Technology Bigshot Chapter 571: : Confluence]
……
The nine Chinese and American crew members boarded the port one by one, and led by the internal crew members, they all headed for the centrifuge at the star port.
"This space station is really big!" Aislin couldn't help but exclaimed again.
Other American astronauts feel the same way. It is not the first time for them to enter the space station. Two senior astronauts have even worked on the International Space Station and later on the "Tianzhou". After working, he was amazed by the huge International Space Station, but in the "Tiangong Ring Orbit Star Harbor", the International Space Station is insignificant, and it is not on the same level at all.
Ten minutes later, everyone turned a few corners from boarding cabin 6 to the cargo cabin supply cabin and finally entered the intersection of core cabin No. 1. It was a well-connected fork. It was the first time to enter someone else's national space station. The space station with the property of the company, a group of old Americans are extremely curious. When they arrived at this fork, they could see the No. 2 core cabin, the supply cabin, the experimental cabin, the energy cabin and many other forks, especially the energy cabin. "No access allowed without authorization" sign.
Several old Americans were curious about what was inside the energy capsule, but they quickly thought of the news that shocked the world that was disclosed not long ago. I am afraid that the area where the energy capsule is located should be the place that provides energy for the entire orbiting star port , which may be the controllable nuclear fusion energy reactor generation area.
Six Americans and five Chinese people formed a long line of 11 people "floating" in the gravity-free star port. Under the leadership of the Chinese astronauts, they finally reached the No. 2 core module and entered the huge centrifugal force The capsule can only pass through the No. 2 core module. The leading astronaut smiled at everyone and said, "Friends, a sumptuous lunch is waiting for us below, Chinese food, and your compatriots."
After all, he made a 18° turn in the weightless mid-air, with his legs facing the passageway below, and his small hand gently pushed him to the top of the passageway, entering the centrifugal force field The whole person was pulled towards the entrance by a force, and others followed suit when they saw it. The second was Jing Tian, the third was Aislin, and the rest entered the entrance one after another.
After everyone left Earth, they felt the presence of gravity here for the first time.
Nine new members and two Star Harbor hosts entered the centrifuge one after another. Finally, everyone did not need to be suspended in the air in a weightless environment, but stood on the floor. The gravity was no different from the earth.
"It's really big!" said Aislin in amazement. She looked around curiously, and deeply felt the opulence of the owner of this space station. You must know that in outer space, every cubic meter of space is precious and valuable. It is necessary to make the best use of everything, and the space activities that burn money can’t be too stingy. In the eyes of these old beauties, a deputy hall is so big, it should not be too extravagant.
Several veterans who have been to the International Space Station have a deep understanding, but they prefer it here. Obviously, it is absolutely comfortable to work in the "Tiangong Ring Orbit Star Harbor", and others are still stingy. When using resources, the human-machine relationship and comfortable environment have long been considered here.
The gap...
A group of astronauts took off their space suits here. After a while, under the leadership of the Chinese astronauts, everyone in casual clothes came to the main hall. It was a novel scene. The main hall is the entire orbiting star The largest independent space in the port centrifuge.
At this moment, more than a dozen people are gathering together. Those who come here for the first time are all curious. Due to the curvature of the centrifugal chamber, the layout of the segment looking towards the other side will visually produce a "U"-shaped inclination, as if The seats, facilities and people sitting on the other side will slide down the **** to the bottom of the arc, but this is not the case, all the facilities seem to be fixed in place.
"Welcome to our new members!" The people in the main hall laughed loudly when they saw 11 people coming. With their arrival, more than 20 members gathered in the main hall, but it still did not seem crowded .
Several vacant tables were already filled with sumptuous lunches.
Ning Zebo, who had already boarded the Star Harbor, smiled and looked at the American astronauts and said, "According to the time in the United States on Earth, it should be dinner now, but the space station has its own time scale. According to the Star Harbor time, it is now It's 11 o'clock, lunch time. Chinese food, hope you like it."
"Oh no, I've heard about the reputation of Chinese food for a long time, it's this!" The old beauty astronaut gave a thumbs up and laughed.
An extravagant lunch indulgence officially begins. Here, all the astronauts, researchers and members of the armed tactical team going to Mars from all the two countries are listed, the faces of 12 Americans and the faces of 17 middle-aged people, The atmosphere was very harmonious, and many old beauties gave their thumbs up, saying that Chinese cuisine is well-deserved.
After lunch, the group of people who were going to Mars rested for half a day on the Star Harbor. The three members of Ning Zebo, Liu Pingdong, and Xiaozhuang who were driving the "Mars Express" returned to the spacecraft ahead of schedule. The rest of the members who were going to Mars also started preparing and left Starport three hours later.
Two hours ago, a batch of special cargo weighing 27 tons sent by "Arc Eagle VII" was officially delivered to Xinggang, and the cargo compartment was also delivered to "Mars Express" half an hour ago to complete the docking , fixed on the truss docking port, this batch of goods is the equipment provided to the two armed teams of China and the United States. They will undertake the defense mission of the outpost bases of both sides in the future, and this batch of specially modified and produced equipment , is a batch of thermal weapons built and produced for the special harsh environment of Mars after three months.
One and a half hours later, members of the Chinese and American crews who were going to Mars for the mission boarded the core module of the "Mars Express" and transferred to the area where the core module was located.
Two hours later, Ning Zebo's announcement came from the cab more than 2oo meters away from the core cabin, and the crew watched the "Mars Express" and "Tiangong Ring Orbit Star Port" officially separate.
Americans are still very surprised that this huge man-made celestial body called "Mars Express" actually plays the role of a locomotive. Not to mention the tonnage, its actual size and extension length are almost the same as that of a first-class aircraft carrier. The main role is to provide transport capacity.
"Mars Express" looks so slender, it feels like it's fragile, and it has the illusion of being strong on the outside and dry on the outside, but it's not.
After another 1 hour and 5o minutes, when the "Tiangong Ring Orbit Xinggang" disappeared from everyone's sight, a brand-new artificial celestial body was constantly approaching the "Mars Express".
