Chapter 271: Abnormal Space Stillness
Feng Jiutian's expression froze, and he didn't answer for a long time, and Qixing said on the side: "Agree, of course you have to agree!" Hugo is so good, whoever disagrees is stupid! ”
Shen Hao also said: "That is, Hugo is now in a high position, and he must make a lot of money." What's more, after being single for so many years, the deposit will not be a decimal, and he has taken a big advantage by promising him! ”
I almost laughed out loud, secretly scolding Shen Hao for not being able to speak.
Feng Jiutian also raised his eyebrows when he heard this, glared at Shen Hao angrily, and said, "Do you think I will be a woman who is greedy for money?" Besides, it's not certain that either of us has money! ”
Shen Hao also realized that he had said the wrong thing just now, and replied worriedly: "Of course, the doctor's reputation is all over the world, and naturally he is not bad for money, but I forgot about it." ”
As soon as they interrupted like this, they brought over the matter why Feng Jiutian would join the action. I think maybe what Shen Hao said makes sense, Feng Jiutian really came to "gild" this time.
At this time, a message came from the command center that in another hour, we would be at the mission site and we would be ready for action.
All of us immediately stopped talking and went back to our seats. I looked outside, and in the dark cosmic space, I couldn't see anything else except those stars for the time being.
I instructed the others, "Sort out the equipment you need to carry, check all the weapons again, and once we find the target, we'll start moving according to the plan." ”
Except for Instructor Qian and Instructor Li who stayed in the main control cabin to observe, all seven of us went to the equipment cabin. We've already prepared everything we want to bring, and then we do a final check on each item again.
The gravity of space has helped us solve the problem of weight, so we can carry some of the heavier equipment, such as space cutters. The shells of space flying objects are made of special metals, which are resistant to high temperatures and ultra-hardness, and must be cut by a space cutter, which is a sharp weapon for dealing with space metals.
In addition to the rest of the small equipment for various purposes, each person has to carry a backpack with a large capacity.
Then there are the weapons, and we are equipped with electromagnetic orbital guns developed by the China National Space Administration for this operation. This is the third version of the improved version, which is similar in size and weight to ordinary weapons, and uses the magazine reloading method. The only difference from normal weapons is that in order to keep the weapon charged, there is a wire behind the gun that needs to be connected to our spacesuit.
The system of guns is also very complete, in addition to pistols, there are also various long guns, and we have chosen the weapons that we are good at according to our personal habits.
However, there are no sniper rifles in space weapons, only small railguns with sights, although they look similar in size to sniper rifles, but they weigh a lot more than ordinary sniper rifles.
An Beimo chose this gun without hesitation, and in comparison, she has the strongest firepower among our people.
In fact, during the training, the instructors did not recommend An Beimo to choose this weapon, they felt that it was not suitable for a girl to use such a lethal weapon, and if there was no gravity, ordinary people would not be able to bear its weight for a long time.
As a result, An Beimo used the facts to tell them that she was not an ordinary woman at all.
Without gravity, An Beimo can easily hold this railgun flat with one hand to shoot, and it is not a problem to carry it for long-distance running. In addition, An Beimo's accuracy in using long-range weapons is inferior even to the instructor.
After seeing An Beimo's strength, the instructors found that this beauty who usually doesn't like to talk and always has a cold face is so terrifying, which completely refreshes their recognition of beautiful women.
With the equipment, we returned to the main control cabin to wait, and seeing that the hour was about to pass, Instructor Li suddenly shouted to us: "The target has been found!" ”
We looked out of the cabin together, but we didn't find anything. Instructor Qian put the target screen on the big screen, and we looked carefully for a long time before we saw a tiny white dot.
I pointed to the white dot and asked, "This is the missing Long Range-2 rocket?" ”
Instructor Li said: "That's right, it's it, we can be regarded as having found it." ”
I said, "Can you zoom in on it?" ”
Instructor Qian replied, "Yes!" After saying that, he adjusted the picture and magnified the white dot several times.
At this point, we were still some distance from the target, and we still couldn't see it very clearly, and we could only vaguely see that it was a disassembled rocket.
