China's space agency says it has successfully repaired damage to its space station after it was struck by space debris.
Crew members aboard China’s space station have successfully completed repairs after a debris strike caused a partial power failure at the facility, officials of the China Manned Space Agency revealed at a press conference on Wednesday.
Recommended Videos The crew is set to return to Earth on April 30 after handing over station operations to the incoming Shenzhou-18 crew, state media reported. China’s space station orbits around 280 miles above Earth, about 30 miles above the International Space Station. This places both facilities in near-Earth orbit where most hazardous space junk exists.
Operators of both orbital facilities have systems in place to monitor the larger pieces of junk and if one is deemed to be on course to collide with a station, the facility is moved to a higher or lower orbit to avoid it.
