On December 20, with the successful deployment of the last solar sail panel, the "Tiangong" space station was completed.

After the news spread, the whole world began to stir up, and the people of Xinhua and Hualong raised their eyebrows and the whole country rejoiced.

The establishment of the "Tiangong" space station is of great significance to the readjustment of the industrial structure, the stimulation of economic development, and the establishment of a space scientific research platform for Xinhua and Hualong countries.

It also indicates that the two countries have caught up with Lijian in the space field and become the world's leading space powers, which has greatly enhanced the international status of the two countries.

In the 21 st century, space deterrence is more dangerous than conventional deterrence and nuclear deterrence, and whoever wins the military race in space and forms a space deterrent to the earth will become the master of human history and the most powerful hegemonic power on the earth.

The side with space hegemony can use an incomparably powerful deterrent force at any time to maintain the global order it wants, without having to think about a retaliatory strike from the other side.

The "Tiangong" space station has completely ruined Lijianguo's attempt to exclude Xinhua in space station cooperation, and it has also ushered in the most powerful challenger in the struggle for hegemony on the earth.

The total weight of the Tiangong space station has reached 3,800 tons, which is 10 times that of the International Space Station and about 30 times larger than the space station that Xinhuaguo originally planned to build after 2020.

The space station consists of more than 30 space capsules, including a personnel living module, a space hotel, a plant cultivation module, a medical experiment module, a material experiment module, an animal laboratory, a material storage module, an energy module, an observation station, a laser defense system, etc.

The space station is assembled in space by parts carried by aerospace aircraft, so the capsule is not all round, when connected together. It's a bit cluttered at first glance. Solar panels stretch out everywhere.

A lot of space capsules are needed for experiments. The area is very spacious, the largest one can accommodate more than 50 people gathering, if the other space stations are as cramped and crowded as submarines, then the "Tiangong" space station is about to catch up with aircraft carriers.

The space station can accommodate more than 90 astronauts, scientists or space tourists, working or living on it at the same time, which is a hot spot for countries such as Liberia and the European Union.

The three aerospace aircraft, including Hope, have a payload of 50 tons and basically take off once a week, which can fully meet the daily supply and experimental needs of the space station.

If modified. Then the space station is replenished en route, and the space plane can even fly to the moon.

The operating income of the space hotel is also enough to support various expenditures after the completion of the space station.

Xinhuaguo, Hualongguo and Dongfang Space Science and Technology Corporation will each send nearly 20 astronauts and scientists to the space station.

In addition to the two countries, the Tiangong space station will also carry out space cooperation with a number of friendly countries.

Pakistan has selected two astronauts for adaptive training at the Xinhua Space Base, and will launch into the space station after New Year's Day next year to participate in a series of space activities.

Countries such as Rakshasa countries, Ukraine, Brazil and the European Union have also responded and hope to join cooperation in space.

……

Nine o'clock in the morning on the 24th. The Dawn space plane took off.

The space plane was carrying 20 billionaires, who were among the first to sign up as space tourists. After a month-long health test, physical training and theoretical study of space travel, they will enter the "Tiangong" space station today and start their journey into space.

The seven-day space trip will be broadcast live on TV every day, broadcasting the daily life of tourists to the world, including washing their faces and brushing their teeth, eating and drinking, exercising and sleeping.

Foreseeably, this is bound to trigger a global space tourism boom.

This group of space tourists stationed in the 'Tiangong' space station is much more comfortable than their predecessors.

First of all, in the lift-off stage, they take the aerospace plane, which has a sealed environment inside, which can reach the level of an airplane flight, and does not need the assistance of tourists to operate.

In the past, spacecraft had to be tied to high-powered rockets, and astronauts had to huddle in a confined space, with great vibration, noise and overload during liftoff, and there were no small safety risks, and even had to learn how to manipulate the equipment on the spacecraft.

Secondly, the space hotel is large and well-equipped, as well as a training cabin and an infirmary, so daily life such as food, clothing, housing and transportation is much more comfortable.

Separated from the gravitational pull of the earth, tourists come to space 400 kilometers above the ground, and when they look back at the earth, it is smaller than a basin, everything is so new, every detail of life is very different from the ground, and many times require special auxiliary facilities and skills.

If you stay here for a few days, your body will even grow a few centimeters taller, but of course this is temporary, and you will return to the same state when you return to Earth.

