Chapter 648: The Plan Begins, the Spaceship Takes Off, and the Monopoly Satellite Launch Service!

The impact of the interview day lasted until the ship's take-off date, which was the time of the launch of the voyage program.

The night before, Spacecraft had set the time again, and it had done so to the hour, and that everything would go according to plan, and that the team was ready.

The Tianhang base is already very lively, and many heavyweight decision-makers have come to the scene, including Mr. Xu and Mr. Zhao.

The leadership team will participate in the farewell party of the expedition plan, and the day before the arrival will be a review of the preparations, and they will also meet face-to-face with everyone who boarded the ship to Mars.

Those whose work is important or influential will also be kindly and enthusiastically questioned about their work.

Wang Hao has been following the leading group, and he also saw Ding Zhiqiang, Paul and others communicating with the leaders.

Ding Zhiqiang and Paul Phil-Jones were still a little excited, after all, they were concerned about the work by the leading group, and they were asked in great detail.

Soon, Ding Zhiqiang was depressed.

He found that the leadership team was too enthusiastic about himself, perhaps because Ding Zhiqiang was Wang Hao's most optimistic student, and he also participated in many theoretical and experimental research of high-end technologies, and he was also considered one of the pillars of Annihilation Technology.

Although he himself doesn't think so, he still thinks that he just follows Wang Hao to do research, and he has no experience in completing high-end technology research and development alone, let alone completing theoretical research alone.

In any case, the leading group attaches great importance to Ding Zhiqiang.

Mr. Xu kindly took Ding Zhiqiang's hand and said enthusiastically, "Professor Ding, you are the future of the country!" ”

"It's important to remember that your health and safety are paramount, that a successful return is a victory, and that you must rest plenty of time when you get to the ship......"

"Ula Ula ......"

Teacher Xu continued a lot.

Ding Zhiqiang was still very happy, he was personally cared for by the good level leaders, and he also held hands cordially, and he also asked the entourage to help take a few photos, and after Mr. Xu left, it was the turn of other leaders.

Everyone in the leading group treated Ding Zhiqiang very enthusiastically, and the smile on Ding Zhiqiang's face quickly became stiff, he was very envious of those who were not taken seriously, and he could leave with a few casual words.

Ding Zhiqiang's emotional intelligence is not bad, how can he know how to deal with it, Paul Phil-Jones is different.

Paul Phil-Jones is also one of the most valued by the leadership team because he is very young and is the scholar who has made the greatest contribution to theory and technology outside of Wang Hao.

Paul Phil-Jones also became a naturalized flower planter and truly became his own.

However, his emotional intelligence has not improved much, and the initial excitement has quickly disappeared, and he has become sitting alone in the corner, no matter who walks over, he looks like no one is allowed to enter.

A few people who took the initiative to come over didn't know what to do with a wry smile, so they simply didn't want to find it boring.

Wang Hao is not surprised, Paul Phil-Jones is such a person, it is really impossible to want him to make a hypocritical greeting, but geniuses have character, and Paul Phil-Jones does have maverick capital.

September 1 is here.

Some reporters who had been given permission to cover the news had already entered the base at 3 o'clock in the morning and were waiting in the designated area of the square.

At 4:55, facing the rising sun, the square carried out a flag-raising ceremony.

On weekdays, there is no flag-raising ceremony, and the national flag will only be changed once a week, but today is a different day, and the base has also specially organized a flag-raising ceremony, and they are also professional national flag-bearers sent by the military, who have completed the solemn ceremony with firm and steady steps.

In the process of the flag-raising ceremony, the members of the leading group, the management of the spacecraft company, and the management of the technical department were all on the scene.

After the ceremony, it was already half-dawn, and the base began to get busy.

The members of the leadership group went back to rest for the time being, while the people involved in the project were responsible for various affairs.

The clean-up work around the spacecraft is the focus, and it is necessary to ensure that there is no equipment or personnel nearby, that there are no combustibles on the ground, that the ground situation must be carefully checked, and so on.

The rest of the work has already been done.

