Chapter 645 The Cold Universe

Prosperous weather!

People can't help but think, maybe the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty at the beginning is probably like this!
Time rolls forward, and before you know it, January 2030, 1 has come. The year 1 has turned over, and the first day of 2029 is ushered in, which is also a page of the fourth decade of the 2030st century.

On this day, people ushered in the seven-day long holiday of New Year's Day, but the focus of the news media is not on the grand tourism of the New Year's Day holiday, but on China's third manned moon landing.

"Dear audience friends, what we see now is the "Shenlong" aerospace plane K1 independently developed by our country. This is the world's first aerospace plane. In the past two years, the "Shenlong" aerospace plane has been completed. A series of tests have been carried out, and various test flight missions have been completed perfectly, including ten space test flights."

"The third manned landing on the moon this time will be the last test flight of the 'Shenlong' aerospace plane. After completing this test flight project, the 'Shenlong' aerospace plane will officially enter service."

The host of the live program was introducing it with a smile on his face. At this time, it could be seen on the screen that the "Shenlong" aerospace plane was undergoing the final inspection in the cabin.

And the 7 astronauts who are ready to go are going to the expedition ceremony. Qin Yuanqing, Yang Liwei and other leaders of the "Double Ring Space Station" project all went to the flight test center to see the 7 astronauts off. of great importance.

This is not just a test flight mission, nor is it just the third manned moon landing, but also because once this manned moon landing is a complete success, the next step is the second "space plane" to enter service and be delivered to space. force.

It can be said that this third manned moon landing is of great significance. Although it is not a milestone, it is definitely a very important space mission.

"What we see now is that seven astronauts are holding an expedition ceremony. Attending the expedition ceremony are academician Qin Yuanqing, a famous scientist in my country, Yang Liwei, the No.7 aerospace officer, and Zhang Tianqin, director of CNSA. Heroes practice!" Seeing Qin Yuanqing and others drinking with the astronauts, the host said passionately: "The stars and the sea always need heroes and warriors to set out to open up the road, and only later can people walk on the broad road."

"Just like Mr. Lu Xun's famous saying, there is no road in the world, and the more people travel, there will be a road! Similarly, the stars and the sea have no road, and the astronauts have traveled a lot, and the road will come out!" Host Said.

"Now, we can see that the astronauts are taking firm steps. They are paying tribute to the staff and the audience who are watching the program. They are about to embark on a journey to the sea of ​​stars!"

"We have seen that Yang Fang, the head of the flight test team, signed his name on the inspection result form. They controlled by voice, and the gangway of the aerospace plane was lowered. They walked into the aerospace plane through the gangway. They came to the pilot cabin."

"Viewers and friends, the exciting moment is coming. The aerospace plane starts to taxi and is about to leave the cabin. The time of this trip is 7:00 pm. The snow is flying and the northwest wind is howling, but it can't be stopped' In the footsteps of Shenlong' space plane."

Just as people across the country were watching the live broadcast of the third manned moon landing, Qin Yuanqing, who was at the test flight center, was wearing a down jacket with a serious expression on his face, watching the aerospace plane gliding in the heavy snow.

"Wish you guys good luck!"

Qin Yuanqing silently thought to himself.

This time, the "Shenlong" aerospace plane K1 will arrive at the moon 8 hours after takeoff, which will set a record for the fastest journey from the earth to the moon. It's been an incredible time.

After all, the intercontinental air flight takes more than 8 hours.

But now, it is directly from the earth to the moon.

In the heavy snow, the northwestern wind howled, and the "Shenlong" aerospace plane roared, the anti-gravity engine was turned on, the "Shenlong" aerospace plane flew into the air, and then the plasma engine was turned on, and a light blue arc was seen In a flash, the "Shenlong" aerospace plane has rushed to the sky and disappeared into the long night. Compared with the flames at this time of rocket launch, the plasma engine of the "Shenlong" aerospace plane is undoubtedly so insignificant that it People want to use a telescope to see, but they can't see it.

Qin Yuanqing watched the "Shenlong" aerospace plane disappear into the long night and flew towards the starry sky, feeling very complicated in his heart.

Over the past year or so, aerospace aircraft have released a total of 38 satellites in space, including military satellites, meteorological satellites, communication satellites, etc., all of which are led by the state, and the transport capacity vacated by this department has enabled Wenchang to launch Center, Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, Xichang Satellite Launch Center, etc. have all switched to launching civilian satellites, and this has led to the joy of commercial companies that originally begged grandpa to tell grandma to send their own satellites into space.

