Chapter Four Hundred and Sixth - A soldier must not be proud
Chapter 406 - A scholar cannot be without Hongyi
On July 21, 2011, the U.S. space shuttle "Atlantis" landed safely at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 5:57 a.m. Eastern Time on the 21st (17:57 Beijing time on the 21st), ending its "
"The Curtain Call" means the end of the 30-year space shuttle era in the United States.
All the remaining space shuttles in the United States have been retired. If they continue to serve beyond their service period, the probability of losing precious astronauts will be terrible.
Americans no longer have the courage to use space shuttles to send astronauts into the sky. Until a better manned space system comes out, they may only use disposable manned spacecraft to send astronauts to outer space for a long time.
space.
This has to be done. In low-Earth orbit, there is a huge International Space Station that requires Americans to participate in maintenance, otherwise this big thing of more than 400 tons will hit the earth like a meteorite.
The force of falling to the ground is no less than being hit by a small nuclear warhead, which will hit anyone who is unlucky.
The space station displayed in front of Group E is a low-Earth orbit space station model independently designed and developed by the Chinese. The completed body will weigh more than 2,000 tons, have a wingspan of more than 500 meters, and can be stationed by 20 astronauts for maintenance operations.
and conduct space science research.
Because of the opposition and restrictions of the United States, as well as China's limited space funding, China is unable to participate in the International Space Station (ISS), so it can only bury its head in developing its own space industry. Instead of letting others burn bridges, it is better to carve out a prosperous road on its own.
Lin Mo saw the large space station model in the Fifth Space Training Center and understood the deep meaning in Major General Sun's eyes.
A scholar must be ambitious and have a long way to go.
Isn’t it important to consider benevolence as one’s own responsibility?
Isn't it just a matter of time before death?
China's aerospace industry is also a long and thorny road.
This exhibition center displays these advanced and even highly confidential things for astronaut candidates to visit and learn more about its purpose. It is also to encourage them to unleash their full potential and become excellent astronauts.
Anyone who can come here has their loyalty guaranteed by three insurances, and there is no need to worry about the risk of confidentiality being lost.
"Keep reading. This is just a part. There are more and more exciting things. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
When the elimination system is not being implemented, Major General Sun is more like an amiable elder, leading visitors to continue viewing other exhibition areas.
The space shuttle model, which is about the size of a fighter jet and scaled five times, is far more eye-catching than the "Shenzhou" series of spacecraft currently in use.
There are even aerospace fighter jets, making it impossible for visitors to tell whether this is a creative model or a real research and development product. I am afraid that when foreign spies come here, they will be immediately shrouded in doubts after the initial shock.
This has exceeded astronaut candidates' understanding of China's aerospace industry, which is more like a science fiction world.
Lin Mo, however, keenly discerned the appearance design of the one-to-one physical model of the aerospace fighter. It was quite the style of his teacher, Professor Yan. I am afraid that it was placed here not only as a souvenir, but also to bluff people. As for whether the aerospace fighter really existed
Fighters, there are two of them. Maybe there are one or two experimental aircraft hidden in some corner at a huge cost.
The unit production cost of the US space shuttle is US$1.2 billion, which is enough for China to build an aircraft carrier. If it is an aerospace fighter, it may have to be doubled.
After turning one or two exhibition halls, they heard loud rumbling noises and the roar of people. Lin Mo and others from Group E looked over and found two giant machines about two stories high making a rumbling operation, and Lin Mo and others.
The very familiar sound of a jet engine.
However, there is no jet but strong airflow and the special smell of aviation fuel after combustion. It is just that the sound is imitated very vividly, as if it is a real fighter jet revving its engine.
"Those are two simulators. The multi-axial 128-degree-of-freedom high-load flight simulator can simulate high overloads close to that of a spacecraft. Of course, it can also simulate the cockpit and flight simulation of all domestic fighter jets. It can
Achieving 100% realistic simulation is one of the assets of the aerospace training center, and the cost of each one is not much cheaper than combat, at least 12 billion yuan."
Seeing the confusion on the faces of the people in Group E, Major General Sun, who was following Group E, took the initiative and said, but the cost of 12 billion still shocked everyone.
12 billion? Just one machine?
Lin Mo had seen a flight simulator from the Defense Star, which was considered advanced enough, but he didn't expect that there was an even better one here. The one from the Defense Star was nothing compared to the two here.
It is said that the aerospace industry is burning money, and I really saw it today.
