I Have 48 Hours a Day

Vol 2 Chapter 62: July 16th, that day is coming

If Zhang Heng remembers correctly, airpods' wireless Bluetooth headsets should be released in 2016.

Apollo's copy was in 1969. Seven years later, Steve Jobs co-founded Apple Computer with Steve Wozniak and Roe Wayne. As for Bluetooth technology, it was even later. Telecom giant Ericsson was created in 1994.

In other words, no matter how you look at the wireless Bluetooth headset of this airpods, it is not a product of this era.

So where is that guy named Einstein?

Obviously, the other party did not meet him because the life in Area 51 was too boring. He came to see the astronauts preparing to go to the moon, not to mention he did not go to Jiale and Bruno except Zhang Heng. Zhang Heng now even the other No engineer in Area 51 could be sure, let alone why the other party gave him this Bluetooth headset.

And the most important thing is that Einstein also gave only one earphone for the left ear.

But even so, Zhang Heng put it together with those other game props.

Because the entire moon landing mission will last eight days, and Zhang Heng's remaining copy time is not so long, that is to say, when the copy is over, he will most likely not return to the earth, so he must also do well in advance Preparation for packaging.

Fortunately, nasa allows astronauts to bring a small amount of personal items into space, but they need to be listed on the list.

During the quarantine period, Zhang Heng also had visitors. The captain also returned to the space center four days after the sandstorm, and also brought back the results of the initial search and rescue.

After a three-day and three-night joint search of Area 51 and nasa, Jale's body has been found, confirming that the latter died of asphyxiation by sand and dust, but the other person is still missing.

This sudden dust storm moved millions of tons of sand hundreds of kilometers away, and this sand is enough to cover all traces of biological activities. Coupled with the desert's unique high temperature and dryness, it also makes search and rescue work extremely difficult.

However, the captain stated that the search would continue until Bruno's body was found.

In fact, no one believed that Bruno could survive. The people in the press office informed the media of this unfortunate news. President Nixon also expressed his condolences for the candidate lost in the training camp. The only survivor spoke briefly.

In addition, because of this accident, Zhang Heng failed to catch up with the press conference before the moon landing.

But it was not a bad thing for him.

Although this is not the first time he has dealt with the media, but with his almost blank family and background, he also does not like to be bombarded by reporters. Besides, unlike Armstrong and Collins, he is ultimately only one for this world. Passing passengers, Zhang Heng only cares about whether he can complete the main task, and he doesn't care if he is famous.

…………

After a six-day quarantine period, Zhang Heng adjusted his physical and mental state to make the final preparations for landing on the moon. Before that, he has also cleared all threats and obstacles in front of him as much as possible. Everything he can do, but even so, it is still a journey full of danger and unknown to him.

Time soon arrived on July 16.

Eight years of preparation time (from the implementation of the Apollo plan), the efforts of 400,000 people, the tens of billions of dollars, the top scientists and engineers in the United States to overcome technical difficulties day and night ... basically represents a country in peacetime Provide the maximum input, and all of this is to welcome the day.

On this day, the whole world has focused their attention on the Kennedy Space Center, waiting to witness together the great journey of human beings leaving their planet for the first time to explore another world.

Armstrong, Collins, and Zhang Heng woke up from bed at four in the morning, dressed neatly, packed their personal belongings, and had a final farewell with family and friends, and then took a black Lincoln to the space center in Canavera Cape 39a launch base.

Here they ate their last breakfast on the earth, and then the staff put on the a7l spacesuit for the mission, and finally put on a round fish tank helmet to ensure that everyone is neatly dressed. And in good condition.

In the process, two or three photographers were always with them, pressing the shutter on them.

Honestly, this feeling is not very good, especially the clicking sound of the shutters, as if they are performing some weird ritual, and the three of them are sacrifices in the ritual. Some representatives from the White House are here, shaking hands with them one by one, each person's expression is dignified.

It must be acknowledged that it was indeed a very miracle that the three people on the Apollo 11 were still able to return to the earth successfully under such full conditions.

Fortunately, this process did not take too long. As everything was ready, the ground control center also issued instructions to the spacecraft.

Armstrong took the lead and pushed open the door of the equipment room.

At this time, the staff of the launch base who had completed the work at hand stood on the corridor spontaneously, applauding the three, and wished them a smooth journey, and the media reporters had already waited outside the gate for a long time. Set up a spear and a short cannon, the three of them appeared and were immediately captured by the lens. The magnesium light also began to flash madly. Everyone was scrambling to leave a historic moment with the camera in their hands.

However, the three did not stay too much under the camera like the Hollywood stars on the red carpet. They just waved to the long-awaited reporters ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and got into the van that nasa prepared for them. Here, head towards the mobile launch platform.

Prior to this, Zhang Heng had been fortunate enough to have seen the assembled Saturn 5 launch vehicle, a behemoth with a cost of 185 million US dollars (more than 1 billion US dollars today), designed by Werner von Braun The record of being the most powerful rocket for mankind has been maintained for 50 years.

The total height of the rocket is 110.6 meters, surpassing the Statue of Liberty in New York. The weight of the rocket reaches a staggering 2,883,900 kg. The spacecraft assembly building built to assemble it and the Apollo spacecraft was completed in 1966, and it remains to this day. It is the world's largest single-single-space building. The four doors to each area are 139 meters high. It only takes 45 minutes to open or close once.

The Saturn V rocket was pulled to the launch site a few days ago.

At night, the Saturn 5 carrier rocket fixed on a mobile launch platform looks like a great sword made by the gods.

Looking up from below, it is hard not to be shocked by the crystallization of the highest level of human science and technology.
