In the early morning of the next day, Tang Yue and the old cat informed Mai Dong, who had just woken up, the news.

"Tianzhou...... Number 37? Mai Dong was taken aback, "Is it still alive?" ”

Tang Yue nodded.

"Tianzhou-37 was launched before we set off, and for some reason, this spacecraft escaped the bad luck of evaporating from the earth, and found its destination very precisely, and it will arrive on Mars in twenty days as originally planned."

"I remember that Tianzhou-37 was a cargo spacecraft."

"Yes." It took Tang Yue several hours to calm down his excitement before he could look a little calm, but he still couldn't suppress the joy in his eyes, "There are five tons of food and drink on that spaceship, including fruits and vegetables, beef and fish, and canned Australian lobster!" ”

He sent the list of supplies to Mai Dong.

Mai Dong began to count.

"Forty-four types of food in category I, twenty-three kinds of food in category IM, nine kinds of food in category NF, fifty-four kinds of food in category R, and twenty-seven kinds of food in category T...... These include raisin oatmeal, yogurt, dried apricots, dried pears, Moscow brown bread, assorted shrimp, steak, sausage pies, peanuts, tortillas, dehydrated mushroom soup, spaghetti with meat sauce...... Sizzle – bread pudding, beef noodles, mushroom beef tenderloin...... Hiss – vegetable salad, diced pork and rice......"

"Girl, saliva...... Slobber! ”

Mai Dong wiped his saliva, tears welled up in his eyes, and his eyes burst out with a blazing light.

"Tang Yue, Mr. Cat, I'...... I saw heaven. ”

"Yes." Tang Yue nodded, "That's heaven." ”

Mai Dong hugged the plush toy dog Ah Q tightly, buried his face in the furry dog's belly and chirped, hummed and laughed, and rolled around in the core cabin.

"Amazing, amazing! Haha, that's great! ”

Tang Yue and the old cat glanced at each other.

Old cat shrugged: You may not have performed much better than Miss Mai Dong just now.

Tang Yue cleared his throat, "Girl, supplies and supplies are not the point, the most important thing is that we need to change the landing plan - Tianzhou 37 is a very safe lander, you can take Tianzhou down, we don't need to let Orion force landing." ”

"Understood." Mai Dong nodded, "That means I need to wait on the space station for another twenty days." ”

"Yes." Tang Yue said, "After Tianzhou enters the orbit of Mars, we will let it dock with the joint space station first, you can enter the spacecraft with everything you need, and the excess materials on the space station and the plants you raise can also be brought down...... Tianzhou has the ability to land you safely, and it will land precisely at the entrance of Kunlun Station, and I guarantee that the whole process will be very smooth and safe. ”

"Understood." The girl's dark eyes rolled around and smiled, "But you only said last night that I could have dinner with you tonight, doesn't that promise count?" ”

"Of course it counts." Tang Yue said, "It's just going to be postponed for 20 days, and then we will entertain you with Australian lobsters." ”

"For the sake of the lobster," he snorted...... "I will forgive you if you release my pigeon this time." ”

"Miss Mai Dong." The old cat moved over and squeezed Tang Yue away, and the gossip was over, and it was time to get down to business.

"I'm here, Mr. Cat."

"You've got a clear idea of the current situation, and we need you to turn off the landing mode due to the temporary cancellation of the Orion II spacecraft's landing plan." The old cat sat with its paws crossed and chin against it, and the monitor in front of it showed the Orion in working state, with eight engines turned off, but the Raptor-05 Raptor rocket in the center was marked red, "The ground shows that Orion 2 is making a second attitude adjustment, and Raptor-05 is in pulse working state." ”

Mai Dong floated to the edge of the porthole and looked out through the porthole.

At this time, the United Space Station is located in the shadow of the far side of Mars, and the Orion 2 spacecraft is in the process of adjusting its attitude - in the landing program designed by the old cat, Orion needs to make three attitude adjustments before officially entering the atmosphere.

Looking at it from afar, the Raptor engine of the Orion power module flashed a light blue light in the dark, flashing like a navigation light, and like a small candle swaying in the wind, this is not the normal working state of the Raptor engine, but the pulse throttling program designed by the old cat, which ignites the rocket with frequency in sections in order to save propellant, methane is fully burned in oxygen, and the tail flame is bright and conspicuous blue.

The Raptor-05 engine is propelling the spacecraft to slowly change orbit and attitude.

"Yes, Mr. Cat." Mai Dong replied, she glanced at the control panel again, "Orion's engine is working, and it is in normal condition." ”

"Turn it off." The old cat instructed.

"Just turn it off?"

"Just turn it off."

Mai Dong opened the laptop, accessed the control system, and pressed the cancel button.

"Mr. Cat, there's no response."

Mai Dong said and poked the button a few more times.

"BUG AGAIN?" The old cat scratched his head, Mai Dong's button was pressed, but the engine of the Orion II spacecraft was still flickering, it was obvious that there was a problem in the control chain between Mai Dong's notebook and the spaceship engine, after all, this was not the original program of the spaceship, but the old cat wrote it temporarily, and it was not surprising that there was a BUG, "But it's okay, don't be nervous, it's just a small problem...... Just reboot it. ”

Restarting solves 99% of program problems.

The last one percent requires a few more restarts.

"How do I restart?"

"Circuit breaker." Lao Mao said, "Directly disconnect the control system, this is the easiest way to restart." ”

Mai Dong pulled down the gate on the instrument panel, waited for a few seconds, and the indicators on the control panel were all extinguished, and then pushed the rod up to the end.

"Shut down Raptor-05 now." The old cat instructed.

Mai Dong leaned against the porthole, holding her laptop in her arms, and she pressed the cancel button again.

This time it worked, and a prompt popped up on the computer page: Raptor-05 was closed and out of landing mode.

Then a second window appears: Orion enters normal flight mode.

The old cat was immediately notified that all nine engines in Orion were marked red.

Mai Dong clearly felt the bulkhead begin to shake slightly, because the system ignited all the engines in Orion, the propellant and oxidizer burned violently in the combustion chamber, and the vibrations were transmitted along the hull and truss to Mai Dong's side, and after the landing plan was canceled, the Raptor rocket needed to put the United Space Station back into normal orbit.

The girl looked out, and in the dark shadows on the far side of Mars, the majestic flames of the nine Raptor engines burst out as hot and bright as the sun, and the orange-red light almost illuminated the entire world at that moment.

Mai Dong floated in the warm light, as if looking directly at the sunset at the last moment before setting, the girl's cheeks were fair, and the fine soft fluff was clearly visible, dyed with a layer of oil painting-like red. 8)
