This is a very charming island. Although it is only 0.03 square kilometers, it is still full of palm trees, plus the charming sunny beach. As soon as he landed on the island, Li Feng fell in love with this place.

Li Feng also said directly to Lu Lu next to him: "Baby, this island is nice. We can come here for a trip some other time!"

"Well, the air is not bad. I didn't expect there to be such a charming island. If possible, we can also buy an island." Lu Lu said.

"Small islands are also for sale?" Li Feng asked.

"In the United States, let alone small islands, as long as you have money, you can buy anything." Lu Lu said.

As expected, American imperialism is still simple. As long as you have money, you are the boss. Everything depends on money!

So when he saw the tanned Elon Musk, Li Feng also "tickled" him seriously: "Elon, you really know how to enjoy yourself. You have to do all the rocket research and development."

You come to such a beautiful island and you still say you are busy with work all day long!"

"Uh... Leo, in fact, it doesn't make sense that this small island had no water or electricity at all when it came up. Our team used the ancient Egyptian method to move it up bit by bit, and this kind of high-temperature and high-humidity jungle work is very consuming.

Due to my physical strength and the presence of mosquitoes and other insects at night, I couldn’t sleep at all,” Elon Musk complained.

Originally, Elon Musk planned to launch at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, and the U.S. Air Force signed an agreement and paid a lot of fees. However, there are other launch missions there and Space X is not allowed to use the Air Force.

Base launch.

When such a result came, Musk was naturally very annoyed. Fortunately, he finally found such a small island. In the end, he was ridiculed by Li Feng for coming to "travel". Elon Musk is really "unspeakable", I

It’s really too difficult. I’m exhausted all day long, but I still say I’m here to enjoy it.

"Oh... Well, Elon, thank you for your hard work..." Li Feng was also extremely embarrassed, but Lu Lu next to him just smiled.

However, Li Feng played the "transfer method" very smoothly, and said to Elon Musk without changing his expression: "Um, Elon, please show us around, we haven't seen a rocket launch yet!"

After 30 months of development, the entire island has indeed taken shape. Especially when Li Feng stood outside and saw the "Falcon 1" that looked like a high-rise building, he exclaimed. This is real.

Rockets, rockets that can fly into space, are not the monkeys that travel through the sky that I played with when I was a kid.

Seeing Li Feng being so curious, Elon Musk said, "Leo, it's still a while before the launch. Do you want to go in and have a look?"

"Elon, thank you! There's no need for that. It's just my first time meeting you, and I'm a little curious. I'd better not cause any trouble to you." Li Feng looked back again, smiled and postponed.

Li Feng was indeed curious, and he was also filled with emotion: At this time, the "Falcon 1" was still a single Merlin engine rocket, and later the "Falcon 9" had nine engines.

The "Falcon Heavy Rocket" at the back is composed of 3 "Falcon 9" rockets, with a total of 27 Merlin engines, so how about even more spectacular!

And Elon Musk is indeed a super genius, and he even used Space X rockets to send his Tesla sports car into space.

But these are all things in the past life. I just don’t know if Elon Musk will be so successful in this life? And will this launch be successful?

Elon Musk did not force it, and then took Li Feng and the others to the control center of the launch base. There was a dense circle of computers in front of the big screen, which felt a bit like the headquarters of an American blockbuster.

The last 15 minutes of countdown time soon entered, and everyone was working nervously and orderly to carry out the final debugging work.

However, as the 3-minute countdown entered, the Falcon 1 rocket suddenly started to smoke.

"Elon, why is the rocket smoking? Is it okay?" Li Feng asked nervously, wouldn't it be over before it was launched?

"Leo, this is the coolant, which is cooling the engine." Elon Musk explained patiently.

"..."

Fortunately, the staff at the on-site control center alleviated Li Feng's embarrassment and said, "1 minute to prepare!" After one minute, people began to pay attention.

"Prepare in 30 seconds!" Li Feng and Lu Lu were also a little nervous and stared at the big screen in front of them. What's more, Li Feng also knew that the launch might fail.

The last ten seconds of countdown soon entered, Elon Musk also became nervous, and many staff on site also shouted:

"10!"

"9!"

"8!"

"7!"

"6!"

Everyone at the scene joined in, and even Li Feng shouted, no wonder people like countdowns, it’s really exciting!

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"emission!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

As soon as he heard a roar, a large amount of smoke came out from the bottom of the rocket, and the screen was a little unclear. By the time Li Feng could see everything clearly, the "Falcon 1" rocket could soar into the sky from the launch pad.

"Lidar tracking is normal!"

"The remote sensing signal is normal!"

"Normal!", "Normal!", "Normal!"

"It used to be normal!"

…

There was also a burst of applause at the scene, and everyone was very happy. After the failure of the last launch, this good start also means that Space

It also displays the real-time speed and altitude of the rocket.

The Falcon 1 rocket broke through 40km/h in 5 seconds;

Breaking through 150km/h in just 10 seconds;

Soon it exceeded 1000km/h in 60 seconds, breaking the speed of sound! Everyone was very excited!

Even Li Feng believes that this time the Falcon 1 rocket is successfully launched, it will enter the first cosmic speed and fly into space, which is 1 minute and 16 seconds after the rocket is launched, when the rocket has just flown 12km above the ground.

,

The rocket on the screen suddenly began to swing, and then began to shake randomly. Before the people on the ground could react, the rocket began to disintegrate. There was only a "bang" sound, and the rocket exploded.

"Falcon 1" only took 76 seconds from takeoff to the final explosion, and turned into a huge firework. It's just that the value of this firework is too great!

Ever since Elon Musk entered rocket launches, not to mention the time and energy he spent, his investment in Space

The result has now turned into a firework, so the moment after the rocket exploded, the joyful atmosphere began to gather, because everyone knew that Space X Company had no money, could there be a third chance?

Not necessarily,
Chapter completed!
