0184 We are indeed going to fight
The Shenzhou spacecraft was parked in an orbit 400 kilometers away from the earth. The silver-white spacecraft, several times larger, slowly approached, blocking the sunlight and shrouding the Shenzhou spacecraft in the shadow.↖
Because Huaxia Aerospace was so petty that it refused to open the data interface, Xia Ming could not let Shenzhou connect directly with the Scavenger. It was not difficult for him to crack it, but seeing that Huaxia Aerospace has undertaken one-third of the launch, it is difficult for him to step on their faces, so he had to work hard on his own.
Wearing a space suit, he climbed out of the spaceship and activated the jet device. The machine intelligently controlled the jet ports behind and on the chest, slowly pushing Xia Ming to the cabin door of the Scavenger.
"I'm back!"
Through the cabin door on the abdomen of the spacecraft, Xia Ming entered the Singularity landing cabin stuffed into the Scavenger's body, which was his temporary control center.
By manipulating the Scavenger, Xia Ming started cleaning the earth's orbit again, but this time it was the receipt.
During this period, the aerospace departments of various countries ushered in the peak launch season. More than a dozen rocket launch sites around the world have carried out hundreds of launches in nearly a month, sending thousands of tons of cargo and equipment into space. At the most dense times, some launch sites have launched almost once a day. For humans in this era, they have done their best.
Because they all use the most mature rockets, the cargo is only launched to orbits of up to 400 kilometers, and there is no problem with hundreds of launches so far. This also depends on the application of Gei in the rocket launch control system. Gei will provide more detection and analysis before launch to remind the problem.
The Scavenger was wandering in orbit, constantly receiving "packages" with robotic arms. These packs only had basic posture adjustment engines and control systems to maintain the cargo in the container in satellite orbit.
The spacecraft's cargo hold soon could not put these packages, so Xia Ming directly hung the other packages outside the spacecraft with cables. Gradually, the spacecraft became more and more like a space squid. This had no effect on the movement of the spacecraft, and the intelligence would automatically adjust the posture.
While launching cargo, countries are also carrying out another plan to build a new International Space Station. The International Space Station that Xia Ming burned down has almost reached its life. The new space station directly improved the energy and control systems in the original design to complete reconstruction as soon as possible. In the early stage, it will undertake space adaptability training for observers and deploy space robot workshops to transform the Scavenger.
With the space stations combined with rockets and various equipment required for modifications, the aerospace industries of various countries have also ushered in another spring. However, for governments, the investment has shocked every leader, which is also the key background for the Space Council to be built so quickly.
Just the preliminary project of the space station is hundreds of billions of dollars, and hundreds of launches cost the rocket 200 to 30 billion dollars. In short, every screw sent to space is worth hundreds of dollars. Fortunately, the rocket is the most basic material, and it has a 3D printing workshop, which saves too much space and expenses.
If the costs related to observers are also included, it is estimated that in order to transform the Scavenger, the world spent a total of six to eight hundred billion US dollars to send these dozens of people to Zhishen Star. This is just the beginning of everything.
In mid-August, observers entered the space station, and the Scavenger spacecraft also connected with the space station and began to undergo renovation.
The whole world is broadcasting the live transformation. This spacecraft that once ruled the earth's orbit for two or three months has finally revealed its true face to the world.
Compared with the space stations where long cylindrical cabins are hung on trusses, the spacecraft looks very thick and invisibly gives people a sense of security. When the robotic arm in the middle of the spacecraft pulled out a much smaller old-fashioned spacecraft from behind the butt, billions of people around the world laughed.
Most people laugh because this scene is so suitable for something, but scientists and engineers both sigh that it is really not easy for Xia Ming.
The old spacecraft is the Singularity that Xia Ming flew to Zhishen Star two years ago. Although it has a space pile and a V-MR engine on it, as well as advanced intelligence, it is still too simple for a manned space trip of 500 million kilometers. How determined and courage does Xia Ming dare to use the body of a mortal to drive such a spacecraft to confirm the future of mankind?
At this moment, the silver-white and smooth smart silver shell formed a sharp contrast with the old three-section spacecraft, which made countless people's respect for Xia Ming reach its peak.
Even No. 1 sighed softly when he saw this scene on TV: "Now I am beginning to understand a little bit what he felt when he returned to Earth orbit."
The US president was also watching TV in the White House. The chief of staff next to him said: "We should be glad that Xia Ming did not lose hope for mankind." The president nodded subconsciously.
After removing the Singularity, the robot arm will dismantle it into three sections. The login warehouse is placed in the cargo hold at the front end of the Scavenger and continue to dismantle. The control system above must be installed in the new control cabin. The space stack in the middle section is used as backup energy and will continue to be installed on the Scavenger. The three engines at the back end must be removed and sent to the robot workshop of the space station for upgrade and renovation.
The transformation will last for a long time, and Xia Ming entered the space station through the interface.
"Professor Hawking, I hope you can discover more mysteries of the universe after that star gate and guide humanity to the future."
In the training cabin, Xia Ming met Hawking first.
Hawking's greatest wish is to be able to see outer space in his lifetime. He had previously founded a space enterprise with his partners to promote the exploration program of Centaurus. Now he can cross the star gate and discover strange star domains, which is a temptation for him that is completely irresistible.
The British government opposed him to go, and he threatened to "if I don't let me go, I'll commit suicide live", and then he got what he wanted.
