Chapter 593: Successful docking with the second phase of the international space cooperation project

The Soaring Space Station.

This is China's first permanent space station in space, the first Lingxiao core module, launched in 20 years, 22 years after the retirement of the International Space Station, Lingxiao has taken shape, becoming the only space station in orbit, completed by Huaxia with the power of one country.

Russia's Mir core module also chose to access the Sky after the International Space Station was decommissioned and disbanded.

Independently manufactured by Huaxia, the space is smaller than that of the International Space Station, and can only accommodate three astronauts for experimental research for the time being.

After a while, the three astronauts will be replaced and returned to the ground to allow new astronauts to settle in for research.

Among the cosmonauts currently stationed on the space station, there are two Chinese cosmonauts, one is a Russian cosmonaut, and in addition, a special intelligent robot has been stationed.

In the core module of the Lingxiao space, the space of 16 cubic meters is not small, and it can accommodate three astronauts, which is large enough.

At this time, all three of them were paying attention to the news coming from the ground.

The Goddess is about to send supplies and some experimental materials.

As a customer of 'receiving couriers', they received the news as early as a week ago when the Institute of Space Research of the Academy of Sciences and the Marching Ant Group reached a cooperation.

Today is the day of the launch of the Goddess, and the three astronauts are also watching the live broadcast throughout the whole process.

Fei Jun stood in front of the screen, holding a grip in his hand.

In space, exercise is very necessary to prevent muscle degeneration and atrophy, and he usually exercises when he has free time.

He was the first astronaut to be stationed on the space station, and one of the most decorated astronauts to go to space many times, and he is currently the highest commander on the space station.

At this time, Fei Jun was also a little nervous and a little expectant.

The Goddess is not an aircraft of the Aerospace Group, but an aircraft of Huaxia Enterprises, for him, this is also a manifestation of Huaxia's strength.

"The Goddess is expected to arrive in 20 minutes, and we're ready to meet the courier." Fei Jun looked at the data and time that had been transmitted, and spoke.

"This plane looks so cool." Rovsky said in Chinese with some accents.

Rovsky is the Russian cosmonaut stationed in the station, who once lived on the now-retired International Space Station, and is the most experienced veteran cosmonaut of the three of them.

Because Lingxiao is a space station in China, all the button symbols of the space station are in Chinese.

In order to better communicate experiments, mastering Chinese is one of the most basic conditions for entering the Lingxiao, and all daily communication here is in Chinese.

"It's really cool, we can go in and have a look after docking, and the ground says that the plane is full of intelligent robot pilots."

Liu Yanyun also had some expectations.

She is the only female astronaut among the three astronauts.

Although women are stationed in space, which can sometimes be a little inconvenient, she still persevered and showed resilience that was not inferior to that of two male astronauts.

"I'm a little impatient, Xiaowa isn't that good." Rovsky said.

Xiaowa is a robot stationed in space, using the intelligent robot transformation of the marching ant group, written into the intelligent core of Xia Wa, who has been successfully researched by the Academy of Sciences, and settled in the space station, sometimes replacing astronauts, and completing some more dangerous out-of-cabin tasks.

"It's time to prepare."

Fei Jun put down the grip in his hand, borrowed a little force with his arm, and floated towards the hatch of the core cabin.

20 minutes, quickly passed.

When the Goddess approached the space station, the speed had been adjusted to almost the same as that of the space station, and the counterport in front of the abdomen was also exposed, and it was slowly approaching the counterport of the space station.

"Ready to dock...... 300 cm ...... Prepare for docking...... The artificial intelligence carried by the 280 cm ...... "Goddess" repeats the current state over and over again.

A logo for the interface has already appeared on the screen and is constantly being adjusted to slight deviations.

In the command center, everyone was inexplicably nervous, and their hands were unconsciously clenched.

This is the most critical step.

As long as the docking is successful, this supply mission will be a perfect success.

"Docking...... 100 cm ...... Docking ...... 50 cm ......"