After looking at it for a while, Shen Hao asked, "Is this rocket just so stationary and motionless in space?" ”
Instructor Qian looked at the electronic data and replied, "Judging from the data, yes. It's so weird, how can it float here? ”
Seeing that we looked at him in bewilderment, Instructor Qian explained: "The current state of the Yuantu-2 rocket is not long after the second disassembly. Normally, it should continue in the direction of the mission. But now it's just stopping here, it's completely illogical. ”
Feng Jiutian said: "Maybe it's malfunctioning, the communication is also interrupted, and it can't go up or down, it's trapped here." ”
Instructor Zhao next to him said, "That's not right! If so, then the astronauts on it can completely abandon the mission and return to Earth in the case of the rocket cannot be repaired. But you can see ......," he continued, pointing to the blurred white shadow on the screen, "The return capsule on the rocket is still there, indicating that the astronauts are still on it." Since they have been stuck here for so many days, why don't they return home? ”
This question silenced everyone, and no one could answer it.
I asked, "Yuantu-2 went into space and suddenly cut off all contact with Earth, right?" ”
Instructor Zhao nodded, and I continued to ask, "Including the NASA's remote control of it also failed at the same time?" ”
Instructor Zhao said, "Yes. Let's put it this way, Yuantu-2 completely disappeared from our vision in an instant, as if it was invisible. All we have left is the last place where it disappeared, the place we're going to now. ”
"That's not right, don't you think it's weird?" I asked everyone, "If it's a malfunction, then this rocket should be drifting aimlessly in space." According to the correct logical analysis, we should not be able to see it here. ”
As soon as I reminded them, several instructors came to their senses first, and they looked at each other with solemn faces.
Shen Hao saw that their faces had changed drastically, and he didn't understand the meaning of my words, so he asked me, "What is it that we can't see it?" ”
I explained: "Just now Instructor Qian said that Yuantu No. 2 stayed here just after the second disintegration. If you think about it, it can be decomposed, which means that the rocket was in flight at that time. Even if there is an emergency failure that causes the rocket to be paralyzed, it should keep drifting forward, but it should never just stand still. ”
Seeing that Shen Hao still didn't understand, I had to explain to him in another way: "It's like we are driving, don't you step on the accelerator, and the car will stop in place?" ”
Shen Hao suddenly realized and said, "That's right! The car will continue to slide forward due to inertia. As soon as I said that, I understood that there was something really wrong with this rocket. ”
I said, "yes, it looks like there's something else going on with the Long Journey 2 that we don't know about." ”
Compass One was slowly approaching the Longhaul 2 rocket, and the white shadow was gradually becoming clear. At this time, Instructor Qian and Instructor Li sat down nervously in front of the console and said to us, "We're going to turn on the manual control mode!" ”
After some tedious operations between the two of them, Instructor Qian began to take over the computer as the main controller and became the driver of Compass One. Instructor Li is the deputy controller, assisting Instructor Qian to control the Compass No. 1. The two of them kept reporting various data and checking the flight trajectory. Seeing them look like they were facing great enemies made the rest of us a little nervous.
Suddenly, An Beimo pointed to the position next to the No. 2 white shadow on the screen, and asked, "What is this?" ”
We were all stunned, the place pointed by An Beimo's finger was a dark area of the universe, and we didn't see anything.
Instructor Sun stared at it for a long time, and said to An Beimo: "There's nothing there, are you dazzled?" ”
"That's not right!" An Beimo said very resolutely: "There must be something there, you take a closer look." ”
At this time, Instructor Li said: "There is indeed nothing there, if there is really something, it will be immediately discovered by the scanner of Compass One." ”
An Beimo said in a cold voice: "You don't rely on instruments for everything, sometimes people's eyes are sharper than a bunch of iron parts, I advise you to take a good look before making a conclusion." ”
Among all the people, I may be the only one who is second only to An Beimo's eyesight. Since An Beimo said it, there must have been a discovery, and I condensed my vision and stared at the black ** domain, as if I vaguely saw the existence of something.
I hurriedly said, "The goddess is right, I found out too." Let's be vigilant and be careful. That thing can evade our detector, it's certainly not a good thing! ”
Instructor Qian said in disbelief: "You also saw it? This is impossible, the detector of Compass 1 can even detect space junk without any mistakes, it is impossible for the eyes to see, but it cannot detect the situation! ”
At this time, Shen Hao said unceremoniously: "You guys! It's just that after being regulated for too long, the brain has become dead. Our people have seen it, and you're still there saying that it's impossible. Do you have to wait for you to hit your head before you admit the truth? ”
was so directly ridiculed by Shen Hao, and the faces of the four instructors were not very good-looking. I hurriedly said to Shen Hao: "Don't talk like that, the team should be considerate of each other, don't be weird at every turn." ”
At this time, Feng Jiutian said in the back: "I think there is nothing wrong with what the beast said!" ”
