Chapter 1078: The Second Experiment Was Successful
Chapter 1078 The second experiment was successful
After Political Commissar Li shook hands with Zhao Zhongyao, he patted Zhao Zhongyao's shoulder again and said, "Zhongyao, as soon as I hear what you say, I can't wait to see what this space recovery capsule looks like!"
"Haha, well, then you can take a look! I'm sure you've never seen this before. Zhao Zhongyao said, and took Political Commissar Li to the truck loaded with the recovery cabin.
Political Commissar Li looked at it curiously as soon as he saw that there was a large round iron ball on top of this truck, which looked very strange.
"COSCO, this is the recovery pod you developed. Political Commissar Li looked around the circular recovery pod with interest.
"Yes! This is our latest spacecraft recovery module. Zhao Zhongyao pointed to the recovery pod in front of him and said.
After Political Commissar Li circled around the spacecraft again, he asked curiously: "Can this thing really ensure the safety of astronauts in the sky?"
For a layman like Political Commissar Li, the thing in front of him did not look as complicated as he imagined. In other words, he felt that this thing was a little simpler.
After all, Political Commissar Li is a layman, and he has no idea how complicated this thing is. I don't know, many of the functions and functions of this thing.
"Of course, after astronauts go to space, they rely on the protection of this thing. After staying in heaven for a while, you have to rely on this thing and send it back. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Political Commissar Li again and said.
"But how do I feel, there's nothing special about this thing! It can really send astronauts from the sky back to the ground safely. Political Commissar Li couldn't understand the second use of this recovery pod, so he naturally asked again.
"Haha, Commissar Li, you definitely can't see it. Many of the functions of this recovery pod are hidden inside the recovery pod, and you can't see anything when you're outside. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Political Commissar Li again and said.
"Yes, can you put on a show for me? What the hell is this thing for? Political Commissar Li was also very curious and wanted to know what the functions of this recovery pod were.
"Okay, then Political Commissar Li is optimistic. Now let's start performing. After Zhao Zhongyao finished speaking, he ordered the workers to unload the recovery pod from the car. After that, it pulled next to the F-117 fighter.
Political Commissar Li also followed curiously. I want to see what Zhao Zhongyao is trying to do.
Zhao Zhongyao now ordered the workers to work with the pilot to take the recovery capsule. It was fixed under the fuselage.
This recovery pod is made of metal, though. But the metal materials used by Zhao Zhongyao are special materials that are both light and hard. The entire recovery chamber is also two meters in diameter. But it weighs only 300 kilograms.
The weight of 300 kilograms is nothing at all for a fighter that can carry several missiles.
After the recovery capsule was fixed, Zhao Zhongyao explained a few words to the pilot. After that, he said to Political Commissar Li: "Okay, let's drive to the Gobi Desert!"
As soon as he heard Zhao Zhongyao say this, Political Commissar Li was stunned for a moment: "Why, why do you want to go to the Gobi Desert?" ”
"We are going to test it now, the safety function of this recovery capsule falling from a high altitude, of course, it has to go to the Gobi Desert, can it be carried out in densely populated urban areas!"
As soon as Zhao Zhongyao said this, Political Commissar Li understood what he meant. He also looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said, "Okay, let's drive over together!"
Zhao Zhongyao drove the front to lead the way. Political Commissar Li sat in his own special car and also followed.
Although, there is also a distance of three hundred kilometers from this airport to the Gobi Desert at the recovery point. But if the car is on the highway, of course, it is also very fast. It's only three or four hours. I drove to the Gobi Desert.
After driving to the Gobi Desert, Zhao Zhongyao invited Political Commissar Li from the car.
After that, he looked at him and said, "Just watch it here, and after a while, you will see the wonderful shots." ”
When Political Commissar Li heard this, he also nodded.
Soon, Political Commissar Li saw a small black dot flying from the sky. Slowly, he saw the small black dot clearly, which turned out to be a stealth fighter.
