Annihilation of the solar system

Chapter 97: The Fiery Firmament

But Lin Tianyu was already in a panic at this time and did not hear Wei Xu's shouting at all. Wei Xu looked up and down and found nothing unusual, but he seemed to vaguely hear the "Seal leak!" AI through Lin Tian's intercom.

Alarm sound.

He suddenly thought that when Lin Tian was hanging under the gondola to install the resonant wave interferometer, he reached out to grab the alien detector, but it slipped! He quickly grabbed Lin Tianyu's right hand that was stroking around his body, and turned it over

At first glance, there was indeed a scratch on the palm of his glove!

The scratch may not have penetrated originally, but it was damaged due to the corrosion of the high-concentration acid cloud. Lin Tianyu looked at Wei Xu in horror, and subconsciously wanted to clench his palms to prevent the toxic and corrosive gas from entering the damaged area. Xia

Only now did Lan stand up from the fall.

"Don't worry, the space suit has an emergency repair kit, don't move!" Wei Xu shouted sternly as he forcefully broke Lin Tianyu's hand that he wanted to hold tightly.

He skillfully took out a small bottle from the emergency bag and sprayed it on the damaged area of ​​Lin Tianyu's palm. It was a non-Newtonian fluid gel specially prepared for accidental damage to the space suit.

Then, he threw away the bottle and quickly took out a small roll of tape from the small bag and wrapped it back and forth around the broken part of his glove. The alarm in Lin Tianyu's spacesuit finally stopped, and he calmed down.

"What's going on!" Lu Yuanzhou's voice came from the earphones.

Wei Xu raised his head and saw that Lu Yuanzhou was already looking at them nervously from the hatch above his head.

Wei Xu waved his hand and said:

"Senior Brother Lin's space suit was leaked, and we have simply dealt with it. We lowered the winch hook and pulled him up. He can't stay down there anymore."

Lu Yuanzhou nodded and operated the winch to lower a hook.

Wei Xu walked to Xia Lan, took the intelligent guidance device in his hand and said:

"Senior sister, you should also go up and help Senior Brother Lin deal with the breach. It is difficult for him to deal with that position by himself."

Xia Lan did not loosen the rope buckle on the intelligent guidance device, and said with a troubled expression:

"How can that be done? You can't do it alone."

Wei Xu smiled, reached out and unhooked the safety rope buckle on Xia Lan's belt, and buckled it on his own belt:

"Don't worry, just let the commander stabilize the aircraft. After that, after you help Senior Brother Lin handle it, you can come down and help me."

After speaking, he pointed to the sea of ​​clouds rolling around like waves, with a playful smile on his face:

"We don't have time to discuss this here! Senior sister!"

At this moment, the surrounding sea of ​​clouds was like a boiling hot pot, with air currents coming and going just like the one that hit their aircraft. The scene in the distance was even more terrifying. The overwhelming wall could clearly be seen like a giant dragon on the wall.

The lightning rushed past, and the orange mist was rolled up and thrown randomly.

The closer the clouds were to the wall, the more they were distorted and deformed. They were torn and pulled into the cloud wall without restraint. The cloud platform at the junction of the cloud wall had been raised high and climbed onto the cloud wall.

A little further away from the cloud wall, the sea looks like a tsunami blown up by the strong wind. The entire sea of ​​clouds bulges high toward the end near the cloud wall, like a slope, and the clouds on those slopes are like the morning exercises on the elementary school playground that were just announced last night.

The students were dismissed and were running around.

The orange light scattered by the sun and the light of lightning rendered everything into a bloody orange-red. These lights were intertwined and spread on the clouds like a flood, making the scene in front of me look like a sky burning with fire.

Hou Peng almost didn't need to look at the image on the monitor. He could tell that the climate conditions below were very bad just by looking at the circulation of Venus' atmosphere. The radio communication with Lu Yuanzhou was also intermittent. Based on his own experience, he judged that the climate conditions below were already very bad.

We can no longer wait for Commander Lu Yuanzhou's orders. If we don't go down and pick them up, not to mention the data will not be obtained, even the astronauts will be buried in the violent atmosphere of Venus.

He put on his space helmet and quickly crossed the connection channel to enter the shuttle and steered her away from the space station. When he started the autopilot, the computer reminded him that the best orbit design required one orbit around Venus before he could reach the ideal height, speed and speed.

Angle entered the atmosphere and reached the location of Lu Yuanzhou and the others.

However, it takes more than 80 minutes to orbit Venus. Hou Peng knew that Lu Yuanzhou and the others could not persist for that long, so he decisively switched to manual driving mode. The shuttle's tail nozzle shone brightly, like a meteorite

It fell straight into the dense atmosphere of Venus.

Due to the very fast falling speed, the spacecraft was shaking violently. However, Hou Peng could not let the spacecraft fly autonomously like before when re-entering the atmosphere. He just had to wait for the re-entry to end. He needed to desperately keep an eye on the motor that was shaking like a mobile phone vibrator.

The same inertial navigation screen.

He must always grasp the relative position and speed of the shuttle, and must adjust the posture of the shuttle at the correct time and position, so that he can use the shuttle's waverider structural layout to create several "water floats" at the edge of Venus' atmosphere.

"Jump" the spacecraft to the desired location.

And he only has one chance for each key operation. Once he misses his position, he will never be able to see Lu Yuanzhou and Xia Lan below again. Because the solid fuel main engine on the shuttle can only ignite once to send the shuttle back.

Return to low orbit.

Fortunately, Hou Peng's rich experience in space driving and solid training made every jump of the shuttle at the edge of Venus' atmosphere perfect. He finally entered the atmosphere of Venus at the right position. But at this moment, his speed was still very fast.

He manipulated the shuttle's movable wings to increase its flight angle, allowing her to decelerate faster.

When the shuttle reached the critical stall state, Hou Peng pressed a button on the console, and the protruding bulges on the wingtips of the shuttle popped open with a "bang!", and two huge gliders popped out of it.

umbrella.

Different from the round parachute in the landing bay, the one on the shuttle is a wing-shaped parachute. The parachute rope is controlled by a mechanical device in the wingtip bulge to adjust the flight attitude, allowing it to glide at low speed in the atmosphere of Venus. The display screen shows

The relative altitude and speed of the aircraft are ideal.

Hou Peng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he immediately became nervous when he saw the dark red wall of clouds in front of him, blocking out the sky and rushing toward him.
