Shenzhou-18 has been prepared by astronauts
Preface. China's space industry has always been the focus of national attention, and the space mission of the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft is even more highly anticipated. At this high-profile moment, astronaut Wang Yaping's participation in the mission has sparked widespread speculation and discussion. This article will start from the experience of astronaut Wang Yaping, the possibility of his participation in the Shenzhou-18 space mission, and at the same time reveal the main updates of the Shenzhou-18 spacecraft. We will take a deep dive into this high-profile aerospace topic.
Wang Yaping's spatial experience.
As China's first female astronaut to go out of the capsule, Wang Yaping has rich experience in space flight. From her first mission in 2013 to living and working on the Chinese space station for six months in 2021, she has successfully completed the Shenzhou 10 and Shenzhou 13 spacecraft missions, demonstrating extraordinary professional ability and courageous spirit of responsibility. However, whether Wang Yaping will participate in the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft mission has attracted much attention and speculation.
1) Wang Yaping or not to carry out the Shenzhou 18 mission?
With the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft on hold, Wang Yaping's decision to return home on Chinese New Year's Eve seems to indicate that he may not have a chance in this mission. As a representative of China's manned spaceflight, Wang Yaping's every move has attracted much attention. Although he participated in the recording of the Shandong Spring Festival Gala, he was not in the training team of the Shenzhou 18 mission. Whether astronauts participate in mission training is often an important basis for the outside world to judge whether they can complete the mission. Astronauts need to spend a lot of time training on missions, so Wang Yaping's decision to go home on Chinese New Year's Eve may mean that he did not participate in the training of the Shenzhou 18 mission.
ii) Countdown to the Shenzhou-18 mission.
The Shenzhou-18 spacecraft is the first manned spacecraft to go to China's space station this year, and it has attracted much attention. Although the launch time has not yet been announced, from"Shenzhou XVII"The return time can be inferred"Shenzhou 18"The launch time. Expected"Shenzhou 18"It will be launched around April, adding another magnificent chapter to China's space industry. The departure date of the Shenzhou manned spacecraft will be announced before the astronaut crew list, so that the world is full of anticipation for this historic space flight.
A major update for Shenzhou 18.
Compared to previous manned spacecraft, the Shenzhou-18 spacecraft has undergone major technological upgrades. One of the most notable upgrades is the adoption of high-capacity lithium-ion batteries for batteries, ending the long-term use of large-capacity nickel-cadmium batteries. Not only have these batteries improved significantly in terms of durability and performance, but they are also better able to cope with the challenges that may be faced in space station missions. From a technical point of view,"Shenzhou-18"The modernization of spacecraft has injected new impetus and vitality into the development of China's space industry.
Conclusion. The launch of the Shenzhou-18 spacecraft is imminent, and the list of astronauts has been quietly determined. The jury is still out on whether Wang Yaping will be able to participate in this mission, but his glorious history in space exploration has been deeply imprinted in the history of China's space industry. Regardless of whether you participate or not"Shenzhou 18"mission, Wang Yaping will continue to write the legend of China's aerospace in his own way. We look forward to the vigorous development of China's aerospace industry and contribute to China's aerospace industry. May China's aerospace industry become stronger and sail towards a more brilliant future!
