Super Weapon Exchange System

Eagle Country, Space Launch Center.

When confronting the highest peak that year, in order to fight for hegemony in space, the Eagle and Xiong countries once invested heavily in the space race. Whether it was launching satellites, spacecraft, or landing on the moon, they were full of enthusiasm. After the actor president of Eagle Country put forward the Star Wars plan, this confrontation was brought to a climax.

Now, the confrontation has slowly ended. Xiong Guo is already dying, and Eagle State has also given up those unrealistic plans, or that it was a strategic deception. Eagle State’s aerospace industry has also temporarily entered. low tide.

As it is now, successive launches are quite rare.

The Space Shuttle Grubia is the first space shuttle built by Eagle Nation. This space shuttle has been in service for ten years and has the largest number of flights, exceeding ten times!

Although the space shuttle can be reused hundreds of times at the time of design, it is actually far from reaching this number, especially after the Challenger exploded, it was grounded for several years, and only started in the last year or two. During intensive launch missions, at the peak, there are three chances of getting into orbit a year.

This launch was decided temporarily. Fortunately, Eagle Nation already has a mature aerospace system. It quickly selected the crew members. A total of six people formed a temporary mission echelon. Now, they have all entered the space shuttle. In his cockpit, lying on the large flight seat, preparing for takeoff.

Commander Ramon, who has been in space seven times, has a wealth of experience. Next to him is the pilot Layce. While waiting for the countdown, their moods are quite calm. Then, as the order to fire, their bodies With tremors below, the space shuttle's engines began to burn surgingly, and the hydrogen-oxygen engine with a hot tail flame propelled them to space.

Due to the time difference, it is dark here. The flame of the engine is shining in the night sky, and it quickly disappears into the dark night with the entire aircraft. The booster is separated, the fuel tank is separated, and they have entered the space. in!

Most of the operations are controlled by the ground. After the feeling of overweight on the body disappears, weightlessness follows. In space, they are free from the influence of gravity and can float in and out in the space capsule.

"Attention, we are going to launch satellites." Ramon shouted.

Using the space shuttle to launch a satellite is quite easy. Open the cargo compartment, then grab the satellite with a robotic arm and throw it out. It’s that simple! It looks very sci-fi.

The launch mission ended within two hours, and then, after several orbit changes, they began to fly towards the satellite that was out of control.

GPS navigation satellites!

This kind of satellites have already matured. In recent years, they have launched a large number of networks and have global positioning capabilities. But now, a considerable part of them have lost their function, making many of their precision-guided weapons unusable. Repair these Satellites are the top priority.

During this period of time, the satellite engineers have studied many situations. The Grubia has also carried a lot of maintenance parts. With the remaining four people on the space shuttle, one is responsible for the manipulator, and the remaining three are all Those in charge of repairing satellites are looking forward to repairing them quickly.

"Attention, we are getting close to the scheduled track." Ramon said.

Reyce was controlling the flight of the space shuttle, and a small stream of air was continuously ejected from the tail, adjusting the attitude and orbit of the space shuttle, and heading towards the out of control satellite.

The ground control station constantly monitors their orbit. This is like driving a plane to find a mosquito. It is not easy. If they are not lucky, they will not even be able to find the target.

At this time, they gradually moved to the twilight line, where they can see the reflection of the solar panels on the satellite with the help of the sunlight that has just appeared, and then they can easily find the position of the satellite, and then continue to approach. All of this, All need superb technology, this is acrobatics in space!

At this moment, suddenly, they heard a crisp sound, which immediately caused everyone to fall into the ice cave: "We were hit by a tiny space junk!"

In aerospace, the most feared is space junk! A very fast spacecraft, even if it collides with a millimeter-level space junk, may also have catastrophic consequences. After all, they will not only go to the sky, but also go back. If there is a crack, when they return. , It may disintegrate.

Although the ground is constantly monitoring space junk, it is almost impossible to find centimeter-level space junk from the ground radar, and even a piece of millimeter-level debris may be brought to them. Disastrous impact! This sound is so clear, maybe it is the result of a few centimeters of metal fragments hitting it?

Although there is a lot of space junk, the universe is broader, so if you hit this kind of space junk, you can only say that you are not lucky enough.

There is even the most terrible situation. Two satellites collided in space, and countless fragments were knocked out. Although it was interpreted as an accident, only a little brain would know that one of them must be an anti-satellite attack!

Now, they have run into something, which is unlucky enough.

After discussing with the ground, Ramon, the most experienced, came out of the cabin wearing a spacesuit. After careful searching, he found a walnut-sized piece of solar panel on the belly of the plane and inserted it in their spaceflight. The belly of the plane just fits into a beam in the middle!

Big trouble!

When the space shuttle enters the atmosphere, in order to decelerate, for a period of time, it uses the belly of the aircraft to provide greater air resistance to decelerate. Under the current circumstances, if they do so, they are likely to start from this impact. The location is broken!

They went to space, intending to perform a mission, but now, they are afraid they can't go back!

They don’t need to think about repairing satellites anymore. What they have to consider now is how to return home safely!

If it was before, they might be able to try to venture back home, but after the Challenger crashed, they were already terrified. If the Grubia crashed again, the space shuttle could almost be retired, and the Eagle Nation is now almost all Relying on the space shuttle to carry out manned spaceflight, if the space shuttle is gone, they will not have the ability to enter space!
