Chapter 486: Our Armor Powder Crushes
The sound of metal clashing is constantly coming, and there is the occasional harsh sound of metal rubbing, as well as the vibration and shaking caused by the space junk constantly colliding into it.
Fortunately, the tonnage of the space station is large enough, the shaking is not very violent, and it is strong enough, although there are all kinds of discomfort, but there is no need to worry about the space station being smashed like in the movie.
The dim light, which had already been turned into due to the power rationing, continued to flicker with the impact, which made the light it provide less than the bright light emitted by the monitor, and also illuminated the safe room blue.
Li Danwen and Zhang Camera were nervous and didn't dare to speak, so Yang Nianming was still staring at the data on the monitor.
Seeing Li Danwen and Zhang Cameraman sitting honestly holding on to their seat belts and shaking their bodies with the space station, Yang Nianming said to them, "Don't be nervous, so far there have been no reports of broken bulkheads, but the solar panels have been damaged by 34%. The track was slightly off, but the engine was working to maintain the track and orientation. ”
Knowing that Yang Nianming was adjusting the atmosphere, and there was only the sound of metal hitting just now, there was no sound of speaking, and the atmosphere was indeed a little dignified, so Li Danwen opened his mouth and said, "Squad Leader Yang, I'm ...... We were either nervous, or we were shaking too violently and a little uncomfortable. ”
Shaking a lot?
Yang Nianming felt that this was not as violent as the airplane met the air flow and the car ran off-road, but thinking that it was the first time they came to space, this shaking was not comparable to the shaking energy of the plane and the car, this was the boundless space outside.
So he didn't break it down, and said directly, "Now it's because it hasn't been built yet, and the tonnage is still a little smaller, so it will shake when it hits, and after the construction of the space station is completed, the weight of nearly 6,000 tons is not so easy to hit." ”
"yes, we did our homework when we came up, and it seems that all the items in space now add up to only a few thousand tons, so ...... Huh, it seems to have stopped? ”
Cameraman Zhang was also impressed, but before he could finish speaking, he noticed that the space station was no longer shaking, and the flickering lights had stabilized.
"It seems to be true," Yang Nianming put his gaze on the screen again, and found that sure enough, the large army had passed, and only the scattered small fragments behind were left.
The operational data graph they used internally was much more detailed than what had been published, and the level of detail in the tracking of the One was simply outrageous, accurate to three centimeters in such a short period of time.
In fact, what has some impact on the new Tiangong space station is not the size of the garbage, but the material of the garbage. The most that aluminum alloy stuff is bumping into it is a sound, and for the shell material, they are too soft.
Only some titanium alloy or other hard material will leave traces on the shell of the new space station.
"Stay here, don't move, I'll take a look."
Yang Nianming first looked at the surveillance screens in various places, then turned on his seat belt and stood up, and said in the call channel, "Liu Quan, are you okay over there?" ”
"It's okay, squad leader, the impact seems to have stopped, and the data shows that the debris cloud has basically passed, but there is no new order on the ground now, I don't know if it's signal interference." Liu Quan on the other side replied.
"Well, it's okay," Yang Nianming said as he walked out, "I also showed the past here, don't wait for the ground command first, come out to check the loss." ”
"Okay, squad leader, we'll be right out." Liu Quan replied.
Walking in the wide corridor wearing electromagnetic shoes, Yang Nianming felt that it was okay here, there was nothing in the first place, so it was still very tidy here.
When I came to the living area, I met Liu Quan and them, everyone was safe and sound, and the living area was fine.
Since there is no gravity here, most of the equipment and things are fixed, and some are placed in special cabinets and boxes, and the shaking just now is that some fixed things that are not very strong float up.
"Space station, this is the ground command center, the debris group has passed, please confirm the actual situation, how are you there now?"
As they checked, communications on the ground suddenly rang out in the communication channel.
Yang Nianming heard this voice and hurriedly came to the video monitor to turn on the monitor, and immediately saw Dong Chen and Bai Hongxian, as well as the extra Mr. Sun and several supervisors and others, it seems that they have also rushed over.
"Chairman, Mr. Sun, and Commander Bai, confirm that the debris cloud has passed, and we are checking the damage."
"Yang Nianming, are everyone okay? How's that going? Dong Chen asked over there.
"Chairman, everyone is fine, the situation is not very clear now, some of the solar panels that can be seen in the monitoring are scrapped, and now the window protection panel has not been opened, and the external situation can not be seen, and the specific robot will be sent out to take a look." Yang Nianming replied.
"You are like this, Yang Nianming," Dong Chen thought for a while and said, "You directly send the robot out, and we will also open a live broadcast here, and we will directly broadcast the post-disaster situation." ”
Before Yang Nianming could speak, Sun Hao next to Dong Chen said, "Chairman, isn't this too risky?" After all, the situation has not been confirmed, is it appropriate to let the outside world know directly? ”
"Don't take risks, now Yang Nianming is the best proof that they are alive, and we haven't received any cabin decompression alerts here, indicating that space junk has not penetrated the shell of the space station at all." Dong Chen shook his head and said.
"And now people from the outside should be eager to know the results."
What Dong Chen said is not unreasonable, because the arc space released the operation information, those countries that were shrouded in orbit moved, and the time when the Tiangong space station was hit was known to the whole world.
When the Xintiangong space station was hit, the whole world was sweating.
Don't look at it has only been built for more than a month, but it has already surpassed the International Space Station to become the heaviest tonnage and largest man-made facility in space.
Not to mention the fact that there is an International Space Station underneath it.
Just when people thought that the earth's aerospace industry was going to be cool, the signal of the new Tiangong space station was still flickering there, and when people couldn't figure it out, the live broadcast of the black screen of arc technology lit up again.
It's still so deep in the dark space, especially when the audience knows what's going on, and they feel that this kind of black is the kind of black that penetrates people.
But as the camera slowly turns, a huge man-made structure appears in the eyes of the audience against the backdrop of the earth.
Unexpectedly...... It's all right?!
When the camera zoomed in, they found that although it had not disintegrated, it was also scarred, especially on the outer wall of the side that received the impact, which was full of bump marks and scratches, and the fragile solar panels were even more dilapidated.
However, the side is much better, and the basic version of the Tiangong space station and the two original living modules that are protected in the back are not at all.
It's nothing short of a miracle.
And at this time, everyone knew that the material used by arc space to build a new space station must be extraordinary, not the common space station shell material, so it can withstand such an impact.
And the damage is not big, and there is nothing to do inside, as long as the broken solar panel is replaced, it can run perfectly again.
It's just that why Arc Space has not been announced to the public? Until now, the materials used have not been disclosed, and people can only understand this as a trade secret.
Since the debris cloud actually moved downward from a slightly higher orbit, especially under the influence of the initial impact force, the new Tiangong space station took the old space station to a higher orbit after it was safe, and as long as it left the large-scale debris cloud, it was very safe.
The International Space Station below suffered, and they didn't have time to move at a speed, and they knew they couldn't resist, so they had to let the astronauts into the manned spacecraft and abandon the space station.
