After Becoming a Little Sister

As the most mature rocket model of the Republic, Changer has successfully launched 45 times, and [-] of them were manned rockets. It was so terrifying that the colleagues shook their heads and had nothing to say.

Perhaps the 100% success rate or something is so terrifying that many people in China think that a rocket launch is impossible to fail at all, but they don't want to see Milliken on the other side of the ocean who can use his caress to beat up an alien flying saucer. How many cases of failed launches.

"It's normal to lose, it's good to find mistakes and solve them. It can only be said that there are no absolutes in the world. We should look at probability rationally, and it is up to people to make things happen." Nothing is wrong, I am worried about how terrifying it will be to save a handful of bad luck African Emirates in the future."

It is frustrating to have a wrong test launch, but from a long-term perspective, it is fortunate that the problem is found during the test launch, and the risk can be reduced when the official launch is launched.

"Speaking of which, what does your Republic think?" Spicy Chicken Silk asked curiously: "I saw your public data before. The No. [-] series has five types of A, B, D, and EF, but there is no B type. Why?"

Arya raised her finger: "It must be because of the name. If B is replaced by a letter, it is B. 2B or something sounds too ugly."

"Eh? Really? Is it because of this?" Spicy Chicken Si's eyes widened in surprise.

She is really convinced about this reason - although the people of the Republic are not superstitious, they always want to get lucky in strange places. For example, most of the floors of the hotel do not have the fourth floor, and the rooms basically avoid the number 4 and so on. of.

"Hahahahaha, of course not. In fact, Changsan is the original Changer II. Because the changes were too great after adding a low-temperature third-stage rocket, we simply opened a new line."

This is the same as after 59 changed to 62, because the change is too big to open a new line, although it is still five pairs of wheels in essence.

"No. [-] is still in service now, but after all, it can't keep up with the needs of the times. The reason why Xiquan Satellite Launch Base launched No. [-] this time is for the construction of the space station." Golden Char Siew ran over with a dozen snacks. Hear their discussion also joined in: "The payload of No. [-] is much larger than that of No. [-], and it was developed for deep space exploration missions."

"How much are you going to launch this time?"

"This time, Fat Five is going to send the nearly 22-ton Tushita Palace experimental module into space, and also bring the relay center node of a quantum communication satellite a little bit up." Tanshou: "About [-] tons."

"Oh, strong!" Arya exclaimed, raised the telescope again, and tried to see clearly the [-]-ton space station module that was mocked as a Yakult bottle.

As the biggest fat five in the entire Rocket family, its figure is more rounded than the Rocket with a bigger head in Arya's impression, and the whole body is also bigger than that of the same family.

At first, Arya thought that something would be removed from its neck, but after the launch tower was opened, she suddenly found that the head of this guy was as thick as the neck - completely subverting the family style, it seems that the space station cabin Sections are all hidden inside.

From her distance, the fat five with a total length of 56.97 meters actually looks a bit stubby, but fortunately, the booster looks much sharper.

Especially the rear wing of the blockbuster, there is a subtle sense of 'this thing has infinite power'.

The rocket was slowly pushed out. The huge launch tower was one-third higher than the tall rocket. The whole showed a green color tone, and it looked like a general office building, covered with green. Mesh, and the white rocket rests next to the launch pad.

Aliya also tried to take a picture of Fat Five's lower body with her mobile phone, but unfortunately her composition was too watery, and she abruptly took Fat Five as No. 40 B, which lost a lot of points - the latter was only more than [-] meters in diameter and the diameter was also smaller. It was two circles smaller than Fat Five, who was more than five meters long, and belonged to the dwarfs in the family series. In Alia's memory, they both had the same thick head and neck.

Of course, this is much better than some royal photographers who took the process of hoisting more than 20 tons of heavy guys into a claw machine and hoisted the Yakult style.

Compared with the more than 20 tons of Tusita Palace, the Juzi quantum communication satellite is really a fraction, and it is even more invisible in the telescope.

Arya put down the telescope in disappointment, and felt that she was lonely after looking at it for a long time-she also wanted to see what these sophisticated things looked like.

"Exploring the universe on Blue Star, and sending humans to the stars, what do you need?" Golden Char Siu asked with his hands on his hips, suddenly a little literary girl.

Khaki Wild was silent for a while, and said softly: "It needs a decision-making level with a long-term strategic vision, it needs the support of 26 ministries and commissions, and it needs the cooperation of hundreds of different departments under its jurisdiction, from parts design to processing to transportation, from preparation From launch to telemetry—only a great nation can complete a deep space exploration program.”

"Yes, a great country." Spicy Chicken Shreds nodded and raised his chin proudly: "That country is our rice—"

"That's right, it's down!" Alia pressed her chest and pressed her behind her, and took a step forward: "That country is our Republic!"

