 Senior Colonel Deng Qingming, 56, said that he never lost sight of his"space dream" while waiting, training and preparing for almost a quarter of a century to take part in a space mission.

 Speaking with Chinese reporters at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China's Gobi Desert, Deng, the last serving member of China's first group of astronauts to take part in a spaceflight, said that he never doubted his choice or considered quitting.

 Deng said that he had"quietly prepared" throughout his life for an opportunity to take part in a mission, adding,"I didn't allow myself to be unprepared in case that, one day, I would be called up.

 "When I was told that I had been chosen for the Shenzhou XV mission, I was pretty calm. What I was thinking about at that time was that I must cherish this opportunity and train harder to honor their trust and my commitment."

 Deng said his gratitude goes to a lot of people, especially the scientists, engineers and other workers in China's space industry, because it had been those people who worked hard to send astronauts like him to space.
