Vol 2 Chapter 1274: Huge umbrella flower blooming in the sky
The airdrop experiment landing site is located in the depths of the desert next door about 50 kilometers northwest of the base. The terrain here is relatively flat, which is very conducive to the airdrop experiment and the final return capsule recovery operation.
By the time Wu Hao and the others arrived, the ground experiment team at the landing site was already waiting, and all the work was basically ready.
Generally speaking, there will be no problems in this experiment. However, for safety reasons, they did not enter the core area of the landing field, but were on a hillside about one kilometer away from the landing field.
An observatory has been established here, and various observation instruments have been erected on it.
At the same time, the ground search and recovery convoy is also ready and ready to go.
In addition, there are multiple drones on the simple take-off and landing platform not far away. Before the experiment officially starts, these drones will be released. It is used to search and observe the landing situation of the return cabin, and the relevant pictures will be transmitted to several large high-definition screens on the observation platform in real time.
Wu Hao picked up a high-powered telescope and carefully observed the flat landing field under the hillside in front of them. After watching carefully, he put down the telescope and asked Zhou Xiangming on the side.
"Have you checked the landing site carefully?"
Zhou Xiangming nodded when he heard the words: "In the morning, people checked it again and irradiated it with infrared thermal imaging detection equipment. It was confirmed that there were no people and some large animals in the landing site.
We have set up guards to patrol around the entire test site to ensure that someone enters it by mistake, and our drones will also patrol and investigate at all times. Once a situation is discovered, it will be synchronized immediately and processed in time.
If it is too late to deal with, then we will promptly stop the experiment. "
"That's good." Wu Hao smiled satisfied after hearing this.
"001, this is Phoenix, our aircraft has entered the sky over the experimental landing field, please give instructions."
At this time, a radio call from the crew came from the speaker.
Zhou Xiangming looked at Wu Hao after hearing the words, Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand: "What should we do, so we are. Today we mainly see with our eyes, and don't interfere with the whole experiment process and ignore us."
"Yes!" Zhou Xiangming showed a smile, and then walked to the busy Guo Yulong over there.
Wu Hao, he greeted Director Tian and Yang Fan on the side and said, "Come on, let's sit down and talk."
"Okay." When everyone heard his greeting, they nodded and sat down with a smile.
"Mr. Wu, we are all very curious. In the future, we will really say to you, can we ordinary people have a space trip that just walks away?" Director Tian asked Wu Hao with a smile.
Wu Hao smiled after hearing this question, and then replied: "This is certain, and I am unwavering about it.
However, how long will it take to achieve this is hard to say.
may be soon, just like our commercial civil aviation, in less than a hundred years, it has developed so rapidly and has become the main means of transportation for our human society.
makes it possible for each of us to afford a plane ticket, a plane, and just like you said, take a walk-and-go trip.
Maybe, this process will be longer. After all, the difficulty of aerospace technology is here, and the cost is also here. If there is no better aerospace technology, it may be difficult to realize this ideal.
In our foreseeable future, that is, in the next few decades, I believe that more and more commercial space travel will be open to the public, and the round-trip ticket fees will gradually decrease.
And I think it will gradually decrease to a level that a considerable number of us can afford. And not like now, space travel is just a luxury that rich people can enjoy. "
At this point, Wu Hao smiled at Director Tian: "In fact, we have been working hard for this goal, and we plan to reduce the price of space travel tickets to around one million.
In other words, as long as you spend about one million, you can take a wonderful space trip. "
Director Tian looked at Wu Hao and nodded: "The price of one million is indeed not expensive, but for many people, I am afraid it is still not affordable."
Hearing what Director Tian said, Wu Hao shrugged his shoulders and showed a helpless look: "Sorry, with our current ability, what we can do is only to this extent.
There is no way. The cost of entering space in this way is too high. "
Regarding Wu Hao's words, Director Tian nodded and said: "Yes, it is too high. In this way, this million is indeed very cheap, but everyone can have this opportunity to try it once. "
While they were chatting, a lot of voices came from the radio. Wu Hao and the others were chatting while waiting for the airdrop experiment to begin.
"001, Phoenix report, our plane is about to fly over the landing field, altitude 5000, request to be released."
"Phoenix, this is 001, the landing field is in good condition and can be put!"
"Phoenix received, ready to release!"
"The hatch opens!"
"Arrive at the scheduled area, the goods will be released!"
"The goods are safely released from the warehouse and the delivery is complete."
"Report that the return cabin has been safely out of the warehouse, and the guide umbrella is thrown out."
Papa Papa...
Everyone present applauded upon hearing this.
Wu Hao and the others immediately picked up the telescope and looked towards the sky. However, because the distance is too far, the picture of the telescope shakes so badly that it is hard to see.
So, they put down the binoculars and looked directly at the big screen. At this moment, the picture on the big screen has been changed to that of the ground observation equipment.
I saw in the picture, the return capsule was rapidly descending in the air, and a relatively small white guiding umbrella was hung on the top of the return capsule. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"The main umbrella is thrown out, it starts to unfold, it unfolds normally!"
Following the report, everyone saw the big screen and returned to the top of the cabin. The three main umbrellas were suddenly thrown out, and then quickly unfolded, forming three huge mushrooms in the air.
At the same time, under the action of these three main parachutes, the descending speed of the return capsule has also been significantly slowed down. The entire return capsule began to fall towards the landing field.
said it was falling. In fact, the entire landing speed is relatively fast, but it is controlled within an acceptable allowable speed.
As the three main parachutes opened, everyone now let out a sigh of relief. Because as long as the main umbrella is opened, it means that the entire throwing experiment has been half successful.
Next, what everyone is waiting for is the performance of the return cabin in the final landing stage. Because this stage is also the most dangerous stage, a little carelessness will also lead to serious consequences.
First, the return cabin must be at a certain distance from the ground, and the eight recoil engines scattered inside the four-sided package of the return cabin will ignite immediately. Swiftly slow down the return cabin so that it can reach an allowable speed for a safe landing.
This is not over yet, because the return cabin is about to land. The bottom of the return capsule will quickly inflate several air bags as a buffer for the landing of the return capsule, so as to cushion the return capsule and the astronauts in the return capsule, so that they will receive less impact.
