Every space flight is an adventure, every test of a new spacecraft is a gamble.

No one knows what the outcome will be until the spacecraft actually enters the sky.

Two pairs of variable angle fixed wings allow Xiaguang to have more flexible jet directions, but at the same time it adds greater risk to its wing components.

Even if the servo motor control system that drives the steering of the wing was designed by Xiao Ai, Lu Zhou didn't have a complete grasp of Xiaguang's test flight and would not encounter accidents.

All I can say is that he will make every effort to minimize this possibility ...

In the second half of the meeting, the topics discussed basically focused on the timetable of the Xiaguang test flight plan and the launch plan of the Miyakoku module next month.

According to the opinions of both Aerospace Group and Aerospace Group, the next launch was scheduled one month later. After the node module and the core module have been combined, the Lunar Palace floating on the lunar orbit will have more room for expansion, and can also be docked with manned aircraft such as the Xiangrui.

In this way, although it seems more compact, it can barely be regarded as a true "port"!

At the same time, just after the test flight and the next launch plan were put on the agenda, the United States, far from the Pacific Ocean, was not idle.

With the successful start of the life support unit remotely through the control of the ground base station, the training of the three volunteers has also been completed, and the Americans seem to have no reason to wait any longer.

After passing the congressional approval process, NASA quickly announced in a high-profile that it was moving the Ares plan to the next stage.

That is, send out the first colonists!

When the news was announced, it unexpectedly caused a sensation worldwide.

Although sending colonial pioneers to Mars was a matter of course, no one expected that Americans would move so quickly and even hurriedly.

Perhaps China ’s urgency in the aerospace field really made NASA nervous. They eagerly hoped to prove to Congress and their people through a great victory that they are awakening in controlling space hegemony.

Before the departure, the New York Times and Columbia TV, with the sponsorship of the North American Outer Space Exploration Foundation and space-X, arranged a grand talk show for the three volunteers.

This is not only a farewell to the three heroes before they leave, but also a large volunteer to raise advertisements.

In the third phase of the Ares program, 10 function bays will be launched in batches to land on the surface of Mars, and 50 colonial pioneers will be sent to the village of Mars within five years. For NASA and Space-X participating companies, how? Eliminating people ’s fear of going to space and the unknown is also about whether the Ares project can continue ...

Everything is ready. On the day of the talk show, wearing a slightly fancy suit, the famous talk show host Jamie Tang came to the stage and bowed slightly to the audience sitting under the stage and in front of the TV. , Then smiled and showed his mouth full of white teeth.

"Hello, Hello, welcome to our space warrior talk show. Today is a special show. There is only one episode in the season. If you accidentally brushed this program while sitting in front of the TV, you will definitely make money! "

Through the funny expressions, the audiences laughed. Jamie Tang skillfully heated up the atmosphere of the scene, then turned his attention to the big screen behind him.

"The content of today's program is believed to be unnecessary for me to talk nonsense. Our opponent threw the Moon Palace on the moon, and our NASA is about to blast them-of course, I am not talking about blasting in the physical sense, but here On the ring, beat them all to find their teeth. "

Just kidding, Jamie looked at the audience smiling and shaking, and continued with a smile.

"Calm down, calm down, don't get excited, everyone knows that this is easy. Although our opponents are strong, they are at least 60 million kilometers away from us, so I said it was easy because our Victory is almost doomed! "

After a pause, Jamie raised her hands with a smile, raised her voice, and continued to speak in an impassioned tone.

"So, rather than calling it a race, I would rather call it an adventure! Our warriors, our heroes, will cross tens or even hundreds of millions of kilometers of air routes to the unknown new continent Opening up territory for our civilization. "

"From this great plan, our opponents have never been a certain country, only our own! And only the future of us and all humanity is worthy of our warriors to challenge!"

The atmosphere at the scene was pushed to a peak.

Keenly read this, Jamie logically brought the show to today's topic.

"Very honored! On this special day, we are fortunate to have invited our three heroes to our show! Let us applaud them!"

