A Chinese satellite has accidentally landed on a house in the southwestern province of Sichuan on return to earth. The roof of the house was destroyed but the Chinese media report no-one was injured.

Remarkably, the capsule was not damaged. It had been in space for a total of eighteen days for scientific research.

Chinese space experts, not perturbed by the incident, say that their landing technology is among the best in the world.
