Yang Rui slowly climbed out of the preparation room along the hanging ladder, and when his head just showed out of the cabin, a huge sense of emptiness suddenly enveloped his thinking. Space is secluded and empty, and the dazzling white paint of the station's exterior looks extremely jumpy against the dark background of outer space.

When Yang Rui got out of the cabin, he suddenly said: "I have left the cabin, I feel good, please rest assured that the motherland and the people." ”

All of a sudden, there was a cacophony of laughter in the headphones. James said, "Ray, don't make a fuss. The BBC and CNN are broadcasting your extravehicular operations live, and there are now 400 million people around the world watching you. Look at the camera and wave your hand. ”

Yang Zhong waved his hand like a camera lightly and said, "Good morning, Earth." ”

James paid close attention to the various instruments of the integrated monitor, and said in a somewhat worried tone: "The intensity of gamma rays is increasing, and it was originally planned to be an hour and forty-five minutes of extravehicular operation, I hope you can shorten the time as much as possible." ”

At this time, Yang Rui was slowly climbing the ladder leading to the main panel, and he also noticed this wonderful change, and there was constantly irregular turbulence around him, although this was not the first time he had encountered it, but it was the most frequent turbulence.

The noise in the headphones was getting worse and worse, and he had to stop, turning down the volume a little on the integrated console on his arm, and he replied: "I'll try to control it in one hour and twenty minutes, and it's over!" ”

The road to the battery motherboard was only one hundred and fifty meters away, but it took Yang Rui twenty minutes to walk half the way. He paused in the middle to rest, grasped the suspension ladder with both hands, and turned his head to look back.

Directly in front of the eye is the blue planet, with clouds that stretch for thousands of kilometers intermittently, making the vast Pacific Ocean seem fragmented. On the right side of the Pacific Ocean, thick swirling low-pressure clouds are wrapping around North America, and there is no land in sight.

Yang Rui said into the walkie-talkie: "I saw that the weather in Houston is terrible today, there must be a storm, I don't know if my girlfriend forgot to collect her clothes, she always forgets this." ”

After taking a few breaths, he continued to crawl upward, seeing the damaged solar panel become more and more visible.

"The command module, this is Astronaut 1, and the meteorite hit the A4 panel, causing damage about a meter in diameter."

James couldn't stand the growing noise of interference in the headphones, he took off the headphones, just raised them in his ear and replied: "Command cabin received, remove the damaged battery panel, and return immediately!" The gamma ray intensity is close to the warning range, repeat, the gamma ray intensity is close to the warning range, over. ”

Yang Rui replied: "Astronaut 1 received." ”

After the rest of the journey, he felt some difficulty breathing, and at first he thought there was a problem with the oxygen supply system, but the oxygen and ventilation system lights were green. In the end, he attributed it to his own psychological pressure, but what made him wonder why he, who had the most experience in extravehicular operations, felt so nervous and uneasy this time.

Finally climbed to the end of the suspension ladder, and the solar panels were close to him.

He tugged at the leash he had lowered, keeping it loose at all times. After that, the micro booster system was activated, and two puffs of white smoke were emitted with the comprehensive package behind him.

Yang Rui's body broke away from the bulkhead and slowly flew upward, and when he reached the solar panel unit, he reached out and grabbed the handrail, allowing his body to stop.

He then pulled out the hook at his waist and secured himself to the connection on the panel, which he could touch at any time.

"Command module, this is Astronaut One, I've reached the damaged location, everything is fine, start working immediately."

James's anxious voice came from the headphones: "Speed up the action, the gamma ray intensity has reached the realm range." ”

"Astronaut One understands."

Although Yang Rui replied like this, he didn't care about James's words, it was not the first time he had encountered this kind of thing. It's just that for James, who entered the space station for the first time, gamma rays to the realm range is still a big event, but in Yang Rui's eyes, it is very common.

Yang Rui opened the operation unit of the battery board connection step by step. The design of this panel is very human, taking into account a lot of unknowns. As long as the hydraulic system of this unit is turned off and the connection buckle is disconnected, the damaged battery panel can fall off on its own and become new space junk.

Yang Zhong reached out and turned off the hydraulic system, and after the indicator light above showed red, he said, "The hydraulic system of unit A4 is turned off. ”

When he was about to open the link, he suddenly saw a meteorite the size of a pebble flying past him at high speed in the peripheral eye of his vision. Hit the A9 solar panel next to it

Space was quiet because the vacuum did not transmit sounds, so the impact did not make any sound.

