Two Chinese astronauts have completed a several-hour-long space walk outside the Tiangong space station. The mission was notable for featuring China’s first woman astronaut to perform the out-of-this-world procedure.

Wang Yeping was joined by fellow astronaut Zhai Zhigang, another of the three-person team currently aboard China’s latest space station. The two successfully completed the 6.5-hour spacewalk in the early hours of Monday morning, according to the China Manned Space Agency.

The pair disembarked from the main module of the Tiangong station on a spacewalk that lasted over six hours. They carried out tests alongside the station’s robotic arm and installed equipment for part of the station’s ongoing construction.

A third astronaut, Ye Guangfu, assisted the duo from inside the station. State broadcaster CCTV shared footage of the astronauts carrying out their tasks and floating in space.