When the stealth fighter flew over their heads, it returned to the recovery pod mounted underneath. The whole process is like a bomb.
The F-117 stealth fighter, which originally had the function of a bomber, could be used as a bomber during combat.
Now the action of this stealth fighter is to return a 'bomb' from high altitude. For this stealth fighter, this is a process of 'bombing'.
As soon as Political Commissar Li saw this stealth fighter, he began to 'drop bombs'. He was a little scared. After all, the place where the bomb was dropped was the next beach under his feet. If he wasn't careful, the 'bomb' wouldn't have blown him up.
As soon as he saw this, Political Commissar Li was a little frightened, he looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said, "Hey, isn't there some danger here? ”
Zhao Zhongyao listened to Political Commissar Li's words, then looked at him again and smiled: "Don't worry, this is not a bomb, this is a recovery cabin." It won't hit you either, it will slowly come down in front of us. ”
Political Commissar Li listened to Zhao Zhongyao's words, and he was relieved. Then he didn't say anything more, he had to go somewhere else.
Just looking at the recovery pod that was falling from the sky. Political Commissar Li's heart was still tense. He kept his head up, keeping an eye on where the 'recovery pod' landed in the sky.
But Zhao Zhongyao was very relieved, he just looked up at the recovery capsule that was still falling from time to time. There was no hint of panic at all.
And Political Commissar Li was highly nervous, he was afraid that this thing would fall in front of him and might hit him!
But just when Political Commissar Li was very nervous, he saw the top of the recovery capsule above his head, and suddenly a huge parachute popped out. As soon as this parachute opens. The speed at which the recovery pod fell slowed down all of a sudden.
At this time, Political Commissar Li's nervous mood eased slightly.
"Hey, this recovery pod still has a parachute!" Political Commissar Li also smiled at this time. He looked at Zhao Zhongyao beside him and asked.
"There is no parachute, so do you let the astronauts sit in the recovery capsule and smash it directly to the ground!" Zhao Zhongyao joked to Political Commissar Li. Political Commissar Li listened to Zhao Zhongyao's words, and he blushed and smiled.
When Zhao Zhongyao carried out the high-altitude fall experiment this time, he had already entered all the programs into the main control computer of the recovery capsule. Everything can be completed under the control of the main computer of the recovery module, and this series of actions can be completed.
Just now the main parachute opened automatically. Underneath, there is also a subparachute, which will not open until the recovery pod descends to a certain height.
As soon as Political Commissar Li saw the main parachute of the recovery capsule open, his mood was no longer nervous. He looked at the recovery pod that was descending, and his heart was much more steady.
Now the recovery pod, with the help of the main parachute, is falling to the ground at a speed of about ten meters per second. This speed is actually very fast. In just a few tens of seconds, the recovery pod had already fallen to a distance of more than 100 meters from the ground.
At this height, the person standing on the ground can almost see the appearance of this recovery pod clearly.
At this time, Political Commissar Li saw that at the top of this recovery capsule, a smaller parachute was suddenly opened. As soon as the small parachute opened, the speed of the recovery pod slowed down all of a sudden.
As soon as he saw this situation, Political Commissar Li was completely relieved. He looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said, "Good guy, there are two parachutes! Zhongyao, your design is really superb! With these two insurance processes, the astronauts will be very safe inside." ”
"No, we still have a third security procedure!" Zhao Zhongyao listened to Political Commissar Li's words, and said confidently again.
"Oh, there is a third level of security, what kind of procedure is that, is there a parachute!" Thinking of the situation he saw before, Political Commissar Li thought that this third procedure might be the third parachute.
Zhao Zhongyao listened to Political Commissar Li's words, then looked at him again and smiled: "What kind of security procedure is it, wait a while, you will know after reading it." ”
Zhao Zhongyao knew that there was no need to explain anything now. Just let Political Commissar Li watch the performance of this recovery pod.
When Zhao Zhongyao was talking to Political Commissar Li, the recovery capsule had quickly descended to a height of a few meters above the ground. And this recovery pod is now more than ten meters away from Zhao Zhongyao and them.
