"I'm floating in mid-air, sitting cross-legged and meditating. Do I look like an accomplished person?"
Wei Kang took off his space suit, and his whole body was like a leaf falling on the water, floating lightly in the air.
He waved his limbs awkwardly, trying to assume a meditative posture.
When it was finally completed, Wei Kang couldn't help but smile proudly at Jian Lianyun.
This scene was immediately photographed by the quick-eyed Jian Lian Yun, and it was fixed into an eternal photo.
There are many photos like this, such as the aqua blue planet captured through the porthole. When the space station happened to pass over China, the magnificent mountains and rivers captured from an altitude of 400 kilometers are all magnificent and make people's hearts beat. .
Among them, the most shocking ones are those photos of snow-capped and rolling snow-capped mountains in the west of the motherland.
And the deep blue along the eastern coast.
The porthole of the space station is like the most beautiful filter in the world. Through it, everything on the earth is seen with a touch of clear blue, interspersed with white snowflakes, looking so crystal clear, like a kingdom of frost.
Everything is condensed into the small area in front of you, which is completely different from the scenery seen on the ground, giving people an unusual feeling of vastness and distance.
This is the legendary scale of the universe.
In this context, anyone will feel the vastness of the universe and the starry sky, as well as their own insignificance as a speck of dust, thus completely putting aside all worldly thoughts and worries.
All these complicated emotions reached their peak when Wei Kang, wearing a flying aviation suit, rose from the open door.
He hung the safety rope on the safety handrail outside the cabin, slowly moved out of the orbital cabin, leaned his upper body out of the cabin, and slowly waved toward space.
At this time, there was darkness behind him, a mass of white under his feet, and his space suit was also pure white.
Throughout the picture, black and white meet here to outline distinct lines, symbolizing the glorious moment when human civilization officially integrates into the universe.
Wei Kang looked around through his hood, only a patch of starlight flickering faintly.
He looked at the seemingly endless starry sky and spoke softly.
It seemed to be revealing one's true feelings, or making a vow.
"Hello universe, I'm here."
"Hello moon, next time I will stand on you and look up at the more distant starry sky."
"Mars is good, I will personally see your true face in my lifetime."
After he finished speaking, he spoke loudly into the microphone in the mask: "I have left the cabin and I feel good!"
"Next, it's a space walk."
He moved his body with difficulty and came outside the cabin. His upper limbs only grasped the outside of the space station and adjusted his posture.
Immediately, he held the five-star red flag that had been prepared at the door in his right hand and released it with his left hand at the same time.
The entire body slowly floats in space and is connected to the space station through a safety cable around the waist.
Wei Kang changed directions, faced the camera at the hatch, and slowly waved the red flag in his hand.
At this moment, he was looking up, down, left, and right, surrounded by nothingness.
Only a white figure stands out on the black background.
The moment when this picture was frozen again by the camera.
It became a classic picture that has been circulated for a long time.
There is no doubt that these two faithfully recorded photos inside and outside the cabin are not only the most unforgettable moments in Wei Kang's life, but will also be a historic moment in the history of China's aerospace industry.
In addition to these two photos, Wei Kang also took a series of daily life in space, such as going to the toilet in space, eating in space, brushing teeth, washing face, sleeping in space, etc.
He even called Sun Chengren from the space station to share his joy.
Another call was made to his father-in-law, Jian Guohua, and his family.
At that time, Jian Guohua was taking a shower when he suddenly received a call from space.
He hurriedly put on his bathrobe and rushed out of the bathroom without even having time to wipe the water droplets off his face.
So, when the parents-in-law appeared on the video call, the style suddenly became a little weird.
Wei Kang was stunned when he looked at his father-in-law, who was wrapped in a bathrobe, with beads of water on his head, and his mother-in-law, who was dressed up next to him.
Jian Lian Yun was also stunned and speechless for a moment.
The four of them looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
When the astronauts on the line saw this scene, they looked at each other and quietly left the scene.
After a few seconds, Jian Guohua waved his hand calmly: "Xiaokang, I'm sorry, I was taking a shower when I received the call."
