Nine Hundred and Thirty Seventh Low-Rail Dock

After more than an hour, the train finally stopped.

Suspiciously, Luo Qi stood up with his arms propped up, stepping on the pile of vines and jumping twice, he didn't feel the light weightlessness at all, it was actually similar to the gravity on the ground.

After thinking about it for a while, he understood the reason, and couldn't help laughing: "That's too far away." It's sure that you won't lose weight if you don't reach the synchronous orbit, that's all right.

Ye Han also stood up: "Let's go, stop talking nonsense."

The door opens...Because of the change in orientation, the door opened left and right when getting in the car, but now it opens up and down. There is an airtight door outside the door that opens left and right. The two doors open at the same time, and there is an expanding square in the middle.

A group of people stepped out of the car, and immediately found several guys in power armor standing on the platform outside the door.

Seeing Ye Han come out, the captain in the lead hurriedly stood at attention and saluted: "Hi, sir, I'm Tang Bei."

They are the staff of the low-gauge terminal. The distance between the two parties is only more than 200 kilometers, but one is in the sky and the other is on the ground. They have only contacted in the communication.

Ye Han returned the salute, and stretched out his right hand after the salute: "Hello."

Tang Bei was flattered, and quickly shook hands with Ye Han: "The spaceship is ready and ready to go at any time."

Ye Han was very pleased: "Okay, please take us there."

"This way please!" Tang Bei led the way, Ye Han followed behind with a group of men, and everyone looked around curiously.

The low-gauge pier is much bigger than expected. After the train exits, there is a small fan-shaped square. At the end of the square, there is a metal bulkhead for a closed space, and there are also large floor-to-ceiling portholes, through which you can see the vast starry sky outside.

And there are two types of portholes, one is a layer of aerospace glass, and the other has a reflector on the outside, so you can see the cables under the low-orbit pier and Jupiter.

Looking back, everyone was amazed again.

Luo Qi suddenly grinned and said, "Brothers, do you think this car stabbed a chrysanthemum at the pier?"

The soldiers were taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

The shape of the low-gauge dock is similar to that of the ground station, both of which look like oversized diving bells. The center of the dock is hollow and divided into more than ten floors from top to bottom. Corresponds to a carriage.

In other words, the platform of the sky train is not the in-line type on the ground, but the vertical type from top to bottom.

The procedure for the docking of the sky train is as follows. When the train is about to arrive at the low-gauge dock, the docking signal will be issued in advance. The dock will close all the airlocks in the docking area and open the main airlock in the center of the bottom.

The train drills into the wharf from below, and after it is fully drilled into the wharf, it is locked with a locking device. Then, the main airlock under the wharf can be opened to unload after the air pressure is equalized.

This form is indeed a bit like **, and it is self-enclosed, but the North Capital will never care what it looks like when the train enters the orbit, they only care about the practicality of the low-gauge dock.

Ouyang Ping gave Luo Qi a punch with a smile: "Are you overwhelmed?"

Luo Qi laughed out loud, not ashamed but proud.

Ye Han in front also laughed for a while, and shook his head helplessly.

Tang Bei said with a smile: "Some people here also say the same thing. They also talk about the wharf, the broken chrysanthemum train and so on. I guess it won't take long for this joke to spread throughout the fleet."

Ye Han asked with a smile, "How does this place feel?"

"Very good!" Tang Bei said, "With gravity, it's no different from the ground. I'm used to it."

While talking, everyone walked to the side of the square, and went down a few more stairs through the airtight door. A small airport appeared in front of everyone's eyes. More than a dozen transport boats were parked on the pier, neatly arranged in an arc.

Tang Bei pointed to the No. 1 boat and said, "Sir, we only have No. 1 passenger boat here, and the conditions are limited. Please bear with me."

Ye Han waved his hand: "What are you waiting for, this is not bad, if there is no it, you have to sit on the cargo boat as long as you have it."

Tang Bei pressed a switch, the boat door opened automatically, and he made another gesture of invitation: "Chief, the pilot hasn't come yet,

Do you get on the boat first or wait a little longer? "

"Get on the boat first." After Ye Han finished speaking, he turned around and greeted, "What are you doing poking? Get on the boat!"

The soldiers got in immediately, and Ye Han was the last to board the boat, and he didn't forget to wave to Tang Bei before entering.

There is not much space in the transportation boat, there are about 20 seats in total. The front of the boat is an open cockpit, and the bridge and the portholes in front of the boat are clearly visible.

Everyone probed their brains curiously, and found that there was a metal airlock outside the porthole, and all of them were deflated, and they all stayed in their positions obediently.

As soon as Ye Han was sent to the boat, Tang Bei immediately called the pilot on the radio, and after a while, a pilot rushed over.

Tang Bei confessed in a low voice before releasing the crew to board the boat. The pilot took a glance after boarding the boat. After finding Ye Han, he hurried over and asked for instructions: "Sir, shall we set off now?"

Ye Han frowned slightly: "Is there any problem?"

"The report is not... yes, it is just that the air brake must be pumped, which is a bit troublesome..." the pilot said in a reassuring manner.

Ye Han understood, nodded and said, "Then just wait a while."

The pilot let out a sigh of relief, and hurried to the cockpit to prepare for the flight.

Although the pilot said it without thinking, Ye Han understood the meaning of the words.

The fan-shaped small square and the airports on both sides are supporting facilities, and the materials unloaded from the train can be directly sent to the airport to be loaded and transported away.

The low-gauge dock is located outside the atmosphere, and any resources inside the dock must be used sparingly, and air, an important resource, is no exception. Therefore, every time the dock is opened, the air must be drained before opening the airlock.

If Ye Han wanted to leave now, it would be no problem to open the airlock, but in this way, the air would have to be pumped out in advance, and other transport boats would not be able to load the vines, which would affect the progress of the entire terminal.

Anyway, if you leave early, you will follow the transport ship. It doesn't make any difference if you go first and later, and it's no big deal to wait.

As expected, a few minutes later, a group of soldiers rushed to the airport with electric transport vehicles piled up with vines. One car after another was sent to the transport boats, filling one and then loading the next. The transport vehicles came and went One after another.

Each transport vehicle is as big as a small truck, and it is easy to load three to five tons. Ye Han calculated that about seven to eight vehicles can fill a transport boat. Can hold four transport boats.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help grinning, worried about the capacity of the transport boat.

However, he is also aware of the situation of the low-gauge wharf. The self-weight, load and volume of the transport boat have been strictly calculated. If it is larger, the risk of entering and leaving the port will also increase. It is simply not worth the loss.
