Chinese astronauts return to Earth after six-month mission www.bbc.com

Three Chinese astronauts have returned to Earth after completing a six-month mission aboard China's space station.
They left for space on 5 June to oversee the final construction stage of the Tiangong space station, which was completed in November.
The crew touched down on board the Shenzhou-14 spacecraft on Sunday in China's autonomous region of Inner Mongolia.
China's space agency declared the mission a "complete success".
Commander Chen Dong and teammates Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe said they were feeling well after landing, in audio aired by state broadcaster CCTV.
Staff at the landing site carried the crew out of the exit capsule, which landed shortly after 20:00 local time, about nine hours after undocking from the space station.
Ms Yang, China's first female astronaut, said she had an unforgettable memory in the space station and "is excited to return to the motherland," Xinhua state news agency reported.
While in space, the three astronauts oversaw the arrival of the second and third modules for Tiangong and carried out three spacewalks to check and test the new facilities.
Liu Yang, who took part in the mission, is China's first female astronaut
A new crew of three Chinese astronauts arrived at the space station to make its first in-orbit crew handover on Wednesday.
The new crew lifted off in the Shenzhou-15 spacecraft from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in the Gobi Desert in north-west China.
They will live on the station for six months. It will be the second permanently inhabited space outpost, after the Nasa-led International Space Station from which China was excluded in 2011.
It is the last of 11 missions required to assemble the station that is expected to operate for around a decade and run experiments in near-zero gravity.
The new crew will focus on installing equipment and facilities around the space station, a spokesperson for the China Manned Space Administration said.
China is only the third country in history to have put both astronauts into space and to build a space station, after the Soviet Union and the US.
Tiangong space station, or "Heavenly Palace", is China's new permanent space station. The country has previously launched two temporary trial space stations, named as Tiangong-1 and Tiangong-2.
Over the next decade of the Tiangong's operation, it is expected China will launch two crewed missions to the station each year.
China has opened the selection process for astronauts for future missions to applicants from the "special administrative regions" of Macau and Hong Kong, who have previously been excluded.
China put its first satellite into orbit in 1970 - as it went through massive disruptions caused by the Cultural Revolution.
In the past 10 years, China has launched more than 200 rockets.
It has already sent an unmanned mission to the Moon, called Chang'e 5, to collect and return rock samples. It planted a Chinese flag on the lunar surface - which was deliberately bigger than previous US flags.

New VU-UBMK partnership expands international opportunities for students in Mongolia www.vinu.edu

VINCENNES, Ind. - Vincennes University and the UBMK School have signed a memorandum of understanding that will create new educational and transformative opportunities for UBMK students in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
UBMK was established in 1998 by the Korean missionary association in Mongolia. It is the only K-12 Korean International school approved by the Ministry of Education and Science of Mongolia. After graduating from UBMK, students can continue their education at an American university or Korean university.
According to the UBMK Director of International Affairs Dr. Elin Jung, “Our students will have the opportunity to apply their learning in more settings, amongst more people in the future. They will not be constrained to Mongolia or Korea. Our students now have the chance to achieve their dreams, thanks to Vincennes University. With the provision of the MOU from Vincennes University, they can study in the United States. It is an attractive and encouraging path for both parents and students.”
According to VU President Dr. Chuck Johnson, “The new agreement with UBMK represents a great addition to VU's existing international partnerships, and we look forward to building a lasting relationship that will benefit generations of UBMK students.”
With the goal of nurturing global talents who can love their country and serve in the international community based on upright character, faith, Korean identity cultivation education, and exclusive STEM education, the UBMK School provides specialized foreign language education with required English and Mongolian language education, customized career guidance, and domestic and overseas vision trips during the school year.
UBMK students have strong aspirations of studying abroad, and Jung believes that VU will offer them a great opportunity because of the investment VU makes in its students.
VU has transfer agreements with many learning universities, including Purdue and IU in Indiana, that will allow UBMK students the opportunity to transition smoothly from VU.
Jung and Esther Yoon, UBMK US School Representative,
tour the Additive Manufacturing and Reverse Engineering
Center with Interim Admissions Director Sarah McLin
During Jung’s visit to the Vincennes Campus in mid-November, she was enthusiastic about the University’s exceptional programs, facilities, and resources.
“The staff and faculty’s warmth, humility, and hospitality were delightful,” she said. “The Vincennes University department of mechanical engineering, anatomy lab, nursing class, and homeland security class and building were all engrossing and supremely informative. It was impressive to observe, learn, and simply experience our time at Vincennes.”
VU continues to build international partnerships that support enrollment and create access and opportunities for students no matter where they live.
Emerging from the pandemic, VU has seen an increase in international enrollment. As travel restrictions have been lifted or relaxed, there are more opportunities for international students to enroll at VU. Many students are studying on the Vincennes Campus, while others are getting a jump start on their education by enrolling in VU's new international online cohort program, launched during the pandemic. The online cohort program currently enrolls students from China, Korea, and India, and provides an accessible and affordable pathway to attending VU.
Through a combination of initiatives and despite the impact of the pandemic, the University has doubled international enrollments since 2016. The uptick is helping to further diversity in the student population and is exposing VU students to more global cultures and experiences. More than 22 countries are represented at VU this fall, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, France, Greece, India, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Kenya, Netherlands, Spain, South Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam.
