The launch of Shenzhou-18 was a complete success, and the three astronauts were finally about to enter the space station and reunite with their comrades-in-arms of Shenzhou-17.
However, it is worth mentioning that the three astronauts went on a business trip to space.
Not only did they bring all kinds of necessities of life within our cognition, but they also brought pistols that were beyond our cognition.
Many people may wonder why astronauts go to space with guns? Is it to protect against aliens?
Equipped with guns to protect against aliens?
Many people may have heard of Yang Liwei's "bizarre" encounter in space.
When Yang Liwei took Shenzhou 5 into space, in the manned module, he actually heard an extremely mysterious knock on the door.
According to his description in "A Day in Space", this knocking sound is like the knocking sound made by someone hitting an iron bucket with a mallet.
咚咚咚。
Enough.
What's even weirder is that this knock on the door is not one or two, but a few knocks from time to time, one after another.
In order to understand the doubts in his happiness, Yang Liwei also tried to be brave and looked out of the porthole, but he didn't see anything, and the knock on the door would still sound from time to time.
After Yang Liwei, other astronauts who entered space also heard such a knock on the door, not only the astronauts of the mainland, but also foreign astronauts also reported this strange knocking sound.
Based on this, many people may think that there may be extraterrestrial life in space, and they are the devil.
Therefore, it is only natural that astronauts are equipped with guns.
But what Okawa wants to tell you is that if there are really aliens, it is impossible to solve the problem with a gun.
Because, before the aliens can be dealt with with with the gun, the bullet will have destroyed the spacecraft first, or the bullet will not be able to fire normally if the shot is fired outside the spacecraft.
Speaking of which, the real reason why the astronauts are equipped with guns is actually for the repetition of the tragedy of the Soviet cosmonauts.
The lessons of the USSR must not be forgotten
Back in 1965, Soviet cosmonauts Beryaev and Leonov flew together on the Ascent 2 manned spacecraft on a manned mission.
Beryaev and Leonov
Their mission was completed very smoothly, and they thought that this mission would be completed smoothly like this, but when they returned safely, an accident happened.
When Leyaev and Leonov took the return capsule and returned to Earth, the positioning system and communication system of the return capsule suddenly failed, which directly led to a great deviation between the return route of the return capsule and the predetermined route.
In the end, the two astronauts landed more than 2,000 kilometers away from the intended location and landed in a primeval jungle.
You should know that when the astronauts first landed, their bodies were extremely weak.
And for these two astronauts, this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that this primeval jungle is full of the howls of wild beasts, tigers, wolves, and bears.
The two astronauts didn't have any weapons on their bodies, so once they were spotted by these beasts, the two of them were like a delicious meal.
Fortunately, things didn't go in such a bad direction, and a few days later, the search and rescue team found their traces through location information and successfully rescued them......
Since then, the Soviet Union has had a rule that astronauts must be equipped with guns when they go to space, in order to prevent them from returning to Earth and not being able to defend themselves in case of danger.
And other countries around the world have also learned from this and have begun to equip their own astronauts with guns.
When Yang Liwei went to space, he was equipped with a Type 64 pistol and 7 rounds of ammunition.
Type 64 pistol
Write at the end
Seeing this, I believe everyone has figured out the real reason why the Shenzhou 18 astronauts are equipped with guns.
As for the knock on the door that Yang Liwei heard at the beginning, it is necessary for Dachuan to give you an answer in the end.
The mysterious knocking sound that Yang Liwei heard is actually a normal physical phenomenon, which is caused by the slight deformation of the material on the inner wall of the cabin when the spacecraft is in space, due to the change of pressure in the cabin, rather than aliens knocking on the door outside.
Speaking of which, the phenomenon of this knocking sound is also a good thing, indicating that the cabin is very well sealed.
