Waiting day after day.
The launch date is getting closer.
Levi's mood also became a little anxious and nervous.
Sometimes I stand next to the satellite launch tower, watching the rocket being moved in, and see engineers holding testing instruments and checking the status of the satellite rocket many times.
Levi occasionally couldn't help but remind the inspection engineers to check carefully and make sure to eliminate all hidden dangers.
After all, the hope of recalling the Death Fleet rests entirely on this chemical energy rocket.
If a low-probability event occurs and the rocket launch fails, the signal device may not be damaged in the explosion or collision, but the probability of him being able to retrieve the signal device by himself is extremely small.
Therefore, this rocket can only succeed, not fail!
"Don't worry, it's very stable and nothing will go wrong."
"Little brother, we are all experienced. Trust our skills, there will be no problem."
"Absolutely foolproof!"
The testing engineers spoke confidently, without much nervousness on their faces.
To be honest, if it were more than a decade ago, when Xia Country only had a few or a dozen space launch missions each year, every launch, everyone at the satellite base, from leaders to grassroots engineers, would be walking on thin ice, checking over and over again for fear of problems.
But now, Xia Country has 40 to 50 space launch missions every year, and at least 30 or more. The satellite base has launch missions almost every month, and rocket launches are commonplace. The psychological quality has been trained long ago, and it is impossible to feel like facing a great enemy and under great pressure every time.
Moreover, Xia Country's industrial technology level has improved, the quality and reliability of its rockets have been greatly improved, and its gradually strong technical strength has given these engineers confidence.
Hear their assurances.
Levi didn't dare to push for it, for fear that it would cause flags one after another and end up messing things up.
…
soon.
On July 14th, there was no wind and the weather was sunny with occasional clouds.
Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, satellite launch site, audience viewing area.
"Attention fuel department, prepare to refuel!"
At around ten o'clock in the morning, the broadcast voice from the top of the transmission tower sounded.
"Fuel filling begins!"
Starting from the first-stage thruster of the rocket, the liquid, highly toxic oxidizer nitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) is pumped into the upper oxidizer tank through two white filling pipes; another filling pipe pumps the equally highly toxic liquid combustible hydrazine (C2H8N2) into the lower combustible tank.
To be honest, rockets that use nitrogen tetroxide + UDMH as a fuel combination have low thrust and thrust-to-weight ratio. They should have been eliminated long ago and replaced by more advanced liquid oxygen-kerosene rockets or hydrogen-oxygen rockets, rather than using such rockets and continuing to pollute the environment.
But this type of rocket is cheap. Even if its performance is a little worse, its cost is at least 15% lower. Moreover, its technology is mature and its reliability is high. It can be foreseen that this type of rocket can be used for more than 20 years.
11:20 am.
The rocket's thrusters at all stages have been refueled.
The engineers then performed a final check on the status of the rocket and satellite and found no problems.
At 12 noon sharp, the rocket was launched and the one-hour countdown began.
…
Tianhai City.
In a private room of a local specialty restaurant.
The food was already on the table, but no one at the table started eating.
Instead, he focused his attention on the girl's mobile phone screen.
"Dad, Mom, look, Brother Levi has a proper job. He's now an entrepreneur in the aerospace industry and plans to start his own aerospace company."
"Brother Li Wei started live streaming to raise funds for his business and complete the difficult initial accumulation."
"Now, Brother Levi has taken the first important step in his life. He has placed the satellite he invented on our country's Expedition 2C rocket. This rocket will soon carry his rocket into the vast and deep space."
"It can be said that by reaching this point, he has surpassed at least 99% of ordinary young people and achieved things that ordinary people dare not even imagine."
"The road ahead will definitely be more difficult, but I believe that Brother Levi will use his clever mind to reach heights that no one dares to imagine."
Ji Yumo said as he spoke.
At the same time, she looked at the handsome man in the video with admiration and love. He was standing on a slope with a serious expression and his hands folded.
"Is that really the case?"
A look of doubt flashed across Gong Xiujuan's face. She looked carefully at the man in the video and muttered: Is this young man really that outstanding?
"That's what it should be."
Ji Xingguo, who was standing next to him, thought for a moment and said, "Look at that satellite launch tower. How could that scammer be so capable? Wife, don't doubt our daughter's judgment. She's a genius who could get into Peking University or Tsinghua University. How could she be so easily deceived by a scammer?"
"Besides, our daughter has been in Tianhai for more than half a month. Apart from picking her up at the station on the first day, the wine disappeared without a trace on the second day. It seems that he didn't care about our daughter at all, uh~"
Noticing his daughter Ji Yumo's rolling eyes and plump cheeks, Ji Xingguo quickly changed his words: "This shows that this guy is very career-oriented and unlike other young people who spend all their time on love affairs, this just shows that this guy is more reliable."
Gong Xiujuan nodded, thinking that what her husband said made some sense.
However, thinking of the unreasonable words the boy said on the phone, she felt that even if this boy was a genius as her daughter said, he was a genius with an abnormal brain and might not be a good match for her daughter.
