The Shenzhou-23 crew aboard China's orbiting space station completed their mission's first series of extravehicular activities on Friday. Taikonauts Zhu Yangzhu and Zhang Zhiyuan worked for about 5.5 hours, installing debris shields and repairing the station's solar panels to ensure a stable power supply. Zhu previously spacewalked three years ago, while Zhang made his first excursion. The trio, including Li Jiaying, launched aboard Shenzhou-23 on May 24 and has since carried out docking drills and emergency response exercises.