Having said that, there was no trace of embarrassment on his face. Instead, he kept looking around and exclaiming in surprise.
"Tsk, tsk, is this the space station?"
"Did you guys have a safe trip? That's great."
“It feels so good to have your dream come true!”
It wasn't until his mother-in-law couldn't stand it anymore and pinched her waist hard that Jian Guohua's voice suddenly stopped.
Wei Kang forced a smile, waved his hand and said, "Yeah, it's my first day here, and I'm getting used to life on the space station. It's still very different from the ground."
"...That's pretty much it. Let's talk about the specific details when I get back."
The parents-in-law nodded at the same time, showed an awkward but polite smile, and said, "Okay, I wish you have a good time."
Jian Jian Yun kept smiling and didn't know what to say.
She also didn't expect that her old father would show up in a bathrobe when he was so excited. She was relieved when she saw him disappear from the screen.
"Actually, my dad is usually pretty steady. Maybe he was too happy this time. Fortunately, it was a phone call instead of a live broadcast, otherwise it would have been a joke." Jian Jianyun shook his head and said with a wry smile.
Wei Kang smiled guiltily: "It's okay, we are all a family. It's better to be casual. It doesn't matter even if other people see it."
He was not sure whether anyone else on the space station saw him when he made the call.
However, even if the astronauts saw it, they probably wouldn't spread it.
If it really doesn't work, if the news spreads, then it will be an embarrassment for the father-in-law, and it has nothing to do with him.
Thinking of this, Wei Kang suddenly puffed up his chest.
There is wifi in the space station, so when night falls, Wei Kang finishes washing and lies on the bed.
He took out his cell phone and started surfing the Internet.
The first thing I did was to send out the two photos taken inside and outside the cabin.
"I'm in the universe, looking up at the stars."
"The stars in the sky smiled at me and said, hello, welcome again!"
"Next time, I hope to be able to walk freely on the moon!"
"Also, Happy New Year!"
As soon as the photo was released, netizens who had been waiting for a long time became excited.
"Congratulations, Mr. Wei, how do you feel?"
"I also hope that one day I can release news in the universe."
"There is no space station positioning? Bad review."
"I'm so happy, how is the internet speed in the universe?"
"Are you wearing your long johns? Don't freeze, I'll feel bad."
"For takeout, open the door and get it. It takes too much effort to deliver this order. Don't order soup next time."
"Actually, I am also in the universe. This secret can no longer be kept."
“I retweeted a slut from space and I felt cool.”
"Every time like this, I will sigh that it is great to have money."
"What I'm saying is that the ability to make money is really powerful."
“If you have money, you can really do whatever you want, including going to the universe.”
"I have been following you for six years. I have watched you come along and I am really happy for you."
"Mr. Wei, I finally went to space. Can you bring me some local products?"
"The first Chinese billionaire to step on the stars and face the earth. I hope he is not the only one."
"If rich people have dreams, they should realize them. As for me, if I have dreams, I should reflect on them in my dreams. We all have a bright future."
"This kind of life has no regrets at all. It's not the life I want at all. I just like it when life is full of regrets."
"Please tell me the wifi password of the space station. I don't have enough data."
Netizens' teasing tone could not hide their excitement.
In this era when "the sea of stars" has become a mantra, everyone has a unique yearning for the starry sky.
Seeing my idol realize his dream of space, it would be a lie to say that I am not excited.
Every Chinese person has a sense of pride gushing out in his heart at this moment.
It is a kind of appreciation and recognition of one's own people, and an expectation for a better life in the future.
The road to the stars and the sea may really be at your feet.
In the next two days, Wei Kang released some photos of the Earth taken on the space station, as well as videos of eating, washing and exercising in space.
This time, he appeared together with Jian Lian Yun, perfectly recreating the honeymoon trip in space.
Although Wei Kang did not broadcast live, these videos and photos were released and triggered a craze on the Internet.
#spacehoneymoontrip, #ordinary people’s space travel, and other titles accounted for several hot searches at the same time and could not be found for a long time.
Netizens watched with curiosity and enthusiasm everything the couple did on the space station.
