Chapter 998 Mir Launch

Many people are familiar with the Mir space station. It is a large space station. In history, it was launched in 1986 and became a crystallization of the Soviet space industry. However, for various reasons, it was not until Russia in later generations that it was already 1996. It was considered to be a complete construction. It became a behemoth with a length of 87 meters and a total weight of 123 tons. After operating in orbit for 15 years, it fell into the earth due to frequent failures and completed its mission.

At that time, because the Soviet Energy rocket was not mature at all, it was always launched using the Proton launch vehicle. The maximum carrying capacity of this launch vehicle was only about 20 tons. Therefore, the various compartments launched in several batches were only more than 100 tons!

But now, it is completely different! A few years ahead of history, the Energy Rocket has matured and has carried out several successful launches in succession! Therefore, the Soviet space program is moving forward with great strides! The Blizzard project and the Mir space station project were developed simultaneously, especially the Mir space station, which will usher in its first launch today. The core compartment of this launch is 110 tons!

Even if other cabins are not launched, this core cabin alone is enough to become a super large space station! After this core cabin is launched, the Soviet Union will launch other cabins one after another, eventually making this space station a behemoth with a mass of more than 400 tons in orbit!

The Mir at this time is definitely not the Mir of that year! Moreover, although the name is handed over to the Mir, it is definitely not for the purpose of peace. Its launch is purely for the purpose of occupying space!

The Mir Space Station is a combat weapon space station!

When the current core module is launched, it has six pairs of interfaces, among which both sides are used to connect other modules, and the remaining four pairs of interfaces can accommodate four space shuttles at the same time!

The Blizzard Space Shuttle has also launched an unmanned launch! The next launch will be a man-controlled flight that connects to the Mir cabin!

In addition to four space shuttles, it can also dock with the Sixuya laser cannons, replenish new energy to the Sixuya and extend the life of this space weapon. When there is a mission, the space shuttle can be dispatched at any time!

Now, the development of space in the Soviet Union sounds a bit sci-fi!

When the blizzard was launched, Andre was still in East Germany and did not catch up. Now, Andre must of course be absent from the launch of the Mir cabin!

Everyone was working nervously. From the big screen here, you can see the Energy Rocket standing on the launch pad, with its extremely thick torso, bringing an incomparable beauty.

"Ten minutes to prepare." As time goes by, the countdown to launch finally ushered in!

There was no noise in the entire launch hall. When the countdown finally reached zero, the launcher pressed the launch button.

The launch platform was instantly covered by white smoke. In the envelope, the Energy Rocket slowly left the launch platform and began to take off with the huge core module of the Mir!

Launch, launch! The Energy Rocket after the ignition was extremely excited. It carried its own payload and traveled in space again. For it, the feeling of taking off was so beautiful!

Take off, take off! Leave the dense atmosphere and enter that dark space!

Discard the bundled booster and continue flying! The white line on the big screen and the pre-planned white line almost exactly matches the ones!

"Successfully launched!" Finally, the hall was filled with joy.

In space, the Energy rocket that completed its launch mission burned and fell down, and the load on its back was revealed in space!

This is a cabin with a length of more than 80 meters, almost as long as the Mir assembled in later generations!

At this time, the solar panels on both sides of it are slowly unfolding! After it is unfolded, various equipment in the cabin begins to be gradually started!

As a core module, it has various functions such as navigation, communication, attitude control, climate control, etc. The next group of astronauts can take the Soyuz spacecraft or the Blizzard space shuttle, dock with it, enter it, and carry out various work and life!

The test of the Mir cabin is constantly being carried out. After the test is completed, it will welcome the first group of residents. At the Baikonur Space Launch Base, a Soyuz spacecraft is already waiting!

This large space station, just this core module, can accommodate fifteen astronauts!

The core module of the Mir space station is accurately launched into orbit!

"Congratulations, Comrade Grushko." Andre said to Grushko beside him. He was the main person in charge of the project. Now, when launched, everyone is extremely happy.

"It belongs to our Soviets," Grushko said: "We really hope that this space station can be built as soon as possible. By then, the entire space will belong to our Soviets!"

The entire space belongs to the Soviets! When the space laser cannon was launched, the entire space was already the Soviets!

"Yes, this space will eventually belong to our Soviets," Andre said: "This is very beneficial for us to maintain order in world peace."

"Probably, this is also the reason for the naming of our Mir." Grushko said.

The launch of Mir announces the arrival of a new era! The Soviets not only have unmanned space laser cannons, but also human space stations. In the future, if the Soviets want to salvage a satellite in space, they don’t have to launch a space shuttle from the ground. They just need to drive the space shuttle from the space station to complete it! It greatly increases randomness and reduces costs!

Moreover, in addition to being used to recycle space garbage, the space shuttle can also be loaded with other things in the cargo warehouse, such as laser cannon cabins, space nuclear bombs, and aerospace fighter jets that are beginning to investigate!

The revolver-style launching aerospace fighter has now officially begun to demonstrate that if the plan can be carried out, the Soviets will have the world's first space combat force!

It can be said that in the future, no country could successfully launch satellites without the consent of the Soviets! The space in the future belongs to the Soviets!

With infinite imagination about the future, Andre left the Dhahran Space Base. The next stop is the Iraqi capital, Baghdad!
Chapter completed!
