BEIJING, November 7. /tass/. Cosmonauts of the Chinese orbital station conducted emergency evacuation exercises in case of an unforeseen collision with an object. This was announced on Sunday by the Administration of the Manned Space Flight Program of the People's Republic of China.

As noted on his page on the WeChat social network, the taikonauts worked out the steps to exit the main module of the Tianhe into the return capsule of the Shenzhou-13 manned spacecraft. The main task of the training is to ensure the safety of the crew in case of depressurization of the station.

Earlier, the deputy head of the manned flight program department, Lin Xiqiang, said that China is able to quickly organize an emergency evacuation from the national station in the event of an accident. According to him, small fragments will not harm her. As for large objects, "it will be possible to carry out a maneuver to avoid a blow."

The Chinese station is located at an altitude of about 400 km and will serve for more than 10 years. It is designed for three people (up to six for a short time when the crew changes). The mass of the T-shaped complex, which has three docking nodes and a gateway for entering space, is 66 tons, the volume of compartments reaches 110 cubic meters. It is expected that the orbital object will work in 2022 and, as promised by the Chinese authorities, will be available for international projects.
