During the experiment, pluripotent stem cells – a special kind of stem cells that have the potential to grow into all major human cells – were brought into the Wentian lab module on the space station, where some of them successfully grew into hematopoietic stem cells – another kind of stem cells that produce blood cells.
Dozens of other science experiments were also conducted by the Shenzhou-15 crew during their stay at the China Space Station.
