While everyone was chatting, suddenly a voice came from the stereo.
"Attention all units, the inflation experiment of the 'Oasis-1 Expandable Inflatable Space Experiment Module' is about to begin."
Hearing this voice, Wu Hao and the others immediately ended their chat, and then turned to look at the huge high-definition screen in the small conference room.
At this moment, the screen is divided into several parts. The middle one shows the entire command and control hall, and the surrounding areas of the screen are divided into several small windows, each with a picture.
There are relevant data displayed and relevant surveillance videos.
For example, there is a surveillance video picture facing the earth at the moment, and you can see the blue earth full of clouds. There is also a surveillance video picture, which is aimed at the outer body of the entire space experiment module. In addition to being able to see
From the shape of the cabin, you can still see the sun's rays on the horizon in the distance.
Five minutes to prepare!
As the broadcast sound sounded, these small windows began to gradually display monitoring images from various positions and angles on the 'Oasis 1 Expandable Inflatable Space Experiment Module'.
Isn't it just an experiment? Why are you all so nervous? Zhang Jun couldn't help complaining. Although he was complaining about others, he was actually more nervous than others, and he clenched his hands unconsciously.
Are you not nervous? After all, this is the first spacecraft we have developed by ourselves, and it is related to several of our subsequent projects. How can we not be nervous? Yang Fan is out of breath.
It's useless to be nervous. Now we can only wait and see what happens. Nothing can be done to help. Zou Xiaodong smiled and then asked Wu Hao: "Tonight's Oasis 1 expandable inflatable space experimental capsule
'Is the entire process of inflation and inflation broadcast live?"
Wu Hao smiled and nodded when he heard this: "Only in this way can we be more transparent, show our confidence, and demonstrate the reliability of our technology to the outside world.
Otherwise, it is easy to be questioned, especially from overseas. You also know that there are a group of people who like to catch something they think they are doing to confuse us.
So, we can’t give them this chance.”
But what if something unexpected happens? Zou Xiaodong couldn't help but ask.
Hehehehe, Wu Hao smiled and said: "Scientific experiments can guarantee success without any accidents. It is normal to have accidents. What is important is our attitude towards these problems.
Besides, I have confidence in our spacecraft and our technical personnel."
I think it’s better not to have too much hope. If it’s really reliable, it won’t be postponed until tonight. Just be prepared for failure. Zou Xiaodong sighed.
His words aroused Zhang Jun's dissatisfaction, and he immediately scolded: "It hasn't started yet, what are you talking about? You have to have confidence in our technology and our scientific researchers. I believe in this 'Oasis'"
The Expandable Inflatable Space Experiment Module No. 1 will definitely succeed."
One minute to prepare.
Hearing the sound from the speaker, Wu Hao immediately waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, just wait and see what happens. Whether it succeeds or not depends on what happens next."
Upon hearing his voice, everyone immediately fell silent and then focused on looking at the big screen.
Thirty seconds, twenty seconds, ten seconds... five, four, three, two, one, the expansion and inflation experiment of the 'Oasis 1 inflatable space experimental capsule' begins now.
The expansion and contraction of the spacecraft cabin begins!
With the sound of subzero, the large screen in the center of the screen switched to the extravehicular surveillance screen of the Oasis-1 Expandable Inflatable Space Experiment Module. Through the cameras arranged outside the cabin, everyone can clearly see that it has
The folded and shrunk polymer composite soft-shell capsule began to gradually extend in length.
This is just like the telescopic drain pipe on the washing machine at home. By stretching, the folded polymer composite soft-shell cabin begins to gradually lengthen and stretch.
However, due to the vacuum, the entire expansion process is very slow. During the expansion of the soft-shell cabin, the air storage device in the rear service cabin will continuously inflate and pressurize the soft-shell cabin.
The entire polymer composite soft-shell cabin will continue to stretch and expand, and will continue to expand and become larger.
The whole process will last two to three hours and is very slow.
However, judging from the current situation, everything was normal, and then there was a burst of warm applause in the command and control hall.
The people watching in the small conference room also started to malfunction.
Okay, a good start is half the success. I have confidence in our spacecraft. Zhang Jun clapped his hands and said excitedly.
This process is too slow, can't it be faster? I'm so impatient. Zou Xiaodong said anxiously.
Haha, Yang Fan on the side smiled and explained: "Because this is the first inflatable experiment, the scientific research team was more cautious and chose this safer method to conduct it.
This is just like our lunar rover and Mars rover on the moon and Mars. They also move very slowly on the moon and Mars. It is not like we imagined that they can race on the moon and Mars. It is not like this.
This is not because scientists are unwilling to speed up, but to be on the safe side and to avoid accidents.
Judging from the information disclosed so far, our Yuetu-1 lunar rover malfunctioned and stopped because it was traveling too fast and was tripped by rocks on the moon and cut off the relevant cables on the vehicle.
This is in space, not on the ground. If there is a problem on the ground, we can still send people to repair it. But in space, it is difficult for us to send people to repair it.
Even if it is possible, the cost of repairs is very high.
Therefore, before the technology has been successfully verified, the scientific research team will choose such a more secure and relaxed approach.
Look at the command and control hall, these technical experts are closely monitoring the data changes of the 'Oasis-1 Expandable Inflatable Space Experiment Module' during the inflation process. Once any problems arise, they will solve them in time and even
Stop the whole experiment."
Then we just sit here like this? Zou Xiaodong looked at the crowd and said.
Hehe hehe, everyone smiled at each other, Wu Hao then waved his hand and said: "Yes, it's not a problem to just sit like this. Let's have someone bring us some food, and let's eat, drink, and watch.
While chatting.
I remember it seems like we haven’t gotten together like this for a long time, so today is just the opportunity to take advantage of it.”
This is good, I'll let someone do it now. Zhang Jun's eyes lit up and he immediately cheered.
I want to eat barbecue, please give me some more chicken wings and a few bottles of beer. Zou Xiaodong immediately said happily.
