China's Shenzhou-14 taikonauts, Chen Dong, Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe, returned to Earth safely on Sunday evening after a six-month mission in the country's orbiting space station.

The re-entry capsule carrying the trio touched down at the Dongfeng landing site in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region at 8:09 p.m. Beijing Time after a journey of about nine hours.

China declared the Shenzhou-14 mission a complete success after the medical team waiting on site confirmed that all three taikonauts were in good health.
