Chapter 1352: Just do what you say! (Thirty-three)

As the schedule on the ascension plan became more and more urgent, the atmosphere of the entire launch center also became a layer of tension and busyness.
But nervousness returned, and no one was worried about the prospects of the launch plan.
As early as two weeks ago, a number of national ministerial-level units such as the Ministry of National Affairs, the China National Space Administration, and the Science and Technology Administration established a command center at this space launch center, and Academician Lu personally served as chief designer To organize and direct the implementation of this launch plan!
Directed by Academician Lu!
When the news was first announced, all participants in the ascension program were invigorated and morale reached its peak!
For the people of China Aerospace, that person's name is no longer just a name.
It's like a symbol.
From the moment it was written on the title page of the plan, all the problems seemed to be no longer difficult, and all difficulties became simple.
Time passed day by day, and soon arrived on the day of departure.
A majestic aerial plane slowly pulled out of the hangar under the traction of an engineering vehicle and stopped on the runway outside the command center of the launch center. The ground crew and forklift ran back and forth around the sky plane, doing a final check for the upcoming takeoff of the Xiaguang.
In half an hour, the first components of the Xufu colony ship will take off from here, sent by Xiaguang to synchronous orbit, and then taken over by the "Qiaoqiao" waiting there, to the space port of Yuegong space station.
When all the components have been launched, the colonists waiting on the ground will embark on the last wave of flights to board the Moon Palace and from there to Mars, tens of millions of kilometers away!
The preparations are finally ready.
The ground crew in front of the aerospace plane quickly spread out around under the instructions of the tower broadcast.
The signal lights on the runway lighted for the second time, sketching a straight track.
"The hatch is closed!"
"The fusion engine runs successfully!"
"Preheating of the plasma heating chamber is complete!"
"Ready to launch!"
"ignition!"
There is no countdown, only a clean "ignition".
When launching became the norm, ignition was no longer considered a ritualistic thing.
Just as the pilots of civil airliners do not count down for their takeoffs, astronauts who have long been accustomed to travelling to and from the air, have long stopped counting for their takeoffs.
With that order, the pilot sitting in the cockpit also pressed the switch that released the plasma heated by the engine.
Tens of millions of degrees of plasma were released from the engine's nozzles under the envelop of a magnetic field. The hot temperature seemed to ignite the air and distort the space and time around.
Driven by this huge force, the silver-colored giant bird began to slide forward, and finally broke away from the runway that bound it, and ran to the clear sky overhead.
Watching the blue and orange-red intersecting arcs draw a long trajectory in the air, watching it disappear at the end of the cloud, Director Chang Hezhi standing in the command tower, the thoughts in his heart could not help but follow it Far.
Since the day at the Aerospace Assembly Center, as Academician Lu visited the colony module of the Ascension Plan, his mood has not been able to calm down.
Compared to Director Li and Yuan Huanmin, the elderly who have participated in the Hua Guo space program since the moon landing project, he is a newcomer who has only recently been commissioned by the space agency to join the fire program.
Prior to this, although he had always heard Academician Lu's name, he only saw it in the overwhelming news and heard it in the excitement of colleagues.
What he heard at the aerospace assembly center that day almost contracted his shock throughout the year. Whether it is the factory equipped with the colony cabin or the colony cabin itself, all the imagination about technology, space, and the future are perfectly displayed in the world that is only thousands of square meters.
This is not the same reason as most astronauts are full of confidence.
If they are confident because of Lu Zhou's name, then he is because of the amazing technology itself. With such sophisticated equipment, he could hardly imagine the reason for failure.
Not to mention Mars.
Even in a more distant world, I'm afraid it's not a problem ...
Just as his thoughts were brought to the distant starry sky by the disappearing "Xiaguang", a uniformed staff member walked to him beside the door.
"Chairman."
Withdrawing his eyes from the window of the command tower, Chang Hezhi looked at the staff member standing next to him, and set his mind to speak.
"whats the matter?"
"Academician Lu has something to look for you."
Academician Lu?
An unexpected expression appeared on his face. Although he was curious about Lu Zhou who had met him in the morning, he had nothing to find for himself, but Chang Hezhi didn't think much.
The organization sends it here to cooperate with Academician Lu's work. If Academician Lu needs anything, it will naturally be his first consideration.
So he immediately said.
"Take me there."
"Yes."
The staff member nodded and turned to lead the way.
Following the staff's steps, Chang Hezhi quickly moved from the command tower to the conference room on the first floor of the main building of the launch center. In this slightly empty conference room, he saw the land boat sitting at the conference table, thinking about a document.
Obviously, he didn't notice his arrival.
In order to show that he had come, Chang He Zhiqing cleared his throat and said, breaking the silence.
"Academician Lu, I heard you have something to find me?"
He noticed the sound coming from the door, and Lu Zhou looked away from the documents in his hand, looked up at Director Chang Hezhi who walked into the conference room, stood up with a smile, and made a gesture.
"You here? Please sit down."
Chang Hezhi was not polite, opened his chair and sat down.
Sit back to the chair again, Lu Zhou temporarily put the documents in his hand aside, looked at the director Chang sitting opposite, and said in a serious voice.
"I have something to discuss with you about the launch plan at the end of the month."
Hearing this sentence, the expression on the face of Director Chang Hezhi suddenly became serious, and he sat upright and said.
"Please tell me!"
Lu Zhou nodded, and without going round, he went straight into the subject.
"I intend to change the number of people in the first manned ascension plan from three to five."
The meeting room was quiet for a while.
"Five or five?" I didn't expect Lu Zhou would talk about this problem. Director Chang Hezhi froze for a while and didn't respond. "Why five?"
Why are five ...
Should this be explained?
Lu Zhou simply did not explain this problem that could not be explained at all, and said concisely.
"Because it is needed."
"Three people are far from enough. For the work arrangements of these five people, I have made detailed arrangements. No one is redundant!"
I didn't doubt anything, but I was a little worried. Director Chang Hezhi frowned and hesitated, "But isn't five too many?"
"No," Lu Zhou shook his head. "In terms of security, the maximum load of our full-circulation colonial capsule is ten adult men, and five colonists are less than half of the maximum load. Two people carry more Resupply is not particularly difficult for the colonial ship Xu Fu. As for the technical feasibility, I have discussed with the experts from Hangke Group at the previous meeting. The conditions are undoubtedly Allowed."
"But if it fails ..."
"That's impossible," interrupted Director Chang's concerns, Lu Zhou said without hesitation, "I won't allow that to happen ~ EbookFREE.me ~ whether it is three or five people.
As long as he is still in the position of chief designer, he will not let that tragedy happen!
I met the tension in the calmness.
For a moment, Chang Hezhi suddenly understood why both the engineer and the commander of the space launch center were convinced of his orders, and his worship became almost a belief.
The doubts in my heart gradually dissipated, and Chang Hezhi, infected by this unswerving gaze, nodded solemnly slowly.
"Since you think it is necessary, I trust your judgment."
"I will sign the document."
"Just as you say!"
