Technology Bigshot Chapter 524: : Space rendezvous and docking]

"Tell you a secret, this time, a 200-gram special product of your hometown was specially prepared in this supplement. How about I successfully applied for you? Is it interesting?"

"The hush money is OK!"

"61 Sync, Lao Li, get ready to take control of the cargo hold!"

"No problem!" Li Xingfeng turned around slightly, and the pod beside him indicated that a push plate had been opened, and a 7-inch crystal screen appeared inside, and his fingers were moving on the screen. A woman's Chinese voice sounded inside: "Permission transfer in progress!"

After getting it done, Li Xingfeng looked at the "Arc Eagle No. 1" space transport aircraft again.

On the other side, Ning Zebo in the cockpit stared at the display data and said: "71 synchronization rate! Distance 133 yards and meters!"

Xiaoliang pressed a yellow button and said at the same time: "The cargo compartment is starting to separate!"

Outer space, there is silence here, and there is almost nothing in the vacuum to transmit sound. At this moment, everyone stopped chatting, and the three of them were concentrated and not distracted at all.

A group of foreigners in the space station watched curiously.

"Is this a new Chinese carrier spacecraft?"

"The company, to be exact, produced by the company, it is said that this spacecraft can enter space without the aid of a rocket booster!"

"What? Going into space without a rocket booster? It's a spaceship!"

"Has China's space technology reached such an advanced stage?"

After a while, they saw something even more surprising.

Outer space, the transport aircraft that has maintained a synchronization rate of more than 70 with the "Tianzhou" began to change. The Mitsubishi cone-shaped body, a quarter of the nose began to separate, and the plane was 35 degrees relative to the horizontal of the body. The inclination angle is slowly shifted downwards until the top of the nose is about to move to the level where the lower part is level with the abdomen of the body.

At this moment, the transport aircraft seems to have been cut diagonally from a quarter of the nose. The nose was once hung on the edge of the lower part of the aircraft, and nearly three-quarters of the core of the aircraft at the rear can pass through. The half-empty diameter of the cut surface can be seen inside, and a huge space capsule is fixed inside. It can be seen that the cargo compartment does not completely occupy the space in the transport aircraft, which means that it can carry more cargo.

At this moment, the support of the fixed cargo compartment was successfully separated, and the cargo compartment slowly moved out of the transporter from the inclined plane, slowly left the transporter, and finally completely separated from the transporter. The surface of the capsule full of supplies was spewing white mist, slowly approaching the docking port of the space station.

"95 synchronization rate! Relative distance is 46 yards!" Ning Zebo in the cockpit said looking at the cargo compartment. The transport plane has always maintained a distance of more than 100 yards from the space station. Li Xingfeng watched the cargo compartment get closer and closer, and then came to the docking port with the outside wall hanging.

"99 sync rate!"

At this moment, Li Xingfeng can reach out and touch the cargo compartment. The red ray indicator lights at the two docking ports are strobes, getting closer and closer, 10 yards, 7 yards, 3 yards, 60cm, 22cm

Complete contact with the interface, and the fixing frame is fixed. Li Xingfeng looked at the transport plane 100 meters away. At the same time, the "Arc Eagle No. 1" had returned to its original state. He extended his thumb towards the cockpit window.

In the cockpit of the transport plane, Ning Zebo's mouth showed a slight arc, and after seeing the other party's gesture, he said calmly: "Fox Eagle No. 1 called the command center, the cargo compartment has completed the space connection and docking of Tianzhou. Supplies have been successfully received, the second phase of the task has been successfully completed, and the application has ended. Please instruct. Finished!"

The message came from the communicator soon: "Nice job! This is the command center, and the application for the end of the second phase of the mission has been approved. Order, start the third phase of the mission immediately, and return home! This is the last mission. , don't make any **** for me, it's over!"

"It's time to go home, Xiaoliang!" Ning Zebo looked at his deputy, who nodded slightly, turned on a few buttons and moved his fingers on the display panel, and said at the same time: "The return track is being tested, 121 seconds. Then start changing tracks!"

At this moment, it has been 40 minutes after the transport plane arrived in space. On the other side, Li Xingfeng, who was in outer space, came to the rear end of the cargo compartment. There is a hatch here. After opening the hatch to enter the cargo compartment, the interior Start charging.

"The air pressure is stable!" Li Xingfeng heard the voice report, then took off his aerospace helmet, found the cargo list very skillfully, and then opened the dedicated public communication channel of the space station, staring at the cargo list with a smile to read Said: "All the passengers on the ship, a batch of additional supplies has been delivered, um, there are 6 tons of liquid nitrogen, 135 tons of pure liquid oxygen, 8 tons of various food, 45 tons of water or beverages, and the rest of the supplies are solar panels or something. Inedible!"

"Let me see what I'm eating?" Li Xingfeng turned over a page of the list, looked at the detailed list, was slightly taken aback, and said, "Wow, there is actually a bottle of Taiping Island wine? Lafite 1982 Fight? Uh, Matrix Technology sponsorship? Only two bottles? This rich man is too stingy!"

Not to mention the expensiveness of the bottle of wine itself, the more expensive thing is the shipping cost. According to the traditional shipping cost calculation, the two wines sent to space are worth two million US dollars, Li Xingfeng said with a smile: "Less It's a little less, but it's barely enough for everyone to get a small share."

A group of foreigners in the core cabin heard such a famous wine, and they all cheered with smiles, especially the Russians who like wine with bright eyes. Drinking alcohol in outer space was originally prohibited, but this ban was lifted in 2006. The Chinese astronauts are fine, but a group of foreigners have long been clamoring for the next supply of supplies to remember to bring some wine to satisfy their cravings. This will allow you to work better.

Li Xingfeng put the list back where it was, put one hand on the bulkhead, and said, "Dalvis, and Wu Bin, you two come and handle this batch of supplies. Remember to handle the solar panels carefully, eat well. One meal, have a good rest, replace the old battery panels on the No. 2 experimental cabin after 6 hours, Wu Bin, you have to come with me, and Jackson, you two are forbidden to drink alcohol before work, but don't worry, you guys can’t escape.”

Just after the end of the communication, Ning Zebo's one-line communication came with news: "Lao Li, the goods have been delivered, it's time to say goodbye!"

"Good luck!"

In the cockpit of the air transport plane, Xiaoliang said again: "The return track has been verified!"

Ning Zebo went on to say: "Arc Eagle No. 1 calls the command center, we will re-enter the atmosphere and return to the atmosphere after changing orbits around the earth for one and a half weeks, it's over!"

"Headquarters received, I wish all the best, finished!"

This is the last contact with the command center. When the spacecraft returns to the atmosphere, there will be no further contact, but the command center on the ground can monitor all the live data of "Arc Eagle 1" through satellites.

"Prepare to change orbits!" Ning Zebo looked sideways at his deputy, returning to Earth was another uncomfortable journey.

Outer space, I saw that the surface of the air transport plane was spewing white gas, and the aircraft was adjusting its direction. It didn't take long for "Arc Eagle 1" to carry out the third round under the gaze of a group of astronauts from various countries on the space station. Sub-acceleration, flying forward at a faster speed than the space station. After the aerospace transport plane enters the new channel, it will circle the earth for more than one week, and will return to the atmosphere at the predetermined cut-in angle after 148 minutes.

To be continued, to be continued.
