The Qinglong-class 002 spacecraft officially entered orbit on the side orbit of the new Kaohsiung Space Station. The so-called side orbit is defined by the Space Development Committee itself. Generally, the orbit of a space station or a large spacecraft is the main orbit, and the side orbit is temporarily used by the spacecraft. .

新高雄空间的侧轨道为16条，依次是上侧轨道1～4线，下侧轨道1～4线，左侧轨道1～4线，右侧轨道1～4线。

In fact, these side tracks are equivalent to the berths of the port, which means that the new Kaohsiung space station can dock 16 spacecraft at a time.

At this time, in the Qinglong-class spacecraft 002, the six astronauts had already left the life-support cabin, changed into the space suits in the cabin, and moved around in the spacecraft.

However, as the pilots, Zhang Yunfeng, Chen Liang, and the correspondent Li Xuan, they couldn't take it lightly. They were in the cockpit of the spaceship at this time.

"Kaohsiung base, this is the Qinglong 2 spacecraft, please come back when you receive it." Li Xuan communicated with the fourth control room of the Kaohsiung ground control center through communication equipment.

"Qinglong 2 spaceship, this is the Kaohsiung base, I have received your message."

"Kaohsiung base, Qinglong 2 spacecraft requests docking orbit."

"Qinglong 2 spacecraft, allow the docking of the upper track 1 line."

"Kaohsiung base, the Qinglong 2 spacecraft received it." Li Xuan temporarily turned off the communication microphone, and turned his head to report to Zhang Yunfeng: "Captain, the Kaohsiung base allows the spacecraft to dock with the space station on the upper orbital line 1."

"Received, ready to merge and dock."

Zhang Yunfeng and Chen Liang concentrated on adjusting the track of the Qinglong 002 spacecraft to the upper track 1 line with the assistance of the autopilot system.

At 12:16, Qinglong-class No. 002 successfully docked with the New Kaohsiung Space Station.

The docking operation between Qinglong 002 and the new space station was broadcast live to audiences all over the world on multiple high-definition cameras.

"It's the first time I saw the new Kaohsiung space station so clearly, it really looks like a beehive." —— Dongdao user

"It feels bigger than the International Space Station." ——Zhao Zilong, Shijiazhuang

"@柏家庄赵子龙, please let go of your feelings, the new Kaohsiung space station is already more than twice the size of the international space station." - Lu Bu, Baotou

"There is no harm if there is no comparison. I heard that Mi Lijia intends to extend the service life of the International Space Station to 2030. It seems to be a financial problem." - Grapevine

"The shredder in the developed world is not a (ω)hiahiahia for nothing." - Jupiterian
"Back then, the chairman of Yinhe Technology said that their goal was the stars and the sea. Many people took it as a joke. Now it has been less than two years, and they are playing in the sky." - Prophet Emperor

"@句话帝, I remember this incident, it was mentioned at the 2017 Economic Figure Awards Ceremony." - Vicissitudes of life

"Wow, the astronauts have entered the space station." - Shanmei user

The No. 9 cabin of the new Kaohsiung space station, this cabin is docked with the Qinglong-class spacecraft 002, and the airtight hatch on the side of the passage bridge close to the spacecraft is slowly opened.

As the passage bridge connecting the spaceship and the space station, there are three airtight hatches. Zhang Yunfeng took the maintainer Fang Haibo, space operators Qin Xuexue and Liao Qingsong, and drifted across the passage bridge with some discomfort.

As for the co-pilot Chen Liang and correspondent Li Xuan, they must stay on board the spacecraft to prevent emergencies.

After the four of Zhang Yunfeng swiped their cards, they entered the passcode.

Bark!The last airtight hatch close to cabin 9 of the space station slowly opened, and a cabin similar to the ground simulation training ground appeared in front of the four of them.

As the four people stepped into the No. 9 cabin of the new Kaohsiung Space Station, this also officially marked the official completion of manned spaceflight by the Galaxy Consortium.

Everyone in the fourth control room of the Kaohsiung ground control center immediately burst into applause, and many viewers who were watching the live broadcast also applauded.