Ensuring that Hawking's body can withstand the high G-force of rocket launches has become a major challenge, but after Star Alliance came up with a human nerve model, this problem was solved. Lilo combined with the power exoskeleton system to design an intelligent anti-G server. Through the human nerve model, Hawking's cardiopulmonary ability is adjusted, and additional breathing and blood push assistance are provided.
This system worth tens of millions of dollars ensures that Hawking can go to the sky smoothly and maintains good condition under zero gravity.
"Xia, you are the future of mankind, don't be disappointed in them," Hawking still tilted his head, his eyes flashed, and deep words came from his voice.
It's hard to say, it depends first on whether they have lost hope.
Xia Ming thought so, of course he was not good at slapping against the old man, and said with a smile: "We need to work together in the future."
There was nothing to talk to the representatives of governments of various countries, so Xia Ming talked to the representatives of the public one by one.
Liu looked like he had not yet subsided from his excitement: "What is behind that door? How should I tell you?"
"Let everyone fully understand the despair that is even more sinister than "The Three-Body Problem", and let everyone not give up hope for the future," Xia Ming can only say this.
"I hope to talk about the authorization of the next movie. "Star Chaser" has been affected too much politically," Cameron said when he saw him that this late-stage agitated patient who had once reached heaven and earth was conceiving a new movie again.
Xia Ming changed the topic and said, "When you get there, you will have to choose difficult problems. There are too many subjects to take pictures."
Musk shook hands with him enthusiastically, then held him and floated to the corner of the training cabin, sighing: "If you don't destroy my factory and rocket workshop, the progress will be twice as fast."
Xia Ming put away his smile and said seriously: "Then you won't have a chance to go to heaven, and you might stay in federal prison for the rest of your life."
“Yes, anyway…”
Musk's handshake became even stronger, and he said unnaturally: "Thank you for your forgiveness!"
"This is also for humanity," Xia Mingxin said, emotionally speaking, I have not forgiven you.
In view of Xiaotang's failure and its help to the entire operation, Xia Ming gave up further revenge on him. Because Musk's space-x company can play an important auxiliary role in the follow-up, Xia Ming also allowed him to go to Zhishen Star with his boss, Bezos, the boss of another powerful private space company, Blue Harbor. These two people, like Cameron, are both agitated patients who cannot meet even if they go to heaven and earth.
"I will look at you," Xia Ming said in a warning tone, and Musk threw a military salute to him.
In the rest cabin, Xia Ming met another compatriot. This young man with a feminine appearance and beautiful appearance is Yang Dan, a young man who is leading the trend in China, and even the entire East Asia.
"I feel very uncomfortable... Mr. Xia, can I let me go back?"
Yang Dan's eyes were turning around, looking painful as if life was worse than death.
He was forced to come. Although he himself joined the agency and didn't want to join this adventure, he had to come with a word "the country needs it". Seeing the momentum that countless fans liked him, the agency also changed his attitude, which made the young and handsome guy who only knew how to behave was very depressed. After staying in space for a few days, the initial freshness faded, and fear swept his body and mind again, and he retreated.
Before Xia Ming could speak, a pretty figure floated over, using his hands and feet like an octopus, climbing up to Xia Ming: "Aming! The Rocket almost shook me apart!"
It was Xiaohuan. This time, Xiaohuan said she would not leave him anymore and insisted on accompanying him.
Not only Xiaohuan, but Xiaotang is the same, but she still has some things to be busy with and it will take several days to go to heaven.
"Hello, I'm Yang Dan. You should have seen me on TV. May I ask you..."
Yang Dan's eyes lit up and he suddenly became energetic.
"Yang Dan? Who do you don't know me?"
Xiaohuan hugged Xia Ming's neck, poked his head out of his shoulder, and asked strangely.
"Uh... haven't you watched TV?" Yang Dan was a little unbelievable.
Xiaohuan took off her sunglasses and her eyes spewed out white light: "I'm blind, I can't see anything..."
Looking at Yang Dan, who was already stupid, Xia Ming said in a chat: "Why are you kidding me?"
"When my aunt was a heartthrob, she was still wearing open-crotch pants?"
Xiaohuan bit Xia Ming's ear and said, "Xia Ming can't smile bitterly. Back then? It's only been three or four years."
However... it has been four years since r3ai's "upper body".
Xia Ming turned his head and kissed Xiaohuan. Xiaohuan also grew up and was no longer the nervous little girl at the beginning.
Then his mouth was blocked by Xiaohuan, and she ignored the fact that there were still many people staring at him and gave him a French-style deep kiss.
I was wrong, Xiaohuan was still the nervous little girl.
Dragging Xiao Huan who was almost stuck to him, Xia Ming came to another part of the cabin, where some other people received adaptive training.
Yi Liqing is responsible for the construction and management of the robot workshop, and Dongfangsheng is responsible for the modification of the ion engine. They will not go to the Scavenger.
Ansen, Wen Dehua, Lao Hong, Huang Old Man, Liu Zhen, Su Yu, and Hou Yunting, these people will follow him to Zhishenxing.
"Boss, are we really going to fight alien monsters?"
Anson was counting the goods, looking at a bunch of weapons, he said with a smacking tongue.
"It's not an alien there, and it's not a monster we're going to fight," Xia Ming said, saying hello to everyone one by one.
Chapter completed!
