Taikonaut -- the Chinese equivalent of astronaut or cosmonaut -- Ye, 36, is the first of China's five male second-generation astronauts to meet the press.

 

Ye and five other prospective¹ astronauts from Japan, Russia, Spain and the United States spent six nights in Sardinian caves from July 1 to 7, simulating a mission to another planet, during the European Space Agency (ESA) underground training course CAVES (Cooperative Adventure for Valuing and Exercising human behavior and performance Skills.)

 

The mission focused on multi-cultural approaches to leadership, following orders, teamwork and decision-making, according to the ESA.

 

"The cave is isolated² from the outside world and is dark, damp and cold. We six were responsible for completing daily tasks such as climbing, exploration and surveying; really arduous³ but worthwhile training," Ye said as he addressed the media in Beijing.