"...We Milikan are the pioneers of deep space exploration!"

"You can pull it down. You have even sealed the space shuttle. You have to rely on Musk's private rocket to help you deliver it, and you are still exploring the universe?"

"That's because of the cost!"

"Why don't you say it's because you were angry after the Soviet Union was gone?"

The confrontation during the Cold War gave rise to a variety of black technologies. Although the space program caused a lot of panic and economic pressure at the time, the various technologies derived from the space program laid the foundation for the technology for decades to come. development foundation.

The advancements in dynamics and metallurgical materials brought by the aviation industry have greatly promoted the birth cycle of later advanced aircraft.

The global communication chain and surface information communication channels used in aerospace are the predecessors of satellite networks, positioning networks and the Internet.

From satellites to camera systems to navigation and positioning to artificial intelligence, there are so many things that go hand-in-hand with it.

The predecessor of the Internet today is the Arpanet used by the Millikin military, and the technology of the Arpanet comes from the prototype of the information and communication network specially created for the arms race during the Cold War.

Many things that are indispensable in the life of Bluestar today can be traced back to that time. Even if the mobile phones, computers and tablets used today, the core chips also benefited from the requirements for computing power in that period to achieve such rapid development—— In 1943, IBM CEO Watson said that the world only needed 5 computers. This sentence was later regarded as a laughing stock by countless people.

But this is really not caused by his narrow cognition, but because the need for 'computers' at that time was really only the cutting-edge needs of the military and aerospace fields. The computer in 1943 could not even It is the computer that people know today. After all, the generation difference between transistors and integrated circuits is too big, and even the first computer, Eniac, made with electronic tubes, was only 3 years later, in 1946, in Pennsylvania. State was born.

That thing weighs more than 30 tons and uses more than 8000 electronic tubes. Who would have imagined that this kind of thing would be as light as a few hundred grams in the future, and it would enter the homes of ordinary people—no, no ghost would have imagined.

After all, the development of the times is too fast. The computing power of all the supercomputers used in the moon landing is not as strong as the current mobile phone. Although this comparison method is unfair, the perception is not strong, and the direction is wrong, but Anyway, it also proves that the times are moving forward in great strides.

In fact, the 75 pieces of equipment in the Apollo program, including the guidance computer, consumed the general integrated circuit production capacity in the world at that time, and the software level was written by hand, and it was written by the cooperation of 350 engineers. The code, when printed out, is as tall as a person—that is already the crystallization of the times, not the tears of the times.

Humans in the new century who have stronger technology, but are still standing still or even retrogressing, are the tears of the times.

"Is it going to launch?" Lianhua glanced at his watch: "It's 08:30 soon."

"Come on, I see them moving the umbilical tower."

"By the way, this drink tastes good... It's subtle, white snake grass water?" Spicy Chicken Shreds' voice was suspicious.

"...Why does the topic go that way?" Alia looked up from behind her body: "What are you doing?"

"I tasted the drink brought back by classmate Jin." Spicy Chicken Shake the glass in his hand: "The taste is very... unique, and it is not difficult to drink."

She is the kind of person who has to pour out the happy water and drink it in a special cup, even when she is outdoors, she is just as elegant, but she is bitter and crying.

"It's not hard to drink. Those comments on the Internet are just rumors. This thing was specially exported back then, and you can't buy it if you want to drink it."

"It's just that the flavor is unique and hard to describe."

"Give it to me." Arya took the cup in her hand and took a sip. After a while, she said, "Have you ever eaten Turtle Cream?"

"Eat, what's wrong?"

"The soup in the Guiling paste, with a little bit of bubbles, is the taste."

"...you're telling the truth!"

"I said, take a serious look at the launch, what are you drinking a strange drink... After all, why is this here?"

"I got it." Golden Char Siew looked happy: "This is the drinking water for the meeting here. I brought a few bottles over here. In addition, the cafeteria here is preparing a celebration banquet. This launch will definitely be successful. of!"

"I think so too." Alia sipped the white flower snake grass water and looked at the rocket in the distance: "After all, today's starry sky is not dim at all, and it is even extremely bright..."

For a while, everyone also expressed their feelings.

Milk Beer Rhubarb was very rational, he cleared his throat: "Young Master, I think—"

"Shut up! Eat the buns! Eat more! You are not allowed to say anything good or bad now!"

Brother Qiang put the bun in his hand into his mouth - he will die!Talking nonsense will kill people!

Saying bad things at this time will be picked up by other people who eat melons at the viewing platform, and if you say good things...

Forget it, don't say anything.

launch command hall

The huge launch command hall was silent, and everyone was nervously looking at the screen in front of them.

