Chapter 919: Skydiving at the Edge of Space
"Astronauts parachuted to Mars!"
"Come and see, Du Ye is showing off his operation again, parachuting and landing on the surface of Mars."
"Damn, I'm a big star! The atmospheric pressure of Mars is less than one percent of that of Earth, is he playing like this to make sauce? ”
"Xie Te, the cow batch is big, on the earth, Du Ye once said that he would break the record of Google's vice president of 41,000 meters in the sky, this thing is not broken on the earth, run to Mars to load the batch?"
"This is the first person in the ages, right? As long as he succeeds, who would dare to say that everyone else has done all the things that Du Ye has done? ”
"Is there any expert god who has come out and said, is this going to work?"
At the same time that Du Xiaosheng entered the airlock cabin to put on the spacesuit and discharge nitrogen, his sailors who were far away on Earth had completely exploded.
Although the vice president of Google came to the edge of space in a helium balloon as early as 2014, wearing a spacesuit, and completed the feat of 41,000 meters of parachuting, it was above the earth after all, and under the influence of huge gravitational acceleration, this buddy's speed once exceeded 1280 kilometers per hour, which is more than three times the speed of sound.
This is faster than the speed of fighter jets, and on Mars, this speed is even faster, which is an important reason why human probes have landed on Mars 19 times, and only nine times have succeeded!
The air pressure is too low, which means that the deceleration effect of the parachute is greatly reduced!
"If Du Ye does not parachute to Mars, then the entire Mars program will be a complete failure, and tens of billions of yuan and the efforts of countless people will come to naught."
"In a low-pressure environment, the high-altitude skydiver will have a "flat rotation" phenomenon, and once the horizontal rotation cannot be controlled, then the pilot is likely to be turned unconscious. ”
When this happens, blood rushes to his limbs and brain, causing him to become temporarily blind. Worse still, once the blood rushes to the brain, it can lead to brain hemorrhage or clotting. ”
This does not include the rescue problem, as the first person to enter the Martian atmosphere, Du Xiaosheng has any problems during the landing, it is impossible to be rescued, of course, in such a dangerous situation, once he is in danger, he only has the option of falling to death.
In the face of such a dangerous thing, Du Xiaosheng in the live broadcast at this time seemed quite relaxed, he took a big sip of oxygen while holding an oxygen mask, and said: "I now completely discharge the nitrogen in my body, so that when I work on Mars, I will not have blood boiling." ”
At this time, Paul walked over with two parachutes, compared a microphone with his hand, and said to the camera: "How do you feel now?" ”
Du Xiaosheng wiped his forehead as if he was really being interviewed: "I am very nervous, very excited, and very scared." ”
Paul was a little surprised: "It's a joke, right?!" Would you be scared too? ”
"Of course I'm scared, a completely unfamiliar planet, untouched territory, a completely different environment for skydiving, and limited experience to be able to borrow. But I know very well that fear keeps people from losing their awe, and it will always make me understand the importance of life. ”
At this time, Du Xiaosheng is very skillful in every move, and this kind of ease has already shown his bearing as a legendary master.
The spacesuit was quickly put on neatly, and the nitrogen in Du Xiaosheng's body was also cleaned at this time.
Du Xiaosheng carried the parachute bag and slowly walked to the door of the airlock cabin, led by Paul, and the three-person team stepped forward in turn to make a final hug with Du Xiaosheng!
His movements are very simple and ordinary, as if he is performing some ordinary assignment, giving people a sense of steadiness.
Zhao Yunhan was the last person he hugged him, and in front of the camera, Du Xiaosheng said with a smile: "See you later." ”
"Wait for me below." Zhao Yun said coldly.
Du Xiaosheng smiled slightly, just turned around in a dashing manner, and then walked to the outer hatch of the airlock cabin, and the people who stayed in the inner cabin closed the door, and silently watched Du Xiaosheng's back through the small window.
On the ground, in the live broadcast room.
"Sister-in-law Du's words have a deep meaning, you say that if Du Ye dies, will Sister-in-law Du also ......?"
"Bah, baba, the crow's mouth upstairs, Du Ye has been around for thousands of generations, as stable as an old dog, a martyr!"
"But the goddess is indeed possible, there are two meanings, otherwise Du Xiaosheng successfully completed the task, she went down to pick him up, or ......"
"The most handsome turn around, I'm sorry, love, Du Ye is so handsome!"
"This guy just played a mission, turned it into the most handsome turn, PUBG."
Just when the barrage area was in full swing with comments, the picture changed again.
"Damn, it's beautiful!"
As the door of the airlock cabin was slowly opened, Du Xiaosheng stood in front of the hatch, and in front of him was a vast and magnificent red planet.
Du Xiaosheng's task is by no means simple, he needs not only to land safely on the surface of Mars, but also to land near several carrier modules with great precision.
If he makes a mistake in landing and deviates from the established route, then Du Xiaosheng will face infinite desolation and doomed mission failure.
It's too high, and it's too scary.