Gu Yong-hyun is the owner of an electronics, telecommunications and auto parts supply company, and his business has been booming in recent years because of his close cooperation with the four major groups.

Gu Yongxuan has been particularly interested in space since he was a child, and after learning the news of the launch of the space tour project on the "Tiangong" space station, he signed up as soon as possible, and successfully passed the experience, and was lucky to become the first batch of tourists to enter the space station.

In space, the food they eat is special space food, and the early space food is mostly paste, such as apple sauce, beef sauce, vegetable puree, and meat and vegetable mixture.

Now there are great improvements, there are hundreds of patterns and varieties, but in order to prevent food crumbs from flying everywhere and affecting the normal operation of astronauts or equipment, they are often made into very small squares, rectangular squares or small balls so that they can be eaten in one bite.

If you want to drink water, coffee, beverages, juices, etc., squeeze them into your mouth little by little from a plastic bag or a soft aluminum tube in the shape of toothpaste.

To prevent water from splashing when brushing their teeth, astronauts use a special chewing gum that they chew well to clean their teeth.

When sleeping, you have to use a sleeping bag, the posture is very strange, after the sleeping bag is fixed, tourists show their talents, some sleep horizontally, some sleep standing, some sleep upside down, anything.

However, Gu Yongxuan couldn't sleep at all at the beginning, because of weightlessness, his body did not have a sense of solidity, he slept very lightly all night, often woke up, and even had nightmares, dreaming that he had fallen into the abyss.

Astronauts wash their hair with a shampoo that doesn't need to be rinsed with water.

In the past, space bathing was mainly a "sponge bath", only a dry cloth and two sponge cloths, but now there is a special shower equipment, which is much more comfortable.

In the weightless environment of space, going to the toilet is a hassle, requiring a special space toilet, which is more expensive than several luxury villas combined.

In addition to seeing the landscape of space and the Earth, experiencing life in space, and visiting various cabins, space tourists have other tasks during these seven days.

For example, assisting scientists on the space station to conduct more than a dozen human experiments in the space environment and collect relevant data; to participate in labor in the planting cabin; engage in physical activity; Connect with wireless enthusiasts, explain to viewers in front of the TV, and more.

On the fifth day, space tourists also go on an extravehicular spacewalk.

Spacewalks require specialized extravehicular spacesuits, with independent life support systems and working capabilities, including human balance control, oxygen supply and pressure control, ventilation and purification of the microenvironment in the suit, measurement and control and communication systems, power supply systems, and astronaut visual protection and support, which can protect the human body from environmental factors such as vacuum, high and low temperature, solar radiation and micrometeors.

Structurally, the extravehicular spacesuit is composed of a micro-flow protection layer, a vacuum heat insulation shielding layer, an airtight limiting layer, a ventilation structure and a liquid-cooled suit.

Oriental Protective Products has made a revolutionary innovation in spacesuits, and the new "Immortal Bird" extravehicular spacesuit weighs only 52 kilograms, which is more than half the weight of the previous bulky and bloated spacesuit.

The "Immortal Bird" extravehicular spacesuit can be put on by one person in half an hour, and it is close-fitting, comfortable and lightweight, because it has super elasticity, the spacesuit is a uniform size.

On Christmas night, 20 space tourists and 60 astronauts gathered in the entertainment room to celebrate a small gala, and the CEOs and scientists put down their shelves, some sang, some performed sketches, some performed double reeds, and some performed musical instruments.

That night, more than 550 million people around the world watched their show on TV and live online, almost catching up with the ratings of the Spring Festival Gala.

After the party, Gu Yongxuan talked with his family for a while, and he didn't feel sleepy for a while, so he left the space hotel and went to other space capsules to have a look.

In a living module belonging to the Oriental Space Science and Technology Company, Gu Yongxuan saw a family of six, old and young, appearing here.

He was very surprised, today he had not heard of an aerospace plane on the ground for docking, and after visiting the entire space station, he did not dare to say that all the astronauts knew each other, but at least he had a general impression.

The old one was forty or fifty years old, and the younger one was only seven or eight years old, and he was certainly not an astronaut, but there were only 20 tourists in the first batch, and everyone trained together for more than a month, and they became very familiar with each other.

How did this family of unknown origin end up on the space station? (To be continued......)
