The two Chinese astronauts on the Tiangong-2 space lab started their routine work and exercise programs on Thursday, the day after they entered the orbital module.
Jing Haipeng and Chen Dong got up at 06:30 in the morning. Their first task was to plant lettuce seeds so that they can harvest a batch of lettuce before they leave the space lab in 30 days time.
The astronauts are living according to Beijing time, even though they experience day and night every 90 minutes in space.
They will work six days a week according to a schedule that scientists say will help them stay healthy.
"We perfected the schedule of working and sleeping. They now work six days and have one day off. This schedule will give them more freedom to adjust their work flexibly," said Huang Weifen, deputy chief designer of the Manned Spaceship Astronaut System.
At 09:20, Jing and Chen fed their silkworms. Jing brought out the first silkworm and gave it a zero-gravity flight.
The six silkworms will help Chinese scientists study the silkworms' growing process in space, and allow them to compare this with how they grow on Earth.
After feeding the silkworms, Jing and Chen started working out on their specially designed running machine. As they will spend a month in space, proper exercises are important to the astronauts.
At 12:00, Jing had the first go on their new facility. As there is no gravity in space lab, the two had to wear belts to "tie" them onto the running machine.
Jing and Chen had a nap after running before carrying out noise and other physical capacity tests in the afternoon.
