Shenzhou XIII, 3 astronaut crews have also been determined, they are astronauts Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping, Ye Guangfu, they will become the second batch of residents of China's space station, is expected to perform a task of up to 6 months or so on our space station, congratulations!
Among them, female astronaut Wang Yaping will become the first female astronaut in the stage of China's space station, and may also be the first female astronaut in China to carry out the capsule.
Although women are not inferior to men, but the physiological structure of the two is different after all, so female astronauts stay on China's space station for 6 months, how to solve physiological problems?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="4" > physiological period? </h1>
Although Wang Yaping is about to become China's first female astronaut to be in orbit for up to 6 months, in foreign countries, there have been a number of female astronauts in space for a long time, such as NASA astronaut Christina Koch has lived on the International Space Station for 328 days.
We know that on short-term space missions, female astronauts can adjust the physiological cycle through short-term contraceptives, so how do female astronauts solve the problem of menstrual period after living in space for such a long time?
In fact, in the early stages of the development of manned spaceflight, some experts expressed concern about the physiological period of female astronauts, mainly because space is in a weightless environment, unlike earth, water will flow down and may float around.
Therefore, experts are worried that if the "big aunt" is in a weightless environment, the big aunt will not be able to reverse the flow, such as: flow to the abdominal cavity. Once this happens, the consequences can be very serious, and what is more serious is that there is no modern medical measures in space, and it is difficult for astronauts to cope with sudden diseases.
Although the experts have such worries, the reality is unexpected, it turns out that in the weightless environment, the "big aunt" does not float around. This is mainly due to the fact that the "big aunt" is mainly endometrial shedding, and the shedding lining relies on uterine contractions to excrete the body, so even in the microgravity environment, the "big aunt" can be smoothly excreted.
In addition, in the space environment, female astronauts can also use sanitary napkins and tampons to deal with, no different from on Earth.
The only troublesome thing is that because the astronaut's urine will be recycled, and some recycling devices do not have the ability to process blood, which means that during the "big aunt", female astronauts may not be able to use the toilet, but to use diapers, etc., but do not know whether our space station urine recovery device has the ability to process blood, if there is, female astronauts do not have to use diapers so hard.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="12" > female astronauts can have children? </h1>
There has always been a rumor that female astronauts are forbidden to have children after they have completed a space mission.
In fact, this rumor has been debunked, and although the space environment is more dangerous than Earth, we have not banned female astronauts from having children. Even China's two female astronauts, Liu Yang and Wang Yaping, are the offspring born after the completion of the space mission, such as: Wang Yaping this time to carry out the space station mission, and the 5-year-old daughter agreed to pick stars for her daughter. What should be known is that female astronaut Wang Yaping once carried out the Shenzhou 10 mission in 2013, which means that she became pregnant about two years after the mission.
But we know that there is no ozone layer in the space environment to isolate ultraviolet rays, and there is no geomagnetic field to resist the solar wind, which leads to a lot higher radiation here than in the Earth's environment.
First of all, we must say that although the space environment is more dangerous, our astronauts are not directly exposed to the space environment, but have the protection of spacecraft or space stations, and during the out-of-the-cabin activities, astronauts must wear extravehicular spacesuits. These capsules can isolate some of the radiation and protect the safety of astronauts.
Secondly, China's space station is located in the orbit of 400 kilometers of the earth, relatively close to the earth, although there is no protection of the ozone layer, but still protected by part of the geomagnetic field.
More importantly, although living in space will have some impact on the health of astronauts and the quality of sperm and eggs will change, this is not irreversible, and it will return to normal after returning to Earth for a period of time.
Considering the possible impact on the next generation, after the astronaut returns to The Earth, he will generally be ready to give birth after a period of conditioning, and the offspring born are also very healthy, no different from ordinary children.
The reason why countries are more inclined to choose married and fertile female astronauts is not because of concerns about the health of female astronauts to produce offspring, but because astronauts are either selected from experienced female pilots or scientists who have made achievements in their own fields, which requires them to be good enough in their respective fields, so they are generally older, and many are married and have children.
Secondly, because married and childbearing female astronauts are more mature and experienced, and can better perform heavy and stressful space missions.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="22" > summary</h1>
In the vastness of space, you will not change its environment because you are a woman, nor will you lower its threshold because of the arrival of women. Wang Yaping said.
Although the space environment is harsh, but female astronauts are not afraid of challenges, now china has two female astronauts soaring in space, the future may have more women to participate in the space industry.
Finally, I wish the launch of Shenzhou 13 smoothly and wish our country's space industry better and better!
