786: C786 Launch of Rockets

C786 Launch of Rockets

West of Han Country, East Wind Sky City.

It was surrounded by deserts and deserts. It looked like a barren land. However, this Sky City was located in an oasis in the middle of the desert. Xiyi Mountain, Donglin River. It was a treasure land that Nie Shuai had personally picked back then.

This was the satellite launch base of Han Country, and it was also the largest city in Han Country.

As the earliest and largest satellite launch center in Han Country, it was also the comprehensive launch site for all kinds of rockets and aerial weather rockets. It had a complete and reliable launch facility. It could launch medium-low orbit satellites at a larger angle. In the later stages, it was also the only manned space launch site.

If it wanted to be a launch site, it naturally had its own unique advantage. It was an inland and desert climate. The terrain was flat and sparsely populated. It rained less every year and had a long day. There were about 300 days of launch tests every year.

It could be said that there was no need to wait for a launch window. They could fight whenever they wanted.

At the same time, since it was inland, it could make full use of the land aerospace control network that was thousands of kilometers away from the east and west. It had been more than 20 years since it was established in 1958. The entire base had a complete set of living facilities: technical security, communication control, railway transportation, and power generation. The conditions were very suitable for the launch of satellites and manned spacecraft.

Currently, the atmosphere in East Wind Aerospace City was very tense. On the launch platform outside, a carrier rocket was preparing to be launched.

This launch vehicle looked like a jujube core. It was sharp and long. It became thicker from top to bottom. The entire launch vehicle was white in color. At this moment, the five-level operating platform on it was slowly being released.

"The fuel has been added. The final self-examination begins."

This rocket used liquid power. Therefore, fuel must be poured in advance. At this time, the anti-chemical soldiers wearing gas masks... They are retreating from the launch tower, starting from the moment fuel is added... The rocket had entered an irreversible firing process.

In the control hall not far away, everyone was nervously staring at the big screen.

The operators kept reporting.

"[Program input normal]"

"[Bullet self-examination normal]"

"[Engine normal]"

As the voices came one by one, the atmosphere in the launch site became even more tense. The launch of the rocket was right in front of them.

"Launch in five minutes."

Each command was continuously transmitted.

A huge clock was hanging in front of him. There were only five minutes left before it would be 10 o'clock.

"Countdown of three minutes."

"Countdown of one minute."

In the control room of the launch site, the countdown had begun. When the countdown went from ten to zero, a password for ignition was heard.

The operator pressed the ignition button with his hand.

In an instant, the standing missile, under which were four engines, emitted a thick white smoke.

The partial dimethazid and nitrogen dioxide mixed into the engine combustion room and began to evaporate. Then, the white smoke suddenly turned into a hot flame and the ignition was successful!

The four engines began to burn. The rocket stopped on the ground launch platform for a second and the bullet started to buzz. Then, the rocket began to rise.

In the beginning, it did not climb very slowly. It could be seen with the naked eye, but as it continued to accelerate, it finally became faster and faster.

Thick smoke covered the entire launch platform, and nothing could be seen. The only thing that could be seen was the burning flames on the surface of the thick smoke, the upper part of the flame. It was the milky white rocket that was rapidly rising into the sky. Then, it disappeared from everyone's sight. Only the burning flame was left.

"Launch successful!"

Instantly, the base started boiling.2

Of course, just the successful ignition was not considered a successful launch. After continuing to climb upwards, exciting news came out one after another.

"Level 1 rockets are dropping normally."

"Level 2 ignition successful." This kind of rocket was a second-class rocket with a brand new engine design. At this time, when the second-class rocket was successfully ignited, it indicated that the launch was almost successful.

At this time, the rocket had already started to change direction, flying towards the eastern space. The various control stations in the eastern East Wind Space City kept sending good news to the flight control center in the launch site area. The loudspeaker kept shouting, "Good tracking!" "Work is normal!" " Flying is normal! "

Finally, the rocket left the land and entered the sea. The control station on the ground could no longer find any trace of it. The rocket only had the warhead left in front of it and started to fly according to the predetermined trajectory.

The remote control ships No. 1 and No. 2 were now working at full speed. The computer system was running at high speed, receiving the data from the ground control network and calculating the accurate trajectory.

The few large antennas in the middle of the control ships were also starting to stand up high. They pointed in the direction of the spacecraft. For them, they would follow it once. Only a few minutes, and for these few minutes... They had practiced for a long time.

At the same time, the salvage boat was also ready.

"Push the helicopter!"

Following the order, the super wasp helicopter was pushed out from the warehouse of the salvage ship. Lu Yunxing was dressed neatly and waiting for orders on the deck.

From where they were, they could see the Sheep Back Country warships not far away.

The warships of Sheep Back Country and the salvage ships had all been squeezed out. 18 warships of Han Country surrounded the city and firmly controlled the splash zone on their side.

However, when sailing on the sea, the distance between the ships was very large. At the same time, since they used helicopters to salvage the ships, there was still a risk.

For example, right now, on their side, there was a salvage ship of Sheep Back Country at the outer perimeter. When they saw their helicopter being pushed out, the helicopter of Sheep Back Country had also been pushed out.

The crew of Han Country stood beside the helicopter and waited for orders. Compared to them, the people of Sheep Back Country were much more free and at ease.

Currently, the pacific ocean was quite hot. These flight personnel were also very afraid of the heat. They did not pay attention to their clothing at all. In order to cool down, they took off the upper half of their body that was connected to the Flying Suit and hung it below the navel.

"Get on the plane!"

Following the orders from their superiors, Lu Yunxing and the rest of the flight crew boarded the helicopter and sat in their own seats.

When the foreign pilot saw them from afar, they hurriedly put on the Connecting Flying Suit and entered the cockpit. Then, they saw their propellers begin to spin.

They were really fast!

Lu Yunxing could not help but laugh in his heart. He turned on all the switch and prepared to take off. However, the engine at the top did not rotate at all.

This was half an hour of preparation. It was still far from taking off!
