Chapter 273 Five thousand years of dreams(2/2)
"I wonder if our astronauts can meet overseas astronauts on the moon. The scene will be absolutely shocking!"
"I haven't slept until now, but I finally waited."
In addition to the lively live broadcast rooms in China, there are even more people online in overseas live broadcast rooms because it happens to be during the day.
And the refreshed bullet screens are basically words of praise.
This was absolutely unthinkable before. It can only be said that when the strength is strong enough, even enemies will become followers.
Soon when the time comes to 2:20, the control center needs to have a final call with the astronauts on the ground, usually with words of encouragement so that the astronauts can perform the mission in the best mental state.
Xu Lei knew that he was not very good at this kind of work, so he left it all to Wu Chuping. After all, he was a professional.
——
Ye Junmin is a new generation of astronauts of the National Space Administration, and today is his first space mission.
As a newcomer to the agency, he encountered the moon landing and construction of a lunar base during his first space mission, and also took a ride on the newly built space elevator. This luck is undoubtedly strong enough to make anyone envious.
Even though Ye Junmin's own grades are very good, he still believes that he is indeed very lucky.
But because of this, he cherishes this hard-won opportunity even more and hopes that with his good luck, the mission will be successfully completed and a temporary base will be successfully built on the lunar surface.
After listening to what Wu Chuping said, he immediately responded through the communication equipment: "Please rest assured, the command center, astronaut Ye Junmin promises to complete the mission."
The other three astronauts answered similarly.
Time passed minute by second, with the astronauts in the ground station control center car and the hundreds of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room anticipating it, it finally came to 2:30, and Wu Chuping immediately issued the command to start.
Order.
"Start the ladder." The operator repeated the command and decisively pressed the start button.
As the car gradually accelerated its climb, it soon rushed out of the tower and entered the cable track, successfully escaping from the tracking of the ground station equipment.
At the same time, the view from the car in the live broadcast room was also switched to the view from the external camera and Ye Junmin's view, truly achieving a first-person perspective.
When the space agency made the announcement, it had already pointed out that this live broadcast will add a first-person perspective, so that the audience can have a more immersive visual experience. If you use a holographic screen device to watch it, it will almost feel like you are immersed in it.
territory.
The space suit worn by Ye Junmin added this function, so the live broadcast task naturally fell on him.
The only drawback is that the audience in the live broadcast room can no longer see his full body.
Originally, the audience didn't take this matter to heart. They thought that they could live broadcast it more than 100,000 miles overseas, so how could they still care about the viewing angle issue.
It wasn't until I manually switched to Ye Junmin's perspective that I finally understood the meaning of Zhenxiang.
That is simply too delicious!
Almost instantly, the number of comments in the live broadcast room increased several times.
"Damn, I love this perspective!"
"It's a completely immersive experience, okay? How about I give Mr. Xu a kiss first?"
"Kowtow one for me."
"To round things off, I've also walked on the moon. If I can include it in my resume in the future, I'll be proud of my ancestors!"
"Haven't you noticed that there are no lags in the live broadcast room so far? The quantum network is awesome!"
"Finally, it is no longer a secret picture handed down from ancestors. This shows that we have truly reached the top ranks in the world."
In the control center, while Wu Chuping devoted himself to monitoring the climbing status of the car, Xu Lei quietly controlled his consciousness and entered the hall of the Science and Technology Museum to check the changes in influence.
And if you don’t know this, you will be shocked when you see it.
In just a few minutes, the influence increased by tens of thousands of points. Although it was not as fast as the growth rate during the space elevator operation test, it was still beyond expectations.
After all, the audience watching the live broadcast has already repeated it, and the space elevator of this mission only plays a boosting role, so it is normal for the influence to grow slowly.
Anyway, before the start of this live broadcast, Xu Lei's influence gap was still about 300,000. Even if the growth rate of influence will continue to slow down, it will be enough to collect 5 million points to unlock new technological exhibits.
Although the two-hour climbing process is not slow, it is inevitably a bit boring to stare at the live broadcast screen that has not changed much.
Besides, there are still a few hours until dawn, so many viewers choose to catch up on their sleep first.
Because the Shenzhou spacecraft takes several days to fly from low-Earth orbit to lunar orbit, as long as the most critical live broadcast of the moon landing is not missed, the boring schedule is really not very attractive to the audience.
However, there are also many liver emperors who choose to stay up all night until dawn. No matter what, they have to see the astronauts who landed on the moon meet with the astronauts stationed in the space station, and then enter the Shenzhou spacecraft to leave the space station and rush to a specific orbit.
Two hours passed quickly.
The ground station control center finally sounded a report from the Tiangong space station.
