Chapter 325 Dongfanghong No. 1 (5000 big chapters)

When the plane passed through the Earth's atmosphere and reached the orbital height of Tiangong safely and smoothly, the Snow Owl slowed down the plane.

From the time they took off to entering orbit, the total time it took was just over half an hour. This time was not unpleasant, but it was maintained at a slow speed for a long time when they took off.

If we used the fastest speed from the beginning, we would probably be able to cover one-fifteenth of the distance between the earth and the moon in half an hour.

When the plane entered the orbit of the Tiangong Space Station, the five Snow Owl pilots did not feel anything strange. However, for the astronaut, the speed was too fast. It was really too fast.

It’s not that he has never carried out a space mission before, he has also stayed in the Tiangong for half a year, but to be close to the Tiangong in such a short period of time like this time is really an unprecedented experience, so all this is It made him feel incredible.

He had always heard that this plane was fast, but he didn't expect it to be so fast. He originally thought it would take five or six hours to fly.

Moreover, nothing happened to his body along the way, even when he rose into space. Now he didn't feel any weightlessness at all.

"Lieutenant Colonel Sun, we have now arrived in space. Not far from us is our Tiangong Space Station. Our aircraft will take a short rest here, and then we will move towards the Tiangong Space Station."

The Snow Owl controlled the aircraft to stop in place and move in space according to the predetermined trajectory. When the astronaut surnamed Sun heard his words, he sat aside and nodded. At this moment, he no longer had the intention to pay attention to what they said. Now he was feeling it. The gravity we still have in space is an amazing feeling.

The six people who ascended into space took a short rest in space. In fact, it was mainly to give the ground remote sensing observation station a reaction time and to report follow-up operations to the ground.

After establishing contact with the ground, the aircraft approached the Tiangong Space Station at an extremely slow speed.

Jiuzhou didn't react at all to the plane's takeoff and sudden acceleration, but the ones who reacted the most were Lao Mo and the others who had received the order before, because right under their noses, a man who had just been within their observation range The plane suddenly disappeared.

The feeling was really terrifying. No one knew where such a plane would fly. The old commander was so nervous that he was about to issue an attack order, but in the end he held back.

A few minutes later, through the Kyushu Space Agency's information channel, they learned the flight trajectory of the hour-long plane and that the plane was not coming towards them, which made them feel relieved.

The feeling of being on the verge of war is really terrifying.

For this commander, the last time he felt this way was the time when xx visited Jiuzhou and angered Kyushu. At that time, he was a member of the Genli.

From then on, he had a feeling that the rise of Kyushu would be absolutely unstoppable in the future, and even they, the old fools, could not stop it. It was the same feeling at the time, let alone the more domineering Kyushu now.

He really didn't want to experience that kind of nervous state anymore, but things were so unpredictable that he was actually assigned to the command of the anti-aircraft missile force. When he found out about it, he wanted to die.

The tranquility before the war was actually the most nerve-wracking. Fortunately, it was a near miss this time. Only a few minutes later, they got the information about the plane from Kyushu, otherwise they would really have attacked. intention.

The aircraft that has become a cargo cargo in space is slowly approaching the Tiangong Space Station under the control of Snow Owl. The astronauts, who have been in orbit for more than sixty days, are currently waiting in the Tiangong Space Station for the sacred aircraft to dock not far from them.

The Tiangong Space Station didn't move at all. It was supposed to be running in both directions, but judging from the maneuverability of both parties, it is better to let the aircraft take the lead when it comes to docking! Therefore, the Tiangong Space Station has stopped moving and is still running on its original track.

After the plane approached the Tiangong Space Station, its speed also slowed down. When the distance between the two was only two meters, the plane stopped under the control of Snow Owl and the others.

Then I saw a robotic arm extending from the side of the aircraft. The three-meter-long robotic arm stretched out toward the Tiangong Space Station. Under the control of one of the pilots, the robotic arm grabbed the Tiangong Space Station.

The two parties were brought closer under the action of the robotic arm, and the robotic arm also adjusted the docking posture as the two parties approached. Once the posture was adjusted, the docking ports of both parties were all aligned.

Although this adjustment process is said to be slow, it is not actually slow. Even if the aircraft stops, it is only compared to the Tiangong Space Station. Their real speed is really not slow.

The aircraft was brought closer again under the action of the robotic arm, and the docking ports of both sides finally came together. Then the docking level was started, and the locking device on the docking port quickly operated to connect the aircraft and the Tiangong Space Station.

At this point, all that is left is to open the hatch and transfer everything on the plane to the Tiangong Space Station.

After the docking was successfully completed, the two parties communicated for a while, and then the six people on the plane started taking action.

The six of them carefully checked all their spacesuits before getting up from the driver's seat. The Snow Owl came to the connecting hatch between the cockpit and the cargo cabin. After opening the hatch, the six of them People came to the cargo warehouse through the hatch.

The six people walked through the cargo warehouse filled with cargo, and finally came to the hatch that connected with Tiangong. Both sides of the docking hatch confirmed again before starting to open the cabin.

