Chapter 37 Launching a Rocket

"Minister, will the rocket launch continue?"

"Zhang Ming entered the mangrove forest...shouldn't delay the launch."

Li Xianfeng checked the weather indicators on the big screen and nodded slightly: "Go on, the mysterious area and our place are not in the same space, as long as the current wind is not strong, you can launch."

"Everyone, are you ready?"

"Ready!"

In this way, the 100,000-ton large warship started its engine, carried a small rocket, and slowly drove into the mysterious area.

There is also a thick steel rope tied behind the warship's buttocks, connecting several large ships outside.

In this way, it can be guaranteed that the entering ship will not lose its way in the mysterious area.

When the big ship entered the mysterious area, it seemed to pass through a thin layer of "soap bubbles", causing waves to ripple in the space. The sunlight emits a strange refraction phenomenon, and even the temperature drops by two or three degrees.

Wherever one enters one's eyes, one sees a black and blue dead sea.

Empty and lonely.

It seems to be facing a majestic and boundless prehistoric world.

A strong sense of unease came from all directions, and the psychological phenomenon described in the investigation report appeared.

Everyone has a sense of loneliness of "a wanderer leaving home". It is so strong and debilitating. If the will is not strong enough, you may cry on the spot.

As time goes by, humans may get used to this loneliness, but this feeling of loss will not disappear, it will only accumulate more and more.

"Is it a special spatial phenomenon?"

"Without that rope, it would be really easy to get lost and unable to find the original path." Li Xianfeng took a deep breath to suppress the anxiety in his heart.

Looking along the direction of the steel rope, this long rope hangs in the air, and the other end seems to "disappear" directly.

In the mysterious area, the existence of the earth cannot be observed!

Of course, the Earth is not missing.

The other end of the rope is still tied to the earth.

If you return along the original path of the rope, you can indeed re-penetrate that layer of "space ripples" and return to the earth.

"What is the principle of this strange space mechanism?" Li Xianfeng couldn't help asking.

A professor explained: "It's not clear yet, the current physical knowledge can't explain it. According to some idealistic sayings, the earth may be 'deliberately' hiding itself."

"We are the children of the earth. After leaving the world, we will naturally feel lonely and homesick."

"Earth hiding itself?"

"It's just a way of saying..."

Li Xianfeng didn't worry too much about things that were unclear, and said a few words on the communication channel in the earphone: "Comrades, according to the investigation report of the Americans, after arriving in the mysterious area, there is a probability of about one tenth. Awaken super powers."

"Everyone should also know that the quota for awakening superpowers is very precious."

"If you find a rise in body temperature, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and shortness of breath, it may be a sign of awakening superpowers. Please go to the bedroom to rest immediately and report the abilities you have acquired."

"Observe the surrounding movements at all times, and if there is a problem, we will return to Earth at any time."

"If there are no accidents, prepare to launch the rocket!"

"Countdown, half an hour!"

In the quiet waiting, 30 minutes seemed a bit tormented.

Most of the people came to the mysterious area for the first time, and they were very curious, and they wanted to know which corner Zhang Ming was trapped in.

But the work in hand never dared to be sloppy for a moment. In the temporarily remodeled headquarters, there was only the sound of keyboard tapping.

People are making final preparations.

When the time came, Li Xianfeng loudly issued the "ignition" command.

There was a loud "boom", and a powerful white hot flame sprayed into the cooling pool on the deck, arousing a large amount of white mist.

The rocket continued to soar upwards, and the entire sky resounded with a huge roar.

"Procedural turn!"

"Spaceship two-way capture!"

"The telemetry signal is normal!"

"Optical USB radar tracking is normal!"

"The optical radar tracking is normal!"

Watching the bright white light in the sky fade away, Li Xianfeng's heart beat faster.

Now the industrial capacity of the entire country has been greatly reduced. If this rocket fails to launch, it will be even more difficult to produce the next one in a short time.

He couldn't help asking a white-haired old man: "Academician Ge, how is the condition of the rocket? Can it enter the atmosphere above the mysterious zone?"

The academician of engineering stared at the screen, his face was not very good, he said nothing, and suddenly said: "The speed of the rocket is lower than expected!"

The cold sweat on Li Xianfeng's forehead broke out all of a sudden.

"Frictional resistance on the way up has been greater than expected."

A large number of surrounding staff were also busy, and the sound of crackling keyboards sounded in the room.

"Teacher Ge?" Li Xianfeng asked again.

Academician Ge, who has a bad temper, has a gloomy face: "To tell you the truth, the situation is not very good!"

"Earth's atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, but the thickness of the atmosphere here is strange and seems to be evenly distributed."

"The friction is too great, the rocket can't go up."

"And... there seems to be a huge gust of wind in the sky?" Academician Ge frowned and calculated several times in a row.

"You mean, the rocket has soared hundreds of kilometers and still hasn't left the atmosphere?" Li Xianfeng's expression turned ugly.

"Yes, this possibility is very high. God knows how thick the atmosphere in this place is. It may be tens of thousands of kilometers. This rocket is just a small launch vehicle. It can only send low-orbit satellites. Now the rocket doesn't even have an atmosphere. Get out, it will fall from the sky soon after the fuel runs out!"

The cold sweat on Li Xianfeng's forehead fell to the ground.

Really... What are you afraid of?

The satellite launch failed.

Academician Ge stroked his white hair on the sideburns: "In the current situation, there is only one choice. Activate the various functions of the satellite as soon as possible, and how much information can be collected. Don't think that the satellite will crash if the launch is successful!"

There was no time to hesitate, Li Xianfeng gritted his teeth.

"Just do as Academician Ge said, turn on the various detection functions of the satellite, and prepare to throw the fairing. Collect as much data as possible!"

The fairing is a device located on the top of the launch vehicle to protect the spacecraft from rectification and heat insulation when it flies in the atmosphere. Once the rocket breaks out of the atmosphere, there will be no air friction without air, and there is no need for rectification and heat insulation.

But now there is an abnormal situation. After throwing away the fairing, the friction with the air will generate heat, and the satellite will not be able to last for too long.

After a few seconds, or tens of seconds, the satellite will burn and crash.

"How long can the rocket fly?" Li Xianfeng glanced at the big screen, and all kinds of abnormal data were about to overflow.

"In 10 seconds, the fuel will run out!"

"No time... throw the fairing now!"

After the fairing is thrown away, the satellite detection equipment is fully activated, and the mysterious area has a panoramic view!
