Chapter 201: Reading the Spring of the World
On July 10th, Director Lin was on his fifth day in space.
On the 7th, 8th, and 9th, Lin Ju was already completely familiar with the Tiangong space station and quickly adapted to the weightless life.
His physical condition is also very good, except for his face being a little swollen due to the loss of gravity of the blood, his body is still very comfortable, and all indicators are completely normal.
In the past three days, Lin Ju has posted 11 Weibo posts in a row, all of which are photos taken by him on the space station, which has fiercely envied a group of netizens, and at the same time, his fans have increased a lot.
And specially approved to legally open an account on Twitter and INS, but it was not banned.
Now Twitter is still in the hands of Jack Dorsey, and Lao Ma is not the richest man in the world, so he can't change the name of the little blue bird to X.
He copied and pasted the content he posted on Weibo to tweet it, and the number of interactions he received was even more than in China, and even Ao Xiaohei reposted his post.
And with other institutions that are aerospace companies, they also actively interacted, Jeff Bezos left a message asking him what he thought of the new Glenn rocket, Ma Yilong put a few imaginary pictures of the starship landing on Mars @Lin Ju for praise, and NACA also wanted to @ XAP and Lin Ju himself when he released the logo of the new Artemis program.
Lin Ju was active for three days, and then tweeted last night that he would carry out an out-of-cabin event on July 8, and there was no plan for a live broadcast.
As soon as the news came out, his comment area was full of wails, and everyone strongly condemned Director Lin's inhuman behavior, and begged him to post more photos and videos.
Lin Ju, Deng Lei, and Li Wei were in the spacious transition cabin, waiting for the pressure to be released.
They were dressed in extravehicular spacesuits with red stripes, much thicker than the in-cabin version, and even the wide transition module of the Tianhe Core Module could only accommodate the three of them to move freely.
Deng Lei stood next to the airlock switch and waited until the air pressure was displayed as zero and the indicator turned green before putting his hand on the switch.
"Check the status of the spacesuit again, and you will be able to get out of the capsule soon!"
Lin Ju heard the sound through the radio, raised his left hand and looked at the comprehensive monitoring table, from the spacesuit to the human body is very good, the life support backpack is full of power and oxygen, and it can last up to 8 hours.
The same is true for Li Wei's side, Deng Lei checked it for them again, and pulled the safety rope to confirm that it was fixed, and then pressed the button.
Lin Ju and Li Wei raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the hatch through the thick glass cover.
The hatch opened smoothly, revealing a true view of space.
Lin Ju was suddenly a little frightened, at this time, the distance between him and space was only 5 centimeters: this was the distance from his face to the outer surface of the hood.
The hood of the extravehicular spacesuit is a black technology, there are 14 layers of material inside and outside, and there is a distance between the two layers to evacuate, and the price of this transparent mask alone is extremely expensive.
If there is a problem with this mask, the human body is exposed to a vacuum like a slug entering a salt pile, fragile like a wet piece of straw paper.
Only then did Lin Ju understand how much courage it took for Alexei Leonov, the first person to walk in space, to climb out of the airlock.
Aerospace is really a business full of adventures.
Li Wei and Deng Lei were not idle when his thinking diverged, Li Wei gently pressed on his feet, and the whole person floated out towards the open round hatch, Deng Lei carefully supported his body and sent Li Wei out little by little.
Due to the difference in air pressure between the inside and outside, the spacesuit will expand under the action of pressure, causing the movement to be a little stiff, so the movements of both men look clumsy.
When Li Wei's head poked out of the hatch, the first thing he saw was the stars.
Due to the choice of the time of departure, the Tiangong space station is currently located on the far side of the Earth and is not exposed to sunlight.
Although he had seen the stars in space before, Li Wei had never felt so beautiful and shocked.
At this time, he grabbed the handle outside the space station, and the universe was like a huge bowl in his eyes, with stars twinkling everywhere at the bottom and wall of the bowl, they were so small, but so many, giving people a huge sense of tolerance.
In the face of this tolerance, distance and time lose their meaning, and it is easy to give people the illusion that the starry sky is right in front of them.
But the Milky Way, which almost runs through his vision, tells him that it is tens of millions of light-years away from the center of the universe, and that the longest distance that humans can travel is less than one basic unit: light-years.
The universe is always showing its splendor with its own vastness and silence.
"Li Wei? Li? ”
Deng Lei's voice woke him up from the visual shock, Li Wei came back to his senses and helped pull Lin Ju up, and then Deng Lei himself climbed out skillfully.
Lin Ju, who actually entered space for the first time, was a little in a hurry, but fortunately, with the help of two experienced astronauts, he quickly adapted to space.
The three of them were floating outside the core cabin, but their postures were chaotic, and Lin Ju was completely upside down.
Li Wei saw the starry sky, and he looked at the earth in a lying posture.
Now the Tiangong space station is over Africa and is about to enter the Arabian Sea.
The famous Great Rift Valley is just below, a natural wonder known as the "Scar of Earth" that is quite spectacular even when viewed from space.
There used to be a famous rumor that the Great Wall could be seen from space to the ground.
This is, of course, a rumor, and in fact it is impossible for any human building to be seen from a height of 400 kilometers, and only the scenery created by nature can be so magnificent.
Looking down on the land from here, it's like looking at a map sand table with a huge amount of detail, giving people a sense of unreality.
The thought of the land under which more than 7 billion human beings lived, Lin Ju felt a sense of suffocation.
"Captain Li, Director Lin, how does it feel to go into space!"
Deng Lei was out of the cabin for the third time, and he knew how shocking the scenery he saw when he went out of the cabin, so he didn't disturb the two of them at the first time, and it took several minutes before he called on the radio.
Lin Ju suddenly remembered a few lines of poetry, and immediately said it:
"Born out of thin air, Mang Kunlun, read the spring of the world. Now, I see the whole earth, can I count it as seeing the spring of the world? ”
Li Wei: "If the foot is the world, then the starry sky is the sky, in ancient times it was said that the sky is the place where the gods live, I didn't see the gods, nor did I see the palace, but we relied on our own efforts to build a heavenly palace in the sky that belongs to the Chinese people." ”
……
Li Wei and Lin Ju's first out-of-cabin activities were carried out at the same time, and there was no live broadcast, only a short video was played.
But when they left the capsule, they forgot about the uninterrupted extravehicular live broadcast of the Tiangong space station throughout the year, and one of the cameras happened to capture the three people who came out of the capsule, showing the world their disorderly drifting scene, and then it became popular in the name of "Director Lin's private candid photography......
