Storyline


The Shenzhou-17 crew on board China's orbiting space station completed their first spacewalk at 21:35 (Beijing Time) on Thursday, according to the China Manned Space Agency.

Tang Hongbo, Tang Shengjie and Jiang Xinlin worked seven-and-a-half hours to complete set tasks including experimental repair on a solar wing of the Tianhe core module, with the assistance of a ground team and the space station's robotic arm.

At 14:10 Thursday, Tang Hongbo, in an extravehicular spacesuit with red marks, opened the airlock hatch and exited the capsule.

He subsequently boarded the robotic arm, walked to a designated point on the core module solar wing where he carried out checks and performed the repair.

In the meantime, Tang Shengjie, in an extravehicular spacesuit with blue marks, climbed on the exterior capsule wall, providing assistance in observation to help Tang Hongbo with the repair.

Jiang Xinlin worked in the core module, primarily responsible for operating the robotic arm.

"The repair work requires a very high level of precision, so it demands high precision in astronauts' operation and proficiency in their use of tools. They also had to confirm the coordination between ground and space, and verify the accuracy of the position. After they completed the operation, they also had to judge whether the repair was up to the expectations. So, this confirmation process involved many additional steps and links," said Wang Yanlei, director of the astronaut selection and training department of the China Astronaut Research and Training Center.

At 21:35 Thursday, Tang Hongbo and Tang Shengjie returned safely to the Wentian lab module.

"This extravehicular activity is extraordinarily significant, and extremely challenging. It is an in-orbit maintenance in its true sense. At that moment, being there, I deeply felt the vastness of the starry sky and the profound meaning of forever infinite space exploration," said Tang Hongbo after the spacewalk.

"Thanks to the help and support of the ground team, my first extravehicular activity was so wonderful. On the path to pursue and realize our dream together, you give us the warmest and most reliable support. We are always with you," said Tang Shengjie after the spacewalk.

It was the second time that Tang Hongbo, China's first space traveler to return to the space station for a second mission after an interval of two years, has performed a spacewalk. Tang Shengjie became the country's youngest astronaut to carry out an extravehicular mission.

"Although it was a mission of experimental repair, we actually did the repair work. It was terrific and the work was done very well. This marks that we have basically mastered the ability for some extravehicular repairs, laying a solid foundation for us to guarantee of the space station's safety and reliability in the future," said Dong Nengli, deputy chief engineer of China Manned Space Agency.

In the future, the Shenzhou-17 crew will carry out more space science experiments, technical tests, spacewalks and the installation of extravehicular payloads as planned.

They have performed many tasks since they entered the orbital complex on Oct 26, including a crew rotation with Shenzhou-16 astronauts, space station platform maintenance, life and health support, extravehicular spacesuit inspections and tests, and Tianzhou-6 cargo ship equipment inspections.

They have also undertaken robotic arm operations training, emergency life-saving drills, medical rescue drills, and full-system pressure emergency drills.
