Have a look at what the materials samples outside the cabin look like? TianGong TV takes you for a sneak peek! Recently, the Shenzhou-17 astronauts and ground research personnel closely collaborated to successfully retrieve the first batch of exposed experimental material samples from outside the cabin. A total of 407 pieces of exposed materials have been disassembled and stored by the astronauts, and will be returned to Earth along with the Shenzhou spacecraft for handover to scientists to further carry out ground research work.
