Chapter 754 Complete Success!

The light seemed to have a sound.

When the entire night sky was illuminated by a huge flame.

The mountains seemed to be quiet.

The sky and the earth lost their colors, and my old friend did not deceive me!

Before the sound waves arrived, countless observers had already produced a roar in their heads.

"Look!"

"Wow~!!"

"Awesome! China's space industry is awesome!"

————

At this moment, while the outside world was reveling, the command center had not yet relaxed.

"Takeoff was successful!"

"Takeoff time: 20:00:344 ms Beijing time!"

From this moment on, it was the critical moment to determine the fate of Chang'e 3.

"Telemetry indicators are normal! Booster fuel consumption is normal!"

.17 seconds after takeoff!

"Starting program turn! Thruster adjustment is normal!"

"First zone optical tracking is normal, and orbit change is detected."

The Long March 3B began to change from vertical flight to flight along the tangent of the earth.

.50 seconds after takeoff!

The launch base could no longer capture the image of the "Long March 3B", and all data had to be sensed through the telemetry system.

Feedback the status of the rocket with various data.

"USB band tracking is normal!"

"Weinan station tracking is normal!"

Thousands of kilometers away in Shaanxi Province, the heroic figure of the Long March 3B in the night sky was accurately captured.

It started an observation relay across the country!

This is a country with a vast territory and an inherent advantage in the field of aerospace.

140 seconds after takeoff!

"Start booster separation!"

"Booster separation is successful! The landing area is normal!"

"The first-stage sub-rocket engine ignited successfully!"

"Taiyuan station tracking is normal!"

The trace of the Long March 3B appeared in Shanxi Province.

150 seconds after takeoff!

"Start the first and second stage separation."

"The first and second stage separation is successful, and the landing area is normal."

"The second-stage sub-rocket engine ignited successfully!"

Although there are only pieces of data and sentences of instructions.

But Zhou Rui can still clearly feel the tension and solemnity of the command center.

200 seconds after takeoff.

"Tianshi Station tracking is normal!"

"Start the second and third stage separation!"

"Second and third stage separation is successful! Landing area is normal!"

"Third stage rocket ignites successfully!"

230 seconds after takeoff.

The speed of Long March 3B is getting faster and faster, and has exceeded the first cosmic speed.

"Leave the atmosphere, the fairing is separated!"

"Fairing separation is successful!"

It also means that the Chang'e 3 payload has been exposed to outer space.

If it is a general satellite launch, this stage is already a success.

"The navigation area tracking is normal! The whole route tracking is completed!"

The observation ship on the sea also tracked the target of the rocket, completing this relay race across most of China.

But at this time, it still cannot be called a success.

In the command center, every breath is cautious.

For fear of missing even a command or a data.

The huge room fell into a brief silence.

Because at this stage, there is very little they can do.

.590 seconds after launch.

"Arrived at the planned orbit, the primary engine of the third-stage rocket is shut down!"

"Shutdown successful!"

At this time, the rocket has long been free from the constraints of the atmosphere and can use inertia to move forward in a vacuum. Shutting down the engine is to save fuel, and the secondary ignition is used to switch the orbit at the required position.

830 seconds after launch.

"The secondary engine of the third-stage rocket is ignited."

"Ignition is successful, and the telemetry fuel is retained normally."

Long March 3B. To be precise, the last part of the body of Long March 3B is making its last effort.

Since it is a passenger sent to the moon, the flight time this time is particularly long.

1140 seconds after launch.

"Start the separation of Chang'e 3."

This is the last shudder of the whole audience.

One second later, a loud answer came.

"Chang'e 3! Separation is successful! Orbital parameters are normal!"

Silence. First there was an abrupt silence.

Then

"Success!"

"We succeeded!"

"Yeah!!!!"

It was nearly 20 minutes later than the audience outside.

In the command center, they dared to cheer.

The ordinary staff below stood up and cheered.

On the high platform in the back, the team leaders and senior executives kept applauding.

Although Chang'e 3 still has a long journey ahead of it, it is flying to the position of the moon "four days later", and its story has just begun.

But the success of the first stage launch is still worth celebrating.

