Shenzhou 1 was the first uncrewed test flight of the Shenzhou spacecraft and the Long March 2F rocket, launched on 19 November 1999. The spacecraft lacked a life-support system but included an emergency escape system. After 14 orbits, the command to begin reentry was sent by the Yuan Wang 3 off the coast of Namibia at 18:49 UTC. The capsule landed successfully in the Dorbod Banner landing area, about 415 kilometres (258 mi) east of the launch site and 110 kilometres (68 mi) north-west of Wuhai, Inner Mongolia.
