Chapter 704: New Year's Day in the sky

Moscow.
Federal Security Agency.
A man in a gray leather jacket is sitting behind the desk, while pointing at the table with a pen in his hand, while looking at the report on the table.
At this time, there was a knock at the door outside the office.
I stopped the movement of my hand, and the man sitting behind the desk looked at the door.
"Please come in."
The door was opened, and a man with a thin face came in.
"The latest report from the Foreign Intelligence Agency, and the news from the Federal Space Agency," put the information in his hands on the table, and the man with a thin face continued, "It seems that the Chinese have indeed succeeded."
The forefinger slightly tapped on the table, and the man sitting behind the desk picked up the document and turned it up page by page.
It took about five minutes.
He dropped the information in his hand, and turned his attention to the agent standing at his desk.
"Is there only this information?"
The agent nodded solemnly and continued.
"The local army's patrols are too strict, and there are reconnaissance aircraft patrolling at high altitudes in the surrounding airspace. It's too easy to get close to them. We can only observe from a distance.
男人 The man in the gray leather jacket nodded, and didn't bother his subordinates too much.
After a moment's pause, he slowly got up from his office chair and put the information into his arms along with the previous report.
"I will report this to Mr. Vladimir. The latest news of the auspicious auspices keeps the Foreign Intelligence Service there. If there is any new discovery, report it to me immediately."
"Especially the propulsion system they use ..."
"I need to know what it is!"
Uh ...
A little Lu Zhou didn't know exactly.
Although the ground command was really confused for a while after he found that he was missing, those people who were in a panic gradually calmed down when they learned that Lu Zhou was staying on the Xiangrui safely.
After all, people are already in the sky, even if they are in a hurry, it is useless.
It's impossible for the space shuttle that has launched half way to turn around and come back, right?
Therefore, after confirming the safety of Lu Zhou, Hou Guang quickly recovered his calmness and shouldered the task of ground command.
Cruise time is 5 hours and 27 minutes.
通过 When passing through Hua Guozheng, the aerospace plane Xiangrui made contact with CTV through the ground command transit through the original plan and sent a 25-second congratulatory video on New Year's Day.
Originally this video was planned to be taken by two astronauts, but now there are more than two people on the Xiangrui. Nie Yun and Nie Yun are also embarrassed to think that Lu Zhou does not exist, and Lu Zhou naturally refused to refuse such fun Things, so the video originally scheduled to be taken by two people was changed to three people in the same frame.
In the end, the Lu Zhou standing at the C position arched his hand towards the camera. On behalf of the astronauts and the ground command staff, he congratulated the National People's Road for a happy New Year's Day and ended the entire video.
When Lu Zhou laughed and passed the video back to the ground command, North America, 13 hours behind Beijing, finally ushered in the early morning of New Year's Day.
However, last night, I didn't know how many people lost sleep because of the news suddenly reported by Columbia TV.
According to official statistics from Twitter, the rugby game is entering its final high tide in the middle of the night on December 31. However, almost one-third of North Americans are talking about the aerial plane launched from across the earth.
This is extremely rare ...
For a long time, the pride of being a major space power was written in the bones of Americans, and even became a part of culture. Not only because only Hollywood can make real science fiction movies, but also because since the Cold War, no country has ever surpassed the United States in the field of aerospace.
The past is impossible, and the future is impossible.
如今 However, the successful launch of the strangely named aerospace plane has caused this pride to fall to the ground fiercely.
Especially when people heard that the rumored Xiangrui was launched by electric propulsion!
This shock and incredibleness that comes from the bottom of my heart is even harder to express in words ...
In particular, practitioners in the aerospace field, especially engineers working at space giants such as Space-X, Blue Origin, and so on, saw the news on television and could hardly believe their eyes.
NASA's most advanced electric propulsion technology can't even throw an egg into the sky. The starry sky technology that provides lithium batteries with "technical services" turned out to use electric propulsion technology? ? ?
Is there anything more sci-fi than this?
Rather than believe this fact, they would rather believe that this is an April Fool's Day joke four months in advance ...
Apart from those engineers working in Space-X and Blue Origin, most of the headaches belong to NASA employees.
At this time, they should take the annual vacation at home comfortably, take their wives and children to Hawaii to enjoy the warm sunshine, but at this moment they are all pulled from the holiday because of the sky plane across the Pacific come out.
That's all it takes. Starting from last night, the water outside the NASA headquarters building has been blocked by broadcasters of major media. It didn't disperse until the next morning, so many people came to work. They were blocked at the door, and it took a lot of effort to ask the reporter who saw the pin and handed the microphone into the building.
In order to dismiss these annoying journalists, NASA had to hold a press conference as a last resort, invited all the reporters present to the reception hall in the building, and dumped this daunting task to the intern who had just completed the induction training. Raw.
In an unprepared riot, the press conference barely started.
Because there were so many reporters present, the order at the scene was extremely chaotic.
没有 There was no time for the speaker to speak. The reporters in the lecture hall swarmed up and handed out the recording pen and microphone in their hands.
"Here is a reporter from Columbia Television. I would like to ask you, is it true that the space shuttle Xiangrui launches the latest electric propulsion system?"
"... Does the successful launch of Xiangrui mean that China has caught up with us in the field of aerospace?"
"... I want to know where the 40 billion yuan is spent every year!"
"We did receive a briefing on the launch of a new space shuttle by the Chinese side, but they did not specify in detail what kind of launch technology they used," a NASA spokesperson turned the ballpoint pen in his hand, He said quickly, "We will keep a close eye on the further development of the matter, and there is nothing to say now."
"But what I want to say is that a successful launch does not mean that it was a successful launch. From the launch of the spacecraft, to the orbital operation, and finally to the return to the atmosphere ... only this series of operations can be counted as complete. It was a successful manned space flight. "
When this sentence came out, it immediately caused a small-scale commotion on the scene.
The New York Times reporter keenly heard what the spokesman had said, immediately handed out the microphone, and asked sharply, "Do you mean that the Xiangrui, which uses the latest electric propulsion technology, may fail during the return to the atmosphere? Is it NASA's point of view? "
"I didn't say this ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The spokesman opened his mouth, but did not say anything negative, but expressed his views in an ambiguous and ambiguous way," Xiangrui Whether the USS uses an electric propulsion power system has yet to be confirmed. Similarly, whether this country's launch can be called a successful launch depends on whether they can make the astronauts come back safely. "
When I heard this sentence, the eyes of the New York Times reporter suddenly turned on.
I am not just a reporter for The New York Times, but also other reporters.
A loud noise spread out at the scene, and the atmosphere was suddenly pushed to Gao Feng.
Big news!
NASA predicts that the auspicious auspicious design will be flawed, or will it crash into the atmosphere? !!
He stood on the stage, emphasizing that the quiet spokesman was sweating and began to feel a little overwhelmed.
Sure enough, the intern is still too young.
Although he has not leaked the words, it still gives reporters the opportunity to interpret from other ideas.
However, even if the conference scene has been chaotic, NASA has not been concerned about the margin at the moment. Compared to how the outside media interpret this matter, they obviously care more about the situation of Xiangrui in the sky. How's it going……
