Vol 2 Chapter 373: , Fireflies in the night sky

At Mount Fuji Space Base, more than 100 carefully selected astronauts are waving goodbye to the camera. They are about to board the Huiye spacecraft and go to the asteroid mining asteroid.
Because the traditional rocket thrust technology is used, can this technology withstand the test, and everyone has no confidence in it, so this mining asteroid team is also very large, with 120 people, unlike the Qinglong spacecraft, a The huge spaceship can be operated by only 22 people.
The 120 people, including astronauts, engineers, scientists, astronomers, doctors, chefs, etc., this time are not just for mining asteroids, but also carrying out scientific research tasks.
After all, going to an asteroid is not easy. Collecting information about the asteroid belt and studying the origin and evolution of the solar system are all things that scientists have always wanted to do.
"Pleases, please!"
When he set off, Masao Nakamura bowed deeply to the crowd.
"Hi ~"
Everyone made a sound, put on aerospace helmets one by one, and began to board the spacecraft Huiye very orderly.
The Japanese broadcast live this time. Such a big event is definitely a good opportunity to inspire the self-confidence of the people. Naturally, you will not miss it. You must capitalize on the feature. The 120 who went to the asteroid belt are said to be heroes and warrior.
"Why didn't you set off and what are you waiting for?"
Inside the night spacecraft, James looked very impatient.
"Perhaps some ceremony is under way, and the time is about to start."
"But this Japanese spacecraft is really too embarrassing to design. I've been struggling several times."
Truss said with a smile.
James and Truss are both Uncle Sam. This time, they also brought a 10-member scientific team into the spacecraft Huiye in advance. Of course, nominally, they were invited by Japan ’s space agency to do the work. And, they have never made a public announcement. Nationals in Japan have no idea that there are 10 Uncle Sam on the spacecraft Yuya.
Traveling to the asteroid belt is also something that Uncle Sam has been yearning for. This time, I was able to take a Japanese spacecraft to pass by. I knew about the asteroid belt in advance and understood the entire long process in advance. Planets play a very important role.
For this matter, Uncle Sam negotiated with the Japanese for a long time. At the beginning, the Japanese would not agree anyway, joking, and wanted to send someone to their own spacecraft. , How can there be such a good thing in the world.
However, soon Uncle Sam touched the Japanese's head and pulled the dog chain in his hand, and the Japanese had to helplessly agree. There was no way. Who called Uncle Sam a Japanese father, in his own There is also Uncle Sam's military base on the site.
So James, Truss, etc. boarded the Teruya spacecraft in advance, and they will soon go to the asteroid belt with these Japanese.
Soon after, the Japanese entered all of the Huiye spacecraft one after another, and the doors of the Huiye spacecraft also began to be closed.
"Hui Ye requested departure!"
In the cockpit of the spacecraft Yuya, the captain of the spacecraft Yuya Ota, and the deputy captain Saburo Nishizawa stood together, and made a loud application to Masao Nakamura for departure.
"set off!"
Nakamura and his assistant confirmed it and nodded.
Soon, the Huiye spacecraft began to slowly escape from Mount Fuji Space City. On the huge spacecraft, bright tail flames spewed out, forming long tail flames.
"Speed ​​of 20 kilometers per second!"
"Continuous acceleration!"
In the cockpit, Taita's broad eyes suggested that his look was cold and cold, just like the ancient warrior who was generous and righteous.
Eight heavy-duty launch vehicles, with full power and terrible chemical reactions, produced a powerful thrust, and the speed of the Huiye spacecraft began to soar.
At the same time, the powerful thrust of 8 carrier rockets and the huge force applied to the spaceship made the spaceship constantly tremble and tremble violently, so that everyone on the spacecraft was intimidated, for fear that the spacecraft would be subject to such terrible Strength shreds.
"Shiit ~ I knew this way I shouldn't have come, the ghost knew if the Japanese spacecraft could hold up."
James felt a huge jitter and a huge roar of the rocket. The whole person felt as if he had entered the end of the century, and he couldn't help regretting it.
"It's too bad, my poor child, and my beautiful wife. If I die in space, I don't know if it will be cheaper."
Truss was also the same at this time. He scolded and thought a lot, a lot in his mind.
