Tiangong space station, the interior is very tidy.

The modular unit eliminates messy pipes and wiring in the cabin.

Line management is also a very important classification within engineering.

Tiangong has adopted a very advanced management technology.

Drawer-type wiring cabinet.

Most of the wiring and piping are integrated into the cabinet on the bulkhead.

Not only does it save space inside the station, but it also makes it easier to inspect and maintain.

From one small clue one can see what is coming.

Behind this is the scientific and technological progress of the Dragon Kingdom for decades.

"When will our spare ship arrive?"

In the Heavenly Palace, Jing Haipeng, as the commander, was communicating with the ground command center.

A day ago, the ISS rescue mission suddenly appeared.

Their manned spacecraft were borrowed.

After the completion of the rescue mission, the life of the manned spacecraft has basically reached the end.

The main reason is that the manned spacecraft has run out of fuel and cannot return to Earth with them.

But don't worry about them being trapped in space.

Every mission of the Shenzhou spacecraft will have a corresponding spare spacecraft.

It is used to deal with these unexpected situations.

"In three days, the backup spacecraft will be launched."

"At that time, please be prepared for manual docking."

Zhang Xingyang said solemnly in the command center.

Manual docking, which was supposed to be an experiment when they left the space station.

But plans can't keep up with the changes.

So they temporarily adjusted the space station experiment plan to replace the manual docking experiment that was supposed to take place in a few months.

Adjusted to three days later.

However, after the adjustment.

Actually, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing for astronauts.

Security is even more secure.

"Understood."

The other person's answer was short and forceful.

After talking about the launch of the spare spacecraft in three days, Zhang Xingyang temporarily left the control center.

The accident on the International Space Station came very suddenly.

Although the other party dealt with it in a timely manner, and found the dragon country with rescue capabilities as soon as possible.

However, there is still a rush in time, and there are still many problems.

Especially now that the problems with the ISS have come to light.

Some countries that have been deeply involved in the project have also withdrawn.

Is it still necessary to follow Eagle Sauce to continue to invest in this project?

Originally, when the International Space Station project was established.

Different countries actually have different ideas.

Some want to make a name for Eagle Sauce, and some want to get on the lap of a space power to do some of their own projects.

No matter what kind of mind it is.

There is an important premise for all of this.

Eagle sauce does have unique experience and strength in space station construction.

At that time, the world had experience in the construction of space stations.

There are only two countries in total.

Hairy bear, eagle sauce.

After the disintegration of the woolly bear, the big hair that inherited most of its aerospace technology.

Because of economic problems, the independent construction of the space station has been abandoned.

So it joined the International Space Station project.

Nowadays, there is a major accident on the International Space Station.

Many participants in the International Space Station have doubts about the technical strength of Eagle Sauce.

In particular, the rescuers are still in the Dragon Kingdom, which has just broken through manned space technology a few years ago.

This makes the doubts in everyone's hearts more and more intense.

I didn't have a choice at the beginning.

Now if they are to choose, it seems that they will cooperate with the Dragon Kingdom on the space project.

Also a good choice.

"In the past two days, our cooperative project application channel has received hundreds of times the previous project applications."

Zhang Xingyang's secretary, Yang Yi.

When Zhang Xingyang walked to the conference room, he handed him a list of documents and said.

Yang Yi, who has recently been transferred to Zhang Xingyang's work secretary, was previously in charge of the low-orbit satellite communications project.

Zhang Xingyang took the document and glanced at it briefly.

Most of the application projects are shoddy.

Either that's beyond their current scientific prowess.

It can be seen that these people are all trying to mix up with each other.

It is estimated that it will take some time for the normal project application to be released.

"Send it to my office first, and I'll see it when I'm done with the meeting."

During this time, Zhang Xingyang had very little free time.

I can only deal with things that are not too important at such a time.

Pushing open the wooden door of the conference room, the others were already seated.

Just waiting, the protagonist of today's meeting.

After Zhang Xingyang stepped onto the main podium, Yang Yi carefully and gently closed the door.

