China is gearing up for a busy year in human spaceflight, planning to launch two new crewed missions, Shenzhou 20 and Shenzhou 21, alongside a Tianzhou cargo spacecraft. The Tiangong space station, which has been continuously occupied since its completion in late 2022, will see astronauts conducting various experiments, including those involving an AI robot named Xiao Hang. Additionally, China is set to train astronauts from Pakistan for future missions to Tiangong.
The Shenzhou 19 crew is currently engaged in a range of scientific experiments, utilizing advanced equipment like electroencephalogram (EEG) devices to study the effects of microgravity on human physiology. The astronauts are also exploring multimodal interaction technology with the AI robot Xiao Hang, aiming to improve communication between humans and machines in space. This innovative approach not only enhances the astronauts' capabilities but also contributes valuable data for future long-duration spaceflights.
