Scientific endeavors aboard China's space station are expected to bear fruits, as the SZ-14 taikonauts have devoted more time to microgravity experiments on the orbiting core module Tianhe since entering it a month ago. The crew has conducted microbial tests in water, air and surface samples, aiming to ensure that they can stay safe and comfortable during the six-month spaceflight. They also installed a device for carbon dioxide reduction and regeneration in their orbiting home. In the latest update, the trio was seen undergoing an eye examination and medical aid training. Also, the SZ-14 taikonauts will deliver a livestream science lecture at China's space station lab module Wentian, which is scheduled to be launched this month.