This time was the same, Yang Rui turned his head to look. The A9 panel also had a hole, and traces of red gas were coming out of the hole.

"The command module, the A9 battery plate was also hit. The extent of the damage is unknown. ”

James said eagerly in the headset: "Astronaut One, after completing the disassembly of the A4 battery panel, return to the capsule immediately." Repeat, after completing the disassembly of the A4 battery panel, return to the cabin immediately. ”

Yang Rui let out a sigh of relief, turned his head back, refocused, and prepared to complete the last action: unplugging the switch of the connecting buckle.

At this moment, the turbulence suddenly strengthened, causing his body to shake incessantly, and he hurriedly grabbed the handrail, and the huge thrust allowed him to get out of his working position and was thrown aside, fortunately there was a towing rope, otherwise he would have been thrown into the dark space.

In front of his eyes, countless tiny meteorites were flying towards the space station with red comet tails, and he exclaimed: "Command module, this is Astronaut One, a large number of meteorites have been found, and a large number of meteorites have been found. ”

At this time, the headphones were already drowned out by noise, and James's voice could no longer be heard. The huge space station also shook in an instant, and the huge capsule seemed to be squeezed by the strong pressure, almost twisted.

Yang Rui shouted: "Command cabin, what's going on!" Reply! ”

Still no reply.

The turbulence became more and more intense, driving Yang Rui's body to crash around, and he had to hold on to the handrails to maintain his balance, and those tiny meteorites shot into various parts of the space station like dense machine gun bullets. Bursting firelight was everywhere, and red smoke and dust in front of him covered his vision.

He kept yelling: "Command Module, recover the towing rope!" Repeat, recycle the tow rope. ”

There was still no reply from James.

At this moment, a meteorite with a diameter of thirty meters appeared in Yang Rui's line of sight, like a huge and heavy cannonball, silently smashing towards the main module of the International Space Station at an unimaginable speed.

"it!" Yang Rui shouted, but it was too late, and the meteorite hit the side of the main cabin.

In an instant, the main cabin was suddenly torn apart, and there were a series of explosions inside, and the huge flames and air currents violently lifted Yang Chong, and he could no longer hold the handrail no matter what, and his body was thrown into the dark space.

Yang Rui struggled all fours, but to no avail, this was not underwater, and there was no strength for him to maintain the balance of his body. The force of the explosion threw him away from the ISS, and he could never go back. He could only watch as the huge space home, which condensed countless human wisdom, turned into a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron in the continuous explosion, scattered like fireworks and disappeared from his sight.

Yang Rui's consciousness was still sober, he knew that he would definitely die this time, there was no hope of survival, and he was completely desperate as he watched the earth gradually move away from him.

The spare oxygen in the spacesuit was only enough for him to breathe for thirty minutes, which meant that these thirty minutes were the last moments of his life.

Although Yang Rui's body moved away from the earth at high speed, he waved his arms vigorously, like a drowning man struggling to get back to the water.

But after all, this is not in the water, but in outer space, and everything he does is to no avail. I could only watch my body fall into the dark abyss.

At this moment, a strange brilliance appeared behind Yang Rui, his body was constantly rolling, allowing him to see that in the depths of darkness, there was a strange brilliance that was gradually expanding, like extending everywhere, the magnificent color and flowing trajectory were like a blooming rose, countless nebulae appeared and disappeared from time to time, until it bloomed to the extreme, it had already covered the entire outer space, and the black hole in the middle of the "flower" gradually expanded and rotated, driving the entire "flower" to rotate. In an instant, a huge swirl of colors was formed.

The energy released by that vortex was enough to engulf everything, and Yang Rui's body was gradually being pulled into it by that vortex. He roared in tears as a white beam of light burst out of the black hole, concentrating his helmet visor, which covered it with a tiny crack in the super-strength glass, which then spread rapidly until it completely shattered.

Yang Rui lost his last protection, he really smelled the universe for the first time, but it was also his last breath, the air in his lungs was instantly emptied, making him lose all his senses in a state of extreme lack of oxygen, and before finally closing his eyes, the little consciousness he had left told the dying brain that he was falling into a brilliant black hole.