The hatches on both sides were slowly opened following the movements of the astronauts on both sides. Since the aircraft was manufactured relatively late, the robotic arm technology is more mature than that of the previous Tiangong, so the door on the aircraft is semi-automatic, while the door on the Tiangong is a manual door.

When the door on one side of the plane was opened, the Tiangong door was only halfway open. At this point, the astronauts on the Tiangong side sped up their hands, and the six people on the plane stood quietly at the door, waiting for the opposite hatch to open.

A few more minutes passed, and the hatch on the side of the Tiangong was finally fully opened, and the eleven people met in victory.

The eleven people were extremely happy at this moment. This was the first time that the aircraft developed by Li Zhenhua officially performed a mission.

The liftoff was successfully completed, and the docking with Tiangong was completed within an hour. Such a speed had never been seen before, and the method used this time was not the same as the previous cargo spacecraft. It is the only existing space shuttle in the world today.

And it is a reusable aerospace plane. The emergence of this aircraft will make Kyushu's aerospace costs plummet in the future. Suddenly, it is as if the launch vehicle has lost its status and it has been replaced by the newly emerged aerospace plane.

The total space in the cargo hold of the aircraft is 200 cubic meters. Although this cargo mission was loaded slowly, there are still gaps between the air boxes and the air boxes. Unless materials like lunar soil are used, the cargo yard can be filled. It was all filled up, but even so, the materials carried were still more than 150 cubic meters.

The docking has been completed. What the eleven of them have to do next is to work together to transfer all the materials from the aircraft to the Tiangong Space Station. Next, they must transfer the domestic garbage remaining on the Tiangong space to the aircraft. Complete After the exchange of materials between the two parties, this freight mission was completely completed.

In the following time, eleven people worked together to transfer the goods from the cargo hold of the plane to Tiangong. Time always passed quickly when they were busy. Of course, this kind of busyness also made them move all the goods on the plane. Arrive at the Heavenly Palace and place it in place.

Speaking of which, 200 square meters of space is not that big. The interior space of an eighty-square-meter, three-meter-high two-bedroom apartment is more than 200 cubic meters. Their workspace for eleven people is equivalent to emptying out a quilt. A full one-bedroom apartment of 60 square meters.

Even though it didn't look very big, the eleven of them still carried it for five hours.

When the cargo hold of the plane was emptied, eleven people in space suits lay down together in the empty space. They were resting at the moment.

The leader of the Tiangong Space Station astronauts was lying on the ground in the cockpit of the aircraft, looking up at the ceiling above, feeling the gravity coming back again, and couldn't help but let out a sigh in his heart!

"Snowy Owl, how is gravity achieved on this plane? It feels really wonderful to return to the gravity environment, but there is one disadvantage, that is, the five of us have been in a state of weightlessness for too long. Okay, now I actually feel physically uncomfortable!

Alas, we humans are still suitable for living in an environment with the same gravity as the earth. This weightless environment is really unfriendly to our bodies!

Do you think it is possible to apply this gravity technology to the Tiangong Space Station, so that we can still enjoy the gravity of the earth in space? "One of the astronauts was lying on the floor and asked towards the snowy owl lying not far away.

The Snow Owl was asked, but he didn't know how to answer at this moment. Even though he drove the plane, he only learned to fly it, and he didn't know how to build it. Although the pilot would sometimes help the mechanic. They perform some simple aircraft maintenance, but those are only extremely simple tasks. They are pilots rather than ground mechanics.

Ordinary airplanes are like this, let alone a space plane with such cutting-edge technology. They have never heard of many of the cutting-edge technologies used on it. They really don't know how to answer the Tiangong astronauts' questions.

"I really can't explain this matter clearly. After all, we are just pilots, not the designers who designed this aircraft. If you want to find out about this issue, you have to ask Academician Li Zhenhua.

But in my opinion, it is very possible to apply this gravity technology to the Tiangong Space Station, but how to implement it is not something we can know! "

Snow Owl sat up from where he was and answered the question seriously. When the astronauts heard his answer, a look of disappointment appeared on their faces, but then disappeared, because what they cared about might not come true. .

Afterwards, the leader of the astronaut team, after coming to his senses, climbed up from the aircraft cargo hold and stood on the spot and spoke to his team members.

"Comrades, it's time for us to return to Tiangong. Staying in the gravity environment for too long is not conducive to our subsequent on-orbit missions."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and passed through the door connecting the plane and the Tiangong. He returned from the gravity-laden aircraft to the weightless environment of the Tiangong space. A door separated the two sides, making a world of difference between the gravity of the two sides.

Snow Owl and the other astronauts who had become monks on the way, after hearing what they just said, they immediately got up from the floor, stood in line, and gave a solemn military salute to the five people who exited the plane and returned to the Tiangong Space Station. .

Also saluting with them was another astronaut who came up on a freewheeling plane. After all the Tiangong astronauts returned to Tiangong, this astronaut from the freewheeling machine walked out from Snow Owl's team and stood in front of them. After saluting, he turned around and walked towards the Heavenly Palace.

