In Space-Shenzhou-20 Crew/Missions
In Space - Recent (CCTV - No access Chinese mainland)
1. Various of Chinese astronauts working, exercising, conducting medical rescue training, dining in space station
Since entering China's Tiangong space station on April 25, the three astronauts aboard Shenzhou-20 -- Chen Dong, Chen Zhongrui, and Wang Jie -- have quickly adapted to life in microgravity and conducted various tasks smoothly in their "space business trip".
During the in-orbit crew transition, the Shenzhou-19 and Shenzhou-20 teams conducted a comprehensive handover, including the flight system configurations, updates on onboard supplies, and the handoff of ongoing operations.
The new crew assisted in organizing and packing outgoing items, and after Shenzhou-19's departure, they reset equipment and reorganized materials across various station modules.
In a major task, the crew recently installed a debris shield on the radial hatch of the core module's node cabin. This upgrade helps protect the hatch from impacts by tiny space debris.
Similar shields on the forward and aft hatches had already been installed earlier.
The crew has also carried out checks and maintenance on a range of critical systems, including the regenerative life support unit, the water dispenser, and the space treadmill.
In terms of space station management, they have cleaned the cabin and organized supplies sent from Earth.
In a notable first, the crew conducted an in-orbit medical rescue training session. The exercise helped them understand how emergency care differs in microgravity, including how to apply force in weightless conditions.
They have also undergone a series of health checks, including hearing tests, ultrasounds, and electrocardiogram monitoring and blood pressure monitoring, while keeping up with regular physical exercises to counteract the effects of weightlessness.
After more than two weeks in orbit, the Shenzhou-20 crew remains in good spirit and health, with mission tasks progressing smoothly.
