Shenzhou-18 crew gears up for entry of Shenzhou-19 members into Tiangong

The Shenzhou-18 mission crew has carried out their work in an orderly manner this week in preparation for the handover with the Shenzhou-19 members at China's Tiangong space station later this month.

On April 25 this year, China launched the Shenzhou-18 manned spacecraft, sending three astronauts into the space station for a six-month mission, and the three astronauts are expected to return to Earth later this month.

Over the past week, the Shenzhou-18 crew carried out the rendezvous and docking operation training as planned, using the remote-operated rendezvous and docking in-orbit training system to conduct operational skills training such as image recognition, manual docking, and manual evacuation under different initial conditions.

In terms of the study of astronauts' behavioral capabilities, the crew recorded their mental workload measurements and fatigue levels after the in-orbit training of rendezvous and docking, which will help ground scientific researchers explore the characteristics and patterns of changes in astronauts' flight mission operational skills.

The mission crew carried out a series of microgravity-based experiments in the high-temperature material experimental cabinet in the Mengtian lab module, which are of great significance for understanding the inherent laws of material physics and chemical processes, enriching and improving the basic theories of material science, guiding and promoting the preparation process and production of basic materials, improving material performance, and promoting the development of related ground-based material industries.

The mission crew also conducted personal noise exposure dose measurement, acoustic environment monitoring, air cleanliness testing, and wind speed and temperature measurements.

The mission crew also examined their cardiopulmonary functions, hearing capabilities, bone densities, and masses, and used neuromuscular stimulators, acupoint stimulation suits, bone loss countermeasures and other equipment for weightlessness protection to maintain their health during their long-term stay in orbit.

In addition, the crew also completed daily tasks including cabin equipment inspection and maintenance and carefully maintaining the space vegetable garden.
