NgoJuni 17, irokhethi elithwala i-Long March 2 F Yao 12 elithwele umkhumbi-mkhathi wase-Shenzhou 12 lathungelwa ngomlilo lasuswa e-Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. Njengento yokuthwala, isamba esingamagremu angu-29.9 embewu ye-orchid yaseNanjing yayiswa emkhathini nosonkanyezi abathathu ukuze bangene ohambweni lwasemkhathini lwezinyanga ezintathu.

Uhlobo lwama-orchid oluzokhuliswa emkhathini kulokhu utshani obubomvu, obakhethwa futhi bakhuliswa i-Fujian Forestry Science and Technology Experimental Center, okuyiyunithi engaphansi kwe-Fujian Forestry Bureau.

Njengamanje, ukuzalanisa emkhathini sekusetshenziswe kabanzi ekusungulweni kwemboni yembewu yezolimo. Ukuzalanisa isikhala se-orchid ukuthumela imbewu ekhethwe ngokucophelela emkhathini, ukusebenzisa ngokugcwele imisebe ye-cosmic, i-vacuum ephezulu, i-microgravity nezinye izindawo ukuze kuthuthukiswe izinguquko esakhiweni se-chromosome yembewu ye-orchid, bese kungena isiko lezicubu ze-laboratory ukuze kuzuzwe ukuhlukahluka kwezinhlobo ze-orchid. Ukuhlola. Uma kuqhathaniswa nokuzalanisa okuvamile, ukuzalanisa emkhathini kunamathuba aphezulu okushintsha izakhi zofuzo, okusiza ukuzalanisa ama-orchid amasha anesikhathi eside sokuqhakaza, izimbali eziqhakazile, ezinkulu, ezingavamile, nezinephunga elimnandi.

I-Fujian Forestry Science and Technology Experiment Centre kanye ne-Flower Research Institute ye-Yunnan Academy of Agricultural Sciences ngokuhlanganyela benze ucwaningo mayelana nokuzalaniswa emkhathini kwama-orchid aseNanjing kusukela ngo-2016, kusetshenziswa umkhumbi-mkhathi ophethwe umuntu othi "Tiangong-2", irokhethi elithwala i-Long March 5B, kanye ne-Shenzhou 12 carrier eduze Nembewu ye-OrchidNanjingries yabantu. Njengamanje, sekutholwe imigqa emibili yokuhluma kwembewu yama-orchid.

I-Fujian Forestry Science and Technology Experiment Centre izoqhubeka nokusebenzisa umqondo omusha kanye nobuchwepheshe be-"Space Technology+" ukwenza ucwaningo ngokushintshwa kombala weqabunga le-orchid, umbala wembali, nephunga lezimbali, kanye nokucubungula kanye nokuhlaziywa kokusebenza kwezakhi zofuzo eziguquguqukayo, futhi kusungulwe uhlelo lokuguqula izakhi zofuzo ukuze kuthuthukiswe izinga lokuhlukahluka kwe-orchid, ukukhuphula izinga lokuzalanisa, ukusheshisa ukuzalanisa kwezinhlobo zezilwane. "ukuzalanisa ukuguquka kwesikhala + ukuzalanisa ubunjiniyela bofuzo" kuma-orchid.
