Chapter 484 Our armor was shattered into pieces

The sound of metal collision kept coming, and occasionally there was the harsh sound of metal friction, as well as the vibration and shaking caused by the constant collision of space junk.

Fortunately, the tonnage of the space station is large enough, the shaking is not very violent, and it is strong enough. Although there are various discomforts, there is no need to worry about the space station being smashed like in the movie.

The dim light, which was originally caused by the power outage, continued to flicker with the impact. This did not provide as much light as the monitor, and also illuminated the safe room in blue.

Li Danwen and Camera Zhang were too nervous to speak, but Yang Nianming was still staring at the data on the monitor.

Seeing Li Danwen and Camera Zhang sitting next to them, holding on to their seat belts and swaying with the space station, Yang Nianming said to them, "Don't be nervous. So far, there have been no reports of damage to the bulkhead, just the solar cells." The plate was 34% damaged. The track was slightly deflected by the impact, but the engine was still working to maintain the track and orientation."

Knowing that Yang Nianming was adjusting the atmosphere, and there was only the sound of metal banging and no talking, the atmosphere was indeed a bit solemn, so Li Danwen was angry and said, "Squad leader Yang, I...we are either nervous, or the shaking is too violent, which makes it a bit uncomfortable. "

Shaking a lot?

Yang Nianming felt that this was not as violent as when an airplane encountered air currents or when a car ran cross-country. However, considering that this was their first time in space, the shaking was not comparable to the shaking of airplanes and cars. There was endless space outside.

So he didn't expose it and said directly, "Now it's because it hasn't been built yet and the tonnage is still a little small, so it will shake when it hits. After the space station is completed, the weight of nearly 6,000 tons will not be so easy to hit."

"Yes, we did our homework when we came up. It seems that all the items in space now add up to only a few thousand tons. So... hmm, it seems to have stopped?"

Cameraman Zhang was also impressed, but before he finished speaking, he found that the space station was no longer shaking, and the flashing lights had stabilized.

"It seems true," Yang Nianming turned his eyes to the screen again and found that the large army had passed by, leaving only scattered small fragments behind.

The operational data graphs they use internally are much more detailed than those published. The level of detail tracked by No. 1 is simply outrageous. It was accurate to three centimeters in such a short period of time.

In fact, it is not the size of the garbage that has some impact on the Xintian Palace Space Station, but the material of the garbage. Those aluminum alloy things can only make a sound when they hit it. They are too soft for the shell material.

Only some scraps of titanium alloy or other hard materials will leave traces on the outer shell of the new space station.

"You guys stay here, don't move, I'll go take a look."

Yang Nianming first looked at the surveillance pictures in various places, then turned on his seat belt and stood up. He said in the call channel, "Liu Quan, are you okay over there?"

"It's okay, squad leader. The collision seems to have stopped. The data shows that the debris cloud has basically passed. However, there are no new orders from the ground yet. I don't know if it is signal interference." Liu Quan on the other side replied.

"Well, it's fine," Yang Nianming said as he walked out. "I've also shown that it has passed here. I won't wait for instructions from the ground and come out to check the damage."

"Okay, monitor, we'll be out right away." Liu Quan replied.

Walking in the wide corridor wearing electromagnetic shoes, Yang Nianming felt that it was okay here. There was nothing here, so it was still very neat.

When I came to the living area, I met Liu Quan and the others. Everyone was safe, and the living area was fine too.

Since there is no gravity here, most of the equipment and things are fixed, and some are placed in special cabinets and boxes. The shaking just now means that some things that are not very solid are floating up.

"Space station, this is the ground command center. The debris swarm has passed. Please confirm the actual situation. How are you doing there now?"

While they were checking, the ground communication suddenly rang in the communication channel.

When Yang Nianming heard this voice, he quickly came to the video monitor and turned on the monitor. He immediately saw Dong Chen and Bai Hongxian, as well as the extra Mr. Sun and several supervisors. It seemed that they had also rushed over.

"Chairman, President Sun, and Commander Bai have confirmed that the debris cloud has passed and we are checking the damage."

"Yang Nianming, is everyone okay? What's the specific situation?" Dong Chen asked there.

"Chairman, everyone is fine. The situation is not very clear yet. Some of the solar panels on the front side can be seen in some surveillances as being scrapped. The window protection panels have not been opened yet, and the external situation cannot be seen. To be specific, we need to send a robot. Go out and take a look." Yang Nianming replied.

"You are like this, Yang Nianming," Dong Chen thought for a moment and said, "You just send the robot out. We also have a live broadcast here. We will directly broadcast the post-disaster situation."

Before Yang Nianming could speak, Sun Hao next to Dong Chen said, "Chairman, is this too risky? After all, the situation has not been confirmed yet. Is it appropriate to let the outside world know directly?"

"Don't take risks. The fact that Yang Nianming and the others are alive now is the best proof. Moreover, we have not received any cabin depressurization alarm here, which means that the space debris has not penetrated the outer shell of the space station at all." Dong Chen shook his head and said.

"And now people from the outside world should be eager to know the results."

What Dong Chen said was not unreasonable. Since Arc Light Space released the operational information, the countries that were in orbit began to move, and the time when the Tiangong Space Station was hit was known to the whole world.

When the Xintian Palace space station was hit, the whole world was sweating.

Although it has only been built for more than a month, it has already surpassed the International Space Station and become the heaviest and largest man-made facility in space. If it turns into space junk and lies in the orbit of the earth, what will happen to the earth’s aerospace industry? That's enough.

Not to mention that there is an International Space Station underneath it.

Just when people thought that the earth's aerospace industry was about to cool down, the signal from the Xintian Palace Space Station was still flickering there. Just when people were confused, the black live broadcast screen at Arc Light Technology came back on. .

The darkness of space is still so profound, especially since the audience knows what is happening, and feels that this kind of darkness is the kind of darkness that penetrates people.

But as the camera slowly turned, a huge man-made building appeared in the audience's eyes against the background of the earth.

It's... it's okay? !

After the camera zoomed in, they found that although it had not disintegrated, it was still scarred. Especially the outer wall on the side that received the impact was full of bumps and scratches, and the fragile solar panels were even more damaged.

The side is much better, and the basic version of the Tiangong Space Station and the two original living cabins that are protected behind are completely fine.

This is nothing short of a miracle.

At this time, everyone knew that the material used by Arc Light Aerospace to build the new space station must be extraordinary. It was not the common space station shell material, so it could withstand such an impact.

And the damage is not big, and there is nothing wrong with it internally. As long as the damaged solar panel is replaced, it can run perfectly again.

But why didn’t Arclight Aerospace announce it to the public? The materials used have not been disclosed so far, and people can only understand this as a trade secret.

Since this time the debris cloud actually moved downward from a slightly higher orbit, especially under the influence of the initial impact force, it moved downward faster. Therefore, after it was safe, the New Tiangong Space Station took the old version of the space station to The higher orbit has undergone orbit changes, and as long as it leaves the large-scale debris cloud, it is very safe.

The International Space Station below suffered a disaster. Their movement speed was too late to move, and they knew they couldn't resist, so they had no choice but to let the astronauts enter the manned spacecraft and abandon the space station.
