China: Two Chinese astronauts perform their first spacewalk outside China’s new orbital station to prepare a 15-meter long robotic arm. The robotic arm is known to be used to assemble the rest of the station.
The two astronauts are Liu Boming and Tang Hongbo.
It is known, China launched 3 astronauts to the space station last June. The three astronauts will carry out a three-month mission on China’s new Space Station.
The launch of the three astronauts will be China’s first manned mission in nearly five years. AFP Photo/CCTV/China OUT
