Chapter 309 When the rocket launch is in progress
Qupai's technical team came and left, leaving Lin Qishan and his working team, and continued to enter the intense preparations for the pre-launch stage.
At this time, Lin Qishan no longer stayed in a hotel. He was asked to concentrate in the astronaut's dormitory to maintain a regular daily routine. The three crew members in the crew worked together to develop tacit understanding habits.
The dormitory is a single room and the conditions are pretty good. Of course, it is definitely not as good as the Ritz Hotel, but Lin Qishan still just opens his mouth whenever he wants to do anything, and the secretary and assistant are on call.
This is what distinguishes Lin Qishan from others. Russia has no objection to this, because Lin Qishan’s training tasks can be completed well, and you can’t ask other billionaires to work hard.
Moreover, keeping non-professional astronauts in a good attitude is also one of the key points.
One month before launch, the focus of training gradually focused on the psychological state.
In the doctor's report, Lin Qishan was very different from other people who went to space for the first time. When others were about to launch, they would feel nervous, confused, and worried about the pressure of not doing well.
But this guy was excited, eager to try, and was so excited that he wanted to show off, so he was so excited that he needed to calm him down. His doctor marked it in this regard.
Then, as a translator, Kajia said to him one by one: "It's not good that you are too excited. You have to calm down your emotions. Everything is followed by long instructions, and there is no woman to accompany you when you go up!"
"I know."
Lin Qishan is dedicated to both one's own efforts and obedient to do things without any mistakes.
Kajia pushed his chest away and scolded, "You really can't stop for a moment, right?"
Lin Qishan found an explanation: "There is a famous saying in my hometown that life is short and enjoying timely! Who knows what you will encounter when you go up? What if your rocket explodes?"
"You won't be a problem, and the escape measures are very sound," she said.
"There is a probability, so I might as well pay attention to the moment." Lin Qishan slapped his hand, and the other party naturally understood and changed his running posture.
However, Lin Qishan's psychological excitement was indeed noticed. The psychological experts communicated a lot with him and treated him smoothly through various methods. Don't be determined to create a feat.
Because space is not an arena, seeking stability instead of being eager to perform, now I am not afraid of his skills being out of line, but I am afraid of being reckless and not taking into account details.
Lin Qishan also adjusted his mentality well and returned to the kind of ancient well imperfection, and then there were frequent daily centrifuge training and vestibular training.
Both of these items were carried out intensively before launch. The former was to overcome the tolerance of rocket launch, while the latter determined the degree of discomfort response of astronauts' vestibular during the acute adaptation period of weightlessness.
In his spare time, Lin Qishan went fishing with the commander. It seemed that when men got older, they all liked to study these skills. They took a small boat to the lake, fished for a short day, and then won the glorious Air Force (get nothing), but Kudlinsky proudly claimed that this cultivated their psychological qualities of being in a state of chaos.
Lin Qishan was quite suspicious. This was just the perfect excuse for the veteran driver to give him the Air Force!
Or learn some mechanical structure from engineer Dubayev. This is a harder core than the command. His research direction is weapons and equipment in space. Therefore, Lin Qishan also learned from him how to design and model weapon parts, assemble and use, and transform them, etc.
Lin Qishan felt that this guy was more promising, and the feeling of Star Wars was coming.
As the days passed day by day, the countdown to launch finally arrived.
The space agency has sent its final plan: launching the Soyuz manned rocket on August 6!
There are three people in the crew and are expected to stay in the space station for seven days.
The location is located in the Baikonur Space Launch Site in central Kazakhstan.
After receiving the final confirmation news, Lin Qishan also put down the stone in his heart.
The training over the past six months, the sweat and unremitting efforts have finally ushered in a day of blossoming and fruiting! He is going to go to space, and once it is successfully completed, he will set multiple records!
I can't help feeling a little excited, but I also secretly told myself that this is nothing. You have practiced it countless times. You have memorized everything you should do and you should be responsible for. You are also old drivers who lead the way. There is no difficulty!
