After 175 days in orbit at the China Space Station, the Shenzhou-19 crew has smashed records and sparked inspiration worldwide! 🚀
The dynamic team—Cai Xuzhe, Song Lingdong, and Wang Haoze—completed three impressive spacewalks along with six in-and-out payload transfer tasks. Their standout moment? A groundbreaking 9-hour spacewalk that set a new world record for the longest single spacewalk.
Cai now proudly claims five spacewalks, marking him as the Chinese astronaut with the most extravehicular activities. Meanwhile, Song became the first Chinese astronaut born in the 1990s to venture outside the spacecraft, and Wang made history as the first female aerospace flight engineer on the space station.
Even when a payload adapter got unexpectedly stuck during a cargo installation, the crew's quick resolution during their first spacewalk ensured that the mission continued smoothly. Their resilience and teamwork resonate with tech enthusiasts and young innovators across South and Southeast Asia, reminding us that no goal is too lofty when we dare to explore the unknown. 🌌
Stay tuned as we follow more thrilling updates in space exploration, inspiring a future where dreams and technology soar beyond the stars!
