Chapter 456 Space Station Construction

"Have you noticed that the Arc Light Group is taking more and more actions, especially in aerospace? It feels so frequent, and now it is live broadcasting again."

"No, I think there are so few. It's best to have one episode a day. Watching their live broadcast is almost like watching a science fiction movie. It's so exciting."

"What are we doing today? Is this Eagle-class transport aircraft numbered X-YS01 going to be dispatched again?"

"Didn't you read the announcement? Today is the completion of the first phase of the Tiangong Space Station, and this "Diao" class experimental transport aircraft is the main force."

"Why doesn't Mao give his transport plane an official name? Doesn't the experimental model have the right to be a "machine"? And I think it has been transported so many times. Why is it still an experimental model?"

"Whether it is an experimental model or not, Arc Light Aerospace has the final say. Let's just watch the live broadcast. Look, the transport plane is coming out."

“Every time I watch it, I feel so majestic and domineering. I really want to buy one and convert it into a luxurious palace, and then buy two more Falcons to fly with me as wingmen.”

"emmmm... The divine trench is coming, and the idlers should retreat!"

The driver this time is still an experienced driver. In such an important event, only an experienced driver can complete the task flawlessly and rely on his rich experience to solve problems after encountering them.

However, this time the only drivers were Zhu Heshu and Zhang Zijian, but the seat next to them was empty, and this time it was finally Zhang Zijian's turn to be the main driver, in a global live broadcast.

"X-YS01 has been confirmed and requested to take off." Zhang Zijian said calmly.

"The route is normal and you can take off."

"clear."

With a huge roar, X-YS01 took off again in full view of everyone, but this time it did not accelerate to the southeast, but turned to the north.

The audience still knows this, because it has been stated in the announcement that in order to save time and transportation costs, X-YS01 will land directly at a predetermined military airport and then transport the space station experimental module.

However, when the camera couldn't capture the plane and the scene moved to the cabin, the audience noticed something was different. There were only two people sitting in the standard three-person cockpit, leaving one seat free.

This was not mentioned in the announcement, so the audience was speculating about this.

However, while the audience was watching the excitement, various radar stations in the country were not idle. This time, the aerospace transport plane did not head towards the sea after taking off. Instead, it flew in China's airspace and headed north directly to arrive. Jinmen City.

This route will pass through economically developed coastal areas, and the final landing point is only one step away from the capital. This is a big deal, so the radar bases in each area are basically tracking the entire process, and are even ready for missile attacks.

Cooperation is one thing, security is another.

Dong Chen knew that, not to mention that the earth was now under his satellite surveillance, and no dangerous actions could escape No. 1's eyes.

Even if there is no number one, it can be seen from the usual actions of preventing Dong Chen's forces from approaching the capital. He has not fully disclosed his organizational information, so how can the country trust him.

But Dong Chen didn't tell anyone. He just wanted Arc Light Aerospace to carry out the mission according to the plan of both parties. As long as there was no attack posture on his side, their radar monitoring would be useless.

Dong Chen felt that their efforts were in vain, but those at the radar base did not feel that because the information they obtained was too useful.

Under their tracking, the Eagle-class transport aircraft immediately reached the stratosphere after a few minutes of climbing. Then it began to accelerate after reaching the predetermined altitude, reaching ten times the speed of sound in one minute. .

It stabilized at ten times the speed of sound and did not accelerate or increase in altitude. It flew at ten times the speed of sound for five minutes before approaching Jinmen City, and then began to slow down and descend.

By the time it landed steadily at the designated airport, it took less than twelve minutes from departure to now. This was the result they got, and the result was astonishing.

This is just because the distance is too close, so it only flies within the atmosphere. If it enters orbit, it will be faster. It is just that it is too close from Shanghai to Jinmen City. In addition, the time for takeoff acceleration and landing deceleration is only ten minutes. Get ahead.

