Men's Kapishi

Although the sky on the ground is just fish belly white now, in the eyes of Xingji and Christen, most of Terra has already been bathed in sunlight.

The two passengers curled up on the seats fixedly looked out of the porthole, the magnificent land and the boundless ocean showed them their whole picture for the first time.

The churning storm, whistling lightning, flickering aurora, dotted clouds, the previously unattainable sky, looked from the porthole of Feiyan and the expanded viewing dome, but it seems to be crawling tightly on the ground.

The worldly desires and disputes, the misery and hustle and bustle of the world are rapidly moving away from Christen and Xingji at this moment. Breaking away from the shackles of gravity, they are qualified to embrace the entire universe.

"It feels good, Terra is beautiful." Christen slowly looked away, playing with the pencil and tablet floating in front of him.

"You have 5 minutes of free time now, you can try to unbuckle your seat belts."

"really?"

"real."

After receiving a positive reply from the little dinosaur, Xingji first tried to unbuckle his seat belt, and then pulled the upper side armrest to get out of the seat in a novel way.

The space in Feiyan's cabin is not large, Xingji tried to turn a few somersaults in the weightless environment, and sat back satisfied.

And Christen seemed to be hindered by his status, so he didn't follow Xingji's somersaults, but just tried to float.

"Ms. Christen, there is still 1 minute to connect to Rhine Life. Your employees should be waiting for you to give a space speech." Tassel and Muirses communicated in a low voice for a while, and then reminded.

"The relay preparations have been completed, and Muirses will report to you at the ground command center."

Seeing Muirses running to interject with starry eyes, the little dinosaur smacked his mouth, but finally said nothing.

"Well, I got it." Christen nodded, looked down at the speech he had written before, paused for a moment, then tore off the writing board and squeezed it into a ball next to the storage belt, and put it upright. Thumb means you are ready.

When the indicator light came on, Christen was quiet for a moment, looked at the countdown on the monitor, and spoke slowly.

"I, Christen Wright, head of Rheinland, speak to all employees at an altitude of 600 kilometers above the earth's surface."

"That blue sphere outside the skylight above my head is Terra."

"Here, there is no medium for sound transmission, no oxygen, no origin stone, life cannot survive here."

"Even so, I still came here. This is undoubtedly a great feat of mankind, and it is also a gamble at the cost of life."

"I have discussed with our partner Karak Heavy Industries many times about the possible dangers, but I still insist on taking risks."

"When I saw this blue planet, I knew it was all worth it."

"I, Xingji, Rhine Life, and Karak Heavy Industries have won a complete victory in this competition without No.2."

"Whether or not I return safely, our deeds and names will live forever in Terra's history."

"We have been staring at this sky for thousands of years, maybe tens of thousands of years ago, and now we have finally reached the sky."

"I know that many people don't understand me, and even lose the original intention and goal of joining Rhine Life."

"But at this moment we should understand that there are infinite universes beyond Terra waiting for us to explore."

"In the future, we will cooperate with our partners in aerospace medicine, biomaterials, aerospace engineering and many other aspects."

"Terra is the cradle of our civilization, and we cannot remain in our infancy forever..."

"Warning! Collision is imminent!"

"Warning! Collision is imminent!"

The instant bright red warning light interrupted Christen's speech.

In just a few seconds, there was no time for people to react. The little dinosaur in the ground command center watched the sudden appearance of tens of thousands of pieces of debris in the space surveillance radar, reflecting the radar waves and flying away, and softly spit out "Wang Defa" three times. words.

Section 374 Chapter 40 PLAN B

"The automatic attitude control system is offline!"

"The orbital cabin is depressurized! The automatic damage control procedure is being executed!"

"The structure of the cockpit is complete, the emergency control system is trying to take over the spacecraft, and the leak has been repaired."

......

"Confirm the status of the astronauts first!" The little dinosaur forced himself to calm down. Although the collision happened so suddenly that there was almost no warning and reaction time, the emergency automatic obstacle avoidance system still responded.

Even if the collision could not be avoided, the left side of the fuselage was almost completely destroyed, while the main structure of the passenger compartment remained largely intact and did not lose contact with the command center. It was only at the moment of the collision that the system recorded an instantaneous overload of tens of thousands of Gs. If he couldn't survive, the little dinosaur didn't dare to think about it.

As long as Xingji and Christen still have breath, there is still a way...it should be.

Liusu quietly glanced at Muirses who was already clenched and trembling beside him, and quietly locked the command room above the hall with authority, so that if Muirses lost control, the damage could be minimized .

It wasn't that Liusu didn't believe in the little dinosaur, it was mainly because she looked down at hundreds of alerts flashing red, and felt a little bit in her heart at that moment, it's over, Barbie Q, ready to eat.

With this level of structural damage, even if Xingji and Christen survived temporarily, they would be torn apart and burned to ashes when they re-entered the atmosphere.

"Vital signs confirmed, they are still alive!"

