So I have been thinking about this question as someone who was in touch w/ the Chinese HSF program for a decade+, given it has been a big PRC promotion tool here. My opinion: the PRC's simply bad in covering their HSF program, especially in recent years.https://twitter.com/CasTweetsThings/status/1388672206217957378 …

Also after checking records elsewhere & my memory, I can confirm that their HSF program coverage just isn't that much even in Soviet terms: * Shenzhou 5 (2003) - text coverage only (which is OK, that flight had some close calls after all)

* Shenzhou 6 (2005) - almost zero insight in what the crew did in orbit, till this day * Shenzhou 7 (2008) - good coverage of the 20 min EVA, which is roughly what the crew did * Shenzhou 9 (2012) - good coverage along w/ the robotic SZ-8 in 2011, no daily updates though

* Shenzhou 10 (2013) - much worse coverage than SZ-9, few updates in orbit (I believe the undocking time is still not known today; only major update is the teaching session) * Shenzhou 11 (2016) - Not too much attention given for a 30 days flight IIRC, overshadowed by 1st LM-5

To be honest seeing their very inconsistent coverage for their flagship programs lately (Chang'e 4/5, Tianwen 1 & CSS) I doubt this will change soon. Especially when today's unlike the Soviet Salyut or early Mir days where TASS &
@AviationWeek are essentially the way for updates.Diesen Thread anzeigen -
I feel pity for those who are trying to record everything happening on the CSS like they do for ISS, because I can't see the Chinese doing one-stop daily/weekly updates. Even if they do update, they are likely scattered around various Chinese social media which are hard to use.
