Chapter 269 The end of the premiere(1/2)
The scientist played by Huang Xiaoming appeared on the scene. He had not slept for several days and nights, and looked sloppy.
He proposed his rescue plan to the director.
Gravity slingshot plan!
To put it simply, the return spacecraft does not land, does not slow down after entering the Earth's gravity range, uses the Earth's gravity to gain acceleration, circles the Earth half way to pick up supplies, and then sets off to Mars. The Earth's gravity is a slingshot that pulls the spacecraft that was originally about to land.
Call out again.
This will save a lot of fuel, but the disadvantage is that this plan requires extremely precise calculations, and no mistakes can be made during the process.
If something goes wrong, the lives of the five astronauts in the return capsule will be in danger.
This is what Professor Zhou Jianping said about the compromise between technology and film and television creation.
Realistically speaking, this plan cannot be considered at all.
In the movie, the director also opposed this plan: "Absolutely not! I can't risk the lives of my five astronauts."
"But there is no better plan right now. Li Jun's potato greenhouse was destroyed and he won't be able to survive for four years!"
The space agency got into endless quarrels over this issue, and finally had no choice but to hand over the problem to Liu Yang and others.
This is also necessary for film and television creation, and this issue will not be left to them to decide.
Liu Yang fully explained the seriousness of the problem to the team members: "We can either do it together or do nothing. Before you answer whether to go or not, think about the consequences."
"If we don't do a good job docking supplies, we will die."
"If we fail to harness Earth's gravity, we will die."
"If we do everything perfectly, we will have to add 533 days to the original task, and we will not be able to see our families until 533 days later."
"In these 533 unplanned days, any accident may happen. If something goes wrong with the mission, we will die. Now, give me the answer."
"Count me in."
"I'll do it."
"In this way, we will have to stay in the universe for more than 900 days, longer than any astronaut. I must be counted among such cool things."
"Me? Of course I will go!"
Liu Yang smiled: "Okay, let's pick him up and take him home."
The team made a decision, and the ground complied and continued to prepare intensively for the second launch plan.
But here, the audience is confused. Li Jun can't go to space. Even if the spacecraft comes, he can't land on Mars because he has to save fuel. How to save him?
The answer came from Li Jun's mouth.
Not far from the Mars base, there is a former supply spacecraft. All he has to do is to board this spacecraft and dock with his teammates in space.
A veritable space rescue!
But a new problem arose. The spacecraft on Mars was too heavy. If it wanted to leave the orbit of Mars and enter space to dock with its teammates, it would have to remove all unnecessary equipment.
The nose of the spacecraft was even removed to reduce weight.
"Do you expect a headless spacecraft to send Li Jun into space?"
"The atmosphere of Mars is very thin, so the cabin does not need to be too streamlined. We can cover it with a canvas cover."
"You're going to wrap him in a piece of cloth and go into space?"
"Yes."
On the other side of Mars, Xia Yu was dismantling the spacecraft and removing all unnecessary parts.
Xia Yu has everything ready, just waiting for the countdown to ignite.
"Everything is normal, countdown is 10 seconds."
"10"
"9"
Xia Yu sat in the cabin, very nervous.
"1, light the fire!"
With a bang, the spacecraft ignited and flew into space with Xia Yu.
But there is another problem. The speed difference between the two is too large to support the convergence of the two parties.
Xia Yu thought of a "good idea": "If I can puncture my spacesuit, I can use the spilled gas as a boost, and then fly over to you. It shouldn't be too difficult to operate, I'm going to put it on my arm
Poke a hole."
But Liu Yang didn't think this was a good idea. Xia Yu said: "But if you think about it, I can fly like Superman."
Liu Yang thought for a while, but he didn't agree or deny his "Superman" plan.
The communication with the ground was interrupted with a backhand.
She got inspiration from Li Jun's plan: "It might be a good idea to use atmospheric boost. What would happen if we blew up the airlock of the maneuvering cabin?"
"You want to open the airlock?"
"This will give us a nice slowdown."
"The air will escape and we will die."
"I will seal the bridge and the nuclear reaction chamber, and create a vacuum elsewhere. Boming." Liu Yang began to call Chen Boming, a chemist.
"Captain, tell me."
"I need you to go back to the cabin... and make a bomb."
"Are you really going to blow up the airlock? I want to remind you that blowing up anything on the spacecraft is dangerous."
"I understand. Can you make a bomb?"
"Can."
Liu Yang reconnected with the communication on the ground and reported the situation: "We are going to deliberately break through the airlock of the maneuvering cabin to create a directional boost."
"Qingqing, don't take off your spacesuit. Go to the No. 1 airtight cabin with Lili to meet. We will open the outer door. You put the bomb on the inner door, and then climb back from the outer shell back to the No. 2 airtight cabin.
"
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Chen Boming is making bombs in the kitchen.
Wang Li took the bomb and joined Sun Qingqing.
Handing the explosives to Sun Qingqing, Wang Li said, "You have to make sure you leave here before the explosives explode." Wang Li then said, "Hey, in space, please pay attention to safety."
Then he held the helmet of Sun Qingqing's space suit and kissed him through the glass: "Don't tell others."
"Oh, it's so sweet!" This scene caused the audience to exclaim.
Sun Qingqing installed the bomb and left.
Captain Liu Yang came up with another idea. She wanted to go out of the cabin to pick up Li Jun in person.
After the explosive exploded, the speed of the spacecraft slowed down and reached the required relative speed for rendezvous.
"Tie me up." Sun Qingqing hung the traction rope on the captain's MMU (Manned Maneuvering Unit).
But the traction rope was still not long enough, and the captain was floating in space waiting for Li Jun.
Cheng Yu'an gave a distant view here. Against the background of space, one end of the orange traction rope is connected to the spacecraft and the other end is connected to the astronaut.
The picture is beautiful.
Li Jun found that the distance was still not enough, so he pricked his palm, and with the help of the air ejected from the spacesuit, he flew towards Liu Yang from the cabin.
"This space special effect is awesome! How was it done?" Even people in the industry couldn't help but lament the visual effect of this scene.
Li Jun rolled around in space, trying to control the gas ejected from his palms.
Close, close.
The two held hands together, but due to the force of the jet, they missed it again.
But fortunately, Li Jun grabbed the traction rope behind him and was led around by the traction rope.
"Army, hold on, I'll pull you over."
The two got closer and closer, and with a bang, the helmets of their spacesuits collided.
"I got him!"
Cheng Yuan used another long shot here, with the two embracing in space, with an orange traction rope surrounding them.
Space romance.
"Captain, you...your taste in music is really bad!"
"Hahaha!" Liu Yang burst into laughter.
"Command center, I caught him."
