Shenzhou-20 crew set for second extravehicular activities

The Shenzhou-20 crew members on board China's space station will conduct their second extravehicular activities in the next few days, the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) announced on June 25.

Since completing their first spacewalk on May 22, the crew has undertaken a series of tasks, including monitoring the station's environment, conducting inspections and maintenance of the space station's equipment, and managing inventory and transfers.

The CMSA noted that the crew has made steady progress in experiments in fields such as space life sciences and human research, microgravity physics, and new space technology.

It also confirmed that after two months in orbit, the three crew members are in good health and the space station is operating smoothly, fully prepared for the upcoming spacewalk.
