631 “After Fast Traveling and Sleeping with the Villain” World Twelve, Love Rival Her Brother (57)

Time flies, and life always moves forward in what seems to be a highly repetitive day.

Only when some big festivals come, will you suddenly realize that it is the end of another year before you know it.

On Christmas Day, Xue Xue and Xiao Yao spent a sweet world together.

In the morning, they attended an astronomy lecture and, with the help of virtual reality and augmented reality, experienced the perspective of the Earth from a space capsule and simulated how astronauts perform daily tasks in a weightless state.

That’s a really different feeling.

After breaking out of the frame, the entire field of vision is broadened.

“It would be great if space travel could be realized one day.”

“Although it has been realized to a certain extent now, I hope it will not just reach low-Earth orbit.”

Currently, there are companies in the world that are planning space tourism, and they are all focusing on developing “sub-orbital space tourism” with relatively low technical thresholds and costs.

“You can imagine it as a cosmic version of a roller coaster.” On the day he saw the relevant news, Xiao Yao happened to be sitting next to Xue Xue. Seeing her curious face, he explained: “The spaceship will carry passengers to the edge of the universe and drive at a high altitude without gravity for a period of time, giving passengers the experience of overlooking the earth and floating in a space capsule.”

“How high is that?”

“Well, it generally refers to an altitude of more than 100 kilometers. It is defined by the International Aviation Federation. It is also called the Kármán line. It is the interface between the atmosphere and space. The speed required to maintain flight lift at this altitude exceeds the orbital speed.”

“Well, does that count as going into space?”

“It is true that it has entered space, broadly speaking, but because the flight trajectory intersects with the atmosphere or the earth’s surface, it cannot complete a complete orbit.”

Xue Xue suddenly realized.

“I see, then I understand.”

Looking at subsequent reports on the size of the space economy market and future flight booking fares, Xue Xue sighed: “It’s really entertainment for the rich.”

Although the Xue family’s economic conditions are quite good, the lowest ticket is equivalent to one or two years of work income of Xue Anbang and Yang Xiaoxiao.

“Do you want to ride too?”

“Well, you should ask in another way.”

“Huh?”

“If conditions permit, wouldn’t anyone want to take a ride?”

Hearing this, Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

“The cost will definitely get lower and lower.”

“But it will take a long time before ordinary people can afford it.” Xue Xue tilted her head.”And the number of passengers it can carry at one time is only in the single digits. It’s hard to compare with airplanes or high-speed rail no matter how you think about it.”

Xiao Yao blinked.

“I will try my best.”

“Huh?”

“I will try to take you on a space trip with me in my lifetime.”

Xiao Yao’s eyebrows were smiling, and his bright pupils were shining.

Although his attitude was not particularly serious, Xue Xue, who knew Xiao Yao well enough, felt immediately that the man’s seriousness in saying these words might be comparable to the vows at a wedding.

In an instant, her heart beat wildly.

Especially after Xiao Yao leaned closer.

The over-amplified heartbeat sound creates an illusion like tinnitus.

“Okay,” she heard herself say, “I believe you can do it.”

Since then, Xue Xue has always paid attention to this information and reports unconsciously.

Xiao Yao also noticed this. It happened that their professor said that the space agency, academic research institutions and local governments were cooperating to hold an astronomy lecture in December. After asking about the detailed plan, Xiao Yao felt that the content was well arranged, so he asked for two tickets through the other party.

A total of four lectures were held, which were held on weekends of two weeks. Xiao Yao got the tickets for Christmas day, so he directly scheduled them into the appointment schedule.

At the end, each participant also received a small gift.

It’s a blind box.

Xue Xue couldn’t wait to open it.

“So cute!”

What she got was a model of an astronaut hugging the earth. It was so lifelike and the details were carefully made that Xue Xue couldn’t put it down.

“Where’s yours?”

she asked Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao picked it up and shook it.

It’s a rocket.

“Wow, we two got different ones.” Xue Xue looked very happy.”I want to put it on the desk.”

“Yeah.”

Seeing her high spirits, Xiao Yao felt that his mood also became excited.

After having lunch, the two went to a nearby movie theater for a walk. They originally planned to watch a movie, but they gave up because they forgot to make a reservation and the tickets were sold out early. Later, they simply bought tickets for the matinee of the amusement park. Although they only played two facilities, they got a spot to watch the fireworks in advance. The two took selfies, held hands, and kissed under the bright night sky. It was the first time they had such a great time.

And these beautiful memories will be immortalized under the witness of the fireworks that are as gorgeous as flowing fire.
