Chinese taikonauts Fei Junlong and Nie Haisheng, having got accustomed to conditions in space, began to enjoy their life aboard the Shenzhou-6 spacecraft.

At 9:35 a.m. Wednesday, Fei toying with his floating pen and looking out of the window occasionally at the earth below was seen on the big screen in the Beijing Aerospace Command and Control Center.

The screen also displayed Fei opening a bag to show people the contents inside.

At 2:36 p.m., the taikonauts took out a video camera to shoot the earth beneath them.

The screen later show both men in good condition, with Fei Junlong shaving.

At 4:30 p.m., Fei did something that captured people in the command and control center. He turned a forward somersault.
