Zhang Hao put his arms around Zhou Xueyao's thin shoulders and looked through the open window at the transmitting tower in the distance.
At this time, the transmitting tower was brightly lit. Not only the electric lights, but also the light of magic.
The launch tower needs to be comprehensively inspected and every corner cleaned. The launch tower is a high-precision equipment, and there is no room for sloppiness. Especially this time, Zhang Hao has to launch it himself.
There are also power system staff who are checking every line. Before the lines were switched urgently, no one could guarantee whether there was any problem with the lines.
There are also computer personnel who are sifting through every line of code and checking every data.
In the words of Zhang Xinhan: Any accident is not caused by a single factor; in fact, if there are only one or two problems during the launch of the spacecraft, it will not have a big impact. Many accidents are actually caused by a series of mistakes.
Take this disaster as an example. If everyone had checked the flying bird in advance, if the power had been cut off as soon as possible after the impact, if the automatic correction system of the spacecraft had responded faster... well, there are no ifs in reality, but lessons need to be learned!
It was already dark, but all the staff were busy without touching the ground. Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh: The combination of practitioners and technology has increased the efficiency of scientific research work by more than three times.
Ordinary scientific researchers can effectively work up to six hours a day, which is good. But cultivators can maintain 24 hours a day and are extremely efficient. If they work for a long time, 22 hours a day will be enough, and the rest will be enough.
Go and rest for the next two hours.
Zhou Xueyao lay in Zhang Hao's arms for a while, then stood up and said softly: "No matter what choice you make, I will always support you."
Zhang Hao looked into Zhou Xueyao's eyes, and a warm smile gradually bloomed at the corner of his mouth.
Then Zhang Hao raised his head and continued to look at the busy scene in the distance.
Zhang Hao knows very well that the successive outbreaks have made the whole world tense; ever since the threat of the Red River Civilization broke out, the whole world has been living in tension. At this time, if an accident occurs during the launch of the spacecraft, if it is not handled properly, it will cause
Some unforeseen consequences.
If I dare not say too much, it will at least make everyone feel that their hopes have been frustrated - and this is something Zhang Hao cannot accept.
Hope is the greatest motivation.
Although Chicken Soup for the Soul always says: It’s not because you see hope that you struggle; it’s because you struggle that you see hope;
But the reality is that only a few can really persevere until they see hope; if something happens again in this process, it may trigger a chain reaction.
At this time, someone needs to stand up and tell everyone, tell the world: it was just an accident, our technology is still excellent, and hope is within reach.
And among those with such ability and mainstay influence, Zhang Hao is second to none in the world.
As the president of the most powerful group in the world, as the de facto controller of the space center, and as the most influential figure in the world, only Zhang Hao can eliminate all influence by standing up.
Not only can it eliminate the impact, but it can also turn crises into benefits: Look, no matter what kind of crisis, it can't affect our determination!
It was precisely because of this that the newspaper the next morning published the news that Zhang Hao was going to land on the moon.
Yes, this matter was kept secret before, and Zhang Xinhan only gave a sticky excuse when faced with so many people's inquiries. But at this time, "Ocean Daily" completely disclosed the matter!
Although the No. 3 spacecraft had an accident, the space center will carry out the 16th launch 72 hours after the problem with the No. 3 spacecraft.
After the disaster, Zhang Hao resolutely decided to keep the original plan unchanged and even made the originally confidential mission public.
In fact, the pressure faced by the space center is unimaginable, including self-blame, technical pressure, and suspicion from all over the world and within the Ocean Group.
Therefore, although Zhang Hao made a strong decision to maintain the original plan at this time, which seemed to be a huge pressure, it was actually the greatest support and absolute trust.
The busy space center personnel do not need to think about too much pressure. What they have to do now is to handle the matters at hand and send Zhang Hao safely into space.
As long as the next launch is successful, all pressure will be relieved; the problems of this launch will also be downgraded to ordinary safety accidents.
In fact, in the process of scientific and technological development, Dayang Group has encountered too many accidents and failures. However, the combined impact of all past failures and accidents is not as great as a single spacecraft launch.
In the past, even if a plane hit the ground, a master of Dharma would never die.
But this time the spacecraft was launched, a Dharma master who was almost at the top of the world was scorched in the blink of an eye, leaving only half of his charred head.
In such a state, Zhang Hao had to take the spacecraft into space in person, and the impact would be immeasurable. At this time, the whole world was no longer discussing the issue of the 15th launch, but the upcoming 16th launch.
Even laymen know that it is too risky. After the accident, continuing to launch without doing much inspection is a joke on life.
However, no one can reverse Zhang Hao's decision!
In this atmosphere, on the evening of March 23, when the sunset dyed the sky and the earth red, Zhang Hao and Dugu Junjie, according to the staff's arrangements, came to the top of the transmitting tower, and then got into the small cockpit.
There are a total of seven passengers for this lunar exploration; Zhang Hao and Dugu Junjie are the first ones to ascend to the sky... ahem, lift off; the remaining five people will gradually take the spacecraft into the space base.
In fact, according to the original launch sequence, Zhang Hao and Dugu Junjie would be the last ones to launch, which would be the 19th launch or even later. However, the changes in the situation forced Zhang Hao to make a strong change.
When the cabin door is closed, only a faint light comes on inside the cabin.
In order to eliminate as much interference as possible, the lighting in the cabin was almost reduced to a minimum.
