Chapter 42 The International Space Station
The ship is flying within the established orbit, and at this moment it has entered the near-Earth space region.
Li Jun sat on the second floor and rested for a while, then unbuckled his seat belt and prepared to go back to the cockpit.
After unbuckling the seat belt, absorb the ice from your feet and walk downward.
At this moment, the ship is flying around the earth at an altitude of 500 kilometers above the earth, and it is still increasing its altitude little by little.
At this moment, the ship has reached a speed of eight thousand meters per hour, and everyone has a feeling of weightlessness.
None of the ten members of Li Jun's squad had undergone professional training, and after the ship was stable, they unfastened their seat belts.
Due to weightlessness, everyone made a lot of jokes, but everyone didn't mention the things before take-off at the moment, and a group of people were still laughing and laughing.
Fortunately, a group of engineers next to him taught for a while, and everyone stabilized their figures.
Mu Mu felt this way for the first time in his life, he was light and fluttering, and it felt very fun.
Regardless of where he floated alone to play in a circle, the rest of the people sat back in their seats, fastened their seat belts, and Mu Mu was the only one to play.
After Mu Mu played for a while, Sun Qian was ready to pull Mu Mu to her side, wanting her to sit next to her, for fear that she would not be able to control her body, and if she touched some mechanism button on the ship, it would be troublesome.
Li Jun and they are a team of ten people, and today is the first time to make a ship, and they don't understand anything. Sun Qian also didn't want to cause trouble to Li Junping, so she directly pulled Mu Mu over.
"Mumu, sit down, stay well, there will be time to play in the future."
Mu Mu was playing on the rise, and after being pressed to the seat, he nodded.
She has been among several people since she was a child, and she listened to Li Jun's words the most, and then went to Sun Qian.
The two of them have been very good to her since she was a child, and she has long regarded the two of them as her closest people in this world.
In the cockpit, Li Jun always had a cold face and did not say a word to Yi Chuan.
Although the giant bat crisis was safely resolved just now, it was because of Yi Chuan's selfishness that several fighter pilots were sacrificed for no reason, and everyone on the entire ship was almost buried.
Li Jun saw clearly on the ship just now, one fighter plane after another was besieged by giant bats until they finally fell.
There were several surviving pilots who were dismembered by a swarm of bats after the plane crashed.
Thinking of this, Li Jun sighed helplessly in his heart.
I couldn't help it at that time, after all, the driver's seat was not my own, and I didn't expect Yi Chuan to suddenly go crazy at that time, and he didn't even listen to the orders of his superiors.
Li Jun closed his eyes directly and pretended to sleep, he knew that now was not the time to think about this problem, he was a little unable to see through Yi Chuan now, so it was better not to question him first, after all, there were dozens of people sitting behind the ship.
At this moment, Yi Chuan, who had been silent, suddenly said something excitedly.
"It's here!"
When Li Jun heard this, he opened his eyes suddenly, looked ahead, and saw a shining object through the front shield of the ship.
This is the transit point for this lunar mission.
International Space Station.
The distance is a little far, and I can't see it clearly, only the upper and lower ends are pointed, and the whole is like a spinning top.
It wasn't until a minute later that the ship approached, and the huge International Space Station was clearly presented in front of Li Jun's eyes.
Li Juncai saw its true face clearly.
The entire circular ISS is constantly rotating around the central axis.
The entire space station, in the middle, is a huge axis, from the inside out, connected to a small hollow tire-shaped disk, and externally connected to a large hollow disk. In addition to several connection points of the main body, there are countless frames of different thicknesses connecting with each other.
Yi Chuan carefully steered the ship and slowly approached the space station.
At this time, several voices came out of the quantum communication headset.
"Hello, please inform me of your nationality."
Li Jun could hear that this person's language was a little blunt, obviously not from country Z, it should be a foreign language, and the quantum communicator was automatically converted into Chinese language.
Yi Chuan immediately replied.
"Country Z!"
"Okay, good friends. The space station of country Z is the tenth, and it can be connected at this moment, good luck. Friend. ”
"Thank you!"
