Chapter 196

"What are you two talking about?"

After Zhang Wen walked over while panting.

He took off his helmet and asked.

"Nothing much."

"We were praising you!"

Director Yang said with a smile.

"Hahaha, I'm embarrassed."

Zhang Wen laughed.

"You two should put yours on too."

"Time is almost up."

Zhang Wen urged.

Subsequently, he took off his own spacesuit.

And started helping Director Yang and Zhu Xinghan put on their spacesuits.

It took a great deal of effort for Zhang Wen to get them both dressed.

Afterwards, Zhang Wen said: "Don't underestimate this thing."

"This thing is not cheap."

"One set costs two or three hundred million."

"Two or three hundred million?!"

"Is this suit made of gold?"

Zhu Xinghan said, dumbfounded after hearing this.

"What made of gold, where would you find something made of gold that cheap?"

Zhang Wen didn't even lift his head.

"Let me tell you, this thing can resist high and low temperatures and maintain a constant temperature environment inside."

"But the temperature can't be too high."

"If you jump down from space."

"The high temperature brought by atmospheric friction cannot be resisted."

Zhang Wen explained.

Subsequently, he hung a huge backpack on Zhu Xinghan's back.

"Equipped with this thing, you can truly jump down from space."

"Hmm?"

"Are you sure? I've been in the aerospace industry for half my life, and I've never heard of this thing."

Zhu Xinghan said skeptically.

"There are four parachutes inside this backpack."

"There is also a jet device at the bottom."

"There is a compressed oxygen tank inside the suit."

"Why wouldn't it work?"

Zhang Wen said.

"The moment you jump from space into Earth."

"You will be pulled toward the ground by gravity."

"The speed is very fast, so I configured four parachutes for you, all made of polymer nanomaterials; these four parachutes alone cost one hundred million."

"Three parachutes can decelerate you to a suitable speed."

"When you get close to the ground, use the jet device to decelerate."

"When you're almost there, open the fourth parachute."

"Just like skydiving, you'll land."

Zhang Wen said.

"The safety measures I've configured for us are much more than you imagine."

"Once you reach space, you'll have to swap the backpack for another one."

"It's filled with the gases necessary for survival and a propellantless thruster."

"That way, if we are accidentally thrown out."

"We can also rely on the propellantless thruster to return to the Kunpeng or our Tianguong Space Station."

"Prepare yourselves."

"We're about to take off."

Zhang Wen said.

"Okay."

Director Yang and Zhu Xinghan immediately sat in the cockpit chairs.

Zhang Wen helped them fasten their seatbelts.

In front of the cockpit was a large, specially made window.

But it was currently blocked by the fairing in front.

As the launch message was transmitted from the command center.

Zhang Wen also hurriedly sat in the pilot's seat.

Fastened his own seatbelt.

The voice of the command center came over the radio.

"Takeoff ignition preparation!"

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"Ignition!"

The rocket erupted with a huge flame.

And everyone sitting in the Kunpeng felt a violent jolt.

Then it slowly took off.

Ascending into the sky.

The rocket streaked across the sky with a blinding light.

As the Kunpeng flew to a certain altitude.

The cover of the side window fell off.

Allowing the people inside to see the situation outside.

Everyone looked out.

They saw the things on the ground getting smaller and smaller, gradually fading into spots of different colors.

The clouds also gradually became thinner.

Soon, the Kunpeng reached the Kármán line.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened from the familiar blue until it turned into a deep black.

The outline of the Earth appeared exceptionally clear against the black background.

The parts of the Earth's surface covered by clouds appeared white, the oceans were deep blue, and the land was green or brown of varying shades.

Zhang Wen could even see a soft halo of light appearing around the edge of the Earth.

The speed was getting faster and faster.

Flying directly out of the atmosphere.

Rushing into space.

After completely entering space, Zhang Wen saw a blue star suspended in the black universe; he could even clearly see the movement of clouds and the shape of the continents.

Zhang Wen looked up; space was pure black, and because there was no influence of atmospheric scattering, the stars became bright points of light, no longer twinkling.

He could even see the Moon orbiting the Earth.

But the Moon seen this way.

Was much larger than seen from Earth.

Everyone was immersed in the scenery of space.

Unable to extricate themselves.

Until Zhang Wen reminded them.

Only then did everyone wake up.

"Is this space?"

"It's truly beautiful."

Director Yang looked at the scenery outside the window, his eyes fixed, and said.

"We've reached space just like that?"

Zhu Xinghan was now doubting if something had gone wrong in the first half of his life.

It felt as if everything he had learned was invalidated.

"What about blackouts?"

Zhu Xinghan asked suspiciously.

"Blackouts?"

"Didn't we pass that stage long ago?"

Zhang Wen said.

Seeing that Zhu Xinghan was still shocked and hadn't recovered.

Zhang Wen sighed and said: "Blackouts are caused by the astronaut's acceleration overload and changes in the gravitational environment."

"Look here. Isn't our gravity normal right now?"

Zhang Wen took out his phone.

Put it in the air.

Let go of his hand.

The phone fell directly to the floor.

This scene simply made Zhu Xinghan collapse.

"You mean, this aircraft, oh, the Kunpeng, has gravity inside?"

"Yes." Zhang Wen stood up and unfastened Director Yang and Zhu Xinghan's seatbelts.

"Haven't I been saying that all along?"

"Why weren't you surprised then, but so surprised now?"

Zhang Wen was a bit curious.

Zhu Xinghan covered his head in a breakdown.

From within came the sound of his breakdown.

"I really didn't think you had actually developed it."

"That's because you didn't meet me earlier."

Zhang Wen said.

"By the way, we're all entering space for the first time."

"It would be a pity not to enjoy zero gravity."

"Kunpeng, turn off gravity."

Zhang Wen called out.

The Kunpeng's main computer immediately replied: "Understood, executing immediately."

Subsequently, the space inside the cockpit finally changed from half of normal Earth gravity to zero gravity.

Director Yang and Zhu Xinghan finally floated up.

"Hey!"

"Hey!!"

"Hey!!!"

Director Yang was also in a playful mood now.

Starting to float around the cockpit non-stop.

And Zhu Xinghan also temporarily gave up thinking about why Zhang Wen was so heaven-defying.

Starting to play around in the cockpit.

After a while.

The two were finally tired of playing.

Sitting in their chairs.

Asked Zhang Wen.

"Didn't you say this was a bomber?"

"No matter how I look at it, I feel like this is a space shuttle."

Director Yang suddenly thought of this.

Asked.

"Director Yang, how about."

"You look outside the window again?"

Zhang Wen asked back with a smile.

Director Yang floated from his seat to the window and looked outside.

Only to discover.
