After about 15 minutes of rapid maneuvering and orbit change, the Xuanwu-class spacecraft slowly docked in the docking and berthing area of the new Kaohsiung space station.

"Whew! It's safe. Chen Liang piloted the spacecraft into the docking area before relaxing.

Within the scope of the new Kaohsiung space station, the overall safety is very high due to the presence of electromagnetic field generators and condensed matter shields.

Andrew and others were brought into the space station by Liao Qingsong, and at this time, Andrew and others carefully looked at the new Kaohsiung space station.

Unlike the spacesuits of Andrew and others, which are so thick that they look bloated, the spacesuits of Liao Qingsong and others are very close and lightweight.

At first, Andrew thought it was an in-cabin spacesuit, but as soon as he entered the space station, Liao Qingsong took off the extravehicular spacesuit.

"Everyone! You can now take off your spacesuit and change into our in-cabin spacesuit. ”

Liao Qingsong opened a locker and took out some spacesuits in the cabin and handed them to Andrew and the others.

"Thank you."

Andrew and the others hurriedly took it over and put on the spacesuit under the guidance of Liao Qingsong, as for the previous spacesuits of Andrew and the others, they were all packed, and these spacesuits will be transported back to Blue Star for processing.

"Liao, are your extravehicular spacesuits all so thin?" Andrew asked his doubts.

"This is made of new materials, and the comprehensive performance is at least 3~5 times that of ordinary spacesuits." Liao Qingsong said as he opened another locker.

Six holographic bracelets were handcuffed to the hands of Andrew and others, and then Liao Qingsong registered their information one by one.

"This bracelet is your temporary ID card for the new Kaohsiung space station, and it will remind you that those areas are accessible and those are forbidden."

Liao Qingsong popularized some information about the new Kaohsiung space station to Andrew and others, so as not to make them scramble at that time.

"Welcome to the new Kaohsiung space station, I am the base chief here, you can call me the base commander Zhang, or the base chief." Zhang Yunfeng floated over with Dr. Li Nan.

"Hello, Captain Zhang." Andrew and Zhang Yunfeng clasped their hands.

"Which one is the wounded Mr. Alexander?" Zhang Yunfeng glanced at everyone and asked.

"I am!" Alexander, who had no energy, replied.

Zhang Yunfeng introduced: "We have prepared a ward for you, this is Dr. Li Nan from our space station, she is a medical doctor engaged in space disease research. ”

"Can't you send Alexander back to the ground as soon as possible?" Andrew hurriedly asked.

Zhang Yunfeng spread his hands and replied: "Due to this space accident, the first layer of low earth orbit, that is, below 500 kilometers of low earth orbit, is full of space junk, and the spacecraft in the space station does not have the ability to resist space junk for the time being, we need to wait for the ground to transform the spacecraft, it will take about half a month, and you can only stay here temporarily." ”

Andrew also knew the danger of space junk when he heard it, and it was very normal that the new Kaohsiung space station did not want to take risks.

"As for Alexander's injury, we have medical equipment and medicine in the space station, so don't worry about it for the time being." Zhang Yunfeng comforted.

And when Zhang Yunfeng settled the astronauts of the International Space Station, the International Space Station orbited at the same time.

Countless satellites are debris like a torrent of debris as fast as it approaches the scarred International Space Station.

The moment the two sides met, they were filled with devastating kinetic energy and raged in an orbital area.

Sound cannot travel in a vacuum, but debris from the collision is unavoidable, and space agencies around the world have observed the shattered appearance of the ISS.

Suddenly, the "node-1", which is an important connecting module of the International Space Station, was smashed by a solar panel.

In an instant, "Node-1" was torn into two pieces, and with the tearing of "Node-1", the International Space Station instantly entered a state of disintegration.

The entire ISS disintegrated into three large parts and countless small fragments, which began to collide with each other again, and countless small fragments sputtered away in all directions.

The wreckage of the three large space stations is slowly descending into orbit, but due to the relatively high orbital altitude of the International Space Station, it may take several months to completely fall into the atmosphere without human interference.

What's even more terrifying is that the wreckage of the International Space Station is completely out of control, and no one knows where they are going to fall, if it is an uninhabited area such as an ocean or a desert, it is better to say, if it is a densely populated city, the consequences are unimaginable.

In addition, the disintegration of the International Space Station this time has created countless pieces of space junk, which have become a deadly danger in low-Earth orbit.

For a while, the international community's criticism of NASA and Space Exploration became even greater, after all, the initiator of this space accident was Space Exploration Company, to be precise, their company's Starlink 66 satellite.

The Committee on the Outer Space also held an emergency meeting overnight to ask SpaceX to suspend the Starlink program and for NASA to find a way to crash the wreckage of the International Space Station into a spacecraft graveyard in the South Pacific.

SpaceX directly carried a big black cauldron, but his arm couldn't twist his thigh, Elon?? Musk could only announce the suspension of the Starlink program, and before the end of the year, a planned Starlink satellite fell in the South Pacific.

However, NASA does not want to take on the disposal of the wreckage of the International Space Station. Garcia said that NASA is not responsible for the disintegration of the ISS, and that the ISS is also a cooperative project of 16 countries, and if it is really responsible, it will be borne by 16 countries.

In the face of NASA's hooliganism, other countries have no choice but to look at the Space Development Committee with watery eyes, hoping that the Space Development Committee can solve this matter.

However, the Space Development Committee is not interested in this kind of wrongdoer, unless countries are willing to pay money, otherwise there is no need to talk about it.

Now that space in low-earth orbit is full of space junk, it is not a big trouble for the Space Development Commission, and it is enough to directly put a condensed matter shield on the spacecraft, as for whether other countries are dead or alive, it is my business.

New Kaohsiung space station.

Andrew and the others were placed in cabins 23 and 24, which are two standard living cabins, and one standard living cabin can provide accommodation for four people.

Andrew, Luka, Oleg are in cabin 23, while Christina and Jessica are in cabin 24, while the injured Alexander is in cabin 28 (medical cabin).

As a special guest, Andrew and they were confined to a specific area, but they didn't complain, this was someone's space station, and it was already very good to be able to rescue themselves and others.

Andrew was in a passage corridor, but it was a specially designed passage corridor, and the dome here was transparent, through which he could observe the massive new Kaohsiung space station, as well as the starry sky and the sun.

Now that the new Kaohsiung space station is orbiting close to the side of the sun, Andrew is warmed by the sun, which is difficult to do on the International Space Station.

"Andrew." Christina floated over.

"What's wrong? You're not in a good mood. Andrew asked, turning around.

Christina said in a depressed mood: "An hour ago, the ISS had disintegrated. ”

"What is expected, maybe this is fate, we can only accept this reality." Andrew replied helplessly.

For a while, the two of them were silent basking in the sun, the grandeur and power of the new Kaohsiung space station, and the disintegration and collapse of the International Space Station, just like the forces behind them.