In contrast, the Japanese on the Huiye spacecraft seemed a lot calmer, all silent, and endured in silence, waiting.
The spacecraft Huiye is like a firefly, dragging a bright and dazzling light and flying in the dark void, getting farther and farther away from the earth.
"At a speed of 30 kilometers per second, the first batch of fuel has been consumed."
"Stop the engine and add fuel."
With the order of Taida Guangyi, all eight heavy-duty carrier rockets were closed, the jitter of the spacecraft disappeared, and the horrible noises disappeared suddenly. Everyone was relieved and began to get busy.
Because the rocket burns too fast and the fuel is consumed quickly, the acceleration phase must be divided into several phases to accelerate. There is no way to accelerate to a predetermined speed like the Qinglong spacecraft.
The Japanese team was very efficient. Just a few hours later, the eight carrier rockets were refilled with fuel, and soon they spewed out a long white flame, and the speed began to soar.
"Speed ​​of 50 kilometers per second ~ reach the predetermined speed!"
"Turn off the engine and overhaul the engine!"
A few days later, after these days of continuous acceleration, the speed of the Huiye spacecraft finally reached the predetermined speed, which was also carefully calculated by scientists.
If you continue to accelerate, you will consume more fuel, but the effect of acceleration is not obvious, and it is not cost-effective. If the speed is too low, the journey to the asteroid belt will be very long, which will delay too long. Just right.
Relying on inertia to fly in the void, the entire spacecraft became quiet. The rocket maintenance work lasted for several days, and the nozzles of 8 carrier rockets were replaced. Under the acceleration of these days, After being exposed to high temperature for a long time, this spout has been melted and deformed.
There are no other problems with the rocket, the fuel has been filled, and the next day will become very quiet and leisurely, waiting for the deceleration phase when it is about to reach the asteroid.
"Baga, these hooligans."
"Tell them to be honest, otherwise I would just throw them into space and make them space junk."
Ten days later, Taitian Guangyi could not help but gave an order to his deputy in anger. It turned out that Uncle Sam was playing with a female member on the spaceship. Uncle Sam ’s urine was like this. Uncle Sam ’s military bases were stationed around the world. Somewhere, such things don't know how much happened.
The Japanese did not eat less in this regard, and various things around the military base came to an endless stream, but every time, the Japanese were only able to break their teeth and swallow them in the stomach, because they did not dispose of Uncle Sam ’s soldiers at all that power.
Unexpectedly, on the spacecraft Huiye, these uncles were not honest, they were full and they had nothing to do, and they even played with the female members on the spacecraft.
"The spacecraft is almost flying past Mars orbit, and in about ten days or so, we can almost reach the asteroid belt."
After dealing with the annoying things, Ota broad also focused his attention on this mission ~ EbookFREE.me ~ because the distance between the spacecraft and the earth is getting longer and longer because of the distance from the earth .
They do n’t have quantum communication technology and no way to communicate in real time, so as a captain, Ota ’s broad responsibilities are very great, of course, they are also very powerful. Everything on the spacecraft is up to him and he decides.
"I hope we have good luck. As soon as we enter the asteroid belt, we can meet the appropriate asteroids. We have not much fuel left. Except for the fuel that goes back to accelerate, we have very little fuel available."
The deputy Saburo Nishizawa also nodded. Everyone is actually more annoyed because the spaceship cannot communicate with the earth in real time. In addition, in the design of the spacecraft, a large part of the space is used to store fuel, and the space for controllable activities is comparative. small.
Being in such a coercive, narrow and sealed environment for a long time, people's negative emotions will be stimulated, they will become irritable, and their temper will become bigger and bigger.
In addition, the spacecraft is now in the process of inertial flight. Everyone has nothing to do. Every day, except for fitness, it is to eat and sleep. The Japanese still live. These uncles Sam can't stand each one.
"James, I'm going crazy. When is the end of such a day, this mission, Japanese monkey, this spaceship, why is it so small."
In the small room of James and Truss, Truss was holding his hair a little madly. He lived in such an environment for more than ten days, and he almost collapsed.
The design of this Japanese spacecraft is very delicate, every detail is to the end, but these designs are designed according to the Japanese's own living habits. Uncle Sam lives in it, and it ’s fine in a short time. Can't stand it at all.
