Chapter 266 The first person in space
There is a national flag that makes you feel excited when you look at it, and the Soviet flag can deserve this meaning. No one has ever dared to express the blatant side of communism, and no one dared to imprint the entire earth on its national emblem. The founders of the Soviet Union chose this symbol to express their ideas and were destined to face unprecedented suffering.
Perhaps as the Communist Manifesto says, the Communists disdained to conceal their views and intentions. They publicly declared that their purpose could only be achieved by violent overthrowing all existing social systems. Let the ruling class tremble in the face of the communist revolution. What the proletariat lost in this revolution is only chains. What they gained will be the whole world.
The founders of the Soviet Union chose this idea as the standard for the establishment of the Soviet Union. Therefore, no matter what difficulties and tests they will face, they are waiting for the Soviet Union ahead, and they should stick to their ideals and continue to move forward.
"What is most lacking in this world is temporary difficulties! It can only be called temporary..." Selov said to the red flag opposite the control room building. Even if he cheers up himself, he is also convincing himself that you are doing very well and believe that you have no mistakes in your position. The result of the Cold War cannot show that the United States is more just, and that is just one of the spiral development. They cannot eliminate the existence of communist ideas unless Americans can eliminate the class.
Serov, who witnessed Gagarin's heaven, couldn't help but feel excited. Standing by the corridor window, he was lit a cigarette in front of the Soviet flag. In principle, Baikonur did not allow smoking, but if he was indoors, he could be eased. In fact, all the people in the control room were immersed in joy regardless of the level or occupation.
All the previous tensions were released, and today's cathartic explosion was like this. Even through the thick iron gate, Selov could feel the passionate atmosphere in the control room. He raised his wrist and looked at the time. He was about to go in and remind him, and he saw that the door had been pushed open. Lieutenant General Varianjing, the director of the Sixth General Administration, was stunned when he saw Selov in the smoke and said hurriedly, "Everything is going well at the moment. We seem to be doing some preparation!"
"Prepare the transport plane immediately. Comrade Gagarin's inner guards are ready to welcome our space heroes!" Selov narrowed his eyes and said, "Has Commander-in-Chief Korolev calculated the location of Gagarin's landing?"
"According to the previous calculations, the landing location should be in Saratov Prefecture southeast of Engels!" Lieutenant General Vulianjing replied.
"Give power to the KGB office in Saratov Prefecture and the State Administration of Internal Affairs to prepare the local forces. It seems that the middle of the border guards and the inner guard station, notify the troops close to the distance to rush there immediately. It is time to welcome our space hero!" After sending the order, Selov thought for a while and added, "Bring the camera, this will be the most precious information. So far we are all perfect. Don't make mistakes on such small problems..."
While speaking, Selov had already arrived at the door of the control room. He opened the door and looked at the atmosphere that had not calmed down inside. He reminded him, "Dear comrades, commander-in-chief, and leaders, Lieutenant General Varianjing has prepared a transport plane. We are about to arrive at the landing site of Gagarin in Saratov Prefecture. Are you ready to come together?"
"I'll go see Yuri, and I have to ask him many questions before I can figure it out!" Sergei Korolev and Krim Alievich Krimo spoke almost at the same time, saying the same words, and were stunned for a moment, but they both insisted on their own ideas.
"Comrade Gagarin has not come back yet. An expert needs to stay in the control room to command!" Selov did not want these two most precious experts of the Soviet Union to be so tired. To be honest, the lives of the two people are much more important than him.
"Krim, stay here and continue to command! I will follow General Sergei Korolev to Saratov Prefecture!" Sergei Korolev looked at Sergov's eyes and said seriously, "I believe that our Soviet Union's most professional security cadres..."
"The KGB will never let anyone down, come with me!" The scientist's words touched a string in Selov's heart, but now there is no time to be moved. He immediately used the walkie-talkie to contact Lieutenant General Varianjing outside. The two were about to enter the military transport plane that had been prepared.
"First Vice Chairman, local KGB and cadres of the State Administration of Internal Affairs in Saratov Prefecture have called back. They are ready to welcome our space heroes!" Lieutenant General Varianjing, who was waiting on the transport plane, saw Serov and Korolev coming over, followed by a squad of border guard soldiers. These soldiers were fully armed and carrying parachute bags behind them. It can be seen that the KGB has made emergency preparations for various possible situations.
