On the New Year, the Shenzhou 19 astronaut crew, which was on a "business trip in space", also sent New Year's greetings from the Chinese space station 400 kilometers away from the earth.

Astronaut Cai Xuzhe: The dragon flies for the old year, and the snake dances to welcome the new year. This year is the Year of the Snake, also known as the Year of the Little Dragon. Our Dragon Horse crew wishes everyone on the China Space Station: Happy New Year, good luck in the Year of the Snake, and good luck in Sisi!

This is the fourth time that the Chinese have celebrated the Spring Festival in their "space home" after Shenzhou 13, Shenzhou 15 and Shenzhou 17.

On New Year's Eve, when the space station flew over the motherland, the astronauts freeze the night view of the bright lights of the land in China from a space perspective, and specially sent thanks and blessings to the ground support team who were staying at their posts day and night.

Astronaut Wang Haoze: Whenever we pass by the sky above the motherland, we always think of the scientific and technological personnel from various measurement and control sites. This Spring Festival, you are still sticking to the front line and watching the space. Thank you for your hard work.

Astronaut Song Lingdong: I would like to thank the ground aerospace science and technology personnel for their day and night companionship. It is precisely because of you that the Chinese space station can operate smoothly in space. It is precisely because of you that our space travel is more at ease.

It is understood that during the Spring Festival holiday, astronauts can arrange activities independently, including video calls with family members and relatives, carry out entertainment activities and independent exercises. Starting from the third year of junior high school, all training and work of the astronaut crew will continue to be carried out in an orderly manner.