If it enters orbit, the time is too short to operate, it is easy to overfly, and it is too wasteful of fuel to be economical.

There is also a live broadcast slot in this military airport, which captures the landing of the plane and the loading of cargo. It also allows the audience to see the scene of the aerospace transport aircraft loading cargo.

Of course, the things photographed were all for permission to be photographed, and the things displayed outside were not very confidential, but this could also be regarded as a welfare for the audience.

In the country of China, life is not easy for military enthusiasts. It is difficult to even see, let alone touch, the exposed things, which makes them happy for a while.

During the loading process of cargo, neither Zhang Zijian nor Zhu Heshu got off the plane. Instead, a man in a spacesuit walked out of a building on one side and boarded the plane.

And this one is actually a female astronaut, whom many people know.

Because there are not many female astronauts in China, and she has already entered space.

"Is this Wang Ping? The youngest female astronaut in China?"

"Yes, that's her. It turns out that position was reserved for her, but why is she taking a plane into space? Does she want to stay up there?"

"No way? Isn't there an unmanned test after the space station is completed? Wouldn't it be a good idea to have astronauts stationed there right away?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's to confirm that the space station cabin is in place in the sky? It's not like a certain aerospace company. The customer said it wasn't sent up, but they said it was sent up. The two parties were fighting each other over a satellite. "

Wang Ping entered the cockpit and sat down and said, "The backup astronaut Wang Ping is already in place, please give instructions."

Zhang Zijian turned around and said with a smile, "Colonel Wang Ping, don't be so serious. Have you read all the information that Arclight Aerospace sent you before?"

"I've finished reading it, and I can recite it without writing it," Wang Ping said.

"...Okay, just remember it," Zhang Zijian suddenly felt a little ashamed. Compared with the country's astronauts, he and others were indeed a little wasteful, "Actually, X-YS01 is easier to operate than domestic spacecrafts. We A live broadcast will come in soon, just remember not to say anything confidential."

Zhu Heshu next to him also said, "By the way, Colonel Wang Ping, don't you still want to take a class in space? Today is a good opportunity. The number of viewers of our live broadcast has reached 600 million."

After hearing this number, Wang Ping was finally stunned and said, "Are there so many people?"

"Of course," Zhang Zijian confirmed, "and they are all good students who are "waiting for food". You can just introduce them to the Tiangong Space Station that we are about to complete in the first phase."

"No problem," Wang Ping said with a smile.

When X-YS01 broke out of the atmosphere and entered the orbit of the space station again, and saw the two cabins of the Tiangong Space Station, Wang Ping started her own course. With the help of the translation system, she used her special language to teach everyone before the live broadcast Introduced China’s Tiangong Space Station.

As the aerospace transport aircraft reached its predetermined position, its cargo compartment door slowly opened.

The two-section test module of the space station was slowly released by the robotic arm. After being placed at the designated location, Arc Light Aerospace completed its transportation mission.

Then the Chinese space agency opened the authority of the test cabin, turned on the micro engine on the cabin, constantly adjusted the position of the test cabin, and used its own automatic docking technology to steadily combine all the cabins together to form a A cross.

Since then, China's originally planned Tiangong Space Station has been completed.

When the Chinese audience had already started cheering, two more balls flew out of the cargo hold of the transport plane, and the cheering scene stopped for a moment: What the hell is this?

The balls flew out slowly, one flew over the space transport plane and the space station, and the other flew towards the space station.

Before anyone could react, the live broadcast screen was changed and replaced by two screens.

One can see the space plane and the space station, and the other is constantly approaching the space station.

Official perspective of the two spheres.

Not many people paid attention to the perspective that was constantly approaching the space station. Instead, the photo of the aerospace plane and the Tiangong Space Station attracted a lot of attention.

We usually look at each other, but we have never compared them. In this comparison, the Tiangong Space Station is not as big as the aerospace transport aircraft.

If this is the case, then the construction part of Arc Light Aerospace will definitely not be small.
