The atmosphere in the command center was extremely tense. Everyone was nervously analyzing the shuttle's condition, trying to find a way to rescue it.
"Activate all backup rescue plans and find a way to rescue Mr. Xiao!" The person in charge of the command center issued a death order.
Inside the shuttle, Xiao Zhen knew that he was facing a life-and-death test.
While he was trying to repair the systems that were still working, he was also looking for possible ways to save himself.
The oxygen was becoming increasingly scarce, and Xiao Zhen's breathing became rapid. But his eyes remained firm, for he knew that as long as there was still a glimmer of hope, he could not give up.
"It can't end like this. There are still many unknowns waiting for us to uncover." Xiao Zhen muttered to himself.
At this moment, a sudden burst of noise came from the communication system. Xiao Zhen was delighted and worked hard to adjust the communication equipment.
"Shuttle No. 1, this is the rescue team. We are on the way. Stay calm and wait for our support." The voice of the rescue team leader came from the communication channel.
A glimmer of hope ignited in Xiao Zhen's heart. "Got it. We will hold on."
However, the storm intensified again, and strong electromagnetic interference caused communication signals to be intermittent. Xiao Zhen knew that time was running out.
He used the last time to back up all the data recorded in the shuttle and sent it to the command center through the emergency communication channel.
These data contain valuable information about the Kuiper Belt and may provide important reference for later explorers.
"Command center, the data has been sent. I hope it can be helpful for subsequent exploration. If I... can't go back, please continue exploring the mysteries of the universe and don't stop." Xiao Zhen's voice became weak due to lack of oxygen, but his words were full of power.
"Mr. Xiao, you must hold on, rescue will be here soon!" The voice in the command center was filled with anxiety and reluctance.
But soon, the communication signal was completely cut off. The shuttle was shaky in the storm, and Xiao Zhen's consciousness gradually faded.
In the command center on Earth, everyone stared at the display screen, hoping to receive a signal from the shuttle again. However, the display screen was only dead silent.
"Keep trying to contact Shuttle One!" The head of the command center was unwilling to give up the last hope.
But as time passed, there was still no response. Everyone knew that Xiao Zhen had likely lost contact in this powerful cosmic storm and was in grave danger.
The news quickly spread around the world, and countless people were grief-stricken.
Xiao Zhen, a scientist who dedicated his life to human space exploration, his passing has plunged the whole world into grief.
In Xiao Zhen's hometown, people spontaneously organized a memorial event at the intersection of Yu-Gui Road.
On the streets and alleys, people are talking about Xiao Zhen's deeds and contributions.
His persistent pursuit of science and courageous exploration of the unknown have become a legend passed down from mouth to mouth.
In the scientific community, Xiao Zhen's death is seen as a huge loss.
But the scientific research results and spirit of exploration he left behind are like bright stars, illuminating the way forward for those who came after him.
The children of Xiao Town, though immersed in the grief of losing their father, are well aware of his last wishes. Odin, Osa, Zhennan, Zhenbei, Zhenxi, and Weiyi, among others, have inherited their father's work and continue to strive for the development of humanity in their respective fields.
At the interstellar space station, the young astronauts looked at the vast universe and made a vow in their hearts to follow in Xiao Zhen's footsteps and continue exploring the mysteries of the universe.
Time passes, and although Xiao Zhen is gone, his spirit will always live in people's hearts.
In the days to come, human space exploration will continue to advance.
New technologies continue to emerge, and more astronauts embark on the journey of exploring the universe.
Whenever people look up at the starry sky, they will think of Xiao Zhen, the great scientist.
His last struggle in the cosmic storm became a magnificent chapter in the history of human exploration.
His love for the universe and pursuit of truth, like a torch, has been passed on from generation to generation of explorers, inspiring mankind to continue moving into the depths of the unknown universe and to uncover the mysteries hidden behind the stars.
In the long river of the universe, the name of Xiaozhen will shine forever and become an immortal symbol of the human spirit of exploration.
His story, like the stars in the universe, illuminates the long journey of mankind and guides future generations to find the future of mankind in the endless universe.
September 9, 2064, should have been an ordinary day, but it was forever engraved in the memory of human history because of a piece of tragic news.
With heavy hearts, the National Space Center announced a heartbreaking news to the world: a great figure with many outstanding identities, including scientist, world-renowned writer, social activist, entrepreneur, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and chief scientist of the National Science Strategy Committee, Academician Xiao Zhen, unfortunately lost his life when he encountered a strong cosmic storm while performing an exploration mission across the Kuiper Belt.
As soon as the news was announced, the world was shocked and fell into grief.
At the United Nations headquarters, the flag symbolizing world peace and unity was slowly lowered to half-mast, expressing the deepest condolences to this great man who made outstanding contributions to all mankind.
In the country's capital square, the solemn national flag was also lowered to half-mast, and people gathered spontaneously with solemn expressions, silently mourning this great scientist.
Not only that, 67 countries and regions around the world, regardless of size and region, have lowered their flags to half-mast to express their grief over Xiao Zhen's passing.