Yi Chuan replied, and drove the ship close to the outer ring of the space station.
Yi Chuan found the No. 10 position. Directly brought the ship up. Adjust the speed of the ship to the same as the speed of the space station's operation.
At the same speed, the ship appears to be stationary outside the space station.
"This is the space station of country Z, please confirm your identity."
Another voice came from the quantum communicator.
Yi Chuan sent the ship's message over.
"Convergence is allowed."
As soon as the voice in the communicator fell, I saw that the hatch of the tenth compartment opened, and a docking port with a diameter of about one meter stretched out, and Yi Chuan opened the panel, which showed the four-dimensional graphics of the entire ship.
Then Yi Chuan opened a titanium steel plate on the side of the ship, and a slightly smaller docking port stretched out.
Li Jun saw the four-dimensional graphics clearly during the whole process, Yi Chuan stared closely at the four-dimensional graphics on the panel, and after aligning the two ports, he drove the ship slightly closer to the station body of the space station.
The two ports were also slowly approaching, and Li Jun knew that this process must have enough care, patience, and superb technology, and at this moment, his heart was also raised in his throat.
If this is uncontrollable and crashes into the space station, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Yi Chuan turned the main steering lever slightly, and fine beads of sweat were already oozing from his head.
The two ports are getting closer and closer, and they are about to be connected, and Li Jun doesn't dare to come out at the moment, for fear of disturbing Yi Chuan.
It took a full two minutes for Li Juncai to see Yi Chuan slowly exhale.
At this moment, the two ports were connected, and the ship's petite docking port was inserted directly into the port protruding from the hatch.
When the port was inserted to a depth of one meter, Yi Chuan pressed the button of the port lock, and the small docking port on the ship, the deep part, directly protruded with a circle of inverted hook locks, and was tightly stuck in the docking port at the other end.
Yi Chuan gently wiped the sweat and reported directly.
"The docking has been successful."
"Roger!"
A voice came from the quantum communicator. After the sound, the docking port in the space station began to retract.
Yi Chuan directly turned off the ship and shut down the ship as a whole.
Then he said a word to everyone on the ship through the headset.
"We're here and ready to disembark."
He was the first to walk out, towards the hatch on the ship's flank. Li Jun looked at it and followed.
At this moment, the ship has successfully docked with the space station as a whole, following the space station, rotating around the central axis together, and there is no sense of weightlessness inside the ship, and it has walked to the side hatch as if it were walking on the ground. Waiting for the final docking procedure between the ship's hatch and the space station's hatch.
The docking port of the space station, by pulling the docking port of the ship, has brought the hatches of the two objects close together.
Yi Chuan pulled down on a lever next to the hatch.
"Click! Click! Click! ”
The external latches on the exterior of the ship's hatch have also been tightened with the latches of the space station.
Li Jun heard a few more gears turning and the sound of chains.
This is designed to seal the hatch door, and the design has always been round locking ring, and the lock form a double insurance, which further ensures the tightness of the connection.
Yi Chuan didn't say much, and after hearing the sound stop, he directly pulled down the switch handle of the hatch.
Yi Chuan opened the ship's hatch directly and walked out.
Immediately after that, the rest of the people walked over one after another.
Li Jun stayed at the end, and after confirming that there was no one in the ship, he also drilled over.
This is the real time that everyone has set foot on the space station.
Li Jun glanced at it, and in front of him was a slightly curved corridor, and on both sides of the corridor, there were rooms one after another.
Li Jun saw Yi Chuan leading the group to the left, and he also hurried a few steps to catch up with everyone.
After walking a distance of about a hundred meters, Yi Chuan stopped in front of a room.
Li Jun looked at the door number.
"The Office of the Commander-in-Chief of the International Space Station Z."
Yi Chuan rang the doorbell, and a voice with a hint of anger came out of it.
"Come in!"
Yi Chuan turned his head and said to the crowd.
"You wait here for a while, and Captain Li and I can go in."
Everyone nodded, and when Li Jun heard it, he also took a few steps forward and came to the door of the room.
