Looks like 3 will take the ride.  Wearing suits that "look like" Orlan
knockoffs but the chinese vehemently deny, and are all newly designed
by Chinese specs.  Also looks like gear for spacewalk including a
EVA man-launched sat. will be contained in the nose of the orbital
module.  This comes from video of 0-g water training at a Chinese
facility. (the article further states the Chinese training pool  is
round and contains a mockup of the spacecraft)............Doc

Did you ever see those cutaway Shenzhou drawings they put during the
last flight that included all the vital dimensions of the sleeve that
went over the astronaut's penises to allow them to urinate into the
waste-disposal system?
That was one of the oddest things I've ever seen. :-D
