Tickets for China's first space documentary filmed in 8K technology by astronauts aboard the country's space station went on sale on Tuesday.
Produced by China Media Group (CMG), the film "Blue Planet outside the Window: A Glimpse of Space in 8K" is scheduled for release on Sept 5. It will also mark the debut of CMG's logo animation in movie theaters.
It was shot by Shenzhou-13 crew members Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping, and Ye Guangfu during their 183-day mission aboard China's space station from Oct 2021 to March 2022, the longest-ever mission by Chinese astronauts yet.
Using 8K, 50fps, full-frame integrated cameras, the Shenzhou-13 crew, in collaboration with the team on Earth, documented their day-to-day life in orbit from the preservative of Wang Yaping, including scientific experiments and the unique view of the Earth from space.
The premiere promises a rare first-person perspective of living and working in space, offering the audience an unprecedented visual experience.

Green and low-carbon products are drawing significant attention from global buyers at the ongoing 139th China Import and Export Fair, also known as the Canton Fair.
The 139th edition of the fair is placing a strong emphasis on "innovation, green development, and intelligence". A total of 1.023 million green products, accounting for 22 percent of the total exhibits, are on display.
During the first phase of the fair from April 15 to 19, a wide range of green and low-carbon products, including new energy vehicles, energy storage batteries, and photovoltaic modules, are showcased.
Many exhibitors have upgraded from offering single products to providing comprehensive solutions for various scenarios, effectively meeting the global demand for energy transition.
"Motorcycle is a very well used way of transport. Particularly today we were surprised to find new technology applied to motorcycle, that is the hybrid. So we think this will be very attractive for our consumers in Uruguay," said Bermúdez del Barrio, a purchaser from Uruguay interested in hybrid motor bikes.
The fair is also hosting a series of new product launches to help make green trade a new driver for foreign trade growth.
The fair opened on Wednesday in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou and will run through May 5, with a record number of more than 32,000 participating enterprises.
Held every spring and autumn in Guangzhou since its founding in 1957, the Canton Fair is seen as a barometer of China's foreign trade.
