Chapter 601: Sanyang

"We should suggest that the ground give Dawn One a head change."

On the node berth of the "Tianhe" core module of the Tiangong space station, Liming-1, which has been docked for nearly a month, finally welcomed the first batch of passengers.

The four astronauts who arrived at the space station in Tengyun checked the situation in the command module, but in fact, it had been cleaned up by the astronauts stationed in the Tiangong space station, so Deng Lei began to complain about the command module of Liming-1 instead.

Dawn-1 is essentially a nuclear-powered version of the Aurora, and the command module is certainly the same as it, but the increase to nine seats is still a bit cramped.

After getting used to the spacious space shuttle, Deng Lei was very unaccustomed to this compact layout, although the per capita space of Liming-1 was even larger than that of the Shenzhou spacecraft.

"It should be a little more comfortable...... It's like a serious cabin in a science fiction movie, and you don't need to return to Earth anyway. ”

"You still have to take into account the accident, if something goes wrong and throws it into the earth, there will be no redundancy as you said."

Li Wei's words failed to convince him, Deng Lei still shook his head:

"It's still too conservative, you have to trust modern technology, but it's a pity that the Storm has to be kept for emergencies, otherwise we will sit there quickly and comfortably."

The three H2 Storm and Glory are still docked on the Advance, and if an accident occurs on the space station, they can evacuate with all 26 crew members at any time, and will not be transferred for the time being.

The fifth H2, which is the sister model of the Storm, the "Typhoon", has actually been built, but the base considers that the future nuclear-powered vehicle will be used for navigation between the Earth and the Moon and the Earth Fire needs some improvements, and it is expected that it will take some time before it can be put into service.

Deng Lei didn't know that the Great Wall 1 was about to be put into use, and when the time came, there would be four nuclear-powered vehicles in space with the Dawn 2, and the transportation capacity would be much more abundant.

Li Wei: "Then can I give advice to President Wu...... Was Dawn One leased or bought by United Mining? This may be considered a fight for a working environment? ”

"I think it's more reasonable to give advice to the boss, maybe we can draw a nice sketch and set up the project in the past."

The two continued to talk nonsense for a while, when they were finally interrupted by a voice.

It turned out to be Zhao Wei, the current commander of the Tiangong space station, and there were several astronauts behind him.

"Bring these, this is our new vegetables and tomatoes, which are not available on the Black Rabbit space station."

Li Wei took a large package, which was full of the output of the Tiangong space station.

He also saw a few white-clad people in the Tianhe core cabin, which should be a new batch of tourists.

It is said that Lin Ju has been drawing a tourism pie around the moon for a while, but because he has not been able to free his hands and has not started tossing, he can't wait for those rich people.

"Thank you, when Tianmu 3 returns, let's see if we can send the bean sprouts planted in the lunar soil, if you move quickly, you should be in time."

After accepting the gift, it was time to say goodbye, and the time for Dawn 1 to go to the moon was about three days like a traditional spacecraft, and they needed to leave as soon as possible.

At 9:30 a.m. on the 20th, Beijing time, Liming-1 broke away from the Tiangong space station.

It adjusted its direction under the influence of the RCS and began to accelerate around the Earth.

The acceleration takes about three hours, exactly two times around the Earth.

If the calculations are correct, the Dawn 1 crew has a roughly 35-minute window to observe the Wyoming missile launch and perform the final clean-up work, which is an opportunity not to be missed.

Deng Lei, who was sitting in front of the console, clicked on something on the panel, and then turned his head to look at Li Wei.

"Would you like to try Immersion Mode too?"

"Forget it, I'd better stare at the entity with peace of mind."

"Immersion mode" is an "upgraded" technology, which is actually derived from the 360-degree hologram system of the headset equipped for the snowbird, which relies on the cooperation of the helmet and numerous cameras to make the body "disappear", so that the operator is completely immersed in the surrounding environment.

Considering that the conditions of Dawn 1 are indeed not as good as those of other spacecraft, in order to solve the possible claustrophobic problem, Dawn 1 can also achieve this function through a specially equipped helmet.

Deng Lei liked this feature very much, which made him feel like he was exposed to the universe, which was both frightening and inexplicably alluring.

"Okay then, Lao Liu, Xiang Jie, you guys try it too? The porthole is so small that it may be able to block out a nuclear explosion. ”

"Give me access."

"I'll try it too."

Li Wei watched as the helmet masks of the three of them gradually turned from transparent to white, and checked the current attitude of the spacecraft again to ensure that the side portholes were always aimed at the side of the earth.

For him, it still makes more sense to the naked eye.

……

"General Edson, you have to make sure that the yield will not be greater than 1300 kilotons, it's about the order of 40 million people, I'm not kidding."

In the observation bunker in the zone of control, the top head of the IAEA, Rafael Mariano, is on the phone with the military chief of the Pacific Fleet.

The Wyoming had quietly left port in the early hours of yesterday morning, and no one knew where it had gone or where it would launch missiles.

Although the launch sites of the first two missiles are also kept secret, it is not difficult to guess the approximate launch area based on publicly available data, and it is difficult to say about nuclear submarines.

The USS Wyoming is a cutting-edge submarine in the Ohio-class that has been in service for a long time, and it is also equipped with "Trident II" missiles with a range of more than 11,000 kilometers, and it can go anywhere in the entire Pacific Ocean.

It's now radio silent in a state of war, and Edson can't actually reach them.

He only knew that there were now two more 052Ds in Fudao Bay, which were definitely rehearsing the interception of Trident II.

As for the equivalent, he can't control it, the presidential office is directly responsible for this matter, and Edson is almost a bystander.

Anyway, Congress would never let the yield of the hydrogen bomb be lower than 1.25 million tons, but he also knew that the yield of this thing could not be precisely controlled, so the answer to Raphael's question was also very vague.

"We always put the property and safety of the people first, and you don't have to worry about the technical expertise of our experts."

Raphael reluctantly ended the call, and could only pray that Ami would do something, otherwise the IAEA's reputation might be in disrepute.

Time passed quickly, and at 10:55, Tian Zhan, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, heard the warning sound of "beep" from the tactical tablet.

On the tablet is a map of most of the Pacific Ocean, connected to the remote sensing satellite overhead.

On the map shown, a heat source in the South Pacific Ocean is moving at temperatures of several thousand degrees Celsius and moving at more than the speed of sound, and the altitude is rising.

Considering that it is unlikely that Tuvalu will have ICBMs, then this should be the Wyoming shot.
