Life in the Lewis Flight Power Laboratory is probably the purest period of Zhang Heng's dungeon, except for the blonde beauty, the director of human resources and administration and Jim, who runs to Congress every day to negotiate the budget, are the purest and fanatical scientific research workers, there is not much intrigue between each other, plus there is no main mission in the transition script, and there is no threat of survival, so Zhang Heng's life is also very simple.

Follow Wu Zhonghua every day to learn engineering knowledge, in addition to using the salary of the internship to invite the airport pilot to go to the nearby bar and nightclub to have fun, Zhang Heng successfully got on the plane in the second month, and in the fourth month, he successfully touched the T-33, as a passenger to feel a subsonic flight, so it is not far from him flying the plane alone to the sky.

However, Wu Zhonghua submitted a resignation request to NACA at this time, claiming that he preferred the living environment of the school, and was going to go to Brooklyn Tech University in New York as a professor at the next stop.

Zhang Heng did not attend the farewell party, but drove them to the station in a borrowed Chevrolet when Wu Zhonghua and his wife left.

He is one of the few people who has guessed Wu Zhonghua's true intentions, although it is more beneficial for him for Wu Zhonghua to stay in the laboratory, and strictly speaking, it is just a game, but no matter where he is, in what time and space, and how many reincarnations he has experienced, there are still people who will make the same choice.

Therefore, Zhang Heng did not persuade Wu Zhonghua to stay.

What's more, Wu Zhonghua has helped him a lot, although he is still not as good as the same batch of genuine MIT graduate students who graduated from the engineering department, but after all, after more than four months, he has started his engineering skills, and he is also very familiar with Wu Zhonghua's research part.

…………

Seeing the train carrying Wu Zhonghua and his wife go away, Zhang Heng did not rush back to the laboratory, I heard that the engineer who took over Wu Zhonghua's work was transferred by Langley Laboratory, and the other party could only arrive tomorrow, so Zhang Heng and the other female assistant had nothing to do before this, it was equivalent to a holiday, Zhang Heng drove a borrowed car around Cleveland.

He bought two vinyl records of Patti Page, a burger and a tortilla, and even accidentally lit up an achievement, earning three points, after which he fed the pigeons in the city park and returned to the lab just before sunset, only to be stopped by the blonde beauty who rushed in as soon as he got out of the car.

"Great, there's a new test pilot recruited in the lab, he's already here, and he's sitting in the corridor on the first floor, but there's an emergency on the Capitol side, and I'm going to rush over with Mr. Jim now, so I can only ask you to show him around the airport and the lab first."

She spoke quickly, and at the same time, she stuffed a large stack of documents in her hand into Zhang Heng's arms, "Also, please give these things to Dr. Maggie for me." ”

As she spoke, the black Jaguar XK120 in the distance kept honking its horn to urge.

The blonde beauty gave Zhang Heng a flying kiss, "I'll treat you and coffee when I come back the day after tomorrow, that's it." After that, without waiting for Zhang Heng to answer, he pulled his skirt and ran into the car with high heels.

Zhang Heng inexplicably became the receptionist of the laboratory, and came to the corridor with the pile of things, where there was already a person sitting on a chair waiting.

He didn't look very old, only in his early twenties, but unlike other young people of this age, he had an innate quietness in him, as if he was always thinking about something, and at the same time he showed a military temperament in his gestures.

Zhang Heng is not too surprised by the last point, many of the test pilots recruited by the laboratory are from the military.

Seeing Zhang Heng coming, he behaved very politely and stood up from his position.

"Hello, I'm David, an intern in the lab, you're the new test pilot, Jane asked me to show you around the place of work in the future."

"Thank you." The man said, while holding out his hand, "Neil Alden Armstrong, a former Navy pilot. ”

His voice was calm and firm.

Zhang Heng and the other party's hand paused.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, nice to meet you, Mr. Armstrong." Zhang Hengdao.

"Me too."

"If you don't mind, I'll send these documents to Dr. Maggie first, and then I'll start our visit."

Armstrong nodded.

Zhang Heng did not expect to meet the first person on the moon in 1955 Armstrong, speaking of his life resume did have a period of work as a test pilot in the laboratory under NACA, at this time Mr. Astronaut looks exceptionally young, according to the time, he should be only 25 years old now, after the end of the Navy service returned to campus to complete his university education, but has not yet obtained a master's degree in aeronautical engineering.

In later life, he has been very low-key after the successful moon landing, teaching at the university, living a reclusive life, almost not accepting media interviews, and never writing an autobiography, many people don't know that Armstrong did not take a picture of himself on the moon, the widely circulated moon landing photo is actually his teammate Buzz Aldrin, we can only barely see Armstrong's shadow from the reflection of his helmet, and the famous moon landing footprint, also from Buzz Aldrin.

Unlike his showy teammate, Armstrong is a very humble and low-key person, especially when he was younger, and probably only those who have come into contact with him know about it.

However, Zhang Heng is more interested in Armstrong's aircraft piloting skills, it is said that he got his pilot's license when he was 16 years old, and before he got his driver's license, he had flown more than 200 different types of aircraft before joining NASA, which is an important reason why NASA chose him to become an astronaut.

It's just that Zhang Heng is not clear whether this encounter in 1955 will affect another copy 14 years later.

After giving Dr. Maggie the document in his hand, Zhang Heng returned to Armstrong, "So, did you just come to Cleveland?" ”

"Yes, I applied to the Dryden Flight Research Center at Edward Air Force Base, but there aren't any spots there, so I've been placed here." Armstrong Drive.

"In that case, let's go have a drink after the tour."
