While Wu Hao and the others were talking, the live TV screen had switched to the first-person view of the extravehicular surveillance camera on the space station and the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft.
At this time, the space station and the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft were very close, about a hundred meters away, so they could already see each other on each other's screens.
At this time, the space agency has entered the final, most difficult, and most critical moment of rendezvous and docking. How difficult is it? In the words of aerospace experts, it is to penetrate a pinhole several hundred meters away with the speed of a bullet.
.
This compatibility is actually not an exaggeration. The orbiting speed of our national space station is 7.68 kilometers per second, which means that it has to fly seven or eight kilometers in one second. At such a fast speed, it is necessary to realize the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft.
The difficulty of handing over and docking with the space station can be imagined.
Although the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft and the space station are both at relative speeds, this high-speed teaching docking itself also represents the world's top aerospace technology, which only a few countries have mastered.
Although our space station has experienced dozens of dockings since it was in orbit, this kind of docking task has become routine and people don't pay too much attention to it.
But this is the docking experiment of our country's first commercial manned spacecraft. This is also the first time that the space station has docked a commercial manned spacecraft. Although it is unmanned, it is also a major initiative.
Especially since there are astronauts staying in the space station, there will undoubtedly be huge safety risks in docking in this case. If you are not careful, the consequences are unimaginable, and this responsibility is probably something Wu Hao and the others cannot bear.
So for Wu Hao, although he was very confident in their own technology, at the final moment of docking, he became inexplicably nervous and stared at the big screen for fear of missing any details.
Of course, it is useless for Wu Hao and the others to be nervous, because this docking is in automatic docking mode and does not require manual control. This is a common way for spacecraft to dock in orbit. In addition, there is manual docking, but this
This method is not commonly used, but is only used in emergencies or training.
Although the entire process is handed over to the space station and the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft for automatic docking without human intervention, the astronauts on the space station will also pay close attention to the entire docking process and can stop the docking in an emergency.
.It can even control the space station to perform emergency orbit changes to urgently avoid spacecraft and other spacecraft approaching out of control due to docking failure.
This time, the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft is docked with the docking port located at the top of the space station's node module. As for the manned spacecraft originally docked here, it has been transferred to the docking port below by the robotic arm.
This requires the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft to first fly to the orbit in front of the space station and maintain the same relative speed as the space station. Then it will turn 180 degrees and then slowly slow down, so that the space station and the space station
The Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft is getting closer and closer.
During this docking process, several parking points will be set up, and they will be approached step by step. Although the docking is fast, the process cannot be faster because the closer to the final critical moment, the slower it must be.
Eighty meters, fifty meters, thirty meters...
Ten meters, five meters, one meter! In the end, the spacecraft was parked in an area only one meter away from the space station. Under everyone's attention, the space station slowly approached and finally docked together accurately.
good!
Lin Wei, who was next to Wu Hao, suddenly jumped up.
Wu Hao was startled, and then smiled.
Seeing Wu Hao's calm look, Lin Wei was a little puzzled and said: "Why are you so calm about such a big happy event? Please be happy."
Wu Hao smiled and then said calmly: "I must be happy, but just be happy in my heart. Let me jump up like you. I can't do this."
Come on, just pretend. Lin Wei rolled her eyes at him, then a smile appeared on her lips, then she picked up her mobile communication device and started taking a picture of Wu Hao, then walked over and started playing with it with a smile.
Wu Hao heard this and stood up with a smile, stretched out, and then looked at the mobile communication device placed on the table next to him. Various messages had begun to pop up on it.
In response, Wu Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head repeatedly. Although he didn't like this kind of social interaction, he still had to deal with it. No matter what the other party's mentality was, he couldn't refuse when someone called to congratulate him.
Bar.
Although Coco would automatically reply to most messages for him, some calls and messages still had to be answered by him personally. In this way, he had been dealing with these calls all morning, and this seemed to have become the norm.
Wu Hao is a little scared now, but he has no choice, who wants to live in such a human society.
After finishing these tasks, Wu Hao looked at the time and found that it was already noon.
Lin Wei was already busy in the kitchen. Wu Hao saw this and walked in. He saw Lin Wei wearing an apron and a headscarf, cooking vegetables.
Seeing Wu Hao come in, Lin Wei immediately pinched a piece of shredded meat with her hands, fed it to Wu Hao and said with a smile: "You are hungry, the food will be ready soon."
Wu Hao smiled and shredded the meat with his mouth, chewed it, then opened his mouth and fanned it with his hands.
so spicy!
This is Lin Wei's specialty dish, shredded pork with hot peppers, which is actually stir-fried with two wattle sticks and green peppers. For those who are used to eating spicy food, this spiciness is naturally not a problem, and they may even find it objectionable.
not spicy.
But for people like Wu Hao and Lin Wei, who can tolerate spicy food and like spicy food but are not very intolerant of spicy food, this level of spiciness is just right.
Hurry up and drink some water. I put in too much vitex today and it’s a bit spicy! Seeing the sweat on Wu Hao’s forehead, Lin Wei couldn’t help but urge.
It’s okay, it’s okay, the spiciness is appetizing! Wu Hao said with a smile.
Lin Wei didn't insist when she saw this, but said while busy: "I fried shredded pork with pepper, roasted beef with potatoes, steamed anchovies, broccoli with garlic, and tomatoes and eggs.
and mushrooms and green vegetables, and finally made a stewed beef bone soup with Bawang flowers.”
That’s enough, they are all my favorite dishes! Wu Hao praised with a smile.
Okay, bring it to the dining table, it will be ready soon! Lin Wei looked at Wu Hao's eagerness to try, and then said with a smile.
Great! After receiving the instructions, we started to carry the prepared meals to the table happily, then picked a bottle of red wine, took it out, opened it and introduced it into the decanter.
Lin Wei walked out of the kitchen carrying the last dish, looked at Wu Hao who was sobering up, and then laughed: "It seems that someone is in a high mood today, and he insists on being calm."
Haha, I’m happy today, let’s drink some! Wu Hao didn’t refute when he heard this, but picked up the decanter and started to drink!
