Chapter 51 Space Spirit

The earth is silent. It's hard to imagine that this multi-planet that seems to have no luster once gave birth to countless lives. But now it feels like it is unable to protect itself and has no time to take care of the lives in it. It has no charm at all.

.

No wonder United Airlines' plan is to find the Earth's explosive devices and use the Earth as a drop-off point to resolve the vacuum bubble crisis.

Nami thought Arthur must be crazy. Just a minute ago, she was shouting, "We are 2,100 meters away from the space station. We should slow down."

Arthur said it was not necessary, it was still early, and then he ran into trouble during his first docking.

The spacecraft crashed into the rotating space station, and even scratched the already scarred solar wing.

"Arthur, if we don't slow down, even if we miss it a little bit, to the left, to the right, up or down, we will all hit it. Do you understand?"

Arthur didn't answer. He really had no time to answer Nami. To his left, orange light was radiating from the direction of the sun, and disk-shaped stars were shining brightly.

Chase, approach, speed up.

It has been two centuries since the Nebula International Space Station was built, and there is a huge gap between its technology and the technology mastered by United Airlines today, but at the time, it was undoubtedly the best.

Its solar wings are best described as riddled with holes, as they look like a net full of fish hooks.

The predecessor of the Nebula International Space Station was the Tiangong Space Station, a space station independently developed and put into orbit by China. It was one of the representatives of the highest technology at the time.

Later, aerospace departments of various countries, including the European Space Agency, submitted applications to China for use, and the Tiangong Station became larger and larger.

According to "Aerospace History" records, in the year 2024 on Earth, the International Space Station jointly established by fifteen countries has reached its end of use and will enter the South Pacific, a spacecraft recycling concentration point, after retirement.

After that, due to the decline of the world economy, the aerospace powers had neither the funds nor the more advanced technology to invest in the space station, a large-scale spacecraft project that took decades. Until Tiangong held up the banner of the space station, allowing humans to fly in space.

Research has not been hampered by the lack of a long-term orbiting laboratory.

Until more than 20 years later, the Nebula Space Station became the last near-Earth international space station in human history.

Precisely because its design follows the core module model of the Tiangong series, as long as the docking is successful, Galapagos can enter the core control room of the space module...

It sounds a bit like theft, but this is a theft that involves life and death.

The people of the past planted trees, and the people of the future took advantage of the shade.

The light outside faded, and the space station and the Galapagos came to a lightless place.

Although it was impossible to feel the cold through the spaceship, Nami shivered for a while after the sunlight disappeared. The chill mixed with fear completely turned her patience into a hoarse scream.

"Slow down, Arthur, we can't withstand the collision. Arthur, do you hear me? I really want to knock you out."



Behind the space station, the Earth more than 3,000 kilometers away is extremely spectacular.

Because of fear, Nami's attention turned from the green round hole of the periscope to the porthole next to her. For a moment, she thought she saw the white cloud covering it.

That is something that cannot happen.

Just like the probability of Arthur successfully docking is infinitely close to impossible.

There is still a chance to slow down, but instead of slowing down, the speed will increase...

Arthur is taking a risk.

They don't have a plan B.

Human beings! In the final analysis, it is the result of human adventurous spirit and extreme and blind self-confidence.

"Beep beep beep beep beep."

"Beep beep beep beep beep."

"Beep beep beep beep beep."

The alarm sounds and the red button light flashes.

Arthur didn't seem to hear him.

He will regret it, he will regret it, he will regret it.

Nami had no time to think, she closed her eyes tightly, waiting for the violent impact to send the spacecraft to the next level of hell.

How is it possible for an idiot and an arrogant man to manually dock with a space station from two hundred years ago?

Even if the technology can be realized, even if the interface can still be connected, it will still be impossible to realize the connection if the interface is slightly deformed after such a long time.

How could I agree to give him a try? All we need is enough energy to enter the earth.

Why should I promise him.

"Docking detection enabled."

"Undo the docking port."

"After the test is completed, start the pressure test..."

"Pressure leakage test... hatch lock completed"

"Docking successful."

call……

Arthur felt something in his chest beating violently, as if a small nuclear engine was inside.

For more than two hundred seconds just now, Arthur could hardly feel its beating. Everything was peaceful and there was no sound at all in the world.

Whether inside the body or outside, everything is only the docking port in the periscope.

How it was done was only in one moment, one unmistakable moment.

Now! Arthur heard the sound of the bowstring tightening and its sudden release.

This is his favorite sport. He holds his breath and draws the bow to shoot. He has experienced this moment countless times.

"What happened...?" Nami opened her eyes. The light in the cabin was a bit dazzling, but it didn't feel any different.

"Do you hear anything?" Arthur asked.

"What? Wait, it's..." Nami said carefully: "We... docked...?"

"Yes, thank the stars, we are not blocked by the technology of our ancestors."

"It's right that interface technology can only be improved but not subverted." Nami murmured to herself.

"Because United Airlines hasn't forgotten the Earth, our technology hasn't completely forgotten the past, and besides, it's perfect, isn't it?"

"Look, are those the flags of various countries? Stars, after leaving the earth, humans have no borders!"

Nami was as surprised as a child. She couldn't recall what happened in those few seconds, but the spacecraft had already told her the answer.

docking…

Pressure leak detection…

Core cabin...

National flag patterns...

Nebula International Space Station...

There is no doubt that they are connected to the Nebula, and the Galapagos Islands are connected to the International Space Station launched from the Earth.

"We were saved by humans two hundred years ago."

Nami was still in a daze. She subconsciously checked the spaceship's supply system and found that everything was normal.

It seems that the surprise was too much.

"Yes, we were saved by the aerospace spirit of mankind two hundred years ago. Look, these flags, do they look like family members with smiles on their faces? They are watching us. It is not just luck, but I have to say that luck stands on the side

to our side."
