At three o'clock in the morning, the sky was full of stars, and the Nanhai launch site was brightly lit.
Many people have gathered in front of Feitian Pavilion. Some of them are holding national flags, holding banners, or happily singing red songs. Everyone is looking forward to it, waiting for the most shining and absolute protagonist to appear today.
Accompanied by a burst of cheers, Wu Hao, Zhou Chengfang, and Gao Jinguang appeared on the scene. Then, while smiling and waving, they walked to the microphone that had been set up and stood there, waiting for today's protagonist to come out.
According to the official official launcher departure ceremony, the person who presided over the ceremony should be the supreme commander present, the general. However, this is a civilian spacecraft launch, so these factors are eliminated as much as possible, which is also conducive to external image display. They really
is in the peaceful use of space.
Of course, this is just an attitude or appearance. As for whether others believe it or not, I don’t know. Anyway, they don’t believe it in their own hearts.
Not long after the three of them stood there, an exciting march started to play. Along with the applause and cheers of the crowd, they saw astronaut Yuan Zifeng, wearing a new sci-fi-style cabin space suit designed and developed by Wu Hao and others, from Feitian Pavilion.
Came out.
He smiled and waved to everyone. In his other hand, he also held a small external air-conditioning device. This device was connected to the space suit through cables to provide power, ventilation, etc. for the space suit, so that it could maintain normal conditions inside.
The temperature and humidity are so high that astronauts wearing spacesuits will not feel stuffy due to the hot outside temperature.
After walking to a microphone about three meters in front of Wu Hao and the other three, Yuan Zifeng stood at attention and saluted the three of them neatly.
Then he raised his voice and shouted: "Comrade Commander-in-Chief, I have been ordered to carry out the Walker 4 manned flight experiment mission. I am ready. Please give instructions to Yuan Zifeng, an astronaut of the Chinese... Military Astronaut Brigade!"
Let’s go! Wu Hao, who was standing in the middle, raised his voice and replied. As the person in charge of Haoyu Technology, Wu Hao naturally became the top person in charge of this project, so it stands to reason that he should preside over the expedition ceremony. Of course.
, it’s not like he doesn’t know how to behave, he also brought Gao Jinguang and Zhou Chengfang, who represented the launch site and astronaut department, to jointly host the expedition ceremony. Although the two stood beside Wu Hao and did not speak, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with him.
There is a sense of presence, but letting them attend is already showing respect.
Yes! Yuan Zifeng responded loudly.
Then the high-spirited march sounded again, and everyone onlookers cheered and blessed him.
Yuan Zifeng waved to everyone present, and then walked up to Wu Hao. Wu Hao shook hands with Yuan Zifeng and said with a smile: "Have a safe trip!"
Thank you, Mr. Wu! Yuan Zifeng smiled and thanked him, then shook hands with Zhou Chengfang and Gao Jinguang, and then accompanied by music, Yuan Zifeng waved around, especially when passing by his family, Yuan Zifeng showed loving eyes and waved gently.
After waving goodbye to his family and everyone, he walked to the door of the business car that had been prepared long ago, turned around and waved goodbye to everyone, and then got into the car.
Several accompanying staff also got on the bus one after another, the door slowly closed, and the entire vehicle was escorted by the motorcade and headed for the launch site.
Watching the motorcade leave, Zhou Chengfang waved again, and then said with some emotion: "Although I have experienced this scene many times, every time I am very excited, nervous, worried, and reluctant to leave.
In my eyes, they are not only astronauts, but more like my children. I personally recruited them and then trained them to eventually grow into qualified astronauts.
Now he is about to go on a mission and take a big exam. As a class teacher, I feel very complicated at this time."
Speaking of this, Zhou Chengfang looked at Gao Jinguang and said, "Old Gao, the rest is up to you."
Don't worry, I will send him to space safely. Gao Jinguang comforted with a smile, but judging from his expression, this mission is not easy. In fact, it is no wonder that for them, the new rocket,
This is the first manned launch of a new spacecraft. Such a launch mission can be said to be very challenging. There are too many unknowns, which also makes them feel a lot of pressure.
Although we have experienced three unmanned experimental spacecraft launches before and have accumulated some relatively rich experience and data, this manned launch is different. Let’s not talk about other aspects, it is just the psychological pressure it brings to everyone.
, which makes these launch site veterans who have a lot of surprises feel uncomfortable.
Wu Hao naturally took the reaction and performance of the two seriously, and then smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, please believe that our rocket and our spaceship will be able to send him to the sky safely and smoothly, and he will also
Sent back safely."
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Zhou Chengfang and Gao Jinguang couldn't help but nodded. Gao Jinguang waved and said, "Let's go back to the launch command and control center. We still have a lot of work to do."
After hearing Gao Jinguang's words, Wu Hao and Zhou Chengfang did not delay, and immediately walked towards the launch command and control center. Although for Wu Hao, at this moment, his mission has been completed, and his main job next is to be a good spectator.
.Do not interfere, do not affect the entire launch process, watch the entire launch process quietly. And at the end, just go on stage to announce the results.
However, at this moment, Wu Hao couldn't help but feel uneasy. After all, it was the first manned launch mission, and there were too many uncertainties. Rocket spacecraft launches do not have a 100% success rate, and risks are always accompanied.
What's more, this is the first manned launch, so the risk is higher. It is very likely that a small mistake will eventually lead to the launch failure.
If the previous unmanned experimental spacecraft failed, it would be a failure. The worst case scenario would be to lose some money and start over. But this time is different. This is a manned launch, and there is no room for failure. You must know that this involves a human life.
There is no reason for them to be careless.
People knew that the risk of this mission was very high, and they resolutely chose to participate in this mission. This is a lot of trust in them, and it is equivalent to putting their lives in their hands. If they are negligent and end up with an unfortunate launch.
, then they are derelict in their duties, a crime, and can never be forgiven.
Even this incident is likely to become an unforgettable regret for Wu Hao and others. They will live with such regrets and remorse throughout their lives and never let go.
Therefore, at this moment, he also felt a lot of pressure. Although he hid it well, because as the general person in charge of this mission, Wu Hao had to show confidence and calmness in order to stabilize the morale of the military.
If one of the people in charge shows a worried look, then the people below will inevitably be affected by them, and the entire team may be affected by Wu Hao's emotions and mentality, and ultimately affect their decision-making.
