Question 1526 Jump (Part 1)

"Ah!" Following Chu Fei's long exclamation, Guo Tailai jumped down from the tail hatch of the transport plane with Chu Fei.

Chu Fei doesn't know how to skydive at all, but she trusts Fatty very much. Tandem skydiving can be done by an experienced skydiving instructor leading a novice to jump together, allowing the novice to experience the feeling of skydiving. During the whole process, all the most important procedures are undertaken by the tandem parachute coach, and the experiencer does not need to do any operations, just enjoy the fun of free fall.

Now Guo Tailai is the experienced skydiving instructor, and Chu Fei is the experiencer. She only needs to simply learn some body postures in the air and pay attention, and Guo Tailai will handle everything else.

Through the strap system, the two were connected in series, and the moment they leaped into the air, it was the first time that Chu Fei felt such a long free fall. The exciting and fresh feeling immediately made her scream.

The weather was fine, and Guo Tailai's skills were superb, so he had no problem jumping with Chu Fei. At the same time, two experienced videographers jumped down. They were responsible for taking pictures of Guo Tailai and Chu Fei in the air. Of course, the focus is on Chu Fei. The filmed material will be edited and broadcast on Fox TV. At the same time, a wave of "Terminator 3" will be promoted. The beautiful female robot will fall from the sky. There is always a gimmick.

After Chu Fei screamed for a while, she was not afraid at all, and all that was left was excitement. With her own fat man behind her, Chu Fei was not afraid of anything.

This was Chu Fei's first skydive, and it was so exciting and exciting. The different scenery in the sky and the whistling wind, with the long-term weightlessness, are extremely novel and exciting.

The skydiving club arranged by Little Finn is good, but after testing Guo Tailai's skydiving skills once, he no longer worries about his skydiving skills. The next few jumps were all taken by Guo Tailai to let Chu Fei experience different heights. You can still complete the propaganda work, and at the same time, the two of you can be together. What a great opportunity to fake public affairs for personal gain?

Later, Chu Fei dared to openly kiss Guo Tailai in the free fall. Under the background of blue sky and white clouds, she enjoyed the intimate closeness of the two without restraint, it was like heaven.

It's a pity that the wonderful tandem skydive only took two or three days. After another day of rest, Chu Fei returned to work.

Of course, Guo Tailai devoted himself to the preliminary preparations for space skydiving as a matter of course.

In fact, super high-altitude skydiving has been played a long time ago. As early as 1960, a U.S. Air Force colonel set a free fall record of 102,800 feet (31,300 meters). However, strictly speaking, this altitude has not yet reached the stratosphere, and is still within the troposphere. So it can't be said to be a real space skydiving.

What Guo Tailai wants to challenge is the real stratospheric space skydiving at an altitude of over 40,000 meters.

Stratosphere balloons? This thing is ready-made. Meteorological observations and experiments have used this kind of balloon many times to send equipment to the stratosphere for measurement. NASA’s Ultra Long Duration Balloon (Ultra Long Duration Balloon) has been successfully tested in 2000, so Guo Tailai can be sure that this thing You can take it and use it. If one balloon is not enough, several are tied together, which is very easy.

It is not difficult to pressurize the pod, just wrap it with glass fiber and epoxy resin, and add some metal skeleton to ensure strength and airtightness. If you find all these materials, Guo Tailai can make one by himself. The main purpose is to maintain normal air pressure and temperature during the lift-off process. After all, the lift-off process may last for several hours. It is more comfortable to have this thing in high-altitude low-temperature and low-pressure conditions for a long time.

The skydiving suit has relatively high requirements, because it needs to be dropped at high altitude for at least five minutes, so it must also have the function of pressurized heat preservation and oxygen supply. At the same time, because it will break through the sound barrier, the high-speed friction temperature will increase, so it must also have heat insulation and flame retardancy. Features. Sounds complicated, but that's what spacesuits are for! All I need is a custom-made space suit that is lighter and can move freely. In one month, the US dollars are enough, and several sets can be made by working overtime.

You don't even need to use that pressurized pod if the suit fits right. The spacesuit itself can have the functions of heat preservation, pressurization and oxygen supply. But since it can be done, Guo Tailai decided to make himself more comfortable.

High-strength parachutes are also readily available. The drogue parachute of the recovery module of the manned spacecraft can hold things weighing several tons when it lands from a higher place, and it is still very easy to ensure that Guo Tailai, who weighs more than 100 kilograms, will land.

The rest is easy. The communication equipment is ready-made; the high-definition camera is ready-made; all the equipment for measuring altitude and speed are also ready-made; in addition, the ground monitoring equipment during the whole process, including observation equipment and equipment for detecting Guo Tailai's physical condition are also ready-made , This thing is commonly used when astronauts take off and land. It can be said that NASA has all these things.

Little Finn can solve the communication with NASA, Guo Tailai can pay, and he is in the United States, and will not leave with his things. So, after some simple communication, NASA took a check with several zeros and happily accepted the invitation, and as the technical supporter of this project, took over all preparations for this space activity by Guo Tailai and orders for technical support and logistical support during the skydiving process.

Several NASA experts quickly formulated a plan to place orders for various equipment manufacturers, monitor the weather conditions at the same time, calculate a suitable challenge date, and send Guo Tai to an astronaut training center for a week-long training.

Not surprisingly, Guo Tailai's healthy and strong physical fitness has been greatly appreciated by NASA's medical department. Such physical fitness is more than enough to directly become an astronaut.

Little Finn accompanied him all the way, even if Guo Tailai was undergoing astronaut training, he would accompany him as well, making him a very good friend. Of course, Little Finn is just a training partner, he will not follow Guo Tailai to complete all the training items, and he does not dance.

However, the medical department of NASA is very satisfied with the physical condition of little Finn. There is no problem in his whole body. He is simply a born astronaut! Unfortunately, his identity is impossible to become an astronaut.

When Guo Tailai and Little Finn were happily receiving training, a substation in the Great Lakes District tripped, followed by a chain reaction, causing a power outage. Unfortunately, the bad power grid situation was hit by Guo Tailai.

The combined power grids in the Northeast, Midwest and Eastern Canada of the United States were completely paralyzed, and there were large-scale power outages, affecting eight states including New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Ohio, Michigan, Vermont and Massachusetts. More than 100 power plants, including 22 nuclear power plants, tripped in four states and Canada's two provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

It is said that the United States and Canada have blackouts!
