Hey space fans! The Shenzhou-20 astronauts Chen Dong, Chen Zhongrui and Wang Jie just wrapped up their fourth spacewalk outside the China Space Station early Friday. 🛰️
Floating about 400 km above Earth, they spent 6 hours powering through tasks like installing external sensors, testing the station’s robotic arm, and conducting maintenance – all with real-time support from the ground control team. 🤖
This mission highlights the Chinese mainland’s growing prowess in human spaceflight. Since ascending to orbit, the crew has tackled:
- Solar panel upgrades for extra energy ⚡
- Setup of science platforms for microgravity experiments 🧪
- Safety drills to prep for future lunar missions 🚀
Each spacewalk pushes boundaries and brings us closer to exploring the Moon and Mars. For all you tech-savvy dreamers in South and Southeast Asia, the sky is no longer the limit – it’s just the beginning. 🌌
Stay tuned for more cosmic updates, and keep reaching for the stars! ✨
