The Shenzhou-8 spacecraft blasted off at 5:58am local time from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the Gobi desert, northwestern China, carried by an upgraded Long March-2F rocket, the official Xinhua news agency said.
Some witnesses early tuesday morning ,as the space craft was leaving earth surface at Gobi dessert.
It is due to rendezvous with Tiangong-1, or the "Heavenly Palace-1" module, which was sent to space Sept. 29, in what would be China's first space docking.
The docking, due to take place within two days, will happen 213 miles (343 kilometers) above Earth's surface. If successful, it will put China one step closer to its plans to operate a permanent space station by 2020.