Finally, good news came, and many people cheered a little in the oppressive atmosphere.

"Try to wake up the astronauts, Group B is off standby, and activate the backup plan!" As soon as the words fell, the little dinosaur turned around and rushed out, but was grabbed by Muirses.

"Where are you going."

"Go save people!" The little dinosaur didn't have time to break free from Muirses's hand holding his white coat, and anxiously opened the door a few times but it didn't open, "Don't make trouble, can you?"

"How do you plan to save?"

Not only Muirses, but Tassel who secretly unlocked the room over there also cast his eyes curiously.

"We still have a spare orbiter, which is the modified anvil with boosters already standing on the launch pad. Although the original flight control system still has problems in space flight and cannot be fully autonomous, the modified The space of the bomb bay into the load bay is enough to fit the entire Feiyan into it."

"You plan to manually control the anvil to dock with Feiyan? Are you crazy?" Liusu's eyes widened in disbelief.

"With a chance, with a chance." As if trying to convince himself, the little dinosaur repeated dully, "If there is nothing wrong with the calculation data, the 8 core-level boosters plus their own power can make the anvil Break through the atmosphere within 70 seconds, and we will definitely be able to catch up before the Feiyan crashes, and we will definitely be able to."

"But you have no way to guarantee accurate rendezvous. You said that the flight control system has loopholes."

"The error is about 2000 meters. I think I can work hard at this distance. I have tried manual flying on the simulator myself."

"This..." Tassel hesitated to speak, and silently released the authority lock of the command room.

"I'll go with you." Muirses leaned against the door with his hands in his pockets.

"You saw what happened just now, I can't guarantee your safety."

"Ms. Christen, the general manager of Rheinland Life, is in distress, and as the only senior manager of Rheinland Life here, I have the right to participate in the rescue operation."

After staring at Muirses for a few seconds, the little dinosaur turned around and stepped out of the gate: "From now on, you must obey all my orders unconditionally."

Amid the creaking friction sound and irregular tremors, the little dinosaur and Muirses held on to the handrail of the elevator, checking each other's space suits in the cabin.

"Our capture window for Feiyan is only ten seconds. Feiyan is seriously damaged, and our spacecraft flight control system does not support precise automatic docking. We have to manually rendezvous with Feiyan. After entering the rendezvous orbit, I will You stare wide-eyed and find me all the objects that may be Feiyan, understand?"

Click, the elevator was in place, the simple wire door opened outwards, and several staff members in protective suits began to assist the two people to board the plane.

The space shuttle modified based on the body of the anvil tactical bomber is much more spacious than the cramped Feiyan. There is a huge control panel between Muirses and the little dinosaur sitting in the co-pilot position.

Watching the little dinosaur loosen the joystick and repeating it several times, Muelses asked in surprise, "Are you nervous?"

"There are two thousand tons of flammable and explosive dangerous materials under our buttocks." The little dinosaur looked at the sky through the windshield, "If there is any slight mistake, we will be blown to nothing. Aren't you nervous?"

"Well...it's okay, after all, it's my duty." The helmet and the spacesuit in the cabin isolated everything, and Muleses thought for a while listening to the answer in the earphone and his own breathing.

"Okay, if you're ready, have you seen the red protective cover on your right?" The little dinosaur glanced at Muelses, "Open it, and press it down with me."

boom--

A huge tremor came from behind, and the explosion-like roar made Muleses subconsciously grasp the armrest, and the booster rocket sprayed out a huge tail flame mixed with the light blue plasma tail flame of the main engine of the anvil.

Compared with Feiyan's elegant lift-off, this pile of space monsters trapped by explosives seems to be ablating everything. The white tons of coolant are completely evaporated in a few seconds, hundreds of meters away. The long tail flame set the entire launch pad on fire.

The violent thrust made the little dinosaur and Muirses have to grit their teeth against the terrible acceleration. Compared with Muirses, the little dinosaur only felt black for a while, even with reliable and effective anti-G equipment, Also in a critical state of coma.

"Procedural turn!"

"The No. 1, No. 3, No. 5, and No. 7 boosters will burn out in three seconds! Separate!"

The first four boosters that ran out of fuel successfully separated with the help of longitudinal separators and reverse thrusters, drew a graceful Korolev cross, and began to roll under atmospheric resistance a few seconds later.

"Boosters No. 2, 4, 6, and 8 are separated!"

"Start matching target orbits! Start calculating rendezvous positions continuously!"

In just over a minute, it seemed like the sea had changed for the little dinosaur and Muirses. Looking at Terra above his head, Muirses was still full of disbelief.

"Command center, can you contact Feiyan?"

"can."

"Take over the communication." The little dinosaur quickly checked the data on the electronic kneeboard and the flight panel, leaving him not enough time.

"Communication link established."

"Call Feiyan, who is driving now?"

Chapter 375 Chapter 41 Countdown

"Hiss~" Xingji Youyou woke up from the stinging pain, she only remembered that the spaceship suddenly issued an alarm, followed by a huge impact and then her eyes went black.

