Chapter 1776: Space experience

10 kilometers.

50 kilometers.

100 kilometers...

The Obsidian Flying Boat does not require strong thrust like a rocket to overcome the effects of gravity, so it has been maintained at a high ascent speed. Unknowingly, the Obsidian Flying Boat has risen to a height of about 400 kilometers above the ground. .

At this altitude, the atmosphere is already very thin, close to a vacuum state.

And everyone is already in a state of weightlessness.

For Xia Ruofei and others who put on the extravehicular spacesuit, it seems more relaxed in weightlessness. Although the bulky spacesuit still looks bloated, it seems that there is no weight.

Sound cannot be transmitted in a vacuum.

However, Xia Ruofei and the others do not need to use mental power to transmit, because the outer space suits all have an intercom system, and everyone has set the frequency on the same channel in advance, so they can talk directly on the frequency.

Xia Ruofei said: "We are only verifying the flight. I think it is almost the same as maintaining the orbital altitude. This is already the same as the orbital altitude of our country's Tiangong experimental module. Brother Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Xuanbi gave an OK gesture and said, "Yes!"

This verification flight was based on Xia Ruofei, so naturally everyone would not have any opinions.

So, Xia Ruofei said: "Then I will release the spacecraft!"

After that, he first used mental power to control the console of the Obsidian Flying Boat, and expanded the shielding enchantment range of the Flying Boat by about 20 meters-this is almost the limit of the shielding enchantment of the Flying Boat, and it has been maintained for a long time. In the enchantment of the range, the consumption speed of the crystal will also become much faster. But Xia Ruofei still has to do this, otherwise the spacecraft will be released rashly. I am afraid that many big countries will immediately notice that an unidentified aircraft has suddenly appeared on the 400-kilometer orbit, so the spacecraft must also be included in the shielding enchantment. .

After adjusting the barrier of the Obsidian Flying Boat, Xia Ruofei took the Dragon Spaceship out of the Lingtu space.

The dragon spacecraft appeared next to the obsidian flying boat instantly. At this time, the obsidian flying boat had maintained an orbital altitude of 400 kilometers and was flying around the earth. The dragon spacecraft and the obsidian flying boat were relatively stationary.

Xia Ruofei directly connected the Dragon Spacecraft and the Obsidian Flying Boat with two straps-this strap is the kind of safety rope used by astronauts when they are out of the cabin, and it is included in the accessory box of every extravehicular spacesuit Equipped with several pieces, the relative state of the two is basically still, and there will be no pulling force, as long as a simple connection with this kind of strap is enough.

And even if the Obsidian Flying Boat and the Dragon Spaceship floated far away in space, Xia Ruofei could fully control the Obsidian Flying Boat to catch up, and it would definitely not happen to be directly lost in space.

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Dear fellow daoists, then I will be in the spaceship!"

After speaking, Xia Ruofei gently kicked the deck of the obsidian flying boat with his feet, and then he flew towards the dragon ship erraticly.

Xia Ruofei did not take any safety measures. He directly grabbed a fixed rod on the outside of the spacecraft, and then waved towards Chen Xuan, Ling Qingxue and others on the Obsidian Flying Boat deck behind him.

If it is an ordinary person, it is basically impossible to enter a sealed spacecraft directly in space.

In fact, during space flight, if the spacecraft door is opened directly from the outside, it is estimated that the strong internal and external pressure difference can directly blow the door out. When astronauts exit the cabin, they first come to the sealed cabin, and then decompress the cabin so that the cabin becomes a vacuum without any pressure difference with the outside, and then the cabin door can be opened.

Of course, this is not difficult for cultivators.

Xia Ruofei grabbed the external fixed rod of the Dragon spacecraft with one hand, and then his mental power directly extended into the spacecraft's return cabin. The return cabin is also the cockpit of the spacecraft, and all the controls are done here.

Although the power system of the spacecraft has been disassembled, some basic control units are still retained, otherwise the spacecraft will become a big tank, which cannot meet the needs of space life at all.

According to the operation manual, Xia Ruofei used mental power to remotely control the spacecraft directly outside the spacecraft, turned on the spacecraft's main power supply, and deployed solar panels to ensure that the spacecraft had sufficient power supply.

Then, he manipulated the button again to decompress the cabin he was about to enter.

After doing this, Xia Ruofei directly pulled the handle of the cabin door with mental force and opened the airtight cabin door.

