Imagine asking astronauts about zero-gravity workouts or spine-stretching space magic—and getting answers LIVE from orbit! 🚀 Over 300 Hungarian students geeked out with China’s Shenzhou-20 crew during a historic ‘Tiangong Classroom’ session, bridging Budapest and the China Space Station.
A Cosmic Classroom
Co-hosted by the Chinese Embassy and Hungarian Academy of Sciences, the event showcased microgravity experiments (think floating water droplets! 💧) and tackled mind-blowing Q&As from 100+ schools. Talk about #STEMgoals!
Young Minds, Big Questions
• Rocket-building teen Tamas (16) asked about space gym gear 🏋️♂️ and saw his experiment idea selected!
• Future astrophysicist Sara (15) wondered: ‘Do astronauts really grow taller in space?’ 🌠
• Tech whiz Bence (15) probed circadian rhythms under starry skies: ‘How does your body clock work up there?’
‘Science Has No Borders’
Hungarian Academy VP Ferenc Hudecz praised China’s ‘commitment to inspiring Gen-Z explorers,’ while Ambassador Gong Tao called it a ‘new chapter’ in bilateral innovation. With the Shenzhou crew midway through their 6-month mission, this collab proves one thing: curiosity orbits higher than any satellite. 🌍✨
