The Shenzhou-23 crew on China's space station has completed the installation of the Multi-Spectral Imaging Carbon Observatory (MUSICO), the station's first spaceborne greenhouse gas detector. The instrument monitors carbon dioxide and methane concentrations across mid and low latitude regions, providing data for tracking global emissions and ecological research. This marks a step forward in space-based climate monitoring capabilities. The detector is compact and designed for high resolution and precision. It will focus on key regions to help scientists understand greenhouse gas sources and sinks. The crew also conducted microgravity physics experiments and studied how light affects human psychology and work efficiency in space. Routine maintenance and health monitoring tasks were completed as well.