After all, astronauts still feel strange to netizens. Even though they often broadcast live broadcasts and expose their daily life on the space station to everyone, they still feel distant and not so down-to-earth.
But Wei Kang is different. Fans have a "one of their own" filter for him. Coupled with years of continuous attention, their feelings are also very deep, and they can perfectly enter his perspective and experience life in space.
Eating, sleeping, brushing teeth and washing face, and even going to the toilet, from Wei Kang's perspective, fans are born with a sense of intimacy, as if they are personally involved in the scene.
Therefore, this trip to the space station is more useful than saying "stars and sea", and even makes space travel more popular among people. This effect is beyond the expectations of the authorities.
In addition, Jian Lian Yun originally planned to walk outside the cabin, but since extravehicular activities are carried out under conditions of complete weightlessness, they mainly rely on human upper limbs for operation, which requires very high strength and endurance of the upper limbs.
This is a great challenge for women. Compared with the innate advantages of men’s arm strength, reminder and arm span, women’s control of the pressurized extravehicular spacesuit requires more effort and a lot of exercise. It takes a long time to complete, which is also a problem faced by female astronauts around the world.
However, Jianlianyun's training time was too short and her upper body strength was not up to standard. Just wearing a 240-pound space suit and operating in the cabin for a while made her arms sore and her hands were shaking so much that she could not hold things.
This cannot be compared with female astronauts who have been training for a long time, so she had to give up the activity of extravehicular walking.
As a result, she could only move around inside the cabin, and her main tasks were to provide support and take various videos and photos for her husband.
Of course, the two also took a lot of photos and videos. This honeymoon trip was considered a success.
On the fourth day, it was finally time to leave.
The two reluctantly said goodbye to the astronauts in the space station one by one.
In just a few days, the two sides have established a profound friendship.
I'm still a little reluctant to leave.
In fact, the two of them can stay on the space station for a few more days, but they will need to undergo 14 days of medical isolation after returning from space to re-adapt to the earth's air and gravity environment and to eliminate the influence of microbial mutations.
Including the 14 days of training before going, it will take a whole month to go back and forth.
In reality, one is the president of a pharmaceutical group and the other is the deputy chief physician of neurosurgery. They are both very busy at work. It is already very difficult to spare a month to realize their dreams.
If you add ten and a half days, you can, but it's not necessary.
Three days is enough for two people to experience everything on the space station.
The main reason is that the space of the space station is limited, and the two of them do not have any scientific research tasks. If they leave with their work, they can stay longer.
If it were the moon, Wei Kang would still be willing to spend an extra half month to cover every inch of the moon's surface with his footprints.
It was already a day after Wei Kang entered the carrier spacecraft again and returned to Earth.
This return trip was just like riding a high-speed train, quiet and smooth.
He didn't even notice when the spacecraft left the space station. He only noticed a slight vibration the moment it landed.
"The technology is so great." Wei Kang thought silently in his heart. Before he could react, he was carried out of the small cabin by a group of people.
The two sat on chairs, with their backs to the endless yellow Gobi, taking photos with the flying red flag and the spaceship.
Since their time on the space station was relatively short, they were not that weak.
After sitting for an interview and eating a nutritious meal.
When they arrived at the Aerospace Nursing Home in Beijing, the two of them could barely stand up.
"Haha, I feel like I'm not that tired after going to space." Wei Kang stood tremblingly against the wall and said happily.
Jian Jianyun sat on the bedside and was about to say something when the phone rang.
As she took out her mobile phone, she couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, it must be my dad looking for me. I hope he didn't wear a bathrobe this time. What happened last time was really funny. Let me tell you, this happened I can laugh at him forever.”
Wei Kang held on to the wall and came to the bedside, slowly lying down, feeling that his muscles all over his body suddenly relaxed.
Satisfied, he took out his phone and immediately saw a news feed.
"China's first 'Commercial Astronaut Training Plan' has been released, and ordinary people are expected to enter space."
He couldn't help but nod his head: "Yes, yes, it seems that our country's civil aerospace industry is really going to develop."
Just as he was about to click in and take a closer look, he heard Jian Lian Yun beside him suddenly sit up and let out an exclamation.
"What? The patient has hospital flu?"
