputy chief designer of China’s manned spaceflight project.