The atmosphere at the scene was suddenly lit.

The applause sounded like a thunder blast, mixed with the whistle and cheer, which almost overturned the entire roof.

In the thunderous applause and the ringing BGM, the three astronauts followed one another in a pre-arranged order, came to the guest table, and took seats at the invitation of Jamie.

The applause and BGM stopped.

Jamie lifted the microphone to his lips and said with a smile to the audience.

"I am honored to introduce to you, the man sitting on my left is the commander Johnson of this moon landing project! He once served in the Marine Corps. He is a true warrior and patriot, let us once again Give him applause! "

The applause sounded again.

Johnson smiled politely to the audience and nodded.

After waiting for the applause to stop, Jamie grinned at Johnson, held out the microphone in his hand, and nodded his head, "It seems that everyone likes you very much, and say hello to our audience!"

"Hello everyone, I am the commander of this expedition, and I am honored to be here to meet you."

Johnson is a mature and typical middle-aged white man with a masculine appearance and a burly figure. It is easy to make people feel good in both image and conversation.

While he was explaining some unknown details of the second phase of the Ares plan, the audience was listening very carefully.

Finally finishing his own line, Johnson set his sights on Jamie standing beside him.

Jamie continued with a smile.

"I heard you have served on an aircraft carrier before?"

"Yes."

Jamie continues to ask, "What made you interested in space? Or, let's you decide to sign up for the Ares program."

Johnson thought about it and replied, "Because of my dreams, because of my interest in travel ... and for my children."

"Your child?" Jamie looked at Johnson in surprise and reached out to the microphone in his hand. "Can you elaborate?"

Family is an eternal topic in the United States, especially when it comes to children.

Johnson paused for a moment and continued to speak.

"I have a wife who loves me and two lovely children. My children want their dad to be a hero, and I want to be their role model, so I am on the official website of the Ares Project. After filling out the application form, I was just trying it out. I didn't expect ... it was so amazing that I was successfully selected. "

Jamie smiled: "Fate is always so wonderful, I believe your child will be proud of your bravery!"

Johnson nodded.

"Thank you."

The camera began to rotate, switching from Johnson to his two other players.

Another female astronaut looked good-looking, blond, about 20 years old, and named Jones. It seems to be a little cramped because it has not experienced any big scenes.

According to her self-introduction, she was a secondary school teacher in Amsterdam, The Netherlands before enrolling.

The other black dude, named Tavie, looks physically stronger than Johnson, and he is very imposing. According to his own introduction, he was a professional rugby player before, and once played quarterback on the Atlanta team.

I just don't know why, in the interview, his spirit seemed a little weak, as if he didn't sleep well all night.

In order to activate the atmosphere, Jamie teased a joke.

"You must have been so excited that you didn't sleep well last night. It seems you are looking forward to this trip."

"Maybe ..." Tai Wei smiled a little reluctantly, and made a brave expression, "I'm just too tired, you know, training is not easy."

"Relax, my buddy," Captain Johnson patted his shoulder, gave him an encouraging look, and we will return home safely and bring back the glory of the United States. "

"Of course, we will come back ..."

Taiwei tried to squeeze out a smile, but his eyes were subtle and erratic, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Jamie did not continue to control him, and turned his attention to the audience. With an impassioned voice, the atmosphere at the scene reached a peak.

"Our warriors are ready to go! The huge ship on the expedition is about to set sail!"

"The launch time will be 8pm next Wednesday ~ www.readwn.com ~ and the live broadcast of the launch site will be live!"

"God will bless our warriors, and the torch of Liberty will guide them! Let us send our sincere blessings to our warriors!"

"Praise them!"

The studio was filled again with applause.

With applause, the show came to an end.

I do not know whether it was intentional or not. The launch time of the "Golden Heart" spacecraft announced in the program was almost on the same day as the launch plan of the Xiaguang spacecraft announced by Huaguo.

The two sides seem to have been dissatisfied with each other and intend to have a close competition.

This race seems to be getting interesting ...
