On the subject of next week’s launch of China’s first manned space mission:
The popular sina.com website reported that handguns, knives and other “defensive weapons” would be stored in the capsule.
On landing, the astronaut “will be able to deal with wild beasts, sharks and other dangerous animals or enemies”, the website reported.
The Chinese Government emphasised on Friday that the space mission was a purely peaceful exercise.
