Today, the polar research vessel "Xuelong" completed its return to the factory for maintenance and left the dock of China Shipbuilding Corporation Jiangnan Shipyard. At the same time, the "Xuelong 2" that returned to the factory also entered the final stage of maintenance. In the future, the two ships will carry out Arctic research expeditions in the next quarter as planned.