The people present today are basically the big guys, and she is a little frightened.

"Without further ado, our spare spacecraft is about to launch, when will they be able to reimburse us for the rest of the money."

Zhang Xingyang did not give others a chance to idle nonsense.

Straight to the point.

"They seem to be deliberately delaying payments."

A middle-aged man in a suit with parted hair said.

"According to the information we got this morning, there seems to be some contradictions within them."

Zhang Xingyang hadn't heard of this news before.

Instant interest came.

"Let's talk about it."

The International Space Station project is a large-scale project involving many different countries.

The division of internal forces is actually quite complicated.

The main ones that speak are more weighty, mainly Maozi and Eagle Sauce.

Especially at this stage.

Most of the space station cabins and technology are made by the two of them.

Most of the other countries are still working on research and development, and only part of the money is paid.

"It is said that after Ying-chan blamed the cause of the accident on Maozi's head, the person in charge of Maozi directly slapped the table with his leather shoes, claiming that this was slander."

"There is a strong tendency to withdraw from the ISS project."

Zhang Xingyang smiled after listening to it.

This is probably also from people with ulterior motives.

Maozi: It is impossible for them to give up their intimate relationship with the West at this stage.

Despite this relationship, it is actually very false and fragile.

"For this reason, NASA intends to promote the establishment of an accident compensation foundation, and then compensate through the foundation, and the foundation will pay a large proportion of the money."

When Zhang Xingyang heard this, his face gradually turned cold.

"Do they feel that they are out of danger and can do whatever they want?"

Less than a day ago, the ISS had returned to normal orbital altitude.

"Remind them that our spacecraft is still connected to the International Space Station."

This is a small warning, or rather a threat.

If a spacecraft can raise the ISS altitude, it will be able to descend altitude.

Even to descend in height, much less fuel is required.

"In this accident, in addition to the money, we also got a part of the control of the International Space Station."

After Zhang Xingyang finished talking about compensation, he threw a bombshell in front of everyone.

"How did you get it?"

"You hacked into their backstage?"

"Won't be discovered?"

"What if I find out?"

"Do you want to kill your mouth?"

"The ship doesn't seem to have a self-destruct program."

For a moment, Zhang Xingyang was a little surprised.

I didn't expect these bigwigs to be so violent.

He kind of liked it though.

"Control certainly doesn't come from hacking into the background."

If he wanted to destroy the International Space Station, Zhang Xingyang would not blow it up at all.

It's okay to just excuse yourself and not save them.

Therefore, Zhang Xingyang still briefly explained how he obtained part of the space rights of the space station.

"This is what NASA gave us."

In short, in the process of running.

NASA directly transferred a large amount of data to the control center of the northern capital through satellites.

This also includes real-time control of some control units.

Because they don't give them out.

It's easy to have problems during docking and ascent.

But Zhang Xingyang: They didn't do anything with the data.

Even the power of manipulation has not been moved.

On the one hand, I am afraid of being falsely accused by NASA.

On the other hand, they don't really need to get this part of the data.

After Zhang Xingyang finished explaining, many people present frowned.

As a result, the control doesn't seem to be what they thought it would be.

And, it doesn't seem to be of much use.

"The main thing is that we have control over the ability to collect a portion of the ISS operational data in real time."

Zhang Xingyang then added

"Even if they don't actively transfer data to us in the future, they will be able to do that."

That's kind of awesome.

Knowing the operational data of the ISS still has a lot of benefits for them.

Within the next hour.

There was a lot of talk in the room about the aftermath of the ISS accident.

Although the matter in space has been almost solved.

But it will have a very significant and far-reaching impact on events on the ground.

Don't say anything else.

At least after that.

No one dares to underestimate the strength of Dragon Country's aerospace.

However, for China, this matter is a win-win situation.

That is, the dragon kingdom won several times.

——

In space, the Tiangong-1 space station is still operating quietly.

Outside the space station, there are intense ultraviolet rays and high-energy cosmic rays from the sun.