At this time, Zhang Hao finally spoke, "I'm a little nervous. How did you feel the last time you entered space?"
Although Zhang Hao has entered the Dongxu realm, he has never entered space. Instead, it was only after Dugu Junjie and others entered space that they broke through the Dongxu stage.
Dugu Junjie shrugged: "It feels more exciting than an airplane. But it's nothing."
A countdown sound came from the radio equipment, counting down to 120 seconds. This was also the final check.
In fact, the spacecraft has adopted remote computer control and semi-automatic control at this time. Zhang Hao and Dugu Junjie hardly have to do anything. Of course, they cannot do nothing at all, such as... fasten their seat belts.
During the launch of the spacecraft, the center of gravity of the personnel has been adjusted; therefore, the personnel must remain still during the launch process. The technology is still not perfect at the moment, so the requirements for passengers can only be stricter. Therefore, during the launch process, passengers must keep themselves
Securely fastened to the chair.
The countdown ended quickly. In the next second, Zhang Hao felt like he was kicked by a ball and jumped out. This power was so powerful that with his weak cultivation, he even felt
There was heavy pressure.
Zhang Hao estimated that this huge acceleration was enough to break the spine of Nascent Soul.
During the step of ejecting the spacecraft through high-temperature and high-pressure air, the average acceleration is as high as 25 times the gravity of the ground - this number, in the eyes of practitioners, is not an exaggeration.
But when the spacecraft starts ejecting from a standstill, its acceleration is as high as 55 times, and then it accelerates and drops rapidly; by the time the spacecraft approaches the exit of the launch tower, the acceleration has dropped to twice the gravity.
This 55 times gravity exploded instantly without any preparation, rather than gradually increasing. Therefore, even a Nascent Soul master would be in danger of sitting in such a spacecraft.
This launch tower is actually a high-temperature and high-pressure air cannon.
And for ballistic stability, the spacecraft rotates slightly. Because it is launched from the northern hemisphere, the rotation direction of the spacecraft is counterclockwise.
After the air was ejected, the laser exploded, pushing the spacecraft into space.
In the eyes of outsiders, the laser is just a 25-meter-diameter beam; in fact, there are 6 core beams. The intensity of the beam can be adjusted to slightly ensure the balance of the spacecraft. However, this change in light generally does not exceed
0.5%.
After the spacecraft was irradiated by laser, Zhang Hao clearly felt a crazy energy rolling behind him. The soul kept sending dangerous auras.
Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel nervous at this time, his true energy was surging throughout his body, and his supernatural powers were on the verge of exploding. Once in danger, he would try to escape as soon as possible.
But at this time, Dugu Junjie suddenly spoke and asked a question, "Mr. Zhang, I have a question. According to the information we got from the records of Xuanhuang civilization, even for Xuanhuang civilization, it is extremely difficult to go from Dharma to Dongxu.
A single step is enough to make a breakthrough.
But in our Ocean Group, most of the masters who have entered the late stage of the Dharma phase of space and are at the top of their game have made breakthroughs.
This... seems a bit incomprehensible. I don’t think we are better than the Xuanhuang civilization at the moment."
Zhang Hao remained motionless and without turning his head, he just spoke like this: "I'm actually thinking about the question you mentioned. There are three reasons that come to mind.
The first is science and technology. The scientific concept of development allows us to have a clear purpose and reach the goal!
From the beginning, we took a completely different path of scientific development from that of the Xuanhuang Civilization. After we laid the foundation and developed our own style, we began to come into contact with the information of the Xuanhuang Civilization.
In this state, we are equivalent to walking on two legs. This is the relationship between comprehensive development and one-sided development.
We can analyze practice from all aspects, including practice, physics, humanities, spirituality, etc. We know how to practice, rather than closing our eyes for so-called enlightenment. In fact, enlightenment is blind.
The second point should be the often said power of history, natural selection and natural carving.
After so many years, the many ways of practice left by Xuanhuang Civilization have risen and fallen in the long river of history, accepting the erosion of time. What is left behind in the end may not be the best, but it is precisely the most suitable for us!
At the beginning, the practice method of Xuanhuang Civilization may have had too many unfamiliar aspects and traces. However, in the past few years after the disaster, everyone has actually calmed down, pondered little by little, and repaired many unknown problems in the practice.
.
Perception is blind, but it is more able to follow the traces of life.
Over hundreds of thousands of years, hundreds of millions of practitioners have thought and experimented one after another, creating today's Kung Fu. Every Kung Fu, every spell, every elixir, etc. is the crystallization of wisdom.
The current exercises are like pebbles washed out by nature. They may still not be perfect, but they are almost perfect. Perhaps an ordinary exercise has hundreds of thousands of years of evolutionary history behind it, and there are countless
Thousands of practitioners have worked hard for it.
The third point is a guess. Maybe our physique has changed. Looking back now, the reason why Xuanhuang Civilization wanted to transform and live on Tianyuan Planet may have some plan. Maybe they didn’t choose this place.
Randomly selected!
Of course, these are just speculations, and the specifics need to be verified. Don’t take these as truth. If it really gets spread, I won’t admit that I said it!”
At the end of the sentence, Zhang Hao had a faint smile on his face, as if he had forgotten the danger of launching the spacecraft.
After hearing this, Dugu Junjie nodded thoughtfully: "Although it is just a speculation, it does sound very reasonable. I have also thought about it, but after all, it is not as good as Mr. Zhang~"
