Shenzhou-20 Crew Ready for Third Spacewalk | China Space Station
The Shenzhou-20 crew members aboard the Tiangong space station will conduct a third round of extravehicular activities within the next few days, the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) announced on Aug 14, 2025.
Since the completion of their second spacewalk on June 26, the three astronauts—Chen Dong, Chen Zhongrui and Wang Jie—have performed a wide range of tasks, including monitoring the station's environment, conducting equipment inspections and maintenance, and managing inventory and transfers.
The CMSA said that the crew members have made steady progress in experiments in the fields, such as space life sciences and human research, microgravity physics, and new space technology.
The space station complex is operating smoothly, and the three crew members are all in good health and fully prepared for the upcoming extravehicular activities, according to the agency.
China launched the Shenzhou-20 crewed spacecraft on April 24, 2025, sending three astronauts to its orbiting space station for a six-month mission.
