For astronauts in space, exercise is important, it helps them stay healthy. There is a spin bike(动感单车), a treadmill(跑步机)and other fitness equipment(器材)in the space station.
There is no gravity in space, so they can't take showers (淋浴)like we do on Earth. Then how do they keep clean in the space station? Don't worry, Tiangong has a special bathroom. Astronauts can wipe(擦拭)themselves clean with a wet towel. What do they eat in the space station? There is bread and porridge for breakfast. There are also traditional Chinese dishes, like Kung Pao Chicken, fried rice and fried noodles with sliced(切片的)pork. There is a special "fridge" to store the food.
If they miss their families, they can make private "Sky- to-Earth" calls to chat with their families with the help of a headset(头盔). It can help them talk to the ground from any position(方位).
