@@LONDON, Oct. 15 (Xinhuanet) -- The successful launch of the Shenzhou V manned spacecraft has put China at the world's scientific and technological forefront, the local British media said on Wednesday.

@@The milestone flight, which has made China the third country inthe world to send a man into the space, will give a great impetus to China's scientific and technological development, said Singtao Daily, a local newspaper in Chinese, in its editorial on Wednesday."Chinese all over the world wish a good luck to the full flight," it said.

@@"The launch is extremely important for China and will propel them to the forefront of scientific and technological advances," said Peter Bond, a space science advisor to the Royal Astronomical Society in London in an interview with The Independent newspaper.

@@The flight's impact will be far deeper than mere pride, the Financial Times newspaper commented. China's growing reputation as a reliable and low-price launcher of commercial satellites will be reinforced by the successful manned flight, Bates Gill, of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, was quoted as saying.

@@BBC reported that the European Space Agency has joined forces with China for a space science mission, Double Star, which will study the effects of the Sun on the Earth. Enditem
