Hong Kong\u2019s first astronaut Lai Ka-ying and her two fellow Shenzhou-23 crew members will deliver a live lecture from space for students and teachers in the city and neighbouring Macau.<\/p>\n
Hong Kong authorities revealed on Saturday plans for live broadcasts of \u201cTiangong Class\u201d to take place soon, without specifying the date and time.<\/p>\n
The activity, jointly organised by the Hong Kong and Macau governments and the China Manned Space Agency, includes an expert lecture, an in-orbit demonstration and a question-and-answer session to showcase the environment in space.<\/p>\n
Hong Kong\u2019s Education Bureau will arrange for primary and secondary schoolteachers and students to watch the live broadcast on campuses on the day of the event, while a delegation from Macau will visit the city to attend \u201cTiangong Class\u201d.<\/p>\n
A live online broadcast will be arranged on the Information Services Department\u2019s website and Facebook page, as well as local television stations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will be a valuable aerospace science education activity, allowing students to watch live demonstrations of science experiments conducted in the unique environment of space, with a view to enhancing their knowledge of aerospace science and stimulating their interest in learning,\u201d a spokesperson said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hong Kong\u2019s first astronaut Lai Ka-ying and her two fellow Shenzhou-23 crew members will deliver a live lecture…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":615942,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[14914,136261,823,240,61,261353,60,200519,35904,82,88829,247,261354,16883],"class_list":["post-615941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-space","tag-china-manned-space-agency","tag-education-bureau","tag-facebook","tag-hong-kong","tag-ie","tag-information-services-department","tag-ireland","tag-lai-ka-ying","tag-macau","tag-science","tag-shenzhou","tag-space","tag-tiangong-class","tag-tiangong-space-station"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615941","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=615941"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615941\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/615942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=615941"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=615941"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=615941"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
