Hong Kong’s astronaut to gather data using observatory created by local teams
Hong Kong's first astronaut, Lai Ka-ying, will operate a newly developed Multi-Spectral Imaging Carbon Observatory aboard the Tiangong space station. This observatory is designed to precisely measure greenhouse gas emissions from Earth, offering data that could aid in reducing carbon sources in mainland China and the Greater Bay Area. The mission, part of the Shenzhou-23 crew, is expected to last one month. AI
