| Shenzhou 9 astronauts test attitude control Posted: 22 Jun 2012 08:33 PM PDT 视频播放位置 下载安装Flash播放器Five days after the successful docking of Shenzhou 9 with Tiangong 1, for the first time, astronauts have manually changed the attitude control for both modules. Liu Wang turned off the control system on Tiangong 1 around noon Friday Beijing time. When Shenzhou-9 took charge of the flight of the joint space modules, Liu Wang tested three different kinds of positioning of the modules.
When they aren't controlling the direction of the mission, the three astronauts are getting used to space life. On Thursday night, they had the chance to talk on the phone with their families. Liu Wang even played harmonica for his wife to celebrate her birthday. But the most active member among the three is Liu Yang, the only female astronaut on the mission. Video footage shows that she often practices somersaults in the lab. According to the center, the three astronauts are getting prepared for the first-time crew-guided docking on Sunday.

| Rio+20 summit ends with agreement Posted: 22 Jun 2012 08:21 PM PDT 视频播放位置 下载安装Flash播放器Global leaders have wrapped up the UN development summit, the Rio+20 summit in Brazil. Its secretary general, Sha Zu-kang, told a news conference that it had made significant progress. Sha Zukang, Secretary General, Rio+20 Summit, said, "So now, let me update you on the numbers. The total figure is now 692 registered commitments. Ladies and gentleman, this brings the estimated total value of commitments to 513 billion US dollars. This is a major achievement." Among all the achievements, the signing of an agreement covering various fields should be the greatest one. Despite the fact that the agreement ranges from energy to food security to oceans was signed, some signatories describe the agreement as lacking commitment, specifics and measurable targets. The agreement calls for the launch of a process to agree sustainable development goals. Compared with the original Earth Summit in 1992, which led to historic decisions on bio-diversity and greenhouse gas emissions, organisers say this week's conference is only the beginning of a new goal-setting process for global development. | ||||||
| Shenzhou 9 astronauts enjoy Chinese food Posted: 22 Jun 2012 08:14 PM PDT 视频播放位置 下载安装Flash播放器To ensure astronauts have the best diet, the Shenzhou 9 spacecraft mission team is providing 70 kinds of Chinese food. So what's on the menu? The three Chinese astronauts in the space module Tiangong 1 are eating tasty and nutritious Chinese food. Astronauts used to only have biscuits or other compressed food during their time in orbit. But this mission's astronauts have brought with them traditional Chinese food, catering to their different tastes. Chen Bin, Engineer, China institute of space medico-engineering: "The staple and non-staple foods fully reflect the characteristics of Chinese foods. One meal usually consists of rice with two fried dishes and soup. Fruits and other instant food are also provided as supplements. We provide them with the same food as they would have on the Earth. That's our main goal." The astronauts checked food in their packages before boarding. Jing Haipeng, Chinese astronaut: "Nutritionists asked us about our preferences. I am from north China's Shanxi Province where people like to eat sour-flavored food. And I like hot food as well. So sour, sweet, hot or even preserved bean curd, all are OK for me." To ensure a varied diet, mission controllers have picked a range of dishes to keep the astronauts well-fed in space. | ||||||
