Seven days later, Xiao Zhen led a group of Chinese experts on a journey to the Gulf of Aqaba in Jordan.
The plane was flying steadily at an altitude of ten thousand meters. Outside the window was the boundless blue sky and clouds. Xiao Zhen sat by the window, but his thoughts had already drifted to Jordan.
He is well aware that this mission is of extraordinary significance. It not only concerns the development of international space cooperation, but also is an opportunity to demonstrate China's space strength and wisdom.
When he thought about meeting his third son Osa and daughter-in-law Huang Yunxi, whom he had not seen for a long time, a warm feeling of family affection surged in his heart.
The plane landed at the airport in Jordan. As Xiao Zhen and his group walked out of the aisle, they saw Sarah coming to greet them.
Sarah was still as enthusiastic as ever, with her signature bright smile on her face, and she walked quickly forward to shake hands with Xiao Zhen.
In public, Princess Sarah politely said, "Academician Xiao, welcome to Jordan again! Prince Osa and Princess Osa are looking forward to seeing you."
Xiao Zhen smiled and responded, "Long time no see, Her Royal Highness Princess Sarah, thank you for troubling me."
Li Xinmin, who was standing next to them, rolled his eyes at the behavior of this pair of close female friends.
On the way to Highland Manor, Xiao Zhen looked out the window at Jordan's unique and exotic scenery, feeling a surge of emotion in his heart.
This land has a completely different culture and landscape from China, but on the road of space exploration, it is closely connected with China.
Osa has made great efforts to promote the development of aerospace in the Arab region, and the construction of this space station is one of the fruits of his hard work.
Soon, the car arrived at Highland Manor. As Xiao Zhen got out of the car, he saw Osa and Huang Yunxi waiting at the door.
Huang Yunxi was wearing a loose maternity dress, her belly was slightly bulging, and her face was filled with happiness.
Osa carefully supported her, his face full of joy and anticipation of becoming a new father.
"Dad, you're finally here!" Osa walked up quickly and held Xiao Zhen's hand tightly.
Huang Yunxi also smiled and said, "Dad, you've worked hard along the way."
Xiao Zhen looked at the happy couple in front of him, his heart filled with relief. "It's not hard. Seeing you two doing so well, I feel relieved. Yunxi, it's been four months now. How do you feel?"
Huang Yunxi gently touched her belly and said, "I'm fine. I just have a little morning sickness sometimes, but Osa has always taken good care of me."
The family walked into the manor talking and laughing, and a warm atmosphere filled every corner.
That night, everyone sat together in the manor's restaurant for dinner.
The table was filled with Jordanian specialties, as well as some Chinese dishes that Osa had specially prepared for Xiao Zhen.
Osa detailed the space station's construction history and current progress to Xiao Zhen, his words filled with pride and anticipation. "Dad, the smooth preparation for launch is thanks to China's technical support and the team of experts you brought with you.
The Arab region's space industry has just started and there is still a long way to go, but we are confident that with everyone's help, we can achieve greater success."
Xiao Zhen nodded and said earnestly: "The space industry is a common cause for all mankind. It is also an honor for us in China to contribute to the development of space in the Arab region.
You young people are full of drive and ideas, and the future is promising."
The next morning, the sun shone on the Aqaba Bay area, giving the land a golden glow.
Xiao Zhen and members of the expert group arrived at the "Abdullah Launch Center" in Jordan early.
At the launch site, a huge launch tower rises into the clouds, with various advanced aerospace equipment parked around it. The staff are busy and orderly carrying out various preparations.
Members of the Arab Joint Aerospace Committee had been waiting here for a long time. They were full of anticipation and respect for the arrival of the Chinese expert group.
After a brief and lively exchange, the two teams quickly plunged into their intense work.
Relying on their rich experience and professional knowledge, Xiao Zhen and the experts conducted a detailed inspection and evaluation of various systems of the space station.
Together with technicians from Jordan and other Arab countries, they discussed every key link before the launch of the space station and shared China's successful experience and technical highlights in the aerospace field.
While testing the space station's communication system, Chinese experts discovered a potential problem.
After in-depth research and discussion, they proposed a set of optimization solutions, which effectively improved the stability and reliability of the communication system by improving the signal transmission algorithm and adding signal enhancement equipment.
Arab technicians praised the plan highly and expressed their desire to learn from China's advanced technology and ideas for solving problems.
During the inspection of the propulsion system, the two teams also conducted in-depth exchanges.
Chinese experts made some suggestions on the storage and use of propellants, helping the Arab team further optimize the performance of the propulsion system and ensure that the space station can obtain sufficient power support during launch and operation.
The days passed quietly in busy and fulfilling work. Xiao Zhen and the members of the expert group worked closely with the Arab team at the launch site every day to solve one technical problem after another.
Huang Yunxi would occasionally come to the launch site to visit Xiao Zhen accompanied by Osa.
Every time she saw her father-in-law concentrating on his work, she couldn't help but admire the Xiao family's overflowing patriotism and sense of mission.
As the launch date approached, the atmosphere at the entire launch site became increasingly tense and exciting.
The staff stayed at their posts day and night, carrying out the final debugging and preparation work.
Xiao Zhen and the expert team did not dare to slack off at all. They repeatedly checked and confirmed every detail of the space station to ensure that there were no mistakes.