Political Commissar Li could clearly see the appearance of the entire recovery compartment. At first glance, the recovery pod was about to land. His eyes were also wide open, and he didn't ask anything anymore.
But just when the recovery pod was still a meter from the ground, the bottom of the recovery pod suddenly burst into flames. Then, I saw the recovery pod fall steadily onto the Gobi Desert.
Political Commissar Li didn't expect this situation at that time, and he was taken aback all of a sudden. I wondered if there was something wrong with the recovery pod.
"Zhongyao, what's the situation, is there something wrong with the recovery capsule? "Political Commissar Li is a layman and doesn't know anything about this anti-thrust rocket. When I saw this situation, I was naturally shocked.
Zhao Zhongyao looked at Political Commissar Li's nervous expression, and then smiled again: "Political Commissar Li, you are really a layman! The fire just now was the ignition of a small anti-thrust rocket installed at the bottom of the recovery capsule. This is the last safety device of the recovery pod, which ensures that the landing of the retrieval pod is very smooth at the moment of landing. To do without this anti-thrust small rocket. The recovery pod was going to crash into the beach next door at a speed of six meters per second.
Although the recovery capsule smashed into the beach next door at such a speed, the astronauts were inside, and their lives would not be in danger. But if you land like this, the astronaut's body will definitely suffer some damage. But with this small anti-thrust rocket, the astronauts will not feel the vibration of the recovery module. It can be felt that the recovery pod has landed very smoothly on the ground. ”
After listening to Zhao Zhongyao's explanation, Political Commissar Li understood what was going on. As soon as he heard Zhao Zhongyao's words, he blushed and smiled again: "Good guy, this recovery pod you designed is really advanced! There are three security procedures!"
"Commissar Li, what we want to recycle is a person, not anything else. It's our space heroes. We're going to do our best to keep their lives safe. No small problem can be solved. We must ensure 100 percent that the astronauts will go to space smoothly and return safely. ”
After listening to Zhao Zhongyao's words, Political Commissar Li patted Zhao Zhongyao's shoulder again and smiled: "Zhongyao, what you did is really good." Now it seems that our manned space program is about to be completed? You have already developed the recovery capsule. Now that the experiment has been successful, the next step is whether it is possible to directly carry astronauts to space. ”
Zhao Zhongyao listened to Political Commissar Li's words, then looked at him again and said with a smile: "No, if we want to send a 'real person' to the sky, we still have to do a simulated launch training." After that, there will be another animal recovery experiment. After that, we will use 'real people' to complete this manned space program. ”
Zhao Zhongyao knew that although they had now developed the recovery capsule and had also done a high-altitude fall experiment. But they are still too early to really carry out the manned space program! Next, they have to do two more experimental launches.
As soon as he heard Zhao Zhongyao say this, Political Commissar Li said curiously: "Why, there are still two more experiments, is it still in this place!"
"That's right, the recovery pod must have been recovered here. It's just that the next step for us to do the experiment is to send this recovery capsule to space with a real rocket. And then from this beach next door, this recovery pod was recovered. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Political Commissar Li again and said.
As soon as Political Commissar Li heard Zhao Zhongyao's words, he was very curious. I also want to see what kind of feat this next step of the experiment is.
"Well, in this way, when we actually carry out the manned space program, the flight safety of astronauts will be very reassuring. Political Commissar Li looked at Zhao Zhongyao again and said.
"That's right, astronauts are space heroes, and we must keep them safe. It is not easy for the country to train an astronaut. How can we regard astronauts and their lives as child's play? Ensuring the safety of astronauts is the most important task for every one of our scientific and technological personnel. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Political Commissar Li again and said.
After listening to Zhao Zhongyao's words, Political Commissar Li patted Zhao Zhongyao's shoulder again and said, "Zhongyao, what you said is so good. The manned space program that we are carrying out this time will shock the world, so we must succeed and not fail. The safe return of the astronauts must be guaranteed. ”
