Yuan Zifeng seemed very relaxed. After communicating with the technical staff who assisted him for a period of time, Yuan Zifeng also began to carry out his own work in accordance with relevant work procedures.
Nanhai, this is Walker 4, can you hear it?
I can hear it, very good. Inside the launch command and control center, the liaison officer answered in a very loud voice.
Yuan Zifeng put on a headset to test communication. Compared with traditional headsets, the voice communication system used in this in-cabin spacesuit is Wu Hao's smart voice assistant. On the top of the microphone, a weak green breathing light glows slightly.
flashing.
The technical staff here exchanged a few words with Yuan Zifeng, and then evacuated the manned return capsule. The hanging ladder that was put into the return capsule was also retracted, but the hatch was never closed.
Technical staff need to wait for a response from Yuan Zifeng and instructions from the command and control center before closing the hatch. Once the hatch is closed, it will not be opened again unless the launch is terminated. Therefore, caution and confirmation are needed.
The order will be issued only after everything is completed.
In the launch command and control center, Wu Hao also sat up and carefully watched the relevant pictures and data information on the big screen.
The Xinyuehu Aerospace Command and Control Center located in the Anxi Haoyu Science and Technology Headquarters Park carried out the command and control mission of Walker 4. Because this is a civilian launch mission after all, it is natural that Wu Hao and others should independently conduct command and control.
.
In the future, if some official related tasks are carried out, they will be handed over to a command and control center like Beijing.
Therefore, in the live broadcasts of CCTV and other media, images of the Xinyuehu Space Command and Control Center will often appear. For this first manned first flight of a civilian spacecraft in China, CCTV also sent out several channels of media to follow up.
According to reports, its standard size is already comparable to the treatment of some official large-scale space missions.
Compared with other command and control centers, the Xinyuehu Aerospace Command and Control Hall attracted strong attention and praise from netizens as soon as it was exposed.
Different from the traditional square, upright, and atmospheric aerospace command and control center, the Xinyuehu Aerospace Command and Control Hall looks full of science fiction.
Especially the three walls are covered with screens. My brother’s screen displays various data information, and even the transparent glass on one side also displays some content information.
As well as the special functional area layout, lighting, and decorative design, the Xinyuehu Aerospace Command and Control Hall is full of science fiction and has won praises from a large number of fans.
This is the aerospace command and control center in everyone's mind, and it conforms to everyone's imagination of high-tech and cutting-edge technology.
Similarly, in the command and control hall of the Nanhai Launch Site, Wu Hao can also see the situation in the Xinyuehu Aerospace Command and Control Hall. The relevant data information of Yu Chengwu, Zhou Xiangming and others here also need to be synchronized with that there.
Finally, the order that everyone was expecting was issued. On the big screen, the technical staff communicated with Yuan Zifeng in the cabin for a while, and then began to close the docking port door.
After the cabin door is closed and the status is confirmed to be normal, the cabin begins to be pressurized to check the air tightness of the entire spacecraft. When the air tightness is confirmed to be normal, the air pressure in the cabin will be reduced to a comfortable range to maintain.
The docking interface protective cover at the top begins to close, and the technical staff on the transfer platform will also evacuate. Because at this time, they are no longer needed here. Not only do they evacuate, the entire launch tower, including the surrounding area
Everyone within one kilometer will evacuate according to relevant procedures and wait for the launch moment to arrive.
Attention everyone, prepare in one hour!
As the one-hour countdown sounded, the atmosphere in the entire launch command and control center began to solidify. Everyone knew that whether the launch could be successful or not depended on the last hour or so.
On the big screen, with a beeping sound, from top to bottom, the rotating platform protecting the Jianmu-7 rocket and Walker-4 manned spacecraft assembly began to slowly open, revealing the rocket and spacecraft bodies inside.
The whole process lasted for more than ten minutes, but in everyone's mind, it seemed as if more than a century had passed, very slowly. Everyone stared closely at the data information on the big screen, paying attention to every flashing data information, making sure not to miss half of it.
letters.
With the revolving platform fully opened, the entire Jianmu-7 rocket and Walker-4 manned spacecraft combination appeared in front of the public.
The actual Jianmu-7 rocket consists of a total of one and two stages. The bottom stage rocket is a second-hand rocket, so the color of the rocket is slightly yellow, while the second stage rocket is a new one.
Rocket, so the mountain looks relatively new overall.
These two stages of the rocket constitute the entire Jianmu-7 rocket, and above this is the Walker 4 manned spacecraft. It consists of a propulsion service module and a manned return module, with the short cylinder below
The main body is the propulsion service module, which is the power source of the entire spacecraft, and is also the functional support warehouse for energy and a series of other parts.
There will be a very obvious blue skin on both sides of the propulsion orbital module. Under this skin, there are solar wing battery sail panels.
The skin will automatically fall off a few seconds before the arrow is separated. If the automatic shedding fails, the skin will be physically pulled off when the second-stage rocket separates, thereby leaking the solar wing battery sail panel inside, ensuring that the solar wing battery
The windsurfing board can be deployed normally.
The four-sided obtuse-angled cone above is the very theme of the Walker series, the manned return capsule. It is very similar to the Dragon spacecraft, but the difference between it and the Dragon spacecraft has Haoyu Technology's own style.
At this time, fans and viewers from all over the world are paying attention to the spacecraft and the Jianmu-7 rocket below through live broadcasts.
Attention everyone, I am number zero, I will prepare in thirty minutes.
Thirty minutes to prepare and all personnel to evacuate.
In fact, the relevant personnel have already evacuated. These are the final security and investigation personnel, as well as the final emergency response team members, who will evacuate all the last personnel from the scene.
This also means that the launch has reached the final countdown stage.
"Ten minutes to prepare!"
Following this order, there was silence in the command and control hall. The technicians were all attentive, watching every data on their screens to ensure that nothing was missed.
Wu Hao and the people around him also ended their chat, staring closely at the figure of the rocket displayed on the big screen, and silently reciting the countdown numbers in his heart.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven... one, ignition, take off!"
Boom! Although they were about two kilometers apart, Wu Hao and the others in the command and control hall could still hear the huge roar that erupted after the rocket was ignited.
