Chapter 1249 Er Gou
A large summer farm dog, Da Huang, was happily eating the food in his bowl. Hot dogs, steaks, and eggs were foods that he could never have eaten when he was wandering.
Now, he only needs to follow the instructions and stay in the ball for a few hours every day to get them easily.
"What will the owner of the two-legged beast hunt for food today? I will work hard to grow up and help the owner!"
Gu Qing looked at the stray dog who was concentrating on eating through the one-way glass window, and he felt a little inexplicable in his heart.
He noticed that the dog had shiny fur, bright eyes, and a small bone mark on the dog tag on its neck, and asked, "Have you bought insurance for it?"
When a person in charge of the manned space project heard this question, his brain circuit almost short-circuited.
Instead, his colleague next to him answered: "This special mission cannot buy insurance, but our project team has signed an agreement. If an accident occurs, we will donate a sum of money to animal protection projects and children's charity projects, and deduct one month's salary from the person in charge of the relevant links."
"Well, I hope everything goes well."
Gu Qing nodded to the doctor, then waved to the big yellow who was still eating, and said loudly: "Ergou, come on! After this mission is over, I will cover all your expenses for the rest of your life!"
Through the thick glass, the big yellow ate even harder.
"We chose local dogs instead of other dog breeds to perform the mission because we believe that stray dogs that have experienced loneliness and harsh living environments can better withstand the various extreme pressures in space flight than other dog breeds based on comprehensive considerations.
Ergou is a male stray dog, so he needs to lift his legs to defecate, which can better test our space suit design and manufacturing process.
And it is also the best performer in the rocket simulation experiment assessment. After this meal, it will continue to be fed with nutrient gel for two days.
We have gradually installed sensors on the surface and subcutaneous part of Ergou's body to monitor its breathing and heartbeat as well as the reaction of some internal organs. After entering space, the monitoring data will be transmitted back to the ground by our company's communication satellite to eliminate the possibility of information theft."
More and more instruments, equipment and scientists gathered in this small base. Although Daxia has achieved manned aviation and even built its own space station, Jiuzhou Technology's first animal into space orbit is a major milestone event for this project.
In the crowd, there are several astronauts in blue uniforms who are also paying attention to Ergou's status, because this animal friend is their vanguard, the hero dog who takes the first risk.
However, among these astronauts, there is a short-haired female astronaut who, in addition to paying attention to Ergou's status, also glances at Gu Qing not far away from time to time.
Although it is not the first time to "peep" like this, every time Li Ying sees Gu Qing's eyes, her heart trembles.
The deep pool in those eyes seems to attract all her sight, making people not want to look away at all.
Gu Qing noticed that people in the crowd looked at her from time to time, and even in the field of vision of Anhetang's SR1 glasses, several women were marked with an inverted question mark "", this special symbol means that the marker has special feelings for the target of protection.
Although Anhetang has seen countless men, women, old and young have this special feeling for their boss since this function was launched, he still chooses to pay more attention to avoid unexpected problems.
When the scientists of Jiuzhou Technology's manned space project put Ergou in a special space suit and sent him into a pressurized sealed cabin designed specifically for him, the sealed cabin of Ergou, which had a full meal, was fixed to the head of the rocket, and there were many detectors and cameras with surface treatment beside him.
In fact, most of the engineers in the manned project team believed that this rural dog adopted from a rescue station would die within ten hours after going into space.
Although many tests and trainings have been done, even if stray dogs have been straying since childhood, dogs have more acute senses than humans, so the acceleration of rocket launch and the confined space are almost several times more tormenting to dogs than humans.
Sun Changzheng, the person in charge of animal experiments for manned space projects in the aerospace department of Jiuzhou Technology, has long accepted the punishment of salary deduction.
In his opinion, a dog can verify technology and products, so what does his monthly salary count for?
However, he still said to the project co-leader beside him: "Dr. Zhou, do you think Ergou, who has been taking the special Taoyao for four months, can return safely?"
Wearing a white lab coat, Zhou Binsheng, who was in charge of Taoyao animal experiments, heard this question and answered with ease: "If Ergou can withstand the spiritual shock brought to it by the universe, the special materials of the sealed cabin can filter out enough harmful radiation, just discussing whether the characteristics of the life body are stable or not.
I think Ergou can return to the Blue Planet in good health. In fact, our laboratory has prepared a celebration cake for it. Some students have specially found the cafeteria to reserve a few beef leg bones with meat, just waiting for it to return safely."
"Is this the respect and love of life for the younger generation? Although reason and experience tell me that they are likely to be disappointed, I also hope that Ergou can return safely.
After all, that means that our life support system, isolation materials, and buffer settings are all the world's top level, and the manned space program will be able to get on track soon."
Sun Changzheng, the person in charge of animal experiments in manned space projects, said with emotion.
Although Jiuzhou Technology has mastered the technology of reusable rocket launch and many project link technologies of rocket research and development and manufacturing, Jiuzhou Technology's reusable rockets are still using the liquid oxygen-kerosene regenerative cycle engine of the Sixth Institute of Daxia Aerospace Science and Technology Group.
Gu Qing wanted to openly bring people and equipment to research rocket engines, but the official has always adhered to this restriction rule, so in desperation, Gu Qing turned to the next best thing and got the liquid oxygen-kerosene regenerative cycle engine.
In experiments and so many launch missions, engineers and scientists of Jiuzhou Technology's aerospace project team have expressed their admiration and admiration for liquid oxygen-kerosene engines countless times.
This generation of high-thrust 120-ton liquid oxygen-kerosene rocket engines is more than 60% higher than the existing Changzheng series launch vehicle engines, and its carrying capacity is about 3 times that of the existing Changzheng series launch vehicle engines, reaching 25 tons. At the same time, they use environmentally friendly fuels such as liquid oxygen and kerosene, which are pollution-free.