According to the plan, the new Kaohsiung space station will have 15 permanent residents, and can accommodate about 50 temporary stay personnel. This temporary refers to a month.

"Haibo, learn from your team, and Qingsong and I, let's check each cabin." Zhang Yunfeng ordered.

"Okay." Fang Haibo nodded, and he and Qin Xuexue went to the next cabin.

Zhang Haifeng and Liao Qingsong did a simple inspection in cabin 9. Although the space station has a self-inspection system, the system program may not be reliable. They manually inspected it once, just in case.

The four of them interacted with the audience on the ground while checking.

Zhang Yunfeng pointed to a cabin full of unknown equipment and introduced: "This cabin is one of the core cabins of the new Kaohsiung space station, and its importance is no less than that of the general control cabin and the energy storage cabin."

"This device is called an electromagnetic field generator. Through the electromagnetic field generator, the entire space station can generate a protective magnetic field. This magnetic field blocks some cosmic rays and charged particles from approaching."

"Living in the universe, cosmic rays are very dangerous. Without these protective measures, astronauts are very vulnerable to excessive radiation. I believe everyone knows the consequences of excessive radiation..."

Zhang Yunfeng talked eloquently with the audience, while Liao Qingsong was relatively taciturn. He carefully checked the electromagnetic field generator and the entire cabin, and found that there was no problem, so he said to Zhang Yunfeng:
"Captain, there is no problem with this equipment and cabin."

"Then let's go to the next cabin."

In one afternoon, after they inspected all the compartments of the space station, they moved the 002 tons of cargo on the Qinglong 20 spacecraft into the space station.

This time, the 20 tons of goods that came up with Zhang Yunfeng and the others were mainly living supplies for them, especially 5 tons of domestic water, which is very important for astronauts living on the space station.

At 17:20 in the afternoon, the astronauts began to eat. Obviously, many viewers are very interested in space food and dining.

"Every audience, you must be very interested in what astronauts eat, so I will briefly introduce it." Zhang Yunfeng took out an aluminum-sealed bag from the food warehouse, and then he and Liao Qingsong took five more of these bags.

Back to cabin 6 of the space station, here is the dining room and kitchen of the space station.

"These bags, one bag is a meal for one person." Zhang Yunfeng picked up one of the bags and explained.

"Captain, the audience asked you what's inside." Qin Xuexue looked at the holographic screen and said.

Zhang Yunfeng opened one of the bags and explained: "In one bag, there are one serving of staple food, two servings of meat, one serving of vegetables, one serving of fruit, and one serving of snacks. As for drinks or drinking water, you will know later."

The staple food he took was something similar to baked naan. This thing is dehydrated food. On one of the special processing tables in the kitchen, he pulled out a water injection pipe, inserted the head of the water injection pipe into the bag, and pressed the baked naan button. The water injection pipe has just injected an appropriate amount of water.

"Now that water has been added, put the staple food bag into the microwave oven, and put the meat bag and vegetable bag into the special microwave oven, and press the heating button."

"And then there's drinks or drinking water and of course soup and stuff like that, they're here."

Zhang Yunfeng pointed to a machine similar to a vending machine on the side, pressed the option of apple juice, and a capsule popped out of the machine, the size of the capsule was about the size of a small sausage.

"This granule capsule comes in various beverages and soups." After Zhang Yunfeng finished speaking, he took out a special bottle from the kitchen cabinet.

"See if the bottle is empty, open the top here, put the capsule inside, and then pour cold water into the bottle. If it's soup, it's hot water." Zhang Yunfeng explained while operating.

After injecting water, you can see the capsules in the translucent bottle dissolve quickly.

"When drinking, just press the pump at the bottom of the bottle, and this pump can squeeze the drink out."

Zhang Yunfeng opened his mouth, pressed the pump, and a small water polo sprayed out from the top outlet, and the water polo floated directly into his mouth.

After a while, the food in the microwave was finished, and the other astronauts began to eat.

"Today I am very happy to introduce the space life of astronauts to you. Time flies like a white horse, and the live broadcast will end here. Here we wish everyone in Blue Star a happy New Year! See you next time."

Zhang Yunfeng smiled and shook his hands with the audience, then he logged off the live broadcast.