When the time came to eight o'clock, the farewell ceremony of the voyage plan was held in the center of the square.

All the people involved in the voyage plan gathered in two rows under the stage.

The leader gave a speech to the audience, explaining the importance of the voyage plan, explaining everyone's expectations for the plan, and wishing the plan to be successful.

After that, two more leaders came to the stage, namely Mr. Zhao from the military and Mr. Xu from the science and technology department.

If the space agency has a new decision-maker, the new decision-maker will definitely take the stage to speak, the space spacecraft is to carry out a voyage within the solar system, which belongs to the 'work affairs in the field of spaceflight', the space agency is also the most important cooperative organization of the spacecraft company, and it is natural for the space agency's decision-maker to take the stage.

Unfortunately, Mr. Zhu has retired, and there is no new decision-maker in the space bureau until now.

However, everyone thinks that Mr. Zhu's retirement is just right, and if the person in charge of the space agency appears on this occasion to speak, it will feel very embarrassing, after all, the space spacecraft belongs to the spacecraft company, not to the space agency.

Whenever they think of the voyage plan, many people think of the space agency, and then compare and find the space agency...... It doesn't seem to make much sense.

The speeches of the leaders took up half an hour, and many of the speeches made people feel drowsy.

After that, the management of the spacecraft company came to the stage, and Zang Chunlai came up to say a few words, but the content was not so official, but also to express confidence in the plan, and wished all those involved in the plan to return safely.

There is no conflict between a successful plan and the safe return of personnel, and it does not mean that if the plan is successful, everyone will return safely.

The voyage plan is to carry out a space voyage, even if there is gravitational field technology to simulate the gravitational environment of the earth, but after a long time, some people may still not adapt, the body's reaction will be relatively large, and even major diseases in the process are possible.

Think about it from another angle, even if you take a boat, some people will have severe seasickness.

Spaceships, not to mention, naturally.

Wang Hao was the last to speak on stage, and he had already found that many people were already impatient, so he still said with a smile, "Everything that should be said has been said, and there is nothing to say to me here." ”

"I'll just say: everyone get ready to enjoy the trip, it will surely be an experience that any of you will remember for a lifetime!"

After Wang Hao finished speaking, he walked off the stage directly, but the audience erupted in the warmest applause, mainly because what Wang Hao said was very simple, it didn't take up time at all, and they had long wanted to enter the next step.

The next part is the leadership group, Wang Hao and the management of the Tianhang spacecraft, who went to the audience to shake hands with everyone.

At this time, the live TV broadcast continued, the camera followed the whole process, and the host would also introduce everyone's name in detail.

Some people just pass by, with only one name and a country or institution represented.

Some are highlighted.

For example, Korot James, the column has prepared a short introduction, "Korot James, former project leader of the Lake Grum Project, discovered annihilation ray technology while studying the strong annihilation force field. This is a remarkable achievement abroad, and before that, the anti-gravity center did not disclose the relevant technology. ”

Now he is representing the famous Monet company on the voyage program and will be engaged in biotechnology research in spacecraft.

Paul Phil-Jones introduced, "In the field of annihilation physics, one of the best physicists besides Wang Hao, he is also a young Nobel laureate, participated in many research and development related to annihilation technology, and made significant contributions to the development of science and technology." ”

"In addition, Professor Jones is also the chief technical advisor on the spacecraft."

Ding Zhiqiang said, "Professor Ding is a student of Academician Wang, and he and Academician Wang have also made a lot of achievements in their research, and their theoretical and technical contributions have been great......

I said a few words in the follow-up, but when everyone remembered it was 'Wang Hao's student'.

This is also where Ding Zhiqiang feels depressed.

No matter how much R&D contributions he has, when it is mentioned, it is always said that Wang Hao's students, unless one day he can complete a major R&D alone, it is very difficult to get rid of this name.

Perhaps, even if a major R&D has been completed, others will still talk about Wang Hao.

The welcome ceremony ended, and the spacecraft prepared to set off.

All the boarding personnel walked in the direction of the spacecraft and entered the spacecraft in an orderly manner, and the television showed the personnel entering the spacecraft and the leading group waving in the direction of the spacecraft.