In a vacuum, due to sunlight and shading, the experimental material quickly alternates between hot and cold in a high and very low temperature environment.

The atomic oxygen produced by the ionization of oxygen molecules can significantly erode the outer material of the spacecraft.

Whether it's the thrill of the International Space Station.

Or the aftermath of this incident on the ground.

For them, it doesn't have much impact.

They are still on the same schedule as previously set.

Steadily move forward with your plans.

In addition to the time of the manual docking experiment, in advance.

Everything else is business as usual.

"Now when I look out the window and can't see the manned spacecraft, it's really a little uncomfortable."

Liu Yang looked at the porthole and said.

Until then, look at it from this point of view.

Just in time to be able to see the figure of the manned spacecraft carrying them into the sky.

If you look at it now, you can only see the shadow of the Earth.

"Today we're going to try to connect, the moon orbits the satellite."

"It's a tough task for us, so don't get distracted."

Jing Haipeng, as the commander, reminded Liu Yang, who was still looking at the scenery outside the window.

A few months ago, they successfully launched the first lunar rover to the moon.

And the moon surface walk was realized.

Today, they're going to communicate with the moon.

They also don't quite understand what the value of this technology is.

But since it's on the schedule, there's this item.

And they just did it.

Among several people, Liu Yang has some understanding of the future development of space.

There are some speculations of their own about this.

She remembers, at a symposium.

Zhang Xingyang told them about the future development of space.

At that time, there will be super-heavy nuclear-powered space ports weighing tens of thousands of tons.

and countless space shuttle ships.

Travel back and forth between Earth and space, space and the Moon.

Liu Yang vaguely guessed that this technology should be used in the large-scale development of the moon.

But at this time, she didn't think too much about it.

Instead, they began to fulfill their duties seriously.

The first thing to do for the Tiangong-1 space station.

It is to release a dedicated communication satellite.

Liu Yang came to the release pipe and stuffed a communication satellite in the shape of a cube into it.

Accompanied by the push of pressurized gas.

Communication satellites soon appeared in the vast space.

At this time, Liu Wang wanted to start testing the operation status of communication satellites.

After it was found that the communication satellite was in good working condition.

Begin to fly by accompanying communication satellites.

Contact an orbiting satellite on the Moon.

The moon orbits the satellite, which is mainly used for communication between the Earth and the moon.

Although the lunar rover is working on the front side of the moon.

However, its communication power does not support direct communication with the ground.

It is necessary to use the Lunar orbit communication satellites.

In order to complete the transmission of high-power signals.

Let this valuable lunar information.

Spanning a distance of more than 300,000 kilometers.

Back on Earth.

The accompanying communication satellite soon made contact with the communication satellite orbiting the moon.

Next, it's the highlight of the whole project.

Liu Wang will fly a communications satellite by companion.

After the referral of the Lunar orbiting communications satellite.

Take control of the Jade Rabbit rover on the lunar surface.

Before that, the Jade Rabbit was well prepared.

This period is exactly the middle of its working hours during the lunar day.

The conditions are in the best condition in all aspects.

Liu Wang's first instruction was very simple, that is, to ask the Jade Rabbit to take a picture in the direction of the earth.

According to calculations, this photo was able to take exactly the Tiangong-1 on Earth.

The speed of the Jade Rabbit is not very fast.

Especially considering that there are hundreds of thousands of kilometers between the two.

Even the light, running back and forth between them, takes several seconds.

Half a minute later, the data was transmitted to the space station via radio waves.

The raw data needs to go through a certain amount of processing.

to be able to restore it to a high-definition picture.

After spending more than ten minutes transcoding the data.

Liu Wang finally got a picture from hundreds of thousands of miles away.

The lower half is the glowing white lunar floor, and in the middle of the upper half is the small blue planet.

As for the space station, it should also be in the picture.

It's just that it's hard to say whether the space station is tens of meters long or not.

I'm afraid it's very difficult to find out! (End of chapter)
