Chapter 42: Don't be nervous(1/2)

After returning home.

They no longer care about the farce happening abroad.

No matter if Bobs was beaten to death, there would still be some kind of joke.

It doesn’t matter whether the United Space Agency changes or it is destroyed. It doesn’t matter whether it is reborn or rebuilt.

It doesn’t matter what public opinion is in the world.

Now, I don't care.

We gave up the fantasy of the United Space Agency, we gave up the fantasy of launching a backup rocket of the United Space Agency into the sky, and everything returned to reality. We started to be self-reliant from today.

But we have fifteen more years of shared experience and knowledge!

These are the real accumulation of wealth!

In 1958, the United States' first artificial satellite, Explorer, launched into the universe. At that time, we still didn't understand what a satellite was?

At that time, the founders of two bombs and one star were still working hard to study and explore overseas.

Maybe after a few years, we turned to envy and looked up to him.

However, just twelve years later, in 1970, the Dongfanghong-1 satellite allowed us to create it from scratch and successfully put it into the universe. For the first time outside the earth, we had a unique satellite

The mark of China!

In 1969, the United States devoted all its efforts to land the Apollo mission on the moon, marking the first time human footprints appeared on the moon.

At that time, the whole world was shocked!

At that time, all scientists in China were stunned. For us at that time, this was science and technology that had exceeded the scope of human beings!

But we did not give up, we began to work hard to catch up. We must catch up with their footsteps. From that moment on, learning from the West, imitating the West, and not falling too far behind the West has become the dream of three generations!

At that time, we had to admit that we were at least a hundred years behind Western aerospace technology!

As time goes by, the development of aerospace technology in the United States has stagnated, and it no longer has the technology and conditions to land on the moon. At the same time, because Western technology has stagnated and is afraid of our catching up, the technology blockade has lasted for decades.

, the technological suppression has begun...

But, in 2019, we landed on the moon.

The Chang'e satellite landed on the moon.

It took us fifty years from the dream that emerged in 1969 to the successful landing in 19!

Fifty years ago, we were a hundred years behind the West. Fifty years later, we are only fifty years behind them!

But we didn't stop yet and continued to catch up.

Finally, we caught up with them and were just a hair behind. And this took several generations and seventy years!

After the collapse of the United Space Agency, the world's aerospace industry will re-establish order. But this time, I didn't expect it...

We are on the same starting line!

The moon landing in 1969 was a shock to all mankind. For China at that time, it was a look up, a real look up. The impact on us at that time was no less than a nuclear explosion!

Now, we are standing on the same starting line...

This time, we will take another step forward. We will independently develop and create rockets to directly go to Mars!

Fifteen years from now, we will not only land rockets on Mars, but we will also bring Chinese children on Mars back to China!

Without destruction or establishment, the demise of the United Space Agency will push us to officially enter the path of independent research and development and independent creation. We must move forward.

In the future, aerospace will always be the main theme of the world. Space is the real place of competition for mankind, and before that day arrives, we will race with the world. We must and will definitely win a place before that day arrives!

This is the charm of the space race...

Jiuquan.

launch center.

The huge white rocket stands under the sun. Under the golden sunshine, it shines with the light of technology.

"Conducting final maintenance work."

"yes!"

"Launch base team, start final inspection!"

"Engine team, start final inspection!"

"Transportation warehouse team, start final inspection!"

"Power transmission system, final inspection begins!:"

"The power system begins final maintenance..."

Voices kept coming from the intercom.

On the tower, a young man with short hair and a strong spirit kept clenching his fists nervously, then loosening them, and then clenching them again.

Because of nervousness, Wang Dengfeng clenched his cheeks tightly and closed his teeth. He paid attention to all the disturbances and looked at all the situations at the scene!

A twenty-eight-year-old young man said loudly:

"Report to the commander-in-chief. The final maintenance work is completed, please give instructions!"

hiss--

Wang Dengfeng took a deep breath and turned to look at this man who was younger than himself. He was his junior student. Now he was an astrophysicist, responsible for preparations and planning of the launch operation.

"Xiao Qin, prepare to launch!"

Young Xiao Qin's body couldn't help but tremble. He was also nervous. He was extremely nervous!

In fact, everyone present was extremely nervous!

This is the first time that China has launched a transport rocket to the surface of Mars that will land accurately.

But this important task has been handed over to a group of young people!

Xiao Qin said in a deep voice: "The estimated launch time is in five minutes!"

"Five minutes..."

Wang Dengfeng nodded, but hesitated to speak. He just kept swallowing his own saliva, he was too nervous.

After the two were silent for a long time, Wang Dengfeng said: "Are you stressed?"

Xiao Qin nodded: "Big. Very big."

"Where does your stress come from?"

Xiao Qin thought for a while: "It comes from... fear of failure!"

"Yes, I am also afraid of failure. After I became the commander-in-chief, although I have presided over the launch of more than twenty Long March rockets, but... this time it is to Mars. This is the second time for mankind and China's first

once!"

Wang Dengfeng put his hand into his trouser pocket and squeezed his cell phone. He wanted to call his teacher, but he always hesitated to call.

He didn't know what to say.

He is also afraid of being on his own and letting others see his nervousness.

"We will make it!"

"Yes, we will succeed!"

Wang Dengfeng nodded affirmatively and looked deeply at Xiao Qin: "What if we fail?"

Xiao Qin's face turned pale: "I... don't know. How should we face the country?"

Wang Dengfeng gave a wry smile, took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, and chewed it hard. He read some trivia on the Internet and said that chewing gum can relieve stress.

He chewed hard. Chewed hard!

After chewing it for a minute, he spit it out angrily. He felt that it was of no use at all...it couldn't relieve stress at all!

‘Buzz——’

‘Buzz——’

At this time, Wang Dengfeng's cell phone rang. He quickly took it out and saw that it was his teacher Liu Guoli!

"Hey, teacher!"

The voice on the other end of the phone was a little serious: "Are you nervous?"

Wang Dengfeng hesitated: "Yeah."

"Why are you nervous?"

"I...I don't know..."

"You don't believe in our technology, or you don't believe in the technology of all the people at the launch center?"

"No, I believe..."

Wang Dengfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I haven't... I haven't experienced such a major event. I, I have no experience. I'm afraid of omissions!"
