Vol 5 Chapter 2479: Hunting Weather Satellites (End)

~EbookFREE.me~ Following the command, in the screen, a white object was launched from a tube-shaped launcher on the front side of the satellite. This object dragged out of the tube, its shape getting bigger and bigger, and it quickly opened up to become a giant net with a diameter of 50 meters.
The whole web is unfolded in space. It is somewhat like a spider web, but it is very different from a spider web. Behind the whole web, there are some umbilical cord webs. The outer side of the web gradually decreases towards the inner side. The whole structure is a bit like It is the parachute line system of the parachute, but each line is so thin that it looks more like fishing line than rope.
The completely unfolded net quickly sprinkled the entire weather satellite, covering, winding, and bonding the entire weather satellite together. The entire satellite seemed to be entangled in layers of spider webs, like a zongzi.
This made many people on the scene reminisce about the scene of the Pansi Cave in Journey to the West. Back then, Tang Seng and Zhu Bajie were wrapped in spider webs by spider spirits.
it is good!
clap clap clap...
A burst of warm applause and cheers broke out at the scene, celebrating the successful capture of the satellite.
Start collecting!
Yes!
As the command was issued, the cables floating in space began to tighten.
The engines ignited and began to de-orbit.
Yes!
Can such a thin paracord drag this multi-ton satellite? Rocky asked.
Yu Chengwu responded with a smile: "Of course there is no problem. This single cable can drag an object weighing 500 kilograms, and there are more than 50 cables in total, which are enough to drag this satellite."
Although space is a state of weightlessness, the satellite itself has weight. If you want to drag this object, you must also have a rope that can withstand the gravity of the object. That's why Luo Kai asked this question, and Yu Chengwu nodded in satisfaction with his answer.
As the engine on the Huanwei-1 satellite ignited, the cable for catching the net quickly tightened, and the reversible and winding satellite also stopped winding, and began to be dragged closer and closer by the cable. At a position where the cable would be about ten meters away from the satellite, it stopped, and the Huanwei-1 began to drag the defunct weather satellite into orbit.
Seeing this, the crowd burst into applause again. Although it has not been officially announced yet, there is basically no need to announce this result. Everyone knows that this satellite capture experiment has been a complete success.
Luo Kai clapped his hands and asked Yu Chengwu, "Has this weather satellite been dragging on like this?"
Yu Chengwu shook his head with a smile, and then explained to everyone: "No, it's too troublesome to just drag it like this. We will drag the satellite to change orbit, then accelerate, and disconnect the cable at a suitable angle. In this way, the satellite will It can accelerate towards the earth along the orbit we set, and finally burn up in the atmosphere.
On the one hand, this is also to get rid of the burden and burden, so that Sanwei-1 can go into battle lightly in the subsequent experiments, so as not to affect the normal development of subsequent experiments.
On the other hand, it is also to test the orbit change and release performance of Sanwei-1. We can't drag this defunct satellite into the atmosphere. We must plan its orbit and let it crash in the predetermined area, preferably in the satellite graveyard in the South Pacific.
This is also to ensure that after these satellites fall into the atmosphere, some things that have not been burned by the atmosphere will not fall down and people or other objects on the ground. Although this probability is very small, and there is no such unlucky case of human beings being hit, we can't take this risk and let the people fall into such a panic.
Therefore, Sanwei-1 will automatically calculate the re-entry orbits of these space debris, so that their re-entry locations should avoid road sections as much as possible, and then our Sanwei-1 will adjust the orbit to carry out the next mission. "
Hearing Yu Chengwu's introduction, Luo Kai, Wan Hongfei and other experts present all nodded in praise. Indeed, this is one of the factors that must be considered. We must know that the controversy and panic caused by space junk falling into the atmosphere has also become a topic of concern to many international and public people. Some people with ulterior motives even use this to attack our growing space industry.
By doing this, Wu Hao and the others blocked the tongues of these people, leaving them speechless. And this kind of treatment is indeed very correct, which can prevent these wreckage and debris from harming and affecting the ground to the greatest extent.
"When will this satellite be released into the atmosphere?" Wan Hongfei asked.
This needs to be calculated, and it will be around three or four o'clock tonight. If it is fast, this satellite can re-enter the atmosphere and burn up tomorrow morning.
Hearing Yu Chengwu's words, Wan Hongfei nodded, and then said to Wu Hao, "I'll stay here tonight, it's okay."
Of course there is no problem, but there is still some time before re-entry into the atmosphere, I suggest you go to the lounge to rest for a while, and come back when the time comes.
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Wan Hongfei waved his hands and said, "It's not that particular. We often stay up late, and we're used to it."
Hearing Wan Hongfei's words, Luo Kai also nodded and said to Wu Hao: "Okay, it seems that I will spend the night here too. You don't need to worry about us, you should go back, it's good here. "
Hearing Luo Kai's words, Wu Hao nodded. He knew that Luo Kai had come with Wan Hongfei this time, and since Wan Hongfei didn't leave, he couldn't leave either. But as Luo Kai said, he has nothing to do here, and it doesn't make much sense for him to stay here any longer, so he can just leave.
"That's fine, then I'll go back."
Wu Hao responded ~EbookFREE.me~ and then said to Yu Chengwu: "Hi everyone."
Don't worry, leave it to me. Yu Chengwu responded with a smile.
Wu Hao nodded, then thought for a while, and then said to Yu Chengwu: "Although this experiment is said to be conducted in secret, it still cannot be hidden from those who are interested. Rather than being exposed by the other party and making a fuss, it is better for us to take the initiative to announce it. This can also show that we are open-minded.
In this way, after the satellite re-enters the atmosphere and burns up tomorrow, you will immediately arrange for someone to issue an announcement. "
"Aren't there these reporters here, do we still need to publish it ourselves?" Yu Chengwu was a little puzzled.
Wu Hao glanced at the few reporters over there, then shook his head with a smile and said: "They are them, we are us. Remember, keep it brief and organize the words as much as possible. Our experiment this time is to reduce space Garbage, protect the environment, protect the safety of human life on earth, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Yu Chengwu replied with a smile. How could he not understand what Wu Hao said? They said this in advance, and it would be difficult for those who want to find fault.
