$930 Skyhook Fishing
At dawn, Ye Han led his men out of the base. Mobile version m.vodtw
Looking up, Ye Han barely saw a small flashing light in the distant sky. He turned on the telescope and zoomed in several times. The small light suddenly became a clear transport ship. The main engine nozzles on both sides of the spacecraft were facing downward, and the flashes in the reaction chamber were one after another.
"Skyhook, I have seen you, very clearly."
"Got it, prepare to release the cable, pay attention!"
"Understood!" Ye Han agreed, closed the telescope, looked around, and simply turned over and lay on the ground to avoid looking up and tiring his neck.
Seeing Ye Han's behavior, several people around him also lay on the ground.
On Ye Han's left was Lin Yi, and on his right was Ouyang Ping.
Lin Yi's duty is to control the escape rocket. According to Beidu's requirements, this rocket must be able to take off at any time, so he usually stays in the base and does not come out. However, as the cooperation gradually deepens, Beidu's risk assessment of Jupiter's moon is getting lower and lower. After a long time, he finally relaxes a little and can go out for a walk.
Because he is not familiar with the situation, Lin Yi simply follows Ye Han's buttocks and is at ease as a follower.
The closer the Tiangou flies, the slower the speed, and the frequency of the engine flashes becomes higher and higher. When it flies to the square of the forward base, the flashes are connected and the number cannot be distinguished.
Ye Han knows that it is the main engine of the Tiangou that resists the gravity of Jupiter's moon!
Aerospace is all about speed to resist gravity. The slower the relative speed, the stronger the gravity of the spacecraft.
Ordinary spacecraft cannot resist the gravity of the planet even if the engine is running at super power, but the Tiangou is different. It is specially designed for this mission. The same type of spacecraft has only two engines, and the Tiangou is equipped with eight!
Eight engines are running at the same time, and the power must reach more than 90%, so that the Skyhook can float in the same position.
Theoretically, the Skyhook can land on the surface, take off, and then return to space with the super high engine thrust. However, suspension is a very fuel-consuming behavior. Taking off from the ground and suspending burns more fuel, which is completely not worth the loss.
After the Skyhook stabilized, Ye Han heard a voice: "Base, the cable has been released!"
Ye Han immediately replied: "The base understands and is observing!"
Through the telescope function, it can be seen that a cable has been released directly below the spacecraft, and a hooked sinker is connected to the end of the cable, extending downward from the bottom of the ship.
"Skyhook, I see the cable, everything is normal!" Ye Han said.
After getting the carbon fiber plants on Earth, they were planted for a few months. Although they did not grow as fast as the aliens here, and the aliens did not harvest as much, it was still no problem to get a few cables.
"Skyhook understands, three-second acceleration countdown - three, two, one!"
As soon as the words fell, the originally slowly descending sinker suddenly fell like a kite with a broken string, and the speed was getting faster and faster, and soon entered the atmosphere.
Ye Han's eyes were fixed on the sky, and he suddenly had a very strange feeling in his heart. He felt that the sinker with a hook was like a fishhook, and the cable was like a fishing line. Skyhook was naturally a fisherman.
The high-speed winch of Skyhook was extremely fast, and the sinker's landing speed was even slower than the release speed of the winch. The cable behind the sinker was loose and had never been straightened.
Ye Han silently estimated the height of the sinker. When he estimated that the sinker was only five kilometers away from the ground, Ye Han decisively shouted: "Skyhook, slow down!"
Skyhook quickly did as he was told, and the speed of the sinker was immediately reduced by half. The cable was immediately straightened, pulling the sinker below, like an oversized pendulum, swinging irregularly in the air.
"Slow down!"
The sinker slowed down by half again, and the falling speed was only a quarter of that just now, but it was shaking more violently.
Ye Han continued to watch, and when the height of the sinker dropped to about one kilometer, he slowed down the skyhook again. Half a minute later, the sinker hook, which was as big as a car, fell to the ground.
"Okay--" Ye Han stretched his throat, and the skyhook immediately stuck to the cable. At this time, the height of the sinker hook was only a little over two meters,
It swayed more happily from side to side and back and forth.
Ouyang Ping widened his eyes: "Boss, this can't get close?"
The sinker hook swung too fast. Even if he was wearing power armor, it would be a big deal if he was hit by this thing.
Ye Han frowned: "Skyhook, lower it another three meters!"
"Skyhook received!" As he spoke, the cable was lowered another three meters, and the heavy sinker hook hit the ground heavily. Because of the high speed, the heavy sinker hook jumped and rolled on the ground, bringing up a large piece of grass and soil, and plowed a trench several dozen meters long before stopping.
The hook stopped, but the cable at the top was like a string that was hooked by a naughty boy, humming and swinging non-stop.
Ye Han breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and said, "Ouyang, bring a few people to lift the hook."
"Okay!" Ouyang Ping waved his hand, and several soldiers quickly followed. A total of seven people rushed over and lifted the hook without much effort.
Ye Han jumped to the head of the container in a few steps, waved his hand and shouted, "This way!"
The soldiers lifted the hook to the side of the container, and Ye Han said on the radio, "Skyhook, raise it two meters!"
"Skyhook received!"
The cable immediately straightened, and the hook that touched the ground slowly rose a distance, but the height was lower than Ye Han expected.
Ye Han did not shout again, but asked the soldiers to hand over the hook. Ouyang Ping quickly jumped to the container, and caught the hook with Ye Han. The two worked together to hang the heavy hook on the head of the container.
Ye Han first gestured for Ouyang Ping to go down, then he checked the hook himself, and only turned around and jumped down after confirming that there was no problem. As his feet touched the ground, he shouted: "Skyhook, the mounting is complete, you can rise!"
"Skyhook received!"
The empty spacecraft immediately increased the engine power, and the suspended spacecraft gradually rose. The originally somewhat loose cable suddenly tightened, and then the container was pulled tight, and then the container was lifted off the ground.
The container was thrown out all of a sudden, almost hitting Ye Han, and he was so scared that he quickly lay on the ground, turned over and looked at the shaking container, and couldn't help but feel fortunate that this place was a distance from the base.
If it was shaking like this, it would definitely smash the base next to the base.
The winch power was not enough, and the Skyhook could not stay there and waste fuel. After the container left the ground, the spacecraft immediately accelerated, dragging the container while moving forward and increasing the altitude.
The container flew higher and higher and farther in Ye Han's eyes, and it happened to catch the rising sun, but it disappeared after a while.
The Skyhook rose more than 100 kilometers in one breath and finally dragged the container out of the atmosphere. After that, the spacecraft flew directly to the space station, handed the cable to the space station and slowly dragged it back. The Skyhook went back to continue to hook the second container.
