Annihilation of the solar system

"Reporting to the commander, the astronauts are ready for launch. We are about to evacuate. I wish you good luck!"

Lu Yuanzhou replied:

"I see, thank you!"

After speaking, the staff began to leave the shuttle one by one. The last staff member pressed a red button on the hatch before leaving, and the hatch began to slowly close and make a locking mechanical sound.

Xia Lan looked through the porthole and saw the broad wing on one side, which gave off a metallic luster under the sunlight.

Not long after, the next train of fuselage left the aircraft in an orderly manner. The instructions from the aerospace control center came from the earphones:

"All systems checked. Control center ready!"

"Tower ready!"

"The aircraft is ready!"

"Shuttle is ready!"

"Radar ready!"

"Yuanwang is ready!"

A string of ready answers came to the radio headset from all directions.

The control center issues orders.

"Enter takeoff procedure!"

the crew member replied.

"Carrying aircraft received! Ready to take off!"

Lu Yuanzhou replied.

"The shuttle understands!"

Xia Lan, Wei Xu and Lin Tianyu all began to get nervous.

Lin Tianyu, who was sitting behind Xia Lan, tightly grasped the armrests of the space seat with both hands and breathed rapidly with his eyes closed.

"Senior Brother Lin, don't be so nervous. Aren't we on the same boat?" Wei Xu's unhurried voice came from the earphones.

Lin Tianyu opened his closed eyes, glanced at Wei Xu and found that he was not looking at himself at all but looking out the window:

"You...how do you know I'm nervous? I'm not nervous!"

"That's weird! I heard your breathing through the headphones." Wei Xu said in the same unhurried manner.

Lin Tianyu ignored Wei Xu and just controlled his breathing which was really rapid.

The loud roar of the engine's acceleration began to be heard in the shuttle, and the plane began to slide slowly.

The plane began to shake slightly. As the sound from the six jet engines gradually became shrill and shrill, the plane's taxiing speed became faster and faster. The slight shaking before had turned into a vibration.

They have all read the content about take-off in the flight manual. Due to the large size, the lift of the main wing surface of the aircraft does not reach balance during taxiing on the ground. It is normal for the elastic deformation of the aircraft structure to cause vibration. But this still makes these three never

Scientists who have been to space are very nervous.

Wei Xu looked at the swaying wings outside the window and tried his best to adjust his breathing to control the fear in his heart. Soon they felt themselves being pushed back on the chair, and their whole bodies seemed to be rotated upwards, and then the vibrations disappeared.

, the plane has left the ground.

The only difference from taking an ordinary passenger plane is that the climb slope of the plane is obviously much greater than that of an ordinary passenger plane, and the speed is also much faster.

The resulting overload made them feel like they were on a pirate ship, but the past few months of training and wearing anti-overload space suits had allowed them to deal with this overload very calmly.

Within a few minutes, the high-rise buildings and vehicles outside the porthole window were completely invisible. The scene they saw now was like looking at a terrain map on a sand table.

The plane's climbing gradient decreased slightly, but it still maintained its climbing trend. The clouds gradually disappeared from the windows, replaced by a pure sapphire-like sky that was refreshing.

At this moment, they could no longer tell the direction. Their downward vision was blocked by the huge wings, and the view from any direction was pure blue like a gem.

The sound of the aircraft engine became quieter, and the aircraft ended its steep climb and entered a stable level flight state.

The captain's voice came from the earphones:

"The aircraft has reached an altitude of 18,000 meters and is cruising at a speed of Mach 2.2. The first stage of flight is over. Now we will start the second stage of flight. We will slowly climb to an altitude of 30,000 meters, reach a cruise speed of Mach 3, and enter the orbital route."

"Okay, I understand!" Lu Yuanzhou replied.

The huge body of the super transport aircraft is like a shining metallic feather in the vast upper atmosphere. As the aircraft climbs further, no details of the surface can be seen on the ground at present, only the outline of the mountains and rivers can be seen.

At this moment, the ground is no longer flat, and the curvature of the earth is very obvious. The sky above is no longer so pure blue, but has a hint of cosmic black, and the sparse stars are also in the sky that is gradually fading away from the blue.

Shine up.

The captain's voice came from the wireless power again:

"It has entered the predetermined orbital route. It is currently flying at an altitude of 30,000 meters and a flying speed of Mach 3. It is ready to enter the third stage of flight. Countdown is 30 seconds."