Then, Xia Ruofei easily pushed in, and then lightly got into the spacecraft.

Xia Ruofei checked briefly, and then said, "Everyone, come here!"

Chen Xuan and the others also took off from the Obsidian Flying Boat, came to the Dragon Spaceship easily, and then filed into the Dragon Spaceship.

This cabin suddenly got into five people wearing outer space suits, and it suddenly seemed a bit crowded.

Xia Ruofei seized the time to close the air-tight cabin door, and then extended his mental power to the cockpit. He checked the air-tightness of the cabin and confirmed that the door was closed and there was no problem with the air-tightness. Pressurize.

Soon, the air pressure in this cabin was added to the same as the other cabins.

Xia Ruofei opened the doors leading to the other cabins and said, "Okay, everyone can take off the outer space suits, but the fellow Taoists in the Qi refining period will wait a moment, I, Brother Chen and Elder Yang come first! "

Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan are both Golden Core cultivators, and if there is a problem with the oxygen content in the spacecraft, or there are other dangers, their survivability is far stronger than that of Qi-refining cultivators.

Xia Ruofei and the three took off the outer space suits in accordance with the operating procedures.

They tried to take a few breaths, and it didn’t feel much different from that on the ground. It’s just that they felt a little uncomfortable under weightlessness, but the environment inside the spacecraft was definitely okay. At this moment, even a worldly one Ordinary people in the world can survive very well when they appear on the spaceship.

So Xia Ruofei gestured towards Ling Qingxue and Yu Xin'er.

The two of them took off their outer space suits impatiently.

There is already air in this cabin, so everyone can talk and communicate directly.

Xia Ruofei said: "In order to ensure that when danger arises, everyone can put on extravehicular spacesuits and quickly escape the spacecraft. All spacesuits are designed to stay in this cabin, but everyone has their own storage magic weapon, so It is better to put away their own spacesuits so that this cabin can make more space!"

Everyone nodded one after another, and collected their extravehicular spacesuits into their respective storage magic weapons.

Then, Xia Ruofei took everyone and wandered around inside the spacecraft.

These cultivators are still somewhat uncomfortable with the environment of weightlessness. They always feel light and fluttering under their feet, and they no longer have the concept of up and down, so they stumble and bump when moving forward. Fortunately, when the spacecraft is designed, there are some easy bumps. The soft case is used, and the protection is quite good.

Xia Ruofei and others strolled around and found that although these expansion cabins are not very large, the design is very reasonable.

For example, there are two resting cabins so that men and women can be separated. Of course, the so-called rest cabin is actually a sleeping bag fixed on the wall. Because it is in a state of weightlessness in space, there is no distinction between up and down, so everyone feels the same when standing and lying down.

There are also special bathing and toilet areas on the spacecraft.

In addition, because there is no need to load a large amount of living materials, nor do you need to undertake tasks such as on-orbit scientific experiments, naturally there is no need to carry test equipment, so a lot of cabin space is saved. Xia Ruofei simply estimated it, even if it is more. For a few people, overall the space is quite spacious.

Of course, this is all relative. If compared with the ground, the spacecraft must be cramped.

According to the operation manual of the spacecraft, everyone has practiced some basic operation procedures several times. This is also the most basic requirement. During a one or two month voyage, any situation may occur. Naturally, it is necessary. Everyone can perform basic operations on the spacecraft independently.

Fortunately, everyone is a cultivator, and this kind of operation is not particularly difficult. The main test is memory, so everyone will master it quickly.

Xia Ruofei and others stayed in the spacecraft for about half an hour, then they all put on extravehicular spacesuits and returned to the orbital module that entered and exited the spacecraft.

Xia Ruofei locked the door leading to the return cabin, and immediately manipulated the spacecraft buttons with mental force to depressurize the cabin.

The next step was to open the hatch, and everyone filed out of the spaceship and returned to the Obsidian Flying Boat.

Xia Ruofei did not immediately put the spaceship away, but began to arrange formations on the outer surface of the spaceship.

The main thing is the simple shielding formation. For Xia Ruofei, the formation itself is not difficult. The real difficulty is that he needs to fix the prepared formation materials on the outer surface of the spacecraft, and these formation materials must be able to adapt to the relative Relatively harsh environment.

When Xia Ruofei was in the United States, he had asked Li Yifu to prepare in advance.

