Setting up a living environment is the first task for the SZ-14 crew when they arrived on 5 June at the space station, which had been left in an uninhabited state after the departure of the Shenzhou 13 crew in April.
The priority of the SZ-14 crew is to activate the essential systems for human living, such as oxygen recycling, drinking water and the sleeping environment, according to Wang Saijin, Deputy Chief designer of the Beijing Aerospace Control Centre. The taikonauts have checked the functionality of the "appliances" in the kitchen, such as the microwave oven, water heater and garbage disposal equipment.
