The Shenzhou Ⅷ mission crew’s six-month journey in space has left many talks about the differences between male and female astronauts. 

Wang Yaping, a 41-year-old female astronaut from Shandong province in East China, became the first Chinese woman to enter China’s space station. 

“Spaceflight missions（任务） are extremely hard. Astronauts need to meet both the physical and emotional challenges. so female astronauts are no exception.” said Pang Zhihao, a spaceflight researcher in Beijing . “Although many people think that it is inconvenient for women to take part in long-term spaceflights, female astronauts actually have many advantages. They are usually more thoughtful and careful, and better at communicating.”

Wang’s space dream started in 2003. when China sent its first astronaut Yang Liwei into space. At that time, she was a pilot in the Chinese army. After having safe flights for 1, 600 hours over nine years, Wang was a strong candidate（候选人） to become an astronaut in 2010. She pushed herself hard, getting the same training as men. The hardest part is the high-G training. Sitting in a spinning（旋转的） machine, Wang would become blind for a while because her brain was short of blood. “There’s a red button,” said Wang. “If you can’t bear it, you can press it to stop. ” But Wang never used it. “There is no such red button in my heart. ” That strong spirit finally made her dream come true in 2013. She joined the team for the Shenzhou X mission. Then, she was chosen for the Shenzhou Ⅷ mission in December 2019. 

Retired NASA astronaut Catherine Coleman sent a greeting to Wang before the Shenzhou XIII trip. Coleman said, “When you look out the window and see the stars and the Earth, billions of women will be looking out that window with you.” Wang carries the spirit of every young woman who dreams of something big.
