Chapter 278: Virtual Astronaut Training

"Come, come with me, you won't feel sci-fi when you walk through this door."

After Tang Chao canceled the weightlessness state, he walked in front and led a group of curious babies to a door next to the hall.

I just let them experience what is called "real" weightlessness, and the feeling of "not being in the village and not in the store" is really a bit panicked for the average person, so now they are honest.

But it also shows that the virtual reality world is a cow that can make any dream come true, and they are very much looking forward to what lies behind the door.

When they walked to the door, Tang Chao no longer used his authority to clap his hands and turn off gravity, but how to come realistically.

I saw him take out a card from his pocket and insert it into the card reading slot, and then press the palm of his hand on the scanning screen, and the door opened two seconds later.

When the door opened, they found another hall, but this one was much smaller than the hall they were in, not only did it have no windows, but it was also extremely simple in decoration, and there was only one door.

A small round door.

They know this small door, and it is a common docking door style on all space stations at present.

When they all walked into the transition hall and the door connecting the hall closed, Tang Chao pointed to the small door and said, "Through this door, there is a space capsule room similar to the International Space Station and the Tiangong Space Station, you can experience it inside." ”

Saying this, he looked at Du Kangsheng, "Kangsheng, you have received professional astronaut training, you can give them guidance." ”

"Okay, boss." Du Kangsheng received the order.

When everyone heard this, they made way for Du Kangsheng and let him go to the front, and Du Kangsheng opened the small round door in the style of the docking door of the space station very skillfully.

As soon as he opened the door, he noticed that something was wrong, because he found that some of the ropes were floating, and there was a small stuffed animal that was turning up and down.

"It's weightless inside?"

Separated by this door, there is the gravity of the earth on one side, and the weightless environment on the other, and there is no obvious air flow after opening the door, which is worthy of the virtual world.

Muttering, he turned his head and said to the others: "It's weightless inside, so you can take a look at my entry into the cabin, I can ensure that I can catch the handle as soon as I go in, and I won't roll around in weightlessness." ”

"And pay attention to collision prevention, you also floated past just now, and twisted yourself in the woods, you know how painful it is."

"Okay."

Everyone responded, watching Mr. Du drill into the space station cabin with a gentle movement, and then lightly grabbed a cabin handle, and stopped himself with his arms.

They did the same, clumsily crawling in, barely standing on their feet, and then immediately being knocked into a ball by the men who rushed in from behind, and laughed.

Tang Chao was naturally not idle outside, and several virtual panels appeared in front of him, showing a large amount of data on them.

These data include the body data of people, as well as the change data of the virtual space, and the interaction data between humans and the virtual space.

Although he can guarantee that this set of equipment is absolutely fine, it is always good to collect more information, and when there is no formal external attack on the market, this matter must be kept secret, so there is a situation where this latest technology allows the company's senior management to do "internal testing".

Of course, this is because Tang Chao can absolutely guarantee the premise of technical safety.

Now the company's senior management knows that the company also has a higher-level research center, and only Tang Chao is in contact on both sides, so there will be a steady stream of new technologies, and they are relatively mature.

It's the same this time, when Tang Chao said that the technology was relatively mature, and they came in and found that it was really good, they thought that this technology had been tested a lot, so they were very relieved.

Tang Chao said that if he wanted them to experience the special astronaut training in the virtual space, he would definitely do what he said, and because of the particularity of the virtual space, the training effect in some aspects is absolutely top-notch, such as brain memory and sensory memory.

Astronauts are a kind of people who are engaged in special occupations in space, and they have to complete special tasks such as flight surveillance, operation, control, communication, maintenance, and scientific research inside and outside the cabin of spacecraft under special environmental conditions, and can lead a normal life.

This requires them to undergo rigorous training, so that they will have excellent physical and psychological qualities, have a strong ability to adapt to the special environmental factors of spaceflight, and be proficient in all kinds of knowledge and skills that spacecraft and flight missions should possess.

There are many training contents for astronauts, including physical training, theoretical knowledge education, psychological training, endurance and adaptability training for special environmental factors, survival training and spacecraft technology training, aerospace medical engineering technology training, space science and application knowledge and technology training, survival training and comprehensive training.

Depending on the category and occupation of astronauts, the specific requirements and content of their training are also different.

In terms of professional astronauts, such as pilots and mission experts, their training content is very large, the requirements are also strict, and the training time is also long, generally about 3 years.

Non-professional astronauts, such as payload specialists or scientist astronauts, have less training content and less time.

Obviously, virtual space is a purely digital space, born from computer data, and cannot interfere with the human body, so it can only affect human beings in terms of memory and feeling.

Take, for example, the state of an astronaut working in space.

Astronauts have to memorize a lot of technical details, they also have to operate a lot of buttons, and when they train on the ground, they will have a one-to-one model to assist in operation and memory, but there is a problem here, that is, when they do the same operation in space, they are floating, and there is a strange sense of powerlessness, which is completely different from the ground environment that has been adapted for decades.

However, if you want to train that kind of floating state on the ground, you can only use the buoyancy simulation of the pool, and the weightlessness state generated by using parabolic flight is too short, only tens of seconds, and you can only train other aspects, which is simply not possible for long-term operation.

But the key is that the effect of the pool practice is not very good, after all, the gap between the pool and space is still quite large, and it is only because there is no other better way to use it.

Although a pool can generate a weightless-like buoyancy force, it is an extremely dense environment unlike space, where molecules are extremely thin.

Astronauts in training can not only feel the power of floating in the water, but also feel significant resistance when doing movements.

Even if you wave your hand backwards, your body will slide forward, and no matter how you wave your hand in space, the best thing you can do is just spin around.

It's different now, in virtual space, it uses a physics engine to simulate the space environment, then for the data, it's real space.

Therefore, for the consciousness of everyone, they are now conducting all kinds of training in space, and the state in which they operate various instruments is also the state that should be in space.

Even when they go to real space, the way they feel in their bodies and the feedback they get when they touch various devices is the same.

With this effect, the rest of their subjects are physical.

For example, in the real world, a large centrifuge can make various organs of the body tolerate the state of overweight, and when riding or driving a space vehicle, it can adapt to the state of being overweight.
