Chapter 310 Apollo 14 - Landing on the Moon
Li Changheng looked at Banks with a serious expression but a fanatical look in his eyes.
"What the hell happened?"
Blade did not wait for Banks to speak, and rushed to say excitedly, "You must have heard of the Apollo moon landing last year."
Li Changheng nodded with a frown, and then heard Dao Feng eagerly say, "After the Apollo 11 spacecraft successfully landed.
We also launched the 12th and landed successfully, but the 13th spacecraft was during our mission to Mexico.
Two days after lift-off, the oxygen tank in the service module exploded.
Although the astronauts successfully returned to Earth in the lunar module, they certainly could not lift off again.
Mr. Dylan Robin broke the news that the incident caused many trained astronauts to have mental and psychological problems to varying degrees.
This is the order to recruit new astronauts for the best pilots in active service.
Not only are you an active duty pilot of a National Guard F4 fighter jet, you also did overload testing up to 9G last year.
There are only 15 people in the United States who can really do the 9G test without the slightest sign of coma.
Moreover, the staff who tested you also wrote in the report that you definitely have the potential and strength to do a 10G ultra-limit test. "
Banks and the other 4 death squad members looked at Li Changheng with admiration on his face and said.
"Boss, you may become the seventh batch of trained astronauts, and you may even become the fifth or sixth person to land on the moon in human history."
FKU.
But Li Changheng cursed in his heart, the mustache officer who gave himself the anti-overload test.
But this is no wonder Li Changheng, after all, he has only heard of the best pilots, who can pass the 9G test.
But I haven't seen any information on the Internet at all. Most of the pilots doing the 9G test will be more or less unconscious, with sloppy feet and signs of unsteady standing.
Last year, he just said that he was not feeling well, and if he refused to take a rest for a period of time before taking the test, it all showed that he was very conscious at the time.
And, what's more.
After doing the 9G test, I didn't need anyone to help me after I finished speaking, and I didn't leave by myself without walking in vain.
After cursing in his heart, Li Changheng looked up at the sky again.
moon! ! ! ! ! !
God.
Li Changheng, who has never believed in religion, and his mantra is not 'God', couldn't help but rise up in his heart. This opportunity is probably the only one that he will never have a second chance until he dies.
You don't need to guess to know that the failure of Apollo 13 affected not only the astronauts, but also the US space agency.
Afterwards, the tests for the Apollo 14 astronauts will be more stringent, or they want to use newly recruited astronauts to arouse the fighting spirit of the existing astronauts.
Only then did the invitation to fighter pilots across the United States be sent out again.
Of course, even if someone passes the test in this invitation, it must be a spare tire for the astronauts who have been trained, trained and prepared long ago.
But Li Changheng believes that as long as he gives himself three months to study, he can be better than those astronauts who have been training and preparing for several years in any aspect.
After all, there is no need to test the body at all, and I am definitely the strongest one in the world.
There is no need to think about intelligence and memory, they are definitely better than those who were born as pilots or fighter test pilots.
Once Apollo 14 successfully landed on the moon again, and in another world, Apollo 14 to 17 were all successful.
Mi Guo, who has regained his confidence, and those pilots who have been training all the time, will not give him a chance at all.
Get in the car, "Find a place to make a call."
"Understood, BOSS", Blade quickly left the apron and parked at the entrance of the airport.
I gave Li Changheng a handful of coins, and watched him walk quickly to the public phone booth.
Stone Banks and others got out of the car and surrounded the phone booth, seemingly protecting Li Changheng, but in fact, this group of people from special forces all listened to what he was saying.
Ten minutes later, Li Changheng, who asked everything clearly, hung up the phone and walked out of the phone booth in a daze.
Dylan Robin told him that if he wanted to participate in the test, he had to go to the Air Force Base in Virginia to participate in the overload test before August 25, that is, 13 days later.
Then after a series of physical, psychological, and intellectual tests, as long as they can be ranked among the top ten in the United States, they can go to Houston to receive astronaut training.
He asked Banks, "Give me a cigar."
Banks hurriedly took out a cigarillo he was smoking, and Li Changheng simply sat on the curb by the side of the road, his eyes a little lost, thinking about whether he should take a risk, an adventure that must have only one chance in life.
There are countless reasons listed in my mind that I don't need to take risks, but no matter which one was shocked by the moon landing, it disappeared without a trace.
To the moon, to the moon, to the moon.
Going to the moon is probably the greatest feat in life, more than any other achievement.
Thinking of this, Li Changheng threw away the cigar in his hand and came to the phone booth again.
Called Philip.
At Buckingham Palace in London, Martin, Philip's first assistant, knocked on the door of the study and opened the door to enter the study.
"Your Majesty, Line 3, Mr. Henry Lee's number."
Philip, who was processing the documents, frowned and put down the pen, and picked up the number 3 button on the phone.
"Hey, didn't you go to America, did something happen?"
Li Changheng hesitated for a few seconds before gritting his teeth and said, "I, I may have a chance to become an astronaut on the Apollo 14 landing spacecraft."
"What?"
Philip, who was holding the microphone, stood up instantly, "What chance do you have? Say it again."
Lee Jang Hyung took a deep breath, "The failure of Apollo 13 made the US space agency publicly send out test and training invitations to fighter pilots all over the US.
Once I pass the test and I can outperform other astronauts after learning, I may get on the Apollo 14 spacecraft and land on the moon.
Your Majesty, I have no elders, the only relative is Anne, I need your advice. "
Philip was silent for a while, remembering how excited he was to watch TV all night last year because of the Apollo 11 moon landing.
And the questions I asked myself for days before the three astronauts came to visit England.
He was even so excited that he couldn't sleep for several nights, and temporarily asked the US side to give him fifteen minutes to meet the three astronauts alone.
But I didn't understand until I was excited, and as a pilot, I went to meet the three astronauts who saw that I was equally nervous.
Landing on the moon is not passion, but nervousness, worry, and even fear.
The only thing I can do is to follow the instructions one by one in the instruction book and complete them one by one with trepidation.
Then I was worried and nervous again and flew back to the earth in the aircraft.
It wasn't until he actually landed and lay on the bed at home, the first astronaut in human history to land on the moon, that he really felt at ease at that time.
The whole process was like a robot acting according to the program, which made Philip lose interest in asking again in an instant.