Her transparent mask has been scratched by the debris flying out of the cabin, and a small shallow crater was even punched in the upper right corner.In the dim cockpit, only the red warning symbolizing danger was flashing, and the floating debris and sundries were slowly rotating in front of Xingji.

The body wrapped by the cushioned seat seemed to be pulled away from the bones, and he couldn't use his strength. The calls in the earphones and the alarm of the cockpit computer made Xingji feel extremely noisy.

Lifting his fingers laboriously to disconnect the earphone connection, Xingji looked at the planet flashing past the window at high speed again and again, and understood that this small spaceship had completely lost control under the almost destructive impact. After reaching the apex of the orbit, Under the action of gravity, it will rush to the ground without hesitation.

And his own life will also enter the final countdown, the structurally damaged Feiyan cannot safely pass through the atmosphere again, it will definitely be torn apart in the raging flames, turning into meteors all over the sky, just like when the simulation training went wrong .

The communication request appeared in the center of the helmet display, but Xingji didn't have the slightest intention to connect.

does it worth.

Xingji really wanted to give a negative answer, but she couldn't think of a reason to refute.Delicious ice cream, interesting books, relatives and everyone who treats herself well, her life has just begun and there are countless wonderful scenery and stories waiting ahead.

But when he sees the incomparably bright starry sky and overlooks the earth from space, Xingji understands that everything is worth it, even if he gives up his life.At least I can proudly announce to my sister that the seemingly distant stars are not fantasy, after all, one day, people can reach there.

And this distant journey will start with oneself, even if the price paid is life.

"Boom."

The light impact brought Xingji back to his senses a little. It turned out that Christen on the left also woke up, and the thrown tablet spun and hit Xingji's helmet.

Turning his head, he saw Christen gesturing to Xingji through the transparent mask, signaling Xingji to open the communication.

"Xingji, are you okay?" The little dinosaur's inquiry came from the earphones, making Xingji realize that he might have something to say in his last moments.

"Okay, okay." Xingji thought for a while, "Thank you for taking care of the little dinosaur~ Director these days, I also learned a lot, oh yes, the desserts in the cafeteria of your aerospace department are delicious, they are just for sale It’s too expensive, and there’s also the Remote Sensing Department. I don’t bother to think about the names every time I launch sounding rockets and detectors. What kind of detectors are No. 1, 2, and 3? Wouldn’t it be more romantic? It looks like a space machine with no emotions Same, well, if my name can be used when launching satellites or interstellar probes in the future, maybe I will be happy, ah, if there is a chance to meet Xingyuan..."

"If there's anything you want to talk to your sister about, it's better to say it yourself when you get back."

"Hey?"

"Xingji, listen to me carefully now." The little dinosaur continued without delay, "Our orbits will meet in 18 minutes, but your current flight attitude is very unstable, I need you to find a way to manually control the spacecraft .”

"Hey? Wait, what meeting?" Xing Ji didn't understand for a while.

"Since I sent you to the sky, I have to find a way to bring you home safely. I am currently modifying the anvil as a backup plan. The load bay is enough to hold Feiyan."

"But we only have one chance to rendezvous, we can only succeed, not fail. Feiyan's structure is damaged. The automatic flight and attitude control system has failed. You must manually control the flight attitude through visual reference objects, otherwise our trajectory calculation There will be more serious errors."

"Now the left fuselage of Feiyan is seriously damaged, the main RCS fuel tank is damaged, and most of the sensors are out of order. You can only use the right RCS nozzle and the secondary fuel tank. There is not much fuel, and the number of injections is very limited."

"Your sense of direction is difficult to help in a weightless environment where there is no reference object, but you must remain calm, determine a reference object, and then use limited fuel to try to prevent Feiyan from continuing to rotate."

"Stop! Why me? Ms. Christen is obviously more skilled than me!"

"Because the main driver's joystick was cut off by debris." Christen helplessly raised the multi-function stick head in his hand, "It's only up to you, little Xingji. It's obviously not a good choice to change seats now."

"Then, let me try!"

"Okay, you can start to adjust your posture when you are ready."

"Reference object reference object reference object..." Xingji stared out the porthole and turned his mind rapidly, "It's Terra!"

"Calm down, Xingji, you have to calm down. The flight control has three axes. The RCS on the left side is invalid. Then control the roll first!"

"Shhhhhhhhh!" As Xingji pushed the joystick to the left, the exhaust sound and vibration of the RCS nozzle came through the fuselage.

"Ah, it's turning even faster!"

"Small amplitude and high frequency, small amplitude and high frequency..." Xing Ji recited the mantra silently while trying to continue to control his posture.Watching the huge Terra planet outside the porthole gradually stabilize, Xingji finally heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Christen beside him, and forced a forced smile.

"Good job." Christen also responded with a smile, and then gave a thumbs up to express his affirmation, "If you can land safely, I will give you a bonus."
