China spacecraft orbit corrected
Astronauts on China's Shenzhou VI
spacecraft have adjusted its trajectory
after it started moving too close to
the Earth, state media has said.
The operation, carried out late on
Thursday, took just a few seconds, the
official Xinhua news agency said.
The agency described the tweak, during
the craft's 30th orbit of the Earth, as
a "normal technical operation".
Xinhua said the craft had deviated from
its planned trajectory because of the
Earth's gravitational pull.
