Monster Factory - 1069

“The wind is eleven knots, and it continues to slow down.”

“The optical tracking station is in preparation, and the weather is good and it meets the conditions for optical tracking.”

“The rocket signal is normal, and the telemetry signal is normal.”

“Attention all departments, the countdown is 20 minutes.”

As each piece of information entered the launch command center, more than 20 staff members in front of Ye Qing also became nervous and busy.

Affected by the atmosphere here, even Ye Qing couldn’t help but straighten up.

All departments are in working condition, and everything is normal, the commander-in-chief Chen Fangli has become a little relaxed at this moment.

He picked up the thermos cup with the red words “Shenzhou Spacecraft Launching Success Commemoration” on the front and sipped a sip of strong tea, and then said to Ye Qing in a relaxed tone, “Mr. Ye, if you look at the Long March’s top three launch records. We are this time The probability of a successful rocket launch is at least 70%.”

“The remaining 30% is not a failure of the launch, but just a few minutes before the launch, we suddenly encountered a weather change, or work conditions between various departments, which caused all preparations to be overturned and restarted.”

“Then we had to delay the launch time and wait for the next window.”

“The probability of irreversible failure of a real rocket is less than 1%.”

Ye Qing showed an unobvious smile, waved his hand and said, “Command Chen, I’m not worried about the Rockets.”

“We know that the Changsanjia rocket has been launched, and so far there has been no major situation.”

“I am actually worried about our satellite…”

Commander-in-chief Chen Fangli was stunned for a while, and it took a while before he realized what Ye Qing was worried about. “It doesn’t matter, Mr. Ye, wait until the satellite is successfully sent into space. Our command center will take over all the posture adjustment problems of this satellite.”

“Then I will work hard on Command Chen, and the staff.” Ye Qing did not express his worries about hardware problems. Anyway, the satellite has been mounted on the rocket at the moment, so I can only let it go.

After a while.

Countdown, go in for ten minutes to prepare.

Everything is developing in a good direction, all departments are testing normally, and the data is normal. The wind at the launch site also weakened from eleven knots to around eight knots.

Although Jiuquan Aviation Base is dry and drier all year round, the latitude and longitude position is very suitable for launching satellites.

But here is located in the Gobi, where wind and sand are relatively heavy all year round. It often takes only more than ten minutes to wait until a launch window. In the past ten minutes, if the rocket cannot be launched smoothly, it is impossible to wait for the next window, and it will take a few days.

For a successful launch, meticulous inspection work is the key, and luck is also the key.

Good luck today.

When the countdown entered five minutes before preparation, the weather conditions also just entered the best launch conditions.

At this time, Ye Qing had already brought Yun Shi to the media studio upstairs.

There is a huge sealed French window here, which is aimed at the distant launcher. There are also multiple screens on the wall, you can see the details of the rocket on the launcher.

After Ye Qing set up a small camera, the commander’s sonorous voice came from the speaker.

“Prepare in one minute.

Countdown.

50!

40!

…”

Entering thirty seconds, Ye Qing walked into the observation window, Yun Shi followed behind, hiding behind Ye Qing with some fear. No one can predict what kind of momentum the rocket that is more than 50 meters high in the distance will erupt when it enters the ignition.

“5…4…3…2…”

With one second left in the countdown, the commander-in-chief Chen Fangli took the order and shouted: “Fire.”

The atmosphere was tense at this moment to its limit, and the air seemed to freeze in this second, and then suddenly exploded in the next second.

The launch tower was instantly surrounded by strong white smoke, and dazzling fireballs gushed from the bottom of the rocket and rushed into the sky. During a breath, the whole world vibrated violently, as if there were twenty turbine engines at full thrust outside the observation window.

“Boom~Boom~”

The dense smoke soared up to a hundred meters high, so that the entire Longsanjia rocket was concealed. Before this earth-shattering and shocking scene, any creature will become extremely vulnerable.

Yun Shi shrank behind Ye Qing tremblingly, and Ye Qing’s heart was violently shocked and surging, until the pure white Longsanjia rocket rushed out of the smoke.

Twenty-storey objects rose from the ground, blasting from the tail like a sword of burning white flames, like a mountain whistling like a tsunami, straight into the sky.

The sound barrier was quickly broken.

Then came double the speed of sound, triple the speed of sound, five times, seven times…

The sky was torn and trembling.

The commander seemed to shout some password, but it was no longer able to hear it in the shooting room.

Ye Qing couldn’t hear what it was until the rocket rushed to a height of more than ten kilometers.

“Jiuquan, the tracking signal is normal, and the telemetry signal is normal.”

“Jiuquan, the optical tracking is normal.”

“Radar tracking is normal.

Two minutes later, the momentum left by Changsanjia completely disappeared, only the sound of information gathered by various observation stations every 30 seconds.

Ye Qing came back to the command center. At this time, the commander-in-chief Chen Fangli had no time to say hello to Ye Qing. He could only turn his head back and smile quickly, and then quickly turned his head and stared at the information wall in front of him.

“Jiuquan, the rocket’s posture is normal.”

“Jiuquan, Taiyuan radar station found the target.”

“Jiuquan, enter the first level of the arrow body separation.”

“The radar found the target, the first-stage rocket body was successfully separated, and the second-stage engine was successfully ignited.”

“The tracking signal is normal, and the telemetry signal is normal.”

“Jiuquan, throw the fairing.”

“The radar found the target, and the fairing was separated successfully.

“The secondary host is shut down, and Star and Arrow are ready for separation.

In the vast universe beyond the atmosphere, the long three-piece rocket that rose from a desolate land has changed from a huge streamlined body of more than 50 meters to the current tens of meters long, and the engine and All kinds of pipes are exposed.

The front end of the arrow body is a golden yellow irregular square object.

A stream of pure white air flow silently ejected from the junction of the two objects, and then the golden yellow object moved toward the farther and deeper dark starry sky. The arrow body that carried the last journey stopped weakly and slowly fell towards the blue planet below.

“Star and Arrow separated successfully.”

“Star and Arrow separated successfully.”

The commander shouted twice in a row, and in his solemn tone, there was an excitement that could not be concealed.

“Success!”

I didn’t know anyone in the command room yelled, and then all the sitting staff stood up.

There are smiles on their faces. Although there is no hugging and celebrating in the movie, the atmosphere in the whole hall is not much worse than in the movie.

Yun Shi kept applauding, smiling like a flower, “Boss, we succeeded.”

Ye Qing and Commander-in-Chief Chen Fangli shook hands with each other to celebrate, and their tense mood eased to a large extent with the successful launch of the rocket.

Ye Qing turned his head and said, “We only succeeded in the first step.”

Commander-in-chief Chen Fangli also nodded, “Yes, only the rocket has been successfully launched at the moment, and there is still a second step to be done.”

The second step is to send the satellite into a predetermined orbit and activate it successfully.

The celebration didn’t last long, and the staff quickly became busy again.

After dozens of minutes, it flew to the satellite in the scheduled orbit, ignited the small booster engine, began to accelerate around the predetermined angle, and did the final sprint work.

At this time, the satellite in the depths of the starry sky, while sprinting, began to spray small air currents from several angles, making fine-tuning of its posture more precisely.

It must be fully anchored on the synchronous orbit with an attitude of no difference.