As the data sent back got closer and closer, the hall became quieter and quieter, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe, for fear that it would 'blow' the benchmark on the screen.

Even Chen Mo, who had always been calm, felt the tension in the air and stared at the screen intently.

Huaxing's palms are sweating, this kind of thing, if you have a bad heart, you have to prepare a heart-saving pill, in case of failure and huge losses, the consequences will be very terrifying.

"Docking...... 30 cm ...... Docking ...... 10cm ......"

On the screen, the moment the two pairs of interfaces closed, everyone's hearts beat hard, their breath stagnated, and the whole person was lifted.

"Docking successful."

Four words, like heaven.

Let the tense atmosphere explode in an instant, the first applause rang out, and in the entire hall, the applause was thunderous, and cheers and laughter instantly filled every corner.

Chen Mo also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If this fails, he has a great responsibility, but fortunately it was successfully completed.

In the space station, Fei Jun heard the successful docking reported by the intelligent system, which made him put down his hanging heart and show a relaxed smile.

"It worked."

"I'm kind of impatient."

Rovsky shouted excitedly, waiting for the docking hatch to open, Yang Yanyun stood behind Rovsky, waiting quietly, from her eyes, you can see very much anticipation.

"The air pressure in the docking cabin has returned to normal, and the cabin can be opened."

After getting the prompt, Fei Jun opened the door leading to the docking cabin, and the door of the docking cabin of the aerospace aircraft also opened instantly.

"You guys go over, I'll contact the ground first." After Fei Jun finished speaking, he floated back towards the core module. Although he also wanted to go in quickly to see the situation of the Goddess, as the leader of this place, his work could not be left behind.

"Hello, I'm the Goddess No. 1 pilot robot 'Mouse', welcome to the Goddess, Mr. Astronaut, Ms. Astronaut."

"Hello, I'm the No. 2 pilot robot 'Niu' on the Goddess, welcome to you."

As soon as they entered the space plane, inside the space plane, two intelligent robots were 'standing' on the bulkhead of the Goddess, and from their perspective, it looked like the robots were hanging upside down.

"My God, it's so beautiful, this robot can stand, there should be an electromagnet under its feet, wait for me to roll over first, Mr. Mouse."

Seeing the situation inside the cabin of the Goddess spacecraft, Rovsky exclaimed in disbelief.

"Hello, Mr. Robot Mouse, Mr. Cow." Liu Yanyun also turned over and said hello to the two robots.

The Goddess docked successfully with the Lingxiao.

This news spread all over the world through CCTV, and the circle of space research seemed to have a major earthquake and was shaken.

The whole of China fell into jubilation.

All the employees of the marching ant group are also festive, the goddess has completed the task perfectly, and next, they will create infinite possibilities.

The reports of various media have raised the heat of the news to the peak.

The most powerful group of companies has finally extended its poisonous hand to space, and the imagination of the future is infinite.

Not long after, the official website of the marching ant group and the official website of the flying ant aerospace company announced again that after the goddess completed the replenishment mission, it started the satellite orbit mission, and brought nine satellites, all of which successfully entered the scheduled orbit.

The news pushed the popularity of the Goddess of the Marching Ant Group to the climax.

And when the limelight was booming, a news was announced, attracting global attention.

NASA has publicly announced the formation of a new international joint space research facility (ISA) in conjunction with the European Space Agency, the Island Space Research and Development Agency, the Canadian Space Agency, the Indian Space Agency and the Brazilian Space Agency.

The second phase of the space station cooperative research project was launched, and a total of 18 countries participated in the program.

The second phase of the core module of the International Space Station, Zeus, will be launched into space with the returnable heavy-lift carrier rocket "Falcon 10" in 10 days, and other experimental modules will also be launched into space within a month to dock and form a new space station.

However, the news released by NASA is just the beginning.

NASA had just brought in a wave when another bombshell news came from the Pentagon, triggering an even bigger tsunami.