Director Sun wiped the sweat from his palms, stood up and shook hands with everyone around him.

Chief Engineer Sun Ze hugged the project team members around him and shed tears.

Even Shan Chunyuan, who was not good at talking, bit his lip and nodded while applauding.

Zhou Rui crossed his arms, walked to Shan Chunyuan, and said, "It seems that you lost the bet."

He was talking about the transfer.

Shan Chunyuan had a complicated expression and said, "At most, I don't object. The bureau and the base may not agree."

Zhou Rui said confidently, "Don't worry about this, I will communicate."

After this period of contact, which can be regarded as an inspection, Shan Chunyuan has been highly recognized by him.

He is indeed an experienced, highly skilled, rigorous and meticulous master.

With the addition of Shan Chunyuan, "Tai Tiangong" will have the opportunity to achieve rapid improvement in rocket inspection, assembly, launch and other fields in one step.

Zhou Rui can then safely leave the relevant work to him.

Even many ordinary engineers in the Xichang base were attracted by Zhou Ruixiang.

For the space agency to support "private aerospace", it means diverting talents. These can be discussed.

But it's too early to talk to Director Sun now. It's best to wait until the rocket recovery technology is solved.

Zhou Rui patted Shan Chunyuan on the shoulder and said, "But compared to dispatch, the tasks close at hand are also important."

He pointed at the completely still picture on the big screen and said:

"It takes four days for this guy to fly to the moon, and five days to land on the moon. During this period of time, it is idle. My Long March 2 is coming soon."

Shan Chunyuan naturally knew the next arrangement, and exhaled a heavy breath and said: "The people in the team need to take a break, at least take a day off."

Zhou Rui smiled: "Don't worry, I've made arrangements. I'll have a rest tomorrow. I'll take everyone to the city to celebrate, and we'll start work the day after tomorrow."

The Xichang base’s own celebration, as well as the celebration of Chang’e-3, cannot be so early and must wait until the lunar exploration is completed.

It would be funny if champagne was opened at halftime.

But tomorrow, he will spend his own money to take the entire rocket engineering team to have fun.

After all, due to their own reasons, the rocket engineering team must continue to work while everyone else can rest.

That "Half Price Long March Er C" will arrive the day after tomorrow.

Shan Chunyuan lamented in his heart that Master Zhou was very good in his conduct and deeds, but he refused to admit defeat.

"This is what I, the team leader, should do. I'll pay for it tomorrow."

When he said this, his heart trembled. After all, compared with Zhou Rui's financial resources, he was not even a firefly.

It was so high and low that I was bleeding profusely.

Zhou Rui shook his head: "That's inappropriate."

Patted Shan Chunyuan on the shoulder:

"After all, you will no longer be the team leader tomorrow. I am the team leader of the rocket recovery project team and you are the deputy team leader."

Shan Chunyuan:

——————

That night, many domestic media, especially Yangma's various channels, broadcast the news of "the successful launch of Chang'e 3" in different ways.

Some are scrolling subtitles below.

Some are real launch scenes.

This is the final phase of the second phase of the national lunar exploration project and has many great significances.

Of course, since it has not landed on the moon after all, the current report is still relatively cautious.

Shanghai, Jiangwan Hanlin.

Li Wenqian and Han Ziyin stayed in front of the TV.

They have been paying attention to tonight's rocket launch and have not missed it since seven o'clock.

As they watched the rocket taking off that eclipsed the sky and the earth on the screen, both of them clapped their hands.

The corners of Han Ziyin's mouth couldn't help but turn up. Although Zhou Rui's picture only appeared for a short time during the previous news broadcast, she still couldn't help but feel proud.

It wasn't until the screen changed to irrelevant news that Han Ziyin turned off the TV without feeling satisfied.

Li Wenqian crossed her thin legs and continued to check relevant news on her mobile phone. The delicate soles of her feet touched something. When she lowered her head, she saw it was a deck of playing cards.

Suddenly said: "Zi Yin, there are rules of poker, is it called egg beating?"

Han Ziyin was stunned, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "It seems there is."

Li Wenqian opened her mouth:

"It actually really does exist!"
