281 (4) Live as a repairman
There was silence in the channel for several minutes.
"Miss Mai Dong."
"Huh?"
"The mock test is over, and you're free to move." The old cat pushed the keyboard away, the monitors in front of it turned off one by one, and the workstation finished the simulation task and was exiting the process.
In the memory of the HP workstation, the landing of the Orion II spacecraft stopped at an altitude of 11,657.3 meters, and the main couple broke due to the ship's attitude loss of control and excessive deviation angle.
The next thing should be the propellant tank rupture, fuel leakage, explosion and crash, there is no need for the old cat and Tang Yue to look down, there is an explosion at this height, only the Hulk can survive, 10,000 meters is a hurdle, Orion has not been able to cross it.
Tang Yue sat down on the chair, his hands hanging at his sides, and let out a long breath when he looked up to the sky.
"Am I still alive?"
Mai Dong did not move.
"Of course you're alive, girl." Tang Yue said, "You're talking to me, if you don't believe it, you can touch your face and see if it's hot." ”
"I'm wearing a helmet."
"Then take off your helmet."
Mai Dong raised his hand, unbuttoned the helmet of the spacesuit, took it off, and gently pushed it with his index finger, the spherical glass mask slowly floated away, the girl's short black hair fluttered away in the weightless environment, there was no air conditioning in the Eagle spacecraft, the temperature was a little low, and the warm breath exhaled by Mai Dong condensed in the low temperature and turned into a curling white mist.
The protective panels of the portholes of the lander were opened one after another, and the golden sunlight shone in.
Outside the window is the crimson surface of Mars, which is still in orbit at an altitude of three hundred kilometers.
Mai Dong sat in the commander's chair for a long time, without saying a word, she knew that the simulation test had failed, and she had been listening to the correspondence between Tang Yue and the old cat, Tang Yue's last words were "The main truss of the Orion spacecraft broke and disintegrated", if this was a real landing, then Mai Dong would be dead by now.
The girl moved her fingers, for her, the simulation test just now was not nervous, let alone any real feeling, the only thing she did from beginning to end was to sit in the chair and watch the time, no matter what Tang Yue and the old cat were shouting, whether it was out of control or deviating, the Eagle lander was actually quietly flying around Mars.
Lao Mao and Tang Yue let her experience the whole process of a landing in advance, but the final result was that the ship was destroyed and people died.
"I'm alive, it's just a little cold here." Mai Dong touched his cheek, "There is no air conditioner in the lander, and the air conditioner was removed by me, so I wouldn't have dismantled it so early." ”
"You're still in the lander?" Tang Yue asked.
"Hmm." The girl nodded, "The captain's chair is still quite comfortable to sit on, wide and soft, I want to stay a little longer." ”
"Are you in weightlessness, girl, are your seat belts too tight?"
"Tang Yue."
"Huh? What's the matter? ”
"Tang Yue."
"Huh? What's the matter? ”
"Tang Yue."
"Girl, what's the matter with you? If you have something, just say it. ”
"Nothing, just wanted to call your name." Mai Dong unfastened the seat belt on his body, "Tang Yue Tang Yue Tang Yue Tang Yue Tang Yue Tang Yue!" ”
Tang Yue was inexplicable.
The old cat grabbed Tang Yue, leaned over and whispered, "This girl is under too much pressure."
Tang Yue was stunned, he was a straight man like a steel man who had never dealt with the opposite sex for twenty-six years in science and engineering, except for the cafeteria and his aunt, and his insight into a girl's mind was not as good as a cat.
Indeed, Mai Dong's psychological pressure is too great.
For such a long time, she has been fighting alone on the space station, no matter how heavy and troublesome the work is, this girl can only bear it by herself. The frequency and working hours of Mai Dong's out-of-cabin operations have caught up with Lao Wang, and the old cat himself said that this is a crushing workload, if you let others do it, you would have to strike and take the burden, but Mai Dong gritted his teeth and persevered...... Every time I return to the space station, two liters of sweat can be poured out of the extravehicular suit.
She had to persevere because it was saving her life.
At the same age, other girls should be surrounded by flowers and gifts, cared for like princesses, by homeschool, and others.
But Mai Dong lived as a hard and tired repairman.
The failure of this simulation test and the crash of the Orion spacecraft would not be surprising even if Mai Dong's mood completely collapsed at this moment, and the latter hoped that she would cry heartily.
"Mai Dong."
"Huh?"
"Mai Dong."
"Huh? I'm here. ”
"Mai Dong."
"I hear me, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing, I just want to call you by your name." Tang Yue said, "Mai Dong." ”
"Okay, don't call me by my name anymore......"
"Everything you do is meaningful."
Mai Dong was stunned.
"We are about to finish, now we are only the last step, we have overcome so many difficulties, we have overcome so many difficulties, these are the results of your work, and now we are only one last step away." Tang Yue said, "As long as we step over this foot, we can win the final victory!" You have to have faith! The party and the people believe in you! ”
Mai Dong sneered.
"Are you a commissar?"
Tang Yue couldn't say anything good, and his encouragement always sounded like mobilizing infantry to be cannon fodder in the Battle of Stalingrad.
"There's no need to be frustrated, the test failure is expected, the purpose is to collect data and fix the program, and we don't want to get it right the first time, and we have a lot to gain." The old cat clapped his hands and stood up, "As far as the goal of the mission itself is concerned, we have successfully completed the first mock test, which is worth celebrating!" ”
The old cat crackled and applauded, and it also raised its paws above the top, signaling Tang Yue to applaud with it, with a kind of "Let's get high, comrades!" ”
Tang Yue glanced at the cat coldly and ignored it.
Encourage Mai Donggui to encourage, but he can still applaud and celebrate if he fails the test, no matter how big his heart is, it is not to this extent.
The old cat put a cold ass on his hot face, sat down stupidly, and turned the computer monitor to Tang Yue to see, and the screen was usually full of rules and regulations that Tang Yue couldn't understand.
"This is a problem found in this simulation test, and now that I've collected them, I'm going to make corrections to the Orion spacecraft's systems and fine-tune details that I couldn't confirm before." The old cat said, "There are 1,842 in all." ”
"When is the next practice test?"
"When I fixed the computer's control system, this test revealed a lot of problems, and there were many details that proved that our estimate was completely wrong, and when I got the program done, I could conduct a second test." The old cat replied, "We can do it as soon as tomorrow, and we will definitely be able to make the Orion spacecraft cross the 10,000-meter hurdle and let it land safely." ”
"Can the second model be successful?" Tang Yue's eyes slanted.
"It's a big deal."
"How big?"
The old cat pondered for a moment, and drew a large pie on the white paper with a pen.
"It's so big."