The live broadcast cut to a satellite view, and in the silence of the universe, a man in a spacesuit slowly floated out of the airlock cabin, he was not wearing a seat belt, and the jet behind him propelled him towards the huge red planet.
What a lonely and magnificent picture it was.
Many netizens have taken screenshots of wallpapers to commemorate this historic moment.
In ancient times, Chang'e went to the moon, and now Du Xiaosheng flies to Mars.
When the camera switched back to Du Xiaosheng's perspective, Du Xiaosheng had already come to the edge of the Martian atmosphere.
Inside the spacesuit, Du Xiaosheng was wearing a headset, his body shook, and the jet action stopped instantly, and he said, "My current altitude is." At an altitude of 43,000 meters, I have been captured by the gravitational pull of Mars and am now entering the Martian atmosphere. ”
In the cockpit, Zhao Yunhan, who observed Du Xiaosheng's heart rate status, immediately reported the parameters: "You are now 17 degrees north of the course and you need to adjust the direction of the fall......"
"Wait a minute, let me take a few more breaths of oxygen, I'm going to switch the perspective to the first perspective now, soon my falling speed will break through the speed of sound, pay attention to the state of the sound barrier damage to my spacesuit......"
As the camera was switched to the first point of view, Paul behind Du Xiaosheng was wearing a spacesuit and filming the moment when Du Xiaosheng parachuted with the help of a robotic arm.
This moment came quickly!
Almost as soon as Du Xiaosheng finished speaking, he felt that the gravitational pull of Mars captured him, and his body immediately fell into the Martian atmosphere!
As the perspective switched, Du Xiaosheng saw a blue sun! And the audience from the first perspective also saw this beautiful scene for the first time!
In the peachy pink sky, the sun is refracted by the Martian atmosphere, emitting a faint blue light!
Immediately after that, the halo generated by the oblique lens began to change as it turned sharply!
The strong sense of weightlessness and pulling made Du Xiaosheng's body rotate rapidly, and the huge pulling force generated by the fall from a height of more than 40,000 meters made him feel a fierce knife-like updraft impacting his body while falling!
He fell very quickly, but the rising air flow seemed extremely weak!
Yes!
The atmosphere of Mars is more than a star and a half thinner than that of the Earth!
The worst effect of this on him was that he landed too fast.
Under the strong wind, although the friction caused by the thin atmosphere is not so strong, under the action of gravity, Du Xiaosheng still feels like a meteorite, controlled by strong winds, lack of oxygen, and super friction!
There was a sound impediment around his body! This shows that he has broken through the speed of sound, and the speed continues to increase!
One word, quick!
Two words, out of control!
In the Marine Corps, Du Xiaosheng was trained as a supersonic fighter, and in Russia he was trained in eleven times the centrifugal force of gravity!
However, at this time, the phenomenon of congestion and dizziness is still inevitable! From the moment Du Xiaosheng was captured by the gravitational pull of Mars, he frantically impacted Du Xiaosheng's whole body.
Almost in a few seconds, Du Xiaosheng's initial speed broke through 600 kilometers per hour, and this speed is still increasing exponentially!
Such an initial speed is already faster than a bullet, if it weren't for Du Xiaosheng's efforts to lay his body in the air at this time, using the body area to increase the friction resistance of the atmosphere, Du Xiaosheng's current speed is probably far more than that!
"It's too fast! The speed has exceeded expectations, please answer when you receive it, and it is over. ”
"You've now dropped at a speed of 1,280 kilometers per hour and are expected to reach 1,400 kilometers in three seconds......"
"Du Xiaosheng, please answer when you receive it!"
……
The super-large centrifugal force generated by the high-speed landing caused an incomparably huge load on Du Xiaosheng's body, and Du Xiaosheng gritted his teeth and resisted the appearance of black vision with all his might.
At this time, a fog of sound barrier had broken through behind him, and the loud roar outside the spacesuit made it impossible to hear the sound from the headset.
Because he was hiding in a spacesuit, he did not suffer from hypoxia, and Du Xiaosheng almost did not hesitate to open the parachute bag directly!
This is not the earth, and even if the parachute is opened at an altitude of more than 30,000 meters, it will not be in a slow landing situation for a long time.
And not only that, because of the protection of the spacesuit, Du Xiaosheng doesn't need to worry about the temperature, he doesn't need to worry about oxygen, all he has to do is survive!
The opening speed of the special parachute bag is almost double the opening speed of the normal parachute, almost at the moment when Du Xiaosheng opened the parachute, the parachute bag opened instantly.
The huge parachute opened instantly, and Du Xiaosheng's crazy falling speed suddenly decreased a lot!
However, the speed was still extremely fast, Du Xiaosheng did not hesitate for a moment, stabilized his body, and immediately turned on the propulsion device behind him, and the powerful jet sprayed by the rocket jet device instantly curbed the momentum of Du Xiaosheng's fall, and his speed began to slow down visibly!
"Du, you have deviated from the course, you are now seventy-five kilometers away from the intended landing position, if you just fall straight down, you will spend a lot of time to get to the location of the carrier module......"
