Weibo, the top entry of the hot search on July 7:

"Lin Ju's first night in space"

At noon on July 6, Lin Ju arrived at the Tiangong space station.

Although he has not been in space for many years, and he has never had docking experience, the training with countless repetitions is effective, and Li Wei's manual docking is faster than that of automatic docking, and he is firmly connected to the interface at one time.

Lin Ju, who had been floating in space for more than two hours, had already adapted to gravity and followed Li Wei into the "Tianhe" core module.

The 0.9m interface of the Yungong core module is occupied by Shenzhou 11 and Tuanjie, so it can only be accessed through the node module of the Tianhe core module.

System engineers Ke Yun and Deng Lei were waiting for him at the Yungong space station, and when Lin Ju passed through the wide 2.5-meter square interface, they shouted in unison:

"Welcome home, boss!"

There is no problem, the XS-62 manufacturer and ownership are all Xinyuan Company, and it is not wrong to say that it is Lin Ju's.

Other words...... He has a property in space?

Although Lin Ju has entered the space station more than once on the ground, it is the first time in space.

What struck him the most was the sense of direction, especially the circular cabin.

The first thing he did was to gently step on the bulkhead and walk around, because there was no gravity, so there was no discomfort of turning it upside down at all.

The actual living experience of the 6.8-meter circular cabin is extremely huge, with Lin Ju's figure of one meter eight, he is three and a half as tall!

So much so that when he broadcast live again at night, Lin Ju subconsciously complained:

"I knew it would have been made into a compartment, and both floors are rich."

At that time, the online comment area was full of entries such as "worthy of being a big capitalist" and "capital is going into space", but everyone really didn't think there was any problem, after all, the height of the average residential floor is about 2.8 meters to three meters.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the height of 6.8 meters is a villa, so until now, some people have constantly complained that the XS-62 is too luxurious and extravagant, and there is no compartment.

But these Xinyuan engineers at that time did not expect it, but at that time they thought that the round cabin would be greatly more comfortable to arrange, and it would feel like a spaceship.

In fact, it is true, Lin Ju's feeling in the circular cabin is a completely futuristic spaceship, the space is atmospheric, the layout is beautiful, especially when sitting in the viewing cabin, if you add the ring console, it is like sitting in the pilot cabin of the "Millennium Falcon" spaceship, which is particularly feeling.

On the contrary, when he went back to visit the Tiangong-2 space laboratory, he instantly felt like he had entered a container, and his perception was extremely depressed.

He rang out the first batch of 4 astronauts of the Tiangong space station After the crew came down, the engineers of the Fifth Academy inadvertently complained when they were building the B-level base cooperation experimental module.

After experiencing the core module of the Cloud Palace, the astronauts strongly recommend that the internal size of the future space station should not be less than 3X3 meters, and it is best to reach 4X4 meters, because once you have experienced the spacious environment, you really can't go back.

Even with their adaptability, it will take a long time to change, and there are really many advantages of large cabins.

Therefore, the second batch of "Mengtian" and "Wentian" experimental cabins of the Fifth Academy still left a lot of space in accordance with Xinyuan's spirit of "waste", and did not crazily stuff equipment.

The first time to experience the space station in the field, especially the space station built by himself, Lin Ju kept scurrying around until he rested according to the schedule stipulated by the space station, and even picked a ripe cabbage......

Some of this was recorded by the live broadcast camera of the space station and announced to the public, and for the first time of celebrities experiencing the space station, the number of views of these videos is very high, and there are many complaints.

After all, according to daily routines, celebrities should have some characteristics as the media said, but Lin Ju's performance seems to be no different from ordinary people, he will be surprised when he sees some magical phenomena in a weightless state, and he will make a lot of childish actions to experience the magic of weightlessness.

And these actions have also caused some unexpected effects:

Jeff Bezos announced within Blue Origin that he would develop the New Shepard-2 rocket, which, unlike the New Shepard, will use a BE4 engine and aims to launch a lightweighted capsule into low-Earth orbit.

After all, the experience of weightlessness for a few minutes and the comparison on the track...... Well, apparently the latter is more forced.

Lao Ma is eyeing the space station, SpecaX announced that it will jointly develop an inflatable module at Bigelow Aerospace, using a Falcon 9 rocket to launch to the ISS, which can be inflated and expanded after docking, becoming a full-time tourist module for external operations.

The area of this inflatable compartment "Origin" after unfolding reaches 115 square meters, which is a little smaller than the XS-62, but not much smaller either.

The upside is that the size and weight control is relatively good, and Bigelow received assistance from NACA a ten years ago, and the technology is already relatively mature, but reliability has always been a concern, but now they have decided to go the extra mile and get the inflatable compartment into use earlier.

……

"China's new-generation manned spacecraft test ship completed its first test flight."

On July 8, when Lin Ju was still floating in the sky, the new generation of manned spacecraft completed its first test flight.

The launch rocket is the Long March-3B, a large poison with a LEO capacity of 11.2 tons.

The new generation of manned spacecraft weighing 21.6 tons and 8.6 meters in length will not be able to reach low earth orbit with the Long March-3B, but it is only to test the performance of the spacecraft.

Originally, the Xinyuan-5A could just hit low-earth orbit, but the space agency felt that it was unnecessary, and the Long March 2 and 3 series of rocket bodies were in stock, so there was nothing to fire.

However, the diameter of the new generation of manned spacecraft has reached 5 meters, while the maximum diameter of the Long March 3B is only 3.35 meters, and the diameter of the reusable Long March 7 that is planned to be used in the future is also 3.35 meters.

There is nothing wrong with going beyond a little diameter, but because the new generation of manned spacecraft has a fairing-free design, there is also no transition between the bottom and the rocket.

This causes the head of the ship to look like ...... It's kind of meaningful, anyway.

Fortunately, the test of the spacecraft itself was very successful, the design of the new generation of manned spacecraft is perfect, the reusability index has been fully achieved, the impact caused by ablation is not large, and there is no problem with simply cleaning up and launching again.

Many of the new technologies used in the spacecraft have also been verified, including flexible cargo compartments, air cushions during landing, etc., and there are no major problems, which means that the expensive Shenzhou era is about to pass, and the space agency will also usher in the era of reusable and cheap space.

However, this news did not cause much turmoil in the aerospace port or even in the science and technology circle, and now the hot spot is the computer: the ternary computer.
