Twenty Chinese students in Nanjing, the capital of east China's Jiangsu Province on Sunday spoke directly via amateur radio with an astronaut orbiting above them in the International Space Station (ISS). The group of 20 students, aged 10 to 19, hailed from Shanghai, Guangzhou and Nanjing. They began talking with Clayton C. Anderson, a 48-year-old American astronaut at 18:50 PM at the Nanjing No.3 Middle School when the ISS was passing over Nanjing. (Xinhua) |