The engineers present were uniformly dressed in blue overalls, and only a few people wore different clothes. Among them, a young lady in a red suit was standing next to her, with a tag hanging on her chest, and her eyes swept across the scene in the launch hall.

She was checking the manuscript and had two different manuscripts at hand—this was the live reporter.

The two manuscripts dealt with different responses to launch success and launch failure, respectively. Although it sounds out of date and even a bit unlucky, the news work in these areas is actually prepared.

If the launch fails, then public opinion will try to guide the public's attention and reduce everyone's dissatisfaction.

This is probably a rare launch failure in the past, and they summed up the work experience that they did not want to use.

There was an engineer who explained the launch process in a low voice, so that the female reporter would not make a fool of himself and make some common sense mistakes during the live broadcast later. It can be seen that this little engineer is very shy, and his ears are hard when he talks. Slight redness.

The reporter, on the other hand, smiled politely, peeking at the face of the handsome engineer who was wearing glasses, nodding frequently, and tugging her hair behind her ears from time to time, making her movements soft.

The staff who were in charge of shooting some unimportant pictures whispered something. Some people raised their fingers and pointed to the main control room on the second floor, as if they were suggesting something, and some people shook their heads and softly explained the reasons.

In the end, they gave up their plan to go up to conduct interviews - news practitioners in this industry will not know what kind of giants in the system the person in charge of the Xiquan Satellite Launch Base is, interviewing this kind of thing is acceptable to others No, the uncrowned king is the same for aerospace people with military backgrounds.

The giants at this time were talking to each other in the main control center on the second floor. One of the old men and General Lu sat face to face, watching the situation below and talking.

"Academician Long, I asked the logistics masters to prepare a celebration feast. After the launch, everyone will have a good meal."

In front of the old man, General Lu looked very humble, not at all like the calmness of a mountain like last night, but more like a student.

In fact, he is indeed a student of the other party - Academician Long is the chief engineer of the entire Tianting space station project, the leader of the National Academy of Sciences, and one of the engineers in the rows of stations below has the same teacher and student as him.

"This is to eat breakfast as dinner!" The gray-haired but spirited old man laughed and waved his hand: "No hurry, no hurry-a few years ago, we thought the same thing, and we ended up being the last one to eat. no one."

He was talking about the failure of Fat Wuyao [-]'s launch at the beginning. General Lu smiled slightly when he heard the words, and then sighed slightly: "It's not your fault, it's normal for accidents to occur in the launch, and the success now is because of those experiences. "

"But everyone doesn't think so." The old man took off his glasses and wiped it with the corner of his clothes, then said with a hearty smile: "It doesn't matter, the children have come through, and they are fine now."

At the beginning, the launch of Fat Wuyao [-] was the last test flight of the lunar exploration project. Once the test flight was successful, the follow-up lunar exploration project would be carried out. Delay, the chain reaction is serious.

After lift-off, the fat five problems that deviated from the predetermined orbit were too unprepared. At that time, whether it was ground observation or sea observation, they could not find where it flew. The entire launch team had no data source. He didn't even know what went wrong, and he was under unimaginable pressure -- especially the launch problem of the previous No. [-]B rocket.

For the Republic, a country with a launch success rate of nearly 95 percent, citizens have long been accustomed to hearing good news of success.

The sudden defeats followed, just like the world-famous table tennis or the women's volleyball team did not reach the finals, which made people feel astonished.

No one will blame the men's football team, because he has always been very good, as long as he can pass the line, it is enough for people to praise him for his great progress.

No one expects ping pong, because it has always been very strong, and not being able to win the championship is a joke - a joke that can't be laughed.

This is probably the simplest psychological gap problem. In fact, few people pay attention to the prudence of the Republic in launching rockets or even the lag of technology. In order to ensure the success rate, fried rice is an almost inevitable part - it must be said that it is a mature choice Technology is not bad either.

But the problem brought about by this approach is that once it is used to develop a new rocket, such as a guy with a large load such as the Fat Five, the reasonable error that occurs will be magnified by public opinion, or even not understood by the public.

People don't want to understand what technology or innovation is, they just want to hear the good news they want to hear, and they don't even care what the truth behind the good news is.

This is probably the mentality of those who said 'the motherland is really strong' to the video of the Falcon rocket launch, and the photos of Zhang Zhidong Zeng Guofan's history textbook on the short video platform, saying that this is Li Hongzhang is essentially a group of people , no matter how well-intentioned the compulsory education is, it will only make them recognize a few more words, and it is simply powerless for them to learn how to see the world.

This is probably the modern version of Zhang Guan Li Dai...

General Lu thought for a while, and comforted: "Yao Er's team spent 280 days to reset the fault to zero. I believe their efforts will not be let down, and all efforts will be rewarded."
