JIUQUAN, Oct. 30 (Xinhua) -- The Shenzhou-21 crew will carry out in-orbit scientific experiments involving mice during their stay on the space station, according to the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) on Thursday.
Four mice -- two males and two females -- will be transported to China's space station aboard the Shenzhou-21 spaceship and raised in orbit, said the CMSA spokesperson Zhang Jingbo at a press conference held one day prior to the launch of the Shenzhou-21 mission. ■
