Chapter 252 Musk Is Dumbfounded
Foreign media knew that Tianyu Xinghai was scheduled to launch a satellite on the 18th, and they also reported it briefly.
The same group of people were still paying attention, such as the little bastards who came to strongly condemn it again.
And the Eagle Sauces, who sat on the chair with a dead face, said nothing.
Musk was also one of the foreigners who paid attention, and he specifically asked his secretary to pay attention.
However, seeing that Ma Tian was actually preparing for the launch in three months, he was also a little shocked.
After getting the news, his whole face was a little funny and awkward.
"Are you sure it's the 18th of this month?" He confirmed with his beautiful secretary.
"Yes, boss!" The beautiful secretary would naturally not make a mistake about this.
"Hiss——" Musk took a breath, and Ma Tian's speed shocked him.
Why is Ma Tian so fast? Is it their country that helped him behind the scenes?
Musk didn't want to believe that Ma Tian led his team to do it alone in three months. He would rather believe that the national team on the Rabbit side helped Ma Tian, and Ma Tian only developed a satellite by himself at most.
"Keep paying attention to me. Will they broadcast live on the 18th? If they do, remember to call me to remind me to watch!" Musk left a message and continued to work. He didn't know how shocked he would be when he watched the live broadcast!
In the early morning of the 18th, a few kilometers away from the Rocket Launch Center of the City of Progress, people from Tianyu Security were already maintaining discipline.
Watching the excitement is always human nature, especially watching the excitement of rocket launches. Basically, no man can refuse.
"Don't squeeze, you can also go home and watch it in the live broadcast room. There will be online live broadcasts. Please pay attention to the official website of Tianyu Xinghai!"
"That kid, get out of the car, why are you climbing so high?"
The people from Tianyu Security actively maintained discipline. They swore that this was more tiring than their war in the Steel Country. Their throats were about to smoke, especially some little brats, who really ran around everywhere and were least afraid of them.
On this day, the construction of the City of Progress was also suspended for one day. Except for the people at the Rocket Launch Center, everyone else withdrew from the City of Progress.
After all, the launch center is located in the northeast corner of the city, and is only 2 kilometers away from the city center at most. If it fails and falls, there will definitely be some losses.
This is why many rocket launch centers are located in the northwest, far away from the city, because the surroundings are empty, and failure can minimize losses.
But Ma Tian is confident enough, that is, he firmly believes that he is not so easy to fail, so when designing the city, he set it in the northeast corner, also in the City of Progress.
At 9:30 in the morning, the last staff also began to evacuate the launch pad in an orderly manner, and the rocket will be launched on time at 10 o'clock.
Ma Tian sat at the control console, and Hua Shuwen and other bigwigs from the Aviation Research Institute who came to visit yesterday were around him.
Hua Shuwen looked at Ma Tian's serious expression and knew that Ma Tian was under a lot of pressure. He comforted him: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. It's your first time, and failure is nothing! Musk has failed for several years!"
He didn't say that three months was too fast and failure was normal, because he knew that Ma Tian had simulated 300 times.
You know, they usually simulate rocket launches about 100 times at most, but Tianyu Xinghai actually simulated 300 times, which he didn't expect.
However, after seeing Tianji, he suddenly understood a little.
Tianyu Xinghai's artificial intelligence technology is indeed as strong as the world says!
He also paid attention to the news about Xiaodi at that time, and beat AlphaGo! Now, he knows that Xiaodi is just a clone of Tianji, and he doesn't know what Google will think after knowing this news!
It should be very sad! Hua Shuwen thought.
"I'm okay, but I can't help being a little nervous!" Ma Tian took a deep breath and said. After all, he is not an omnipotent god, so he naturally can't achieve a 100% winning rate.
Even metaphysics talks about the 49th of the heavens, and the 1st of them. He, Ma Tian, doesn't think he can say 100% success, at most 99.9%.
The live broadcast room was also released at the same time, and a special camera began to shoot the situation of the launch pad.
The number of people in the live broadcast room also increased wildly. In just a few minutes, several million people poured in, which made some live broadcast software vendors envious.
For example, Mouya, Mouyu, and the principal's panda, etc.
In fact, Principal Wang wanted to find an opportunity to communicate with Tianyu Xinghai about the live broadcast on his panda, but Tianyu Xinghai didn't agree at all. Tianyu Xinghai didn't lack money at all.
10 o'clock, with the electronic sound countdown of 10 seconds.
All the viewers couldn't help but count down in their hearts, and as 1 ended.
A deafening roar began to come from the screen, and then a large amount of white smoke was seen at the bottom of the TY-1 rocket, and it began to fly into the sky with a blue flame that reached the sky.
Watching the TY-1 take off smoothly, the viewers cheered, which meant that the first step was successful!
The most difficult steps in rocket launch are probably a few steps, take-off, lift-off, derailment, and the most likely to explode is also the take-off stage.
The people of Rabbit Country who watched were cheering, while other countries who watched were disappointed. Of course, they hoped that the explosion would fail.
Musk was also the same. He hoped that Ma Tian would fail to explode, but after seeing the successful takeoff, he said to himself with contempt: "Not bad, worthy of being Ma Tian!"
The TY-1 carrying 12 satellites was launched smoothly and climbed rapidly towards the sky.
Soon, in the eyes of the people watching on the scene, it became like a flying monkey, becoming increasingly invisible.
"Everyone, go to the live broadcast room!" Someone shouted, and the people watching on the scene near the City of Progress opened their mobile phones to watch the live broadcast. It was really not enough to support it on the spot, and the live broadcast room also had to support it.
At an altitude of 30km, it was naturally invisible to the naked eye, and the condition of the rocket could only be viewed through the special camera installed on the TY-1.
Most people who don't understand naturally look at whether there is an explosion at the bottom and whether the screen will go black. Because once it explodes, the screen will go black!
The Chinese people became nervous and prayed for a smooth launch in their hearts, while the foreigners were like gamblers racing horses, shouting "explosion", "explosion" in their hearts.
However, it did not go as the foreigners wished. The TY-1 continued to take off smoothly. The data panel below the middle of the live broadcast room screen also told the people watching that the TY-1 rocket has now reached an altitude of 58km, and then the small booster rocket on the side has separated.
Seeing the successful separation and normal flight, the whole audience cheered for the second time.
And the foreigners were in a worse mood.
When the TY-1 rocket reached an altitude of about 110km, the bottom rocket booster began to separate successfully, and the whole audience cheered for the third time.
However, many people noticed that the live broadcast screen suddenly split into two.
"What's the situation? Why is it split for no reason?"
"Yes, what's the screen on the left? Why do I feel like I'm landing?"
Many people don't understand the situation, only those who are knowledgeable and professional may have a guess.
For example, Musk was dumbfounded!
If he guessed correctly, the recovery technology he was proud of would be broadcast on the left.
"My hair?" Musk's pineapple face was completely uncalm, and the hand touching his chin was put down. He leaned forward and stared at the screen on the left.
He had a bad premonition!