Yi Chuan must have heard the anger of the people inside, and he would inevitably be reprimanded after entering, he was a good face, and he didn't want to lose face in front of a group of people, so he could only say this.
A group of people were waiting outside the room now, Yi Chuan pushed the door open, and Li Jun followed him in.
Everyone was outside now, and since it was the first time they had come up, they were all looking left and right with some curiosity.
It's just that in this corridor, except for the doors on both sides, the rest of the place is flat titanium alloy steel plates.
The entire space station was jointly built by various countries at great expense. The whole is made of titanium alloy, and the important parts are made of more valuable carbon and titanium alloys.
Everyone looked left and right, and after seeing that there was nothing unusual, they waited quietly outside the office door.
After Li Jun followed Yi Chuan in. At a glance, I saw a middle-aged man sitting behind the table in front of him, and where he sat gave people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
The middle-aged man was looking up at the two of them, and when his eyes swept over Yi Chuan, there was obviously a hint of sneer in his eyes.
Li Jun looked at him and smiled slightly and asked.
"Uncle Chang is good."
Before coming up, Li Guangqi had already told him that now in the International Space Station, the head of country Z, Chang Wei, is an executive within the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It can be regarded as an old friend with Lee Kwang-kee.
Chang Wei nodded at this Li Jun.
"Li Jun, yes, I just talked to your father on the phone. Yes, it does look like your father. ”
Li Jun smiled.
Chang Wei didn't speak, but lowered his head and looked at the information in his hand.
Li Jun and Yi Chuan waited for more than a minute, only listening to Chang Wei slowly speak.
"Yi Chuan?" Stared directly at Yi Chuan and asked.
Yi Chuan replied immediately.
"Yes!"
Chang Wei sneered.
"Hehe, the people are not big, and the attention is not small. Do you know what mistakes you made? ”
Yi Chuan said. "Know! did not follow Chief Engineer Li's orders. Unauthorized take-off. ”
Chang Wei still smiled coldly, and then straightened his face. His national character face immediately gave people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
"Listening to your tone, you're quite proud?"
Yi Chuan just raised his head slightly, and didn't speak, but his expression had already revealed his psychological thoughts.
"Young people, it's not good to be too public. Got it? ”
Chang Wei asked angrily.
"Do you know how many comrades we have sacrificed just because of your assertion this time! Do you know how much money the country has invested in training a fighter pilot? You are wasting national resources in vain this time! Do you understand? ”
Yi Chuan also knew that because of his unauthorized take-off this time, more than a dozen fighter pilots were sacrificed later. But the slightest pride in his heart did not allow him to admit his mistakes like this.
"But our mission this time was successful in the end."
Yi Chuan retorted, but his tone was no longer as tough as before.
This sentence directly sneered at Chang Wei.
"Hehe, you succeeded? If Li Jun didn't help you, would you have been able to make it up? If it weren't for the dozen or so drivers who fought desperately to block the bombardment of the giant bats for you, would you have succeeded? Can you succeed without these people? ”
A few rhetorical questions in a row directly smashed Yi Chuan's proud heart.
Yi Chuan twisted his head to the side.
Chang Wei saw that Yi Chuan didn't answer, so he didn't pay attention to him anymore. Said to this Li Jun.
"From now on, you are the first commander-in-chief of this team, and Yi Chuan will give you a hand. Do you understand? ”
Li Jun was a little dazed, why did he suddenly talk about himself? But he nodded.
"Yes!!"
"Alright, the three lounges next door to me, you can assign them yourself. By the way, bring me the supplies transported on the ship. ”
Li Jun nodded in agreement.
Chang Wei pressed the intercom on the desktop.
"Hey. Little Joe, come over here. ”
I only heard an answer from the other side.
"Yes."
After hanging up the intercom, Chang Wei waved his hand and signaled that the two of them could go out.
Li Jun turned around and opened the door and walked out, the difference was that this time it was Yi Chuan who followed him before coming out.
After Li Jun came out, he assigned the room to the group.