"Tiangong reports that the space elevator has arrived successfully and the lunar landing astronauts are entering the space station."
…
"I am astronaut Ye Junmin. We have successfully reunited with space station astronaut Nie Huamao and the others, and now we are applying to enter the Shenzhou spacecraft."
"Permission to enter the Shenzhou spacecraft."
…
"The Shenzhou spacecraft and Tiangong separated successfully and the astronauts are in good condition."
As this report sounded, all the staff in the ground station control center finally relaxed a little. The four astronauts successfully entered the Shenzhou spacecraft. In the next few days as they rushed to the moon, they only needed
By monitoring the flight attitude of the spacecraft and calibrating it in time, the pressure will naturally be much less.
The separation of the main Shenzhou spacecraft and the Tiangong space station is also very important. The separation may not be successful during the process, which will have an impact on both the spacecraft and the space station.
The result that will be faced by then is that the astronauts will return and the moon landing plan will be cancelled.
Fortunately, with the cooperation of the space station astronaut Nie Huamao's ground station control center and the astronauts in the Shenzhou spacecraft, the separation was finally completed successfully.
"Academician Xu, there is nothing going on here right now, you should go and have a rest early." Wu Chuping, who looked obviously much more relaxed, turned around and said to Xu Lei at this time.
After all, a night without sleep is a drain on the body and spirit.
Xu Lei knew that the ground station control center would be much more relaxed in the next few days, so he didn't show off at this time. He nodded directly and said: "Okay, you should go to rest early." After saying that, he walked towards the room outside.
.
After a busy night, the first wave of influence that should be earned has been earned. At this time, I must first regain my energy.
Who told him that after all, his body is still in the category of an ordinary person and cannot be compared with a brain like Xingtong, so he can only rely on sleep.
The Shenzhou spacecraft used for the moon landing this time was modified through the design drawings provided by Xu Lei. The internal space was enough to carry seven astronauts. However, because this moon landing was responsible for the construction of a temporary lunar base, only four were ultimately dispatched.
An astronaut will use the remaining space to load equipment and other supplies needed for the base.
Since the overall performance was much higher than that of the previous Shenzhou series spacecraft, the process of changing orbits to the moon was very smooth, and the final time it took was shorter than expected.
…
A few days later.
All the staff, including Xu Lei, gathered again at the ground station control center. If you observe carefully, you can see excitement on everyone's faces.
Because today the dream of five thousand years will come true.
"How is the situation now?" Xu Lei, who had just walked in from outside, arrived at Wu Chuping and asked concerned questions.
Wu Chuping immediately replied: "The Shenzhou spacecraft is currently flying around the moon. It is expected to reach the target area in two hours, and then the astronauts will land on the lunar surface in the lunar module."
"Great, I believe everyone has been waiting for this day for too long." Hearing this, Xu Lei nodded and couldn't hide his excitement.
Since ancient times, both ancient and modern people have had deep feelings for the moon. It is the place where wanderers miss their hometown. It is the place where everyone yearns for the myth and legend of Chang'e flying to the moon. In short, they want to go there.
The idea of seeing the moon has not gone out for five thousand years.
Even with the development and progress of modern scientific and technological civilization, this idea has become stronger.
Today, the dream has been turned into reality, and under the great expectations of the global audience, we have actually set foot on the moon.
But at this moment, Wu Chuping looked embarrassed, and then said with some worry: "But we discovered the Orion spacecraft, and it is estimated that their astronauts have reached the lunar surface in the lunar module."
When Xu Lei saw that Wu Chuping was worried about this, a disdainful smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he comforted him very domineeringly.
"Just monitor their movements. As for our landing on the moon as usual, this mission is about who can stay on the lunar surface longer. There is no advantage in arriving first."
Everyone understands that in this lunar landing mission, both parties are aiming to build a temporary base on the lunar surface. It is not about who sets foot on the moon first. Therefore, the most important thing is to see how long their respective astronauts can stay on the moon. This is related to
Construction progress of the lunar base.
With Xu Lei's words, Wu Chuping's expression immediately returned to its original state, and he waited patiently for the spacecraft to reach the target area.
As for the live broadcast room that took place after a few days, the excitement has almost reached its peak at this time, and everyone is waiting for this shocking moment.
"We're finally going to the moon. I watched the live broadcast for several days, and I didn't even turn off the toilet."
"So excited!"
"Today will be our home court."
"I don't know if there is Chang'e on the moon. I'll wait and see if I actually see it."
"Where did the elementary school students come from? There are obviously only rabbits on the moon."
"Who do you think will step on the lunar surface first? This is definitely a milestone step in the history of our aerospace development!"
Chapter completed!
