After experiencing the "space walk" in zero gravity, the six silkworms taken aboard Tiangong II for experiment have started showing off their spinning skills.
在失重條件下經過“太空行走”之后，六只被帶上天宮二號做實驗的蠶蟲開始吐絲。
A footage released by CCTV on Thursday shows the insects spinning in their special "living rooms" held by astronaut Jing Haipeng.
本周四CCTV發布的片段鏡頭顯示，宇航員景海鵬手持蠶蟲的特殊“太空屋”，它們正在吐絲。
The six silkworms, "dwelling in" separate containers made from aerospace material, are wrapped with aerospace-used sponge, to help them better adapt to the environment.
這六只蠶蟲“居住”在航空材料制成的獨立容器中，由航空海綿包裹，這有利于它們更好地適應環境。
According to a researcher from China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, the six silkworms with "whiter skins" and "larger shape" were selected from nearly 4,000 silkworms after extensive training before starting their outer space travel.
據中國航天科技集團公司的一名研究人員介紹，這六只蠶蟲“皮膚更白”且“體型更大”，它們從近4000只蠶蟲當中挑選出來，在開啟太空旅行之前，它們還經過了廣泛訓練。
The silkworm experiment, one of the three projects designed by Hong Kong middle school students, aims to study the insect’s spinning, cocooning and transformation in microgravity.
蠶蟲實驗是三大項目之一，由香港中學生設計，旨在研究在微重力條件下昆蟲的吐絲、結繭和變態。
More experimental results are expected.
大家還在期待更多的實驗結果。
