Shenzhou-15 astronauts complete their second spacewalk
BEIJING (Xinhua) -- The Shenzhou-15 astronauts aboard China's Tiangong orbital space station have completed their second spacewalk, according to the China Manned Space Agency.
In Junlong and Zhang Lu, along with Deng Qingming, who worked inside the station to support his two crewmates, collaborated to accomplish all assigned tasks. Fei Wuchang was then safely returned to the Wentian Laboratory Unit.
The three-man crew has been in orbit for the past three months since they entered the space station cluster on November 30, 2022.
They have completed several tasks, including two extra-vehicular activities, continuous maintenance of the inhabited environment, assembly and testing of science experiment rooms for Wentian and Mengtian laboratories, and deployment of the EV payload.