Everyone who hears this sky-high price will unconsciously pronounce a silent "o". This can't help but surprise. The money for these two simulators is directly invested in the Hope Project, and primary school students in remote and impoverished areas across China
There is no need to worry about not having a good school environment, even middle schools can be covered.
But in fact, everyone who has played construction games knows that demand is unlimited and resources are limited. This choice is so difficult.
"Beautiful! Well done, team leader, you are really amazing!"
"It's eye-opening. This No. 2 is really good at it."
"No. 15, don't be discouraged. Their flight time is twice as long as yours. If you practice more, you will definitely beat No. 2."
"I'm going to go up there and have some fun later, but I won't be sparring with No. 2. The waves from behind in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and the waves in front die on the beach. Life is terrible, and I don't want to lose my reputation in this life."
"We should give way, but we can't let these young people get too proud."
"Observe and observe. If no one comes, I'll give it a try. Don't let this young man get too carried away."
"Who's next?"
The stopped simulator opened the cockpit door with a soft sound.
"Team A leader, why don't you come? This is a high-fidelity simulator. You are not afraid of getting hurt! This is really life-threatening."
"If you are afraid of death, you will not go to heaven. If you are dissatisfied, feel free to come over. This is a rare opportunity. Let's all go through it and make progress together."
The young voice of Major Wang Xuejun, the leader of Group A, code number 2, came from afar. The people of Group E and Major General Sun saw him standing in front of a huge model machine wearing a blue special anti-Dutch suit, as if he were a piece of
One blueberry on a large chocolate tile.
Aviation is the foundation of aerospace. Almost most astronauts are selected from Air Force fighter pilots. Being familiar with flying advanced fighter jets in the air is a required course, but pilots can easily skip this level, especially fighter jets.
Pilots can directly skip some related learning and training, saving valuable space flight life.
If you do not have fighter flight experience, you must study for more than three years, accumulate 2,000 hours of flight experience, and have the ability to fly in more than three weather conditions before you are eligible for formal astronaut training.
"No. 1, don't just stand there and watch. Do you want to try it? It's very interesting."
After all, it was the sharp-eyed pilot and the leader of Group A, No. 2 Wang Xuejun, who immediately noticed Lin Mo standing among the people in Group E, and shouted a challenge.
Although he is younger than Lin Mo, his tone is old-fashioned.
The candidates who were watching suddenly became much quieter, and their eyes slowly turned to Lin Mo.
"Boss, go beat him all over the place."
The die-hard boy "tabby cat" Meng Yinan waved his fist and shouted that he looked down upon the No. 2 Wang Xuejun wearing a fake green mask. He was too insidious and cunning. He took advantage of his youth and used the common reckless impulse of his peers as a cover.
, setting one irreversible trap after another for unwary opponents.
But at this time, Meng Yinan's move was undoubtedly correct.
After several provocations, Lin Mo has been forced into an unavoidable situation. It would have been easier to handle it if he was alone, but now he is the leader of Team E. If he continues to be a coward, it means that these newly added
Team members will be extremely disappointed with him and may even switch to another team on the spot.
The internal self-governing group encouraged by this training center only assesses the group leader, but never limits the group members' joining actions. Points will not be deducted for withdrawal or transfer.
If these team members really lose confidence in Lin Mo and change jobs, I'm afraid Lin Mo will end up like No. 6 Jin Hongbao.
out!
"good!"
Lin Mo locked his eyes on Wang Xuejun like a falcon and accepted this challenge.
The dignity of the dragon knight cannot be tarnished. This is a pride inherited from another world for tens of thousands of years. Even the sky knights of this world have their own uniqueness, but the spirit of flying freely in the sky and the will to fight are common.
.
Wang Xuejun immediately felt the unnatural feeling of being locked by the missile, and a radar alarm sounded in his mind.
lock on!
A strange look immediately appeared in Wang Xuejun's eyes. This No. 1 didn't seem that simple.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly reached a climax, with the mysterious No. 1 and the flamboyant No. 2, the two pilots having a fierce battle.
It is definitely a major event in the domestic aviation industry.
All the candidates cheered at once, shouted slogans of cheering, and immediately gathered around.
Next to the two giant simulators, there are several 42-inch LCD TVs for watching the game, which is obviously not enough.
Major General Sun, who was silent behind the crowd, took out his special communicator and said something. After a while, in the empty space next to the giant simulator, a huge 150-inch projection was lowered from the seven-meter-high roof.
The curtain, a piece of blue light flashed on the curtain, and then it automatically focused and displayed the clear test text. The correction was also completed by the high-brightness high-resolution projection equipment hanging from the top.