Another result is that the cost of commercial satellite launches has been further reduced to cabbage prices, so that in comparison, commercial satellite launches in other countries are not only unprofitable, but also lose money once launched.

And Huaxia Private Aerospace Corporation has also thrived in the past few years. It can already launch small and medium-sized satellites, and the launch cost is lower than the international satellite launch cost. Many people suddenly find that communication is getting better and better, and watching programs is getting more and more convenient. , not because of anything else, but because they all have their own satellites.

And in China, the number of satellites in space keeps increasing, and one advantage is that people suddenly find that the weather forecast they receive is getting more and more accurate, and the accuracy is not at the city level, but has been raised to the county level .

Beidou satellite navigation covers the whole world. Whether it is on land or at sea, the accuracy of Beidou satellite navigation is the highest. Many people can even see some overseas military bases clearly according to the Beidou satellite map.

In many developing countries, their own countries are unable to launch satellites, cannot manufacture satellites, and cannot afford satellites. They simply rent satellites directly. payment.

It can be said that with the second aerospace plane in service, the Chinese military can deploy hundreds of satellites in space a year even without rocket launches. Even if the satellites are destroyed, they can be re-deployed in a short period of time. .

Of course, the latest military satellites are undoubtedly equipped with 'energy shield' devices. Although they can only be activated for a short time, they undoubtedly improve the survivability of the satellites.

When the aerospace plane broke through the sky, it quickly broke through the atmosphere and entered space. After a short period of adaptation in space, the engine of the aerospace plane continued to emit light blue arcs and performed a rapid orbit change.

When a rocket launches a spacecraft, the fuel of the engine must be considered, but the aerospace plane does not need it. The fuel of the aerospace plane is very sufficient, so that it can do whatever it wants.

It can directly rely on the engine of the aerospace plane to accelerate without the help of the rotation speed of the earth, from the first cosmic speed to the second cosmic speed, and continuously fly towards the moon, although this orbital migration is not the most fuel-efficient , But it can make the aerospace plane reach the moon the fastest.

After entering the earth-moon migration orbit, the "Shenlong" aerospace plane in this earth-moon migration orbit is like a solitary boat in the sea, bearing the lonely baptism of the cold and dark universe.

It was pitch black outside the window, a dead silence and coldness completely different from the night on Earth.This kind of darkness seems to come from another world, as if diving ten kilometers under the sea, staring at the invisible abyss below.

Many scientists believe that the need to invent the hibernation capsule is not only because of the short lifespan of human beings. With the hibernation capsule, human beings can waste unnecessary time on boring and meaningless slow journeys, but also because in space travel, It's not so beautiful, some are just dead silent and cold. Even if the astronaut's psychological quality is much higher than that of ordinary people, he will still suffer from mental illness during the long journey to the universe.

"Captain, is the moon beautiful?" A team member suddenly asked.

Others looked at Yang Fang one after another. Among them, only Yang Fang went to the moon.

"How beautiful is it? From the sky, the surface of the moon is full of pits and craters, and they are ugly!" Yang Fang rolled her eyes: "In comparison, the earth is beautiful!"

Even so, Yang Fang couldn't help saying that when she first landed on the moon, she also had very beautiful fantasies about the moon. When she arrived at the moon, the real moon directly shattered all her beautiful fantasies.

"Everyone can take a break now. After 6 hours, the aerospace plane will slow down! In about 8 hours, we will reach the lunar orbit. After releasing 2 communication satellites on the ancient lunar road, we will directly land on the surface of the moon." Yang Fang Said to the players.

"Break time, 6 hours, 'Kuafu' will wake everyone up after 6 hours!" Yang Fang was very calm.

Compared with the "Chang'e" spacecraft, which was the first manned spacecraft, the aerospace plane is undoubtedly much more comfortable, at least there is no constant feeling here, it can be like sleeping on the earth, there will be no difference, as long as Put on the blindfold, don't think that you are in the dark universe, then you will feel like you are in the earth.

When I was on the "Chang'e" spacecraft, it was not so easy to sleep, because I had to contact the ground command center at any time and had to constantly report data, but now these can be handed over to artificial intelligence.They only need to wake up, stare at the data and contact the ground command center during the most critical deceleration period.

Yang Fang went to her personal lounge and made video calls with her family members. Now that they have the condition, even in space, they can make video calls with their family members at any time. They only need to apply for approval. After all, the earth-moon communication technology has long been With each passing day, it is not comparable to what it was ten years ago.

　The third update will be updated at night, and I will go out to play in the afternoon
