China's Shenzhou-23 crew marks 60 days in orbit

China's Shenzhou-23 crew celebrated its 60th day aboard the Tiangong space station. The three astronauts – Zhu Yangzhu, Zhang Zhiyuan and Li Jiaying – have been conducting a range of scientific activities.

Key experiments include a study of intestinal‑microbiome changes from long‑duration spaceflight, analysis of nutrient metabolism using a Raman spectrometer, and fine‑motor control tests to probe adaptive learning. The crew also completed docking‑approach and rendezvous training exercises.

The China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) announced a 2026 research‑proposal call covering life‑science and biotechnology, micro‑gravity physics and new space‑technology topics, outlining 23 specific research areas.