Once all personnel have entered the ship, the screen switches to the internal console.

This is the footage transmitted by the cameras inside the spacecraft.

On the other side is the ground control center.

Wang Hao sat with Mr. Xu, Mr. Zhao and others, and watched the control and command take-off process in the back row.

It is not the first time that a spacecraft has taken off, but the docking detection before take-off is still very complicated, and the camera is only aimed at the key parts, and in fact, many people have participated in the work.

Zhu Qiqiang is the commander of the ground control center, and after receiving the data reported by various parts, he also decisively shouted out the command order, "Take off, prepare!" ”

"Ignition, countdown to ten seconds."

“10、9、8、7……”

“3。”

“2。”

“1!”

There was a buzzing sound at the scene, and a large amount of light emerged under the celestial spacecraft under the lens, and ordinary cameras could not see anything at all, and only in the radar angle that blocked most of the light could the spacecraft be clearly seen slowly rising.

From the perspective of the radar lens, everyone watched the spacecraft slowly rise into the sky and quickly disappear into the ground from the perspective of the plane.

"Speed 165, normal acceleration."

"Energy supply, stability!"

"Heat, stability!"

"The temperature is 5600 degrees Celsius, and the rise rate is controllable!"

"Keep accelerating!"

"Everything is working ......"

This is the end of the live broadcast on TV, and the follow-up will introduce the space spacecraft to carry out the mission of releasing large satellites, but it is only an introduction, and there is nothing special to pay attention to.

In fact, the work of releasing satellites is not difficult for the spacecraft at all, and the large satellites they release are all geosynchronous orbit types, and at an altitude of 36,000 kilometers above the ground, it is enough to open the cabin of the satellite equipment and release the satellites in turn with a bracket.

The release process is simply to move the satellite out of the spacecraft, and the satellite can use its own energy to control and slowly push to a fixed position and height.

There is nothing dangerous about this process.

From this moment on, the work of the control center is to receive the information sent by the spacecraft at any time, and make sure that the spacecraft is running stably, and that after the spacecraft really enters space and starts the journey to Jupiter, everything is the responsibility of the spacecraft personnel.

The captain of the Tianhang spacecraft is Huang Youkun, and he bears very heavy task pressure.

All the problems encountered by the spacecraft need Huang Youkun to make decisions, even if it is an established plan, Huang Youkun has the right to modify the plan and make command changes.

This is 'the general is outside, and the military order is not subject to it'.

Huang Youkun's most important job is to ensure the safety of the spacecraft and bring everyone back to Earth as much as possible, and all work tasks are based on safety.

……

The spacecraft has officially entered the journey to Jupiter, and the job on the ground is to receive information and keep an eye on the spacecraft's situation at any time.

Other people will also care about the situation of the spacecraft, but their concern is useless, the farther away the spacecraft is from the Earth, the longer the communication delay will be, and when the spacecraft arrives at Jupiter, it will be about 680 million kilometers away from the Earth, and the signal reception delay time is more than 40 minutes, and a simple call will take more than an hour.

The rest of the personnel still felt much more relaxed, and after the spacecraft left the base, they didn't have much to do.

Wang Hao continued to stay with the leading group, and he was accompanied by Zang Chunlai, the general manager of the company.

The leading group was very interested in the development of the spacecraft company, and one of the leaders asked, "Academician Wang, as far as I know, the biggest profit point of space activities now is the satellite launch service. ”

"About 13 billion flower coins." Wang Hao said a number roughly.

This number surprised the leadership team.

The work of the space spacecraft to release satellites is only incidental, and the result is to earn more than 10 billion at one time, which sounds a little incredible.

Zang Chunlai explained, "The large-scale satellite launch service is a monopoly technology, and we have received several orders, in fact, in terms of kilograms, it is already very favorable. ”

"Large satellites, the performance of a dozen small satellites can be up to a dozen small satellites, and enterprises with satellite launch needs hope to be able to manufacture large satellites, which are fast at one time, do not need to wait in line, and the unit price is much cheaper."