This little episode happened during the short rest period after transporting the supplies. Although the weightlessness state is quite fun, long-term weightlessness is actually very harmful to the human body. It affects the working status of many organs in the human body and can cause disorders in the autonomic nerves in charge of breathing, digestion, circulation, excretion, etc.

Various symptoms will occur, which is one of the reasons why astronauts have to be lifted out of the spacecraft after returning to Earth.

The eleven of them are now divided into two teams by car!

After transporting the materials in the warehouse, Snow Owl and the others took advantage of their rest time to visit the Tiangong Space Station and briefly experience the feeling of weightlessness in space. Then both parties returned to their respective positions. , performed a sleep in space.

Snow Owl and the others got up early the next morning, cleaned up their personal hygiene, and then transferred the garbage from Tiangong to the plane. So far, their mission was considered a staged success.

The task of getting the plane up this time is half completed. The exchange of goods between the two parties has now been completed. After the phased task is completed, the Snow Owl controls the mechanical arm on the plane to extend again. After both parties close the hatch doors, the plane and Tiangong Space Station were disconnected from each other.

After the connection was disconnected, the robotic arm pushed the aircraft away from the Tiangong Space Station with slight force. After the two sides reached a certain distance, the power system on the aircraft began to work. After the aircraft gained power, it began the next phase of its mission. .

What’s next? Of course, it is to recover the huge amount of space junk floating in space.

Snow Owl and the others control the plane and fly in space. The first thing they have to recover now is not ordinary things, but the first satellite in the sky from Kyushu, Dongfanghong No. 1, this satellite of epoch-making significance.

After finding Dongfanghong 1, they will strictly protect it and put it aside separately from the space junk that will be recovered later. Before they came up, the curator of the Kyushu Space Museum personally asked them to use this satellite. things.

They also believe that this work is of great significance, so they are currently controlling the aircraft, flying towards the orbit where Dongfanghong 1 once operated based on the data previously provided by the Kyushu Space Administration.

Arriving at the earth's orbit where Dongfanghong 1 was previously operating, the plane's speed also slowed down, and it circled around the orbit of the Dongfanghong 1 satellite.

After this circle, they also discovered the target they wanted to capture this time, Dongfanghong No. 1, which was one meter in diameter and weighed only 173 kilograms.

The plane controlled its flight speed and slowly approached Dongfanghong No. 1. When the distance between the two was only two meters, the plane stopped at that place.

Then the robotic arm on the plane stretched out again, and then the robotic arm showed off its skills. The flexible robotic arm was approaching Dongfanghong No. 1 not far away.

Just a minute later, Dongfanghong No. 1 was firmly locked by the robotic arm. There were no accidents in the process. The subsequent actions were also simple. The aircraft cargo door was opened under the control of Snow Owl and others, and the robotic arm took Dongfanghong with it. Red No. 1, reaching into the cargo door.

Dongfanghong-1 was successfully sent into the cargo hold of the aircraft by the robotic arm. At the moment when the Dongfanghong-1 satellite entered the cargo hold of the aircraft, the door of the aircraft cargo compartment was immediately closed after the robotic arm was removed, and the robotic arm was retracted back to the aircraft. in vivo.

The first satellite in Kyushu's history has come into contact with the Kyushu aircraft again after more than fifty years, and it will soon take this aerospace plane to enter the atmosphere again and return to the place where it was made.

After that, it will no longer drift in space, and its final destination will be sent to the Kyushu Aerospace Museum for future generations to see.

After the cargo hold door was closed, Snow Owl and the others took the packaging materials to the cargo hold and took strict protective measures for the newly recovered Dongfanghong No. 1.

After packing Dongfanghong No. 1, placing it in an extremely safe place, and surrounding it with protective materials, they started the next recovery mission.

Their main target for recycling this time was satellites like Dongfanghong 1 that failed in space and belonged to Kyushu. When these satellites were manufactured, they were made of very solid materials, so there were a lot of precious metals on them.

After recycling, these satellites will be dismantled and refurbished to extract the valuable materials and use them in subsequent new satellites to make them shine again.

There are a lot of these failed satellites in space. They are targeting these satellites for this mission. After recovering Kyushu's failed satellites, they will start targeting failed satellites of other countries later.

As for the reaction of the Congress to which these satellites belong on the ground, that is completely outside the scope of Kyushu's consideration. Whoever makes your satellites ineffective will become space junk.

Since it is space junk, it will occupy the orbit near the earth. Not only will it have no good effect, but it will also have bad effects, so the Kyushu Space Administration has also thought of countermeasures.

As long as they ask, Kyushu is doing good things in space and biting the recycled stuff is garbage. Is it wrong for Kyushu, who acts as a cleaner, to clean the orbit near the earth and recycle garbage?

What a righteous response. I believe that countries that receive this kind of answer will definitely fall in love with this kind of response.

The Snow Owls and others fly airplanes in space to act as earth sanitation workers. What is the manufacturer of the airplane doing at this moment? He was sitting in the workshop, working hard towards the Raptors C!