"Okay! I understand!" Lu Yuanzhou replied.

Xia Lan was very aware of the flight status that the plane was going to enter next. She subconsciously leaned her body against the seat, but the seat belt and the fully plastic seat had wrapped her tightly, making it impossible for her to move at all.

She noticed that Wei Xu was turning to look at her, so she gave him a wink to ask him to turn his head. Because when the plane is heavily overloaded, it may be dangerous if the head and neck are not supported.

"5,4,3,2,1! Ramjet ignition!" the captain's command appeared in the headset.

A few seconds later, the originally high-pitched and sharp engine sound suddenly became dull and broad. The plane shook slightly again, and suddenly an inexplicable force pressed them tightly against the back of the seat, and the plane began to accelerate violently!

At this moment, they were no longer in the mood to look at the scene outside the window. The feeling of pushing their chests and lungs was already more intense than a roller coaster in an ordinary amusement park.

Wei Xu tried hard to control his breathing. He wanted to turn his head to look at Xia Lan next to him, but found it difficult to turn his head even a little bit. His body was pushed tightly onto the seat.

He looked out the window with his peripheral vision, and the sporadic twinkling stars were much brighter than before. He was surprised to find that it was obvious that the stars were moving backward. This was the relative vision brought about by their super-fast flight speed.

Difference.

The engine's dull and loud roaring noise filled everyone's ears, and the vibrations of the fuselage gradually stabilized. The overload imposed on them gradually decreased, and the aircraft's acceleration became slower and smoother.

"The current flight altitude is 40,000 meters and the flight speed is Mach 7. The orbit position deviation is within the specified range, and the conditions for launch are met! I wish you good luck!" the captain's voice came over the radio.

"Okay! Thank you! 30 seconds countdown for launching the program." Lu Yuanzhou replied.

Lin Tianyu's heart tightened. He understood that the launch procedure was the moment when they would face the greatest overload. It was not only a test of their physical limits, but also a test of the spacecraft's limits.

His hands and feet began to tremble uncontrollably, and he glanced sideways at Wei Xu opposite him. But blocked by the seat, he could only see Wei Xu's figure being tightly restrained on the seat. He turned his gaze again

Lu Yuanzhou moved to the forward cockpit. The commander is now his only hope and support.

I saw Lu Yuanzhou skillfully pressing various switches on the panel, and finally put his hand on the joystick:

"Ready for delivery, 10 seconds countdown. 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!"

As Lu Yuanzhou's countdown ended, the shuttle trembled slightly. They only felt their bodies sinking slightly, and the harsh engine sound suddenly decreased a lot.

The separation of the shuttle and the transport plane had been completed. Lin Tianyu glanced down through the porthole, and the huge white wings were slowly leaving his sight.

Lu Yuanzhou pressed a red button on his left hand side, and a huge roar sounded again. The shuttle trembled violently, and they were pushed to the seats. The rocket engine of the shuttle was successfully ignited.

Lin Tianyu only felt as if his whole body was pressed under a water-soaked sponge. He could not feel any pain, but the force was so huge that he could not move at all. Every breath he took became more difficult, as if there were countless hands holding him down.

He had to use all his strength to expand his chest every time.

The training he had received before seemed to have no effect at this moment. His vision began to gradually blur, and the surrounding light and shadow began to gradually dim and get darker. His brain could no longer think about anything, and his limbs were almost completely out of control. His vision

Gradually losing his breath. All he could do was try his best to inhale and exhale rhythmically.

I don’t know how long this state of confusion has passed, but it gradually began to improve. The sound of the roaring rocket engine disappeared, and the tremors of the shuttle disappeared. The force that pressed them tightly on the seats also gradually faded away.

, until you can’t feel it at all.

Lin Tianyu clearly felt the blood slowly flowing from his back throughout his body. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked around.

Wei Xu had already taken off one of his gloves and threw it into the air. The glove did not fall straight to the ground as usual. Instead, it rotated in the direction of Wei Xu's throw and flew out until it hit the ceiling.

Then it bounced back. Just like the gingerbread man in the cartoon.

Wei Xu reached out to grab the glove and turned to look at Xia Lan and Lin Tianyu:

"Sister Lan, senior brother. We are really in space, there is no gravity."

Lu Yuanzhou said with confidence and pride:

"Yes, we have crossed the 100-kilometer Karman Line and entered space!"
