A CHINESE participant has performed well in the Mars-500 project, a simulated space flight to Mars, the project's chief said yesterday in Moscow, Russia.
Boris Morukov, who is also deputy director of the Medical and Biological Studies Institute of the Russian Academy of Science, said on the 233rd day of the experiment that Chinese participant Wang Yue has displayed a strong sense of teamwork and perseverance while conducting his research.
"All participants in the experiment work as a single team. Wang Yue adapted himself completely to this work and became an integral part of the crew," Morukov said.
"We had some concerns over him, but he proved to be a man with a strong will, who does everything until he succeeds. Wang has been under constant observation by Russian and Chinese representatives, who provide him with information about his family and relatives," he said.
"Wang even started teaching his colleagues Chinese," Morukov said.
Mars-500 was launched in Moscow on June 3. A six-member international team - three Russians, a French, an Italian and a Chinese - is taking part in the 520-day journey that simulates a 250-day trip, a 30-day stay on the "surface" of Mars and a 240-day return flight.
