Different from other launch vehicles, for Wu Hao and others, the successful launch of this Jianmu-7 is only half the success. The other half is that the first stage rocket and fairing of this rocket must land smoothly before it can be considered successful. All successful.

Of course, this Jianmu-7 did not have a fairing, so the first-stage rocket successfully landed, which became another focus of everyone's attention.

However, compared to this first-stage rocket, everyone is obviously more concerned about the flying second-stage rocket and the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft carried on it.

The flight continues, and now only a flickering bright spot can be seen in the telemetry signal. This is the tail flame ejected by the second-stage rocket. Technical experts rely on observing the flickering state of this tail flame to determine whether the rocket is operating normally.

A related digital demonstration screen appeared on the big screen, showing that the rocket had broken through the Karman line and was in flight. Now is the most critical moment in the entire rocket launch process, which is whether the secondary rocket and the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft can successfully separate.

Many rockets malfunctioned at this stage, including the self-developed rocket that the country had pinned its hopes on a few years ago. This was because the second-stage rocket failed to separate from the satellite it carried in time, ultimately leading to the launch failure.

In addition, after the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft separates from the secondary rocket, whether the solar panels can be opened normally is also a key node. Generally speaking, as long as the solar panel is deployed successfully, it means that the launch is a complete success.

Of course, exceptions are made under special circumstances, but this is only a rare occurrence.

The second stage rocket shuts down!

The ship and arrow are separated!

Bang bang bang bang...

At this time, whether it was on site or in the live TV broadcast, the excited crowd opposite the launch site, as well as the staff and Wu Hao in the Xinyuehu command and control hall, all applauded and cheered.

After being tense for so long, I can finally be released.

However, everyone was not excited for long, because the first stage rocket had also landed.

Through the surveillance camera on the sea landing platform, Wu Hao and the others could clearly see that the long tail flame of the first-stage rocket was getting closer and closer to the ground.

Through the surveillance camera on the observation ship about five or six hundred meters away from the landing platform at sea, you can clearly see that the first-stage rocket sprayed a long tail flame, fell from the sky, and then landed smoothly on the landing platform. .

The same scene was also completely captured by the surveillance cameras on the sea landing platform and the first-stage rocket.

good!

At this moment, the entire command and control hall became a sea of ​​joy. Everyone could no longer hold back and cheered and jumped.

While everyone was cheering, the big screen switched to the outside surveillance camera of the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft.

When the spaceship came down, we saw the earth in the middle of the night, and the lights of the city could be seen below. Judging from the terrain, the upper left corner should be the Japanese island. And a glimmer of light can be seen on the distant horizon.

But what everyone is paying attention to is not this charming and magnificent scenery, but the unfolding solar panels.

Applause rang out again, and Wu Hao also stood up, applauding and high-fiving others in celebration.

After celebrating, Wu Hao looked at the time, and then said to Zhang Jun and the others: "Let's go, it's getting late, go back and rest quickly."

Hearing Wu Hao's words, Zhang Jun, who was still excited, waved his hands and said: "I'm not going back. I'm just going to find a place to sleep here tonight and wait to dock with the space station tomorrow morning."

It's up to you, I'm going back! Wu Hao shook his head when he heard this, yawned, and then said goodbye to Zhang Jun and the others. Then he went home with Yang Fan. Compared to others, Yang Fan also seemed relatively calm. Maybe he had experienced too many such things.

After returning home, looking at Lin Wei who was already sleeping soundly, Wu Hao gently washed her face and then got into bed. Not long after he lay down, Lin Wei rolled over from the side and hugged him.

And asked in a hazy voice: "Why did you come back? Was the launch successful?"

It worked, and I came back as soon as it was over. Wu Hao smiled, hugged Lin Wei and said softly: "Go to sleep!"

Um! Lin Wei snuggled into his arms for a few moments and then fell into a deep sleep. Wu Hao, who was a little tired, also asked about Lin Wei's hair and fell asleep.

…

When I woke up, it was bright. Looking at the time, it was already past nine o'clock, and Lin Wei beside her had long since disappeared.

After freshening up and putting on clean home clothes, Wu Hao walked down and found Lin Wei standing in the living room staring at the big screen. On the big screen, there was a live broadcast about the docking of their Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft with the space station.

Seeing Wu Hao coming down, Lin Wei smiled and turned to say hello to him: "Morning, why don't you sleep a little longer? You came back so late last night."

morning! Wu Hao came down with a smile and said, "I can't sleep anymore. Have you started docking?"

It hasn’t started yet, right now! Lin Wei responded, and then said to Wu Hao: "I have prepared breakfast for you, go and eat it quickly."

Wu Hao smiled and nodded, then walked to the dining table, where there were steamed buns, tofu puffs, salad, and eggs and bacon.

Wu Hao carried the plate, walked to the living room, sat down, and then watched the live broadcast on the big screen.

Several experts inside were introducing the docking process and related news about the Walker 3 unmanned cargo experimental spacecraft.

As he was watching, Coco's voice came.

Sir, would you like to answer the call from Mr. Zhang Jun?

Come in. Wu Hao smiled slightly when he heard this, and then said.

OK, connected!

Then a small window appeared on the side of the big screen, inside it was Zhang Jun. He looked at Wu Hao and said excitedly: "Are you up? Where are you? We are about to dock. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuaｎ.com. Aren't you coming?" "

Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "I'm at home, just watch it. I watch it on TV the same way."

Come on, if there’s anything good to watch on TV, forget it. Zhang Jun showed a disappointed expression, then showed the hall and said to Wu Hao: "Okay, that's it, we are about to connect, hang up first!"

Immediately, Zhang Jun ended the call. Seeing this, Wu Hao shook his head slightly.

Lin Wei, on the other hand, laughed: "Didn't Fatty go home last night?"

Well, I said I wanted to watch the connection, so I just stayed in the company for the whole night. Wu Hao said with a smile.

Hearing this, Lin Wei smiled at him and said, "It was so late last night. In fact, you can rest in the company without going back. It's okay with me."

When Wu Hao heard this, he smiled at him and said, "I will definitely come back if I say I will come back. How could I let you guard the empty room alone?"

Tch, you came back and disturbed my rest. Lin Wei smiled at him.
