At 9:09 a.m. on July 21, the Progress Yao-6 manned mission was a complete success.

Outside the Xinyuan Space Launch Site, more than 100,000 people gathered here, watching a small white dot on the horizon getting bigger and bigger, before finally landing smoothly and starting to taxi.

The emergence of the space shuttle changed a lot, and landing was an important part of it.

In the past, when the Shenzhou spacecraft landed, the bell-shaped return capsule only landed in a general area. Search and rescue personnel needed to call continuously after the spacecraft crossed the ionosphere, drive helicopters, and guide the convoy to run around on the prairie of SZWQ, even if the return capsule was found. .

With the space shuttle, the place of return is fixed, and personnel can stay outside the airport to watch without any worries. Anyway, there is no confidentiality involved.

Therefore, in order to welcome the first man in space to return safely again, a considerable crowd gathered around the launch site.

Progress taxied on the runway for a full 1,800 meters before stopping. The ground personnel who had been waiting for it swarmed forward, but did not directly approach the outer shell of the space shuttle.

The heat-insulating layer that had just passed through the atmosphere at a speed of tens of Mach was now at a minimum temperature of more than 100 degrees on the surface. It was obviously not a wise choice to put your hands directly on it.

In order to prevent astronauts from waiting for a long time in the cockpit to cool down, the hatch is designed to have both electric and manual modes. Under normal circumstances, the control port next to the hatch is opened and the electronic valve is pulled down to open the door.

The anxious staff opened the hatch as quickly as possible, and a stream of air leaked out from the gap within a few seconds.

A group of staff stared nervously inside the cabin door, just like they did thirteen years ago, fearing that what they saw was a scene of hell.

70 seconds after the Progress stopped, as the hatch opened, people saw a tough smiling face.

Li Wei held the helmet with the visor open in his left hand and stood upright behind the hatch.

Compared to being lifted off in a wheelchair, Li Wei, who felt that he was in good physical condition, unbuckled his seat belt and tried to stand up after landing. He found that he was not as weak as he had imagined, so he simply stood at the door of the cabin on his own. Wait for the staff outside to open the hatch.

Outside the hatch, there are people in white and blue overalls and photographers with cameras on their shoulders.

When people saw Li Wei standing with a helmet in his hand, they were a little surprised and overwhelmed at first, and then they felt great joy.

Li Wei walked to the cabin door and waved outside, and then he was surrounded by excited crowds and was surrounded by applause wherever he went.

The camera followed his face throughout the whole process, and there was no cut on the corner of his mouth by the microphone thirteen years ago. Every part that could be seen was intact, and there was no sign of any injury at all.

The spacesuit inside the cabin was still a bit heavy for Li Wei, but he was also very excited at this time. He ignored the discomfort of returning to gravity again and naturally took the noodles in the porcelain bowl.

It’s not just the tradition of dumplings on the train and noodles on the train, although now the Tiangong Space Station is no longer the time of Shenzhou 5. The latter only has snacks and a little coffee, and the former even has fresh lettuce to eat.

But steaming noodles are still not available on the space station, at least not in a bowl with chopsticks, let alone a sip of noodle soup.

The scene of Li Wei holding noodles with a happy face was faithfully recorded by the camera, and he didn't realize that something was wrong for a long time.

A few minutes later, the photographer suddenly remembered how to turn the camera to point in the direction of Progress.

Hu Dong supported Lin Ju, and the two unlucky guys abandoned by the commander and the ground stood alone under the hatch, consciously preparing to quietly walk away.

World Famous Painting: The Progress astronauts returned safely, but with only one command.

In order not to embarrass themselves in front of the whole country, Lin Ju and others returned to the space shuttle to record the scene of leaving the cabin again. The three people walked down the gangway with smiles on their faces.

But this was the scene that was broadcast at night. The landing in the morning was also broadcast live. Almost 100 million people saw the truth of the matter.

That day, the top trending search was: "Li Wei returned safely from space and walked out of the space shuttle."

The next person who was ranked first was: "Director Lin: I'm leaving then?"

Photos of Lin Ju and Hu Dong, who were overwhelmed by no one to greet them, were taken and widely circulated. When enlarged, you can still see the confused expression on the former's face, which became the hottest topic of discussion that night.

“The winner between the first person in space and the first person in private spaceflight has been decided.”

"It turns out there is a difference between a tractor factory manager and a bomber pilot."

"Can't you care about Deputy Commander Hu Dong? He's also working very hard, right?"

"When will Director Lin forward the lottery to send people to heaven?"

"..."

In the evening, Lin Ju browsed Weibo on his ARJ21 plane and looked through netizens’ comments, which he found quite interesting.

Lin Ju, who had just come down from space and was still unsatisfied, thought about creating a lottery and then posted a new Weibo post:

"Follow and repost this Weibo post, and 5 Steadfast tickets will be randomly distributed. Each ticket is worth 88,888,888. The results will be announced after 24 hours. The tickets can be resold."

As soon as Weibo was posted, the comment area was pulled down to refresh, and hundreds of comments filled the screen.

Every netizen who saw it only had time to finish reading the content before hurriedly forwarding it, and then returned to Weibo to leave a message.

Netizen A: "I declare that Director Lin is my father!"

Netizen B: "Isn't this better than the Welfare Lottery? A boat ticket can be resold for 100 million. This is real welfare!"

Netizen C: "A Weibo worth more than 400 million, Director Lin is so domineering!"

CASA: "666"

"..."

Browsing through the comments, Lin Ju felt that he had made another contribution to the human space industry.

He has not forgotten the long-term mission of "Flying Higher". Occasionally, he randomly selects people to go on a tour to check his progress.

A few minutes after sending it, his Huawei P9 PLUS rang.

The latest Huawei model now uses a type-C charging port and 18w fast charging. The only criticism is that the 5.5-inch screen does not look as good as the later full-screen models, but it is still very good in this era.

This generation of mobile phones is already equipped with HiSilicon's Kirin 955 chip, and its performance is similar to Qualcomm Snapdragon 810, which is not bad.

However, the next generation of Kirin 960 chip or 970 should be different from history.

"Hello?"

"Boss, what great tasks have you completed?"

"??"

Listening to Guo Shen's words, Lin Ju was a little confused and asked subconsciously:

"What's wrong?"

Guo Shen: "A great master has come to our base, a super master. Don't you look at the list of senior engineers in the institute?"

Lin Ju thought for a long time before he recalled that he summoned a legendary version of the A+ grade engineer when he entered space. At that time, the system stated that it would take no more than 15 days to arrive. Is it just right now?

Before he could open the system panel in his mind, Guo Shen's excited voice sounded on the phone:

"It's Korolev, Sergei Palofevich Korolev!"