Before leaving for Kazakhstan, the astronauts went for a physical examination again to confirm the final status and ensure that they could meet the requirements of aerospace operations.
The result was unexpected. Three astronauts and their working team flew to Kazakhstan on a special plane and stayed at the hotel designated by the astronauts first. They had to wait until the launch day before going to the launch site.
When he was in the hotel, Lin Qishan began all the tradition of following the old predecessors.
In the Russian aerospace field, it is actually particularly important to follow traditions.
Kudlinsky had already told him in advance: "On the way to the launch site, you should leave some urine for yourself, because on the prairie, we have to get off the bus and pee on the tires!"
"Is this legend true?" Lin Qishan also heard something in front of him.
The commander was very serious and affirmative: "This is a tradition left by our aerospace senior Gagarin. On the way to the rocket launch pad, he asked for parking in the Kazakh grassland, and then walked to the rear of the car and urinated towards the back of the car."
"So tradition continues to this day. When all our astronauts pass through the grassland, they follow the tradition. Even lesbians will prepare urine in advance in the bottle, and then fall on the tire after they arrive at the place!"
Lin Qishan suddenly thought of another thing: "Then is it true that you bring Volt and space?"
Kudlinsky shrugged when he heard this, and then Dubayev next to him silently took out a bottle of brandy from the head of the bed, using a humor you only know now: "Why are you talking about this?"
"oh!"
Lin Qishan laughed when he saw it. It turned out that the Russians really brought wine to space!
It's just not the rumored vodka, but Armenian brandy!
And this is also a tradition, and it is persistent like superstitious by astronauts!
But you should know that before 2006, both the Soviet Union and Russia were banned from bringing alcohol, and even in the former Soviet era, alcohol ban was implemented in China!
But how could this stop the Russians from having a determination to drink!
In the popular science they talked about to this oriental friend, Lin Qishan deeply understood this tradition.
The first warrior to bring wine to the house can be traced back to 1971.
The Russian who couldn't help but want to drink in space, he hid a bottle of Armenian brandy in his blood pressure monitor and successfully got away from the quarantine and brought it to space!
Of course, someone asked, rocket launching and space orbiting are precisely required for every little weight, because changing weight may affect the center of gravity of the spacecraft. What should I do?
So in order to avoid such an accident, a fierce man with wine from behind, tried to lose weight for himself. A week before the launch, he only ate bread and drinks tea, and successfully reduced two kilograms!
So he not only brought enough brandy to it, but also brought pickled cucumbers and stuffed them under the space suit, put them close to the body, and went to space safely!
Lin Qishan was almost laughing when he heard this. Is this really a king of heaven that can't stop the Maoist astronauts from drinking in space?
There is even more exaggerated thing behind it. There is the most powerful Russian astronaut who carried out the largest space alcohol smuggling in history - pouring 12 bottles of brandy into six plastic bags with screw caps and successfully bringing them to space!
In his memoir, he said: "We only drink one small sip at a time, about 20 grams. It is not like drying it in one sip, but holding it in our mouths, tasting the taste with the tip of our tongue, and finally swallowing it slowly. The process can last up to ten minutes!"
Don’t underestimate the amount of this sip of wine. After a day of work and experiments in a quiet and unmanned space, various emotions and anxiety will arise. If it is not effectively controlled, it will also have malignant consequences. Therefore, this sip of wine is more effective than sedatives!
So it has developed to modern times. After considering the effect of alcohol on them, Russo began to allow alcohol to be brought on.
Because it’s not considered a waste of money, there are still ways to smuggle in space!
Therefore, Dubayev and Kudlinsky, the bedside were prepared with the must-have for astronauts that lasted for decades - Armenian brandy!
Only Lin Qishan looked at the vodka he secretly brought, and felt careless! It turned out that the space Russians were drinking brandy, not vodka!
Chapter completed!