The material he used is a kind of nephrite. Although the hardness is not very high, the ductility is the best among the jade materials. Even if the temperature changes greatly, it will not crack easily.

Xia Ruofei inlaid the nephrite jade talisman carved in advance on the surface of the spacecraft one by one. In order to operate the dragon spacecraft, many grooves and handrails were designed on the outside of the dragon spacecraft. Xia Ruofei placed the talisman one by one according to local conditions. Well, after checking it again, he returned to the interior of the spaceship.

At this time, the cabin doors of the spacecraft had not been closed yet, Xia Ruofei entered the cabin expertly, and it was another process of closing the cabin door and pressurizing it.

In the end, he came to the cockpit-this was the center of the spacecraft's control, and Xia Ruofei arranged the core of the formation here.

Although wearing a cumbersome extravehicular spacesuit, Xia Ruofei relied on mental power to directly manipulate the formations, so it did not affect his speed. He was very skillful in arranging the formation control core, and this was the control. A yuan crystal was embedded in the core and then left the spaceship.

The main function of this array is to shield the spacecraft, so that the monitoring equipment on the earth, the satellites and space stations in orbit, etc., will not be able to find the spacecraft. Even with the naked eye, ordinary people cannot see it.

In this way, the Obsidian Flying Boat does not need to keep the shielding enchantment open to the maximum-when the shielding enchantment is opened to the limit, the consumption of the crystal is very large, if it is just a little waste, it will be fine. However, when the round-trip voyage is as long as one or two months, the waste is not a little bit of crystals, so Xia Ruofei naturally needs to make improvements.

After setting up the shielding array directly on the spacecraft, a single crystal can be used for one or two months, and this consumption is basically negligible.

In fact, the shielding formation can use the spirit crystal, but Xia Ruofei didn't want to replace the spirit crystal frequently, so he used the original crystal directly.

In this way, he only needs to control the opening and closing of the formation, and basically does not need to care about the exhaustion of the formation during the whole navigation process, and it is almost maintenance-free.

After Xia Ruofei left the Dragon Spaceship, he did not immediately put the Dragon Spaceship away.

He also closed the cabin door, then used mental power to remotely control it, pressurized the cabin just now, and then turned off the power supply of the spacecraft, but the solar windsurfing board did not take you back-the Lingtu space is spacious enough for mountains and seas, and There is no need to put away the solar panels to save space, just store them in. Moreover, the frequent collection of solar panels will increase the risk of failure, and it should be the most stable to keep it in the open state.

After doing all this, he put the Dragon spaceship into the Lingtu space, and at the same time temporarily closed the spaceship's shielding formation.

Xia Ruofei returned to the Obsidian Flying Boat, and immediately reduced the scope of the shielding enchantment, and then smiled and said to everyone: "Well, this is the end of everyone's first space experience trip! Let's return! First! The second batch of passengers are waiting to board the spacecraft!"

There was everyone's relaxed laughter on the channel.

To be honest, when they first boarded the Obsidian Flying Boat, the two Qi-refining monks Ling Qingxue and Yu Xin'er were quite nervous. After all, space is full of unknowns, and for them, fear is inevitable.

However, after almost an hour of experience before and after this, this kind of fear has weakened a lot, and their hearts have become more confident.

Xia Ruofei controlled the Obsidian Flying Boat to start descending altitude, and found a suitable trajectory, while descending, he controlled the Flying Boat to fly towards the Huaxia Capital.

The descent speed of the flying boat is very stable. This is also due to Xia Ruofei's precise control. After all, as the altitude drops, the earth's gravity gradually starts to work. If there is no control, the speed must be faster and faster, but in Xia Ruofei Under control, the flying boat can basically keep dropping at a constant speed, which greatly increases the comfort of the "passengers".

At an altitude of about 3,000 meters, the flying boat had already passed an accurate descent trajectory and reached the sky above Huaxia Capital.

Xia Ruofei controlled the Obsidian flying boat to hover in the air, and then everyone replaced the extravehicular spacesuits—the oxygen content at this altitude was enough, and the temperature was within the range that ordinary people can tolerate, so naturally, spacesuits are no longer needed for protection. .

The spacesuits that everyone replaced were not put away, but left on the deck of the Obsidian flying boat. Because the next group of expedition members will board the flying boat soon, they still need to use these spacesuits.

After the change, Xia Ruofei controlled the flying boat to continue descending, hovering steadily a few meters above the Liuhai Hutong courtyard.