The old driver signaled that there was no problem. The transport plane accelerated and slowly left Baikonur's airport.
At this time, Gagarin began to cross the South Pacific Ocean. Gagarin replied in the high-frequency signal: "I am sending a regular report message: flight is normal... The drop status indicator is moving. Air pressure 1, humidity 65, temperature 20, air pressure in the cabin 1.2, manual system 150. The first automatic system 155, the second automatic system 155, the return rocket air pressure 320 atmospheres, I feel good..."
Forty-one minutes later, Gagarin reported that he was on the dark side of the earth.
Forty-four minutes after the launch, Gagarin reported that the Sun Search and Altitude Control System had been turned on. This system is used for directional when the Oriental One returns. There are two redundant systems in the automatic return system: an automatic solar positioning system and an artificial visual positioning system. Any system can control two redundant propulsion systems containing 10 kilograms of nitrogen.
Forty-six minutes after the launch, the Khabarovsk ground station sent the following message to Gagarin through a high-frequency signal: "According to General Kamanin's order, the transmitter has been turned on, and we sent the following message: The flight is planned and the orbit is not deviated from the plan." They told Gagarin that Orient One is in a stable orbit. Gagarin accepted this message.
Fifty minutes after the launch, Gagarin was riding the Oriental One through the Strait of Magellan. The news of Oriental One was broadcast on Moscow Radio. Like many of Sherepin's friends, Meshatsev, the chairman of the Soviet Radio and Telecommunications Commission, who was already in power at a young age, usually news would not make him so excited. However, the news from Baikonur today also made him unable to hide his excitement. For this reason, Meshatsev selected a female announcer with the sweetest voice to broadcast the entire Soviet Union, informing the people of the whole alliance of the world's first astronaut to heaven.
"This is Moscow Radio! Now there is a news that will excite the whole alliance!" The sweet voice of the female announcer attracted the people of the entire capital. "At 9:07 Moscow time, at the Baikonur Space Center, our astronaut Yuri Gagarin called the Oriental-Oriental spacecraft successfully entering outer space, and perhaps flying over your heads. Today is a day worthy of the deep commemoration of the whole alliance. This time, Comrade Gagarin's sky over Comrade Gagarin reflects the Soviet's powerful scientific and technological capabilities. Four years ago, we sent the first artificial satellite of mankind to space. Today Comrade Gagarin became the first astronaut of mankind, which proves that socialist countries are more creative than capitalist countries..."
The gate of the camp was roughly opened in the Saratov Prefecture Border Force camp, and military vehicles carried border guards with KGB shoulder stamps left the camp. In fact, these soldiers were only aware of the upcoming tasks, but they still maintained a high-spirited state to execute the orders under the request of their superiors. The people next to the entire Saratov Prefecture Border Force camp suddenly discovered that almost all the camps were moving at the same time, and people didn't know what was going on.
When things happened, the radio station on the street rang out in time, "This is the Saratov Party Committee and the State Ministers' Meeting Department. Today, Saratov Prefecture will welcome a guest. Comrade Gagarin, the first astronaut in human history, will land in our Saratov Prefecture after completing a week of flight orbiting the earth. If someone catches the landing of the spacecraft, please don't panic. Report it to the KGB Office and the State Administration of Internal Affairs immediately, and we will arrive at the scene immediately..."
Meanwhile, the spacecraft crossed Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea, flying across the west coast of Cyprus and central Turkey. While lowering the altitude, the Oriental-Oriental return capsule entered the Soviet Union from near Krasnodar on the Black Sea coast. Gagarin experienced an overload of 8g but remained awake. Since Gagarin's parachute opened at a height higher than the height of the parachute opened at the spacecraft, Gagarin landed ten minutes after the spacecraft landed. Both Gagarin and the spacecraft landed in Saratov region southeast of Engels.
A farmer and his daughter who saw the spacecraft landing saw a huge spherical object landing, and a few minutes later Gagarin came out in an orange space suit. Hours later, when Selov and Korolev landed at the Saratov airport, they were immediately led to the place where Gagarin landed, "Are the cameras you prepared for you ready?"
"It's ready, just like the head you said, this will be first-hand information!" said the director of the State Administration of Internal Affairs of Saratov. To be honest, Serov didn't know this person, but the director naturally knew his young and overly young boss when he attended the security cadre conference in last year.
