"This is Tuanjie shuttle,received please reply,This is Tuanjie shuttle,received please reply......"

Since the six astronauts come from four countries, the only language of communication is English.

Fortunately, as astronauts, everyone's English is very good, and only Lin Ju on the ground needs to be understood with the help of an interpreter. He swore directly in the launch center that one day if he wanted to go to space, he would have to be able to speak Chinese.

At the same time that Li Sheng started to call, in the return capsule of TMA-17M, Oleg was already waiting for a radio signal, and he heard Li Sheng's first call.

At the thought that the Unity might be thousands of kilometers behind him at this time, Oleg's mood couldn't help but get excited.

On the Unity, all three of them heard a deep Maozi voice: "Davarishi! KI Tajda Varihi! (Transliteration: Comrade, Comrade Huaguo!) ）”

Then there is a Chinese greeting and English with a thick accent: "Hello! it's Soyuz TMA-17M！ ”

Deng Lei suddenly was in a trance, and Davarich seemed to have returned to 24 years ago, that winter night, since then, Lucia has rarely shouted "Davarishi" to the Chinese, and at this moment seems to recall the years of falling in love and killing with the woolly bear.

Zhang Zhiguang and Li Sheng are older, and they are even more impressed, and the two sides unconsciously use "Davarishi" to come and go, and there is no opportunity for Ami Lindgren and Arii Keimi to intervene.

Even in Baikonur, many elderly people began to recite Davarishi, and some with gray hair even began to recall the time when they went to support industrial construction......

If it weren't for the fact that Solidarity was chasing the TMA-17M at more than 28,000 kilometers per hour, the scene would have become that of the Association for the Promotion of Class Friendship.

Both NACA, Lucia and the Chinese Space Agency have rich experience in space docking and have accurately formulated rendezvous procedures.

Unity's intelligent computer interacts with the satellite's data, fine-tuning its direction a little bit and is expected to catch up with the Soyuz spacecraft in 110 seconds.

At this time, 5 hours and 19 minutes before the launch of the Soyuz TMA-19M mission, the Unity crew received the order only a short 223 minutes, setting a world record.

Zhang Zhiguang still remembers that when he was completing his warm-up training, he was holding a snake fruit and gnawing on it, and he was suddenly urgently assembled.

This kind of emergency assembly is familiar to the military, but for them it is nothing more than a drill, who knows that it will be necessary to go to space and carry out a mission outside the cabin.

It had been 7 years and 11 months since he last went into space and made a spacewalk.

At the Qiongzhou Launch Control Center, Lin Ju looked at the simulation animation on the big screen, Unity and the Alliance TMA-17M were already close at hand, the second-stage rocket had long since detached, and the Unity had begun to slow down.

Oleg stared out of the porthole, hoping to see a small white dot appear in the darkness.

But due to the destruction of the center of the spacecraft, as well as several explosions, the Soyuz TMA-17M was actually spinning at an angle, and the Earth could only be seen every few moments.

On the radio, he already knew that Solidarity was only a few dozen kilometers away from them, and that it was making a final deceleration.

On the other side of the porthole, Keemi Arii and Lindgren were huddled in front of the porthole, and suddenly saw a small dot that flickered and dimmed, it was the Unity that was slowing down.

"スペースシップです (Space Shuttle)! スペースシップです！ ”

Deng Lei took over the command of the Unity, and the position of the radar mark coincided with the small point of joint monitoring and control of various countries, and they were only more than a thousand meters away from the alliance TMA-17M, but because of the direction of the light, they could only see darkness.

In the back seat, Zhang Zhiguang had already grabbed his life-support backpack and looked at the porthole in front of him.

"Target, 500 meters!"

"200 meters!"

As the distance got closer, the dark green and white alliance TMA-17M (broken) finally appeared in view, Deng Lei flashed the signal light, and then the RCS began to spew nitrogen to slow down and approach the spacecraft.

In Oleg's field of vision, as the re-entry capsule rotated to this side of the Earth, the white upper part of the Solidarity and the blue portholes appeared in the light.

“явасвижу，I see youКитайскийтоварищ！ (I saw it, I saw you, Comrade Huaguo!) ）”

Lindgren and Keemi Arii also suddenly moved away from the narrow return capsule, and hurriedly looked out the porthole, the Unity that was getting bigger and bigger.

"She's beautiful."

Lindgren uttered the sincerest compliments and looked at the Solidarity motionlessly.

Li Sheng gave the ground the observed situation of the Soyuz TMA-17M in the midst of a tumbling:

"Command center, the alliance spacecraft is currently only left with a combination of the return capsule and the orbital module, which is not separated by visual inspection, and is rolling at 11 degrees, and our plane has arrived at more than 10 meters, requesting the use of a robotic arm to correct the attitude of the target spacecraft, and then carry out rescue!"

During the video conference, the space agencies of the three countries and Xinyuan Aerospace confirmed the status of the Unity and fuel remaining, and approved the operation.

At this time, Zhang Zhiguang finally unbuckled his seat belt, Li Sheng also got out of the seat, carefully helped him put on the life support backpack, and finally pulled the metal ring buckle on Zhang Zhiguang's mask to lock and seal.

Zhang Zhiguang pressed the button on his left arm to activate the extravehicular mode, and the life-support backpack immediately began to work and cycle independently.

"Hole two (02), check the status of the spacesuit."

"Dong Yu (01), I'm in good condition, the instructions are normal, I can get out of the cabin!"

Li Sheng nodded, and then he sat down on the chair in the second row and pulled down the mask with Deng Lei.

Behind the passenger compartment, the transition airlock began to pressurize until it was balanced with the air pressure in the passenger compartment, and the electric hatch slid open, revealing a square exit nearly two meters high, which Zhang Zhiguang easily passed through as soon as he lowered his head.

Then the inner hatch closes, the status of the spacesuit is reconfirmed, and the airlock is depressurized.

In the airlock, Zhang Zhiguang watched the gauge representing the pressure value on the bulkhead drop to zero, and the indicator light of the outer hatch turned from red to green, and gently pressed the button.

Because it had been pumped into a vacuum, the outer hatch opened outward smoothly, Zhang Zhiguang first gently floated out of half of his body, his left arm touched an area next to the hatch on the upper body, and a round lid opened, revealing one end of the four safety ropes.

After crossing the rope around, Zhang Zhiguang fixed the buckle around his waist, pulled it to confirm that there was no problem, and sat down on the hatch carefully.

Less than ten meters above him was the Coalition TMA-17M, which was rolling irregularly, and the RCS of the Solidarity was still jetting from time to time.

Looking to the left, the huge Pacific Ocean was at his feet, and Zhang Zhiguang saw Hawaii at a glance.

In the crew compartment, Deng Lei flipped the switch on his head, pushed on the buckle to prevent accidental touch, and the cargo door on the back of the Unity slowly opened.

Because it is a passenger type, the cargo hold of the Solidarity is horizontal and rectangular instead of vertical, and the size can barely fit a car, and the carrying capacity is greatly reduced, but fortunately, there is no need to carry anything on this mission.

The folded robotic arm stretched out synchronously, and Zhang Zhiguang, who was sitting on the space shuttle, gently pushed the small joystick on his left arm with his thumb, and the claw moved towards the Soyuz spacecraft little by little.

"Hole three, get closer, get closer to within five meters, the length of the claw is too limited."

After receiving the information, Deng Lei first turned on the automatic obstacle avoidance system, lowered the trigger value to 2 meters, and then cautiously moved sideways to the right front, approaching the spacecraft at a speed of 0.1m/s.
