Chapter 202 Read all the beauty of the world

July 10, Director Lin’s fifth day in space.

On the 7th, 8th, and 9th, Lin Ju became completely familiar with the Tiangong Space Station and quickly adapted to the weightless life.

His physical condition is also very good. Except for his face being a little swollen due to the loss of gravity in his blood, he still feels very comfortable and all his indicators are completely normal.

In the past three days, Lin Ju posted 11 consecutive Weibo posts, all of which were photos he took on the space station. He greatly envied many netizens and at the same time, his number of fans increased.

Moreover, I was approved to legally open accounts on Twitter and INS, but they were not banned.

Twitter is still in the hands of Jack Dorsey. Jack Dorsey is not yet the richest man in the world, so he cannot change the name of the little blue bird to X.

He copied and pasted the content he posted on Weibo and posted it on Twitter. He received more interactions than in China. Even Ao Xiaohei retweeted his post.

Other organizations as aerospace companies also actively interacted with each other. Jeff Bezos left a message asking him what he thought of the New Glenn rocket. Ma Yilong posted a few imaginary pictures of starships landing on Mars. @Lin Ju asked for praise, and NACA released a new Artemis also wanted to look at XAP and Lin Ju himself when designing the logo.

Lin Ju was active for three days, and then tweeted last night that he would conduct an out-of-vehicle event on July 8 and had no live broadcast plans.

As soon as the news came out, his comment section was full of lamentations. Everyone strongly condemned Director Lin's inhumane behavior and begged him to post more photos and videos.

Lin Ju, Deng Lei, and Li Wei were in the spacious transition cabin, waiting for the pressure to be released.

They were wearing extravehicular spacesuits with red stripes, which were much thicker than the in-cabin version. Even the wide transition module of the Tianhe core module could only accommodate the three of them to move freely.

Deng Lei stood next to the airbrake switch and waited until the air pressure showed zero and the indicator light turned green, then he put his hand on the switch.

"Check the status of the spacesuit again, you can leave the cabin soon!"

Lin Ju heard the sound through the radio and raised his left hand to look at the comprehensive monitoring meter. Everything from the space suit to the human body was in good condition. The battery and oxygen in the life-sustaining backpack were full and could last up to 8 hours.

The same was true for Li Wei. Deng Lei checked them again, pulled the safety rope to confirm that it was fixed, and then pressed the button.

Lin Ju and Li Wei raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the hatch through the thick glass cover.

The hatch opened smoothly, revealing the true view of space.

Lin Ju suddenly felt a little scared. At this time, the distance between him and space was only 5 centimeters: this was the distance from his face to the outer surface of the hood.

The hood of the extravehicular spacesuit is a high-tech technology. There are 14 layers of materials inside and outside, and there is a gap between the two layers for vacuuming. The price of this transparent mask alone is extremely high.

Once there is a problem with this mask, the human body exposed to the vacuum is like a slug entering a pile of salt, as fragile as a piece of wet straw paper.

Only then did Lin Ju understand how much courage Alexey Leonov, the first man to walk in space, needed to climb out of the airlock.

Spaceflight is truly an adventure.

Li Wei and Deng Lei were not idle when his thoughts were divergent. Li Wei gently exerted force on his feet, and his whole body floated out towards the opened circular hatch. Deng Lei carefully supported his body, little by little. Send Li Wei out.

Due to the difference in air pressure between the inside and outside, the spacesuits will expand under the pressure, causing their movements to be a bit stiff, so the movements of the two people look awkward.

When Li Wei poked his head out of the hatch, the first thing he saw was the stars.

Due to the choice of the time to leave the cabin, the Tiangong Space Station is currently on the back side of the earth and is not exposed to sunlight.

Although Li Wei had seen stars in space before, he had never felt so beautiful and shocking.

At this time, he was holding the handle outside the space station. In his eyes, the universe was like a huge bowl. There were stars shining everywhere on the bottom and walls of the bowl. They were so small, but there were so many, giving people a sense of wonder. A huge sense of inclusion.

In the face of this kind of tolerance, distance and time lose their meaning, and it is easy for people to have the illusion that the starry sky is right in front of them.

But the Milky Way that almost ran through his field of vision told him that this place was tens of millions of light-years away from the center of the universe. The longest distance that humans could travel was less than a basic unit: light-years.

The universe silently displays its glory with its vastness all the time.

"Li Wei? Li Wei?"

Deng Lei's voice woke him up from the visual shock. Li Wei came to his senses and helped pull Lin Ju up, and then Deng Lei climbed out skillfully.

Lin Ju was a little confused when he actually entered space for the first time, but fortunately with the help of two experienced astronauts, he quickly adapted to space.

The three people were floating outside the core cabin, but their postures were in a mess, and Lin Ju was completely upside down.

What Li Wei saw was the starry sky, while he was lying on his stomach staring at the earth.

The Tiangong Space Station is now over Africa and is about to enter the Arabian Sea.

The famous East African Rift Valley is just below. This natural wonder known as the "Scar of the Earth" is quite spectacular even from space.

There was once a very famous rumor that the Great Wall could be seen from space.

This is of course a rumor. In fact, it is impossible to see any human structures from a height of 400 kilometers. Only natural scenery can be so magnificent.

Overlooking the land from here, it's like looking at a map sandbox with huge details, giving people an unreal feeling.

Lin Ju felt suffocated when he thought of more than 7 billion humans living on the land beneath him.

"Captain Li, Director Lin, how does it feel to enter space!"

Deng Lei was already out of the cabin for the third time. He knew how shocking the scenery he saw during the out-of-vehicle activity was, so he did not disturb the two of them immediately. It took several minutes before he called on the radio.

Lin Ju suddenly remembered a few lines of poetry and immediately said them:

"I was born in Kunlun, and I saw all the beauty of spring in the world. Now that I have seen the whole earth, does it count as seeing all the beauty of spring in the world?"

Li Wei: "If the world is under your feet, then the starry sky is in the sky. In ancient times, it was said that the sky is where gods live. I did not see the gods or palaces, but with our own efforts, we built a palace in the sky that belongs to the Chinese people. Heavenly Palace.”

Li Wei and Lin Ju's first out-of-vehicle activities were held at the same time. There was no live broadcast, only a short video was played.

But when they were leaving the cabin, they forgot about Tiangong Space Station's year-round uninterrupted extravehicular live broadcast. One of the cameras happened to capture the three people leaving the cabin, showing the world their disorderly drifting scene, and then titled it The name "Director Lin's private photos" became popular...
