When will ordinary people be able to enter the space station? Nie Haisheng: If you have a dream, you can prepare early

The Shenzhou XII crew is here to meet you again!

On December 7, the Shenzhou XII crew met with the media and the public for the first time after returning to Earth.

At the meeting, the three astronauts Nie Haisheng, Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo looked energetic and in good condition.

After the crew returns from the flight normally, the recovery period is mainly divided into three stages: isolation recovery stage, convalescent recovery stage, and recovery observation stage. So far, the Shenzhou XII crew has completed the second stage of work. Next, it has fully entered the recovery observation stage.

What precious memories did the space trip leave behind? What are your plans for the future? Jingshejun had a conversation with the three astronauts and brought back a large number of beautiful space photos taken by the astronauts. Come and have a look.

Q: When will ordinary people be able to enter the Chinese space station? What preparations are needed?

Nie Haisheng: With the rapid development of my country's space industry, I believe that the day when ordinary people can enter the Chinese space station will not be too far away. Entering space has certain tests and requirements on people's physical and mental abilities. If you have a dream of flying, you can prepare early.

Q: What are you looking forward to in the new year?

Nie Haisheng: In the new year, I still want to make more preparations for subsequent missions. The Chinese space station is about to usher in the construction of a new module. In the future, there is still a lot of work to be done in the use of robotic arms and the formulation of emergency plans. This requires astronauts to constantly update their knowledge, keep learning, and continue to grow their skills.

Q: Is sleeping in the space station different from sleeping on Earth?

Liu Boming: Sleeping in the space station is slightly different. Due to gravity, I am used to sleeping "tied", Nie Haisheng "floating", and Tang Hongbo "half and half" (laughs). I sleep about 8 hours a day, and before going to bed I will spend 20 to 30 minutes listening to music and taking notes. Only when you get enough sleep can you work smoothly.

Q: Did you bring any gifts for your family when you came back from space?

Liu Boming: Before returning to Earth, I recorded a thank-you video for my wife and my 80-year-old father-in-law and mother-in-law, and sincerely thanked them for their support over the years. During my stay in space, they came to the command hall every weekend, rain or shine, to video chat with me, caring about me and alleviating my loneliness.

Q: As one of the first astronauts to use the Chinese space station, how do you evaluate this "home" and what are your feelings about it?

Tang Hongbo: After entering the space station, my first impression was that it was very large and had a sense of depth; the second impression was that the sleeping area was very quiet and the noise was very low; the third impression was that this was a "view room". When I rested, I couldn't wait to pick up my phone and take pictures of the moving scene outside the window. The most important feeling was that this is our country's space science experimental platform. The experimental opportunity is rare, and the operation experience is precious, which makes people feel both interesting and proud.

Q: Did you bring back any special little items from the space station?

Tang Hongbo: When I was leaving the space station, I was reluctant to leave, so I took the mission mark on a set of clothes that had accompanied me for three months back with me as a souvenir. Now I have given it to my son.

Next, after the recovery of the health assessment, the three astronauts will return to normal training.

I wish them a smooth recovery and look forward to their continued success!
