Chapter 708 Triumph! (3/3)
Chapter 708 Triumph! (33)
The NASA engineers guessed right.
Compared with other re-entry spacecraft, it is a bit outrageous that the auspicious auspicious can have more fuel at its disposal when it returns.
With 21% of the working fluid remaining, it may not be enough to fly from the surface to low-Earth orbit, but there is no problem in accelerating the spacecraft to the second cosmic acceleration to leave the Earth-Moon system and go straight to Mars.
After entering the "landing section" at an altitude of 20 kilometers from the "re-entry section" of 100 kilometers, the speed of the Xiangrui has been reduced to Mach 7 under the mixed effect of air resistance and the engine. And at this moment, the position is already in the airspace of the Western Regions of China.
At this speed, there is basically no suspense about a successful landing.
Russian Space Agency.
Looking at the fast-moving green dot on the radar screen, a look of disappointment flashed across the face of the man in a black suit with a dignified face.
If the auspicious ship fell in Russia or the Pacific Ocean, he certainly wouldn't mind "helping" the Chinese. It's just a pity, it seems that God did not give him a chance to lend a hand to his "old friends".
There is nothing left to see.
At this height and speed, even he is confident that he can drive this thing back.
"Put the Pacific Fleet off standby."
Wearing a Russian military uniform, the man standing next to him stood at attention and gave a military salute.
"Yes."
...
A faint blue arc emerges from the clouds, as if coming from a colorful auspicious cloud, and the silver auspicious number appears in people's field of vision.
At this moment, the Jinling Space Launch Center and the ground headquarters are already cheering.
With the sound of "the launch mission was a complete success", seeing the chief engineer Hou Guang standing in front of the console take off the headset on his head, the staff in the headquarters suddenly seemed to hold their breath for a long time. , burst into cheers of excitement.
In the past 24 hours, they almost fell to the ground in shifts and stuck to their posts. Many people closed their eyes for less than two hours, and some people had never slept from the beginning.
After all, this is the maiden flight of the Auspicious.
For them, this aerospace plane, which embodies the world's most advanced fusion technology and electric propulsion technology, is like their child.
Not to mention, Professor Lu is still on it.
Many people even threw their headsets on the table and ran from the command room to the launch site outside to greet their heroes.
Chen Yushan, who has been standing here since she came here last night, has tears in her eyes at this moment.
After worrying about not sleeping all night, I finally came back safely.
Standing next to the door of the command room with a portable medical box on her shoulder, Yan Yan glanced at the woman, and then at Wang Peng, who was also standing by the door, and couldn't help teasing.
"That guy, has it caused you a lot of trouble this time?"
"It's alright," Wang Peng sighed and reached out to touch the cigarette in his pocket, but suddenly thought that there is no smoking here, so he silently put his hand back, "The above also knows that this guy's affairs are difficult to deal with, so they didn't embarrass me too much. "
At most, he just trained him on the phone.
Yan Yan glanced at him in disbelief.
"That's it? No punishment? I don't believe it."
"Really not..." Wang Peng hesitated, then made a helpless expression, "Okay, maybe the year-end bonus is gone again... To be honest, after staying by his side for so long, I didn't expect this thing. Son."
Yan Yan shook her head with a smile, looked at the woman named Chen Yushan, and followed her footsteps to the door.
"Let's go, let's go too... I hope he didn't make himself paralyzed this time."
Yang Guangbiao, who had been silent for a while, coughed and said.
"Forget it, I beg you, stop crows."
He still remembers what happened last time at the controllable fusion project site.
...
Engine off.
The landing gear was lowered, hitting the ground hard, carrying the landing shuttle, and taxiing along the runway.
Immediately after, the two pairs of parachutes were ejected backwards, and the string in Nie Yun's heart, which was taut to the limit, finally relaxed slowly.
With his hands off the control handle, he leaned against the seat as if he had lost his strength. Only then did he feel that his back was completely soaked. Only he himself knows exactly what kind of responsibility and what kind of pressure he bears during these 24+2 hours.
But all this finally ushered in the final victory.
Suddenly, he saw out of the corner of his eye, those people running towards the plane.
There are ground crews from the launch center, engineers from the headquarters, and reporters from CTV and so on…
A smile finally appeared on his tired face, and he suddenly recalled the day when the J-20 first flew.
"It's like a dream..."
Unlike Nie Yun, Lu Zhou did not spend his time on sentimentality.
Having left the passenger seat, he was already standing in front of the porthole, staring at the wing outside the window with a thoughtful expression.
Noticing the expression on his face, Nie Yun asked casually.
"Any questions?"
"It's not a big problem," Lu Zhou continued after thinking for a moment, "but the design of the wing and engine still seems to need to be readjusted."
"...I think it's already pretty good."
"But it can be done better," Lu Zhou said with a smile, withdrawing his gaze from the window, "Sure enough, we still have to fly along to find out."
Nie Yun: "..."
Nie Han: "..."
Hearing his words, the two always had an ominous feeling...
...
The three took off their spacesuits with mutual help.
The moment they stepped out of the hatch, the three heroes were immediately surrounded by an excited crowd.
Leaving the interview to the brothers and sisters Nie Yun and Nie Han, Lu Zhou left the auspicious ship. Just when he was about to go to the ground command to ask Hou Guang to talk about his views on the improved design of the Xiangrui, he saw a man with deep bags under his eyes and a haggard face walking up.
Lu Zhou stared at him for a while before speaking in an uncertain tone.
"... Director Li?"
"it's me!"
Lu Zhou: "...Uh, why are you so haggard?"
Could it be that he flew a few laps in the sky, but it has actually been a few years on the ground?
Not scientific...
The wrinkles were crowded together, and Director Li sighed with a sad face.
"I'm not worried about you!"
Just when he was about to say something, another old man walked over.
As soon as he saw this face, Lu Zhou immediately shook his head.
Yuan Huanmin?
Hold the grass!
Why is this guy here?
Just when Lu Zhou was having a headache whether to pretend he didn't see him and walked away, he saw the old man walking towards him and grabbed his hand, tears streaming down his face.
"I misunderstood you... allow me to apologize to you!"
Lu Zhou: "...???"
What misunderstanding? !
What is the situation? ? ?
However, before Lu Zhou could recover from the confusion, a beautiful figure suddenly rushed out of the crowd and hugged him.
"Great...you're fine!"
Seeing this scene from a distance, Yan Yan, who was walking from the control tower, suddenly stopped.
Although she was relieved to see that the protected object was safe and sound.
But for some reason, she suddenly felt a little stomachache...
