Vol 2 Chapter 1123: The multiple-track deceleration technique has succeeded!

No matter how they asked about other things, Jiang Tzuyu and the others smiled and refused to introduce them, just let them watch their landing live broadcast.
It’s meaningless to reveal it in advance. By that time, there will be more people watching their landing live broadcast than they are now. If this scene destined to be recorded in the annals of history, if everything is exposed in advance, it will make people look forward to it. Yes, the Propaganda Department of Infinite Gravity Group will not let Jiang Ziyu spoil them in advance!
The live broadcast of this period is over here. Although Infinite Gravity Group will not close the live broadcast room until the end of the mission to Mars, but the 8 astronauts do not have the leisure time to keep blowing water with netizens, they want The work done is not a lot at all.
It is not a simple task to comprehensively inspect the landing section, and it is not a one-time task. Take the simplest example.
When going for regular injections or slings, the nurses in the hospital have to follow a very strict process. In professional terms, they have to do three checks.
Three checks and eight pairs are medical professional terms. Three checks refer to the time and post-preparation check, dispensation, injection, pre-treatment check, dispensation, injection, post-treatment check, and eight pairs refer to name and bed number , Drug name, dosage, concentration, time, usage, drug validity period.
You see, even the nurse sister has to go through such strict inspection procedures when giving injections to a person. It is conceivable that these landing cabins composed of hundreds of thousands of parts and components want to ensure that these astronauts can land 100% safely. Mars, then they have to check more carefully!
This is in a place nearly 100 million kilometers away from the earth. Everything can only be done by themselves, and no subtle problems can be solved. So when they start working, they really don’t have the time to do live broadcasts, because This kind of inspection is not finished after one pass.
In the next two days, more and more people paid attention to Infinite Gravity Group’s live broadcast on Mars, and the media have also opened a broadcast mode. Originally, this kind of broadcast is chargeable from the perspective of private companies. Yes, but obviously Infinite Gravity Group is not an ordinary company, and they are not short of this money.
Even the media of the United States and other countries, as long as they are not habitually hacking their company, they can all get a free broadcast license. For Infinite Gravity Group, the impact and significance of this landing on Mars is greater than that of receiving it. The cost of broadcasting is much more important.
In the eyes of the world’s attention, the space station assembly of the "Horse Guardian" space station has successfully decelerated the speed of the space station to a low level on the afternoon of January 5 after more than 60 hours of non-stop deceleration of 18 sets of high-thrust ion power stations. speed.
Because only when the speed is reduced to a certain level, can it be guaranteed that it can smoothly enter the large elliptical orbit around Mars, and the stage when this space station enters the orbit around Mars is called "orbit capture."
Of course, even after such a long deceleration, the speed of the space station assembly is still nearly 9 kilometers per second. It is obviously impossible to enter the orbit of Mars at this speed.
It is not technically impossible, but it is not safe to do so. There is no way to ensure the safety of the astronauts. If this is a small unmanned landing probe, at this time, just turn on the liquid fuel engine to slow down. Okay.
However, even if the space station combination of the'Hermiting Guardian' space station consumes a lot of weight during this long voyage, it still weighs more than 9,000 tons, and there is a huge solar sail behind its buttocks, which is so heavy. Of course its inertia is greater.
If you force a high-speed deceleration, it is prone to problems, so at this moment the whole world has witnessed its deceleration process through the cameras on the space station.
Compared with the earth, Mars is only a small thing, with a mass of only 10.7% of the earth, and a very small range of gravitational influence. This requires that the space station assembly must accurately cut into orbit around Mars. At the same time, it must also have a strong ability to change orbit. Only in this way can the requirement of changing the track be completed.
Therefore, with the help of the orbital change engine, the space station assembly cut through the gravitational orbit of Mars three times with frightening operations, using its gravitational force to successfully reduce the speed from nearly 9 kilometers per second to about 4 kilometers per second. This successfully verified the effectiveness of this technology with practical actions!
Because the speed of the space station assembly is reduced to this speed with the help of this multiple-orbit deceleration technology, the space station assembly can take the most critical step while ensuring the safety of astronauts.
When the space station assembly recirculates back to 300 kilometers from the surface of Mars with the help of the orbital change engine, its flight speed has been reduced to about 3 kilometers per second under the continuous operation of the six liquid fuel engines.
After three high-speed approaches to Mars, the confidence of the eight astronauts on the space station complex was also sufficient. Therefore, at this final critical moment, they completed all the formal orbit operations with super high working conditions.
Finally, with the help of all engines, the speed of the entire space station slowed to 2 kilometers per second. At this speed, the space station assembly was successfully captured by Mars' gravity and entered a 35-hour elliptical orbit around Mars.
Waiting for the commander Zhang Chuanguo to solemnly report through the live camera: "The Space Station Combination of the Enchanted Guard successfully entered orbit around Mars!" From now on ~EbookFREE.me~ everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but swell. Here comes the palm!
Because this step is even more important than the next landing module landing on Mars. After all, if the space station assembly can't even enter the Martian orbit, then there is no need to mention the following things.
At this point, everyone in the control center on the Earth side also breathed a sigh of relief. Although there are still many steps to be completed, the completion of the space station's official entry into Mars orbit represents the company's efforts for several years. , The Mars colonization plan that cost more than 250 billion RMB is not a failure!
Because at this point, even if the subsequent mission to Mars fails, the space station's work on Mars orbit can still be carried out, and related scientific experiments can still be done on the space station, but the manned landing to Mars has not been completed.
And even if the landing fails, it’s not a big deal, because the safety of the astronauts can be guaranteed, and relevant data on why they failed can also be collected to provide data support for subsequent missions.