Thirty people, exactly ten people in one room. In the room of the space station, ten people can live at a time, which is more than enough.
Li Jun's team is exactly ten people, and ten people just live in one room.
Although there are men and women, in outer space, they all wear aviation equipment and clothing when they sleep, so they are not so particular.
Li Jun pushed open the door and walked in, the whole room was very spacey, and it was divided into ten small squares equally using the grid board, exactly ten people, one for each person.
"Knock knock!" At this time, there was a knock on the door, and since the door was made of titanium alloy steel plate, it sounded more like someone was slamming the door.
"Here we are." Li Jun shouted, and hurriedly walked over to open the door.
There was a girl of the same age as Li Jun standing at the door, with short hair, a little white face revealing a hint of coldness, and she didn't know what she was chewing in her mouth, with a pair of cold eyes, she looked Li Jun up and down and asked.
"You're Li Jun?"
Li Jun nodded, and then asked politely.
"What's the matter?"
The woman didn't answer his question, just turned around and said.
"Whoever brought you, come with me."
Li Jun didn't know why, but he had just come here, and he wasn't very clear about any situation, so he had to turn his head and say.
"The women rest, and all the men follow me."
Then he took Zhang Qiang, Li Lin, and Bai Qi and a few people followed the woman over.
Walking to the place where the ship was connected, the woman said to Li Jun.
"Our leader just told you, right? Help move things. ”
Only then did Li Jun remember that before going out just now, Chang Wei asked him to help carry the supplies he brought over this time.
Then he nodded, and without saying much, he walked into the ship, and in the transport compartment at the back of the ship, he found the supplies he brought this time.
"I'll go! That's too much, when are we going to move in? ”
Zhang Qiang looked at the pile of materials like a mountain in front of him.
Li Jun shook his head, there is no way, now go to Yi Chuan and them for help, it is equivalent to looking for excitement.
So he turned back and asked the woman.
"Hey! Anyone else? With so many things, when are the five of us going to move there? ”
The woman's cold eyes looked at Li Jun, and her mouth still kept chewing something.
"First of all, I don't call: Hey, my name is Qiao Xiaoqiao, besides, are you here these people? What about the others? ”
Li Jun said.
"That, Comrade Xiao Qiao, there are quite a lot of people here from us, but there were some misunderstandings before, and it's inconvenient for me to go to them, you see, ......"
I only heard Xiao Qiao say indifferently.
"That's your business, not mine. It's up to you to do it yourself. ”
Zhang Qiang stopped doing it when he heard it, and immediately said.
"Hey! I'm grumpy! Grandpa, I'm not doing it anymore! Whoever loves to do it, who does it! ”
After speaking, he glared at Xiao Qiao, but this woman's temperament has been cold to a certain extent, and she didn't pay attention to what Zhang Qiang said, just turned her head and said.
"I'm just talking, it's your own business whether you do it or not."
When Zhang Qiang heard this, he was about to run away.
Li Jun walked over, pulled him, and after a few words of persuasion, Zhang Qiang calmed down.
"Okay, let's move, the most of us is to take a long time, it's okay."
Li Jun's idea is.
A few of them will stay here for a day, and they will leave tomorrow afternoon, so there is no need to make trouble with others for this trivial matter.
He must be a little dissatisfied with this woman's way of doing things, but she is a woman, what can you do with her.
Seeing Li Jun and the others start to move, Xiao Qiao shook his head and walked out.
After a while, I saw Yi Chuan walking in with another group of engineers.
Li Jun looked at them and didn't say much.
I heard Qiao Xiaoqiao say.
"You guys are too slow, it's a waste of my time, and there are a lot of people looking for them, so you can be faster. Hurry up and move, I have other things to do. ”
Zhang Qiang turned his head and glared at Xiao Qiao.
"Humph!" Leng snorted. Then he turned his head and continued to carry the supplies.
Qiao Xiaoqiao was dissatisfied with Zhang Qiang, but just smiled coldly.
He stood by and watched the crowd.
The twenty-odd people carried it a lot faster, but it took a full four hours to complete the transportation of all the supplies.
