A really great Russian-style space movie. The narrative in the first half is slightly relaxed, and there is no lack of old Maozi's unique stalks (such as wine, Lao Maozi's favorite). The climax of the second half is repeated, and there is no lack of exquisiteness in the grand scene. The character depiction of, shows the audience the great achievements of the heroes of Russia (to be precise, the former Soviet Union) in the journey of human space exploration.
Because it was adapted from historical facts, I immediately searched for stories about the first spacewalk of mankind after seeing the subtitles. The result was. . . Really life is far more exciting than the movie! ! ! ! !
The picture below shows the space capsule of Ascendant No. 2 (including the expanded air lock) that year. It can be said that the special effects team of the movie has achieved the true restoration and added a lot of color to the movie.
There are a total of two astronauts performing this Ascent 2 mission, and the one responsible for getting out of the cabin is Alexei Leonov. After the space capsule completed its first lap around the earth, Leonov started a spacewalk, which lasted about 12 minutes and 9 seconds (08:34:51–08:47:00hrs UTC). The flight path of the space capsule was approximately From the center of North Africa to Eastern Siberia. (Note: The Chinese version of Wikipedia says it takes about 10 minutes, and the exact time comes from the English version of Wikipedia).
Comrade Leonov’s spacewalk mission was just one, which was to fix a camera outside the air gate so that he could take pictures of his spacewalk. At the same time, there was a camera on his chest, and the shutter was controlled by The thread is attached to his lap so that he can also take photos of the space capsule during a spacewalk. However, after leaving the warehouse, his spacesuit swelled too much (referring to the appearance of a Michelin tire man), he finally could not touch the shutter on his leg.
When Leonov completed the extravehicular activities and was preparing to return to Ascend 2, because the space suit was too inflated (again, referring to the appearance of a Michelin tire man), he failed to enter the space capsule immediately. After several attempts and releasing part of the space suit’s gas, he returned to the space capsule safely (the degree of deflation exceeded the lower safety limit, so that the joints could move), and Comrade Leonov did not notify them via radio. Because this buddy is afraid of causing everyone's panic and feels that he can handle it, Comrade Leonov is indeed a typical fighting national hero style. And consistent with the movie, when the Soviet Union's live broadcast felt that there was a problem with the spacewalk, the live broadcast stopped. . . . . .
Comrade Leonov, who finally came in, encountered a new problem. The outer door of the air lock could not be sealed, as shown in the movie. What's the reason? It is caused by thermal deformation. Under direct sunlight from outer space, the metal hatch is deformed due to thermal expansion. Well, it was resolved later anyway.
Then, there is a failure of the automatic landing system, and the manual landing system must be activated, which is to manually control the landing of the space capsule. Then, because the space capsule was too narrow, the two tall and mighty combat ethnic astronauts could not perform their fists and feet, causing the two astronauts to fail to return to their seats in time, causing the spacecraft’s center of gravity to deviate for 46 seconds. The lack of space knowledge (please correct for inaccuracies), probably means that after starting the manual return process, you must ensure the flight attitude of the space capsule at a certain point in the orbit, and the deviation of the center of gravity will affect the flight attitude, and space flight +Returning to this matter is really a thousand miles away. . . . . . On this point, it’s actually not a major issue. What’s even more messy is that when returning, the orbital module should be separated from the return module. As a result, the two brothers are in such a good relationship. When the two compartments are separated, there is thrust. The result is that the orbital module and the separation compartment are connected by something that is constantly pulling together, and they jumped up together in a two-person turn in space. This also had an impact on the landing. According to the record, until the distance At a height of 100KM on the ground, the two brothers separated.
Since the cabin is not completely sealed, the oxygen supply system sends excessive oxygen into the cabin, which makes it easy to cause fires. The bridge segment is the same as the movie. Generally speaking, the space capsule should have a stable air pressure, but due to cracks, it has been leaking. As soon as the air pressure drops, the oxygen supply system will supply oxygen, but this is pure oxygen, so, Leaking air, replenishing pure oxygen, and finally the space capsule is full of pure oxygen. Well, luckily it didn't explode in the end.
During the landing process, due to the above reasons, the landing location of the return module deviated from the original landing location by 386 kilometers (Note: Many public accounts said that they were offset by more than 3,000 kilometers. This is a bit too far. 386km is from the English version of Wikipedia, which is more accurate. The location is 59:34 N 55:28 E, the time is March 19, 1965 9:02 GMT), it landed in the forest of Perm District, the primeval forest. Fortunately, our heroic fighting nation astronauts are used to seeing bears, wolves, and wind and snow. This is what the original text says. There are many bears and wolves in the spring estrus that live in this virgin forest. Aggressive. However, the fighting nations carry guns at all times. Yes, the astronauts carry standard pistols and sufficient ammunition. This accidental landing also gave birth to a pistol specially equipped for astronauts, the TP-82 astronaut pistol, which can fire both shotguns and flare bombs. A total of about 100 were produced, and they were officially equipped with astronauts in 1982.
As in the movie, after landing, the ground control center really didn’t know where the two brothers landed and whether they were still alive. rest.
Unlike the movie, the search and rescue personnel soon spotted the astronauts. However, because the area was really primitive and the forest was dense, the helicopter could not go down at all, so they could only airdrop some food and warmth to the brothers. Things, our heroic astronauts spent the first night after returning to Earth in the primeval forest, the temperature was about -5°C. Moreover, what’s even more funny is that I wanted to stay in the return cabin. As a result, the circuit system of the return cabin was completely out of control and the heating system was scrapped, but the electric fan was still blowing at full load. Well, imagine blowing electricity at -5°C. The feeling of a fan. Therefore, our astronaut really stayed outside the return capsule for the first night.
The next day, a rescue team finally reached the landing site by skiing, but there was no way to land a helicopter. Therefore, the rescue team built a cabin for the brothers and made a lot of fire. Our heroes finally Spent a comfortable night.
On the third day, the brothers slid out of this virgin forest by skiing, met with the helicopter, and later returned to the Baikonur space launch base.
The return pod is now on display in a museum near Moscow.
Additional report:
Consistent with the movie, Comrade Leonov violated the operating rules. He was indeed the first to enter the decompression chamber, and because he released too much gas in the space suit, he developed symptoms of decompression sickness.
The more cruel fact is that Comrade Leonov had a pill for suicide at the time. If he finally could not return to the space capsule, he would take the pill, and then Comrade Belyaev in the space capsule would have to put the air lock and Comrade Leonov abandoned them in space together.
Newly disclosed material: During the 12 minutes that Comrade Leonov was outside the cabin, he almost had a heat stroke. His body temperature rose by 1.8°C, and sweat accumulated to the height of his knees in the space suit.
Written at the end:
After understanding the above real history, and then watching the movie, it can be said that the screenwriter and director of the movie have successfully interpreted the history for us, and the special effects team has also contributed. I personally give this film a score of 8 or more. The radio enthusiasts in the film left a deep impression on me, and the whole film continues to show the warmth and power of human nature through delicate depictions. This is the warmth expressed from a nation that has experienced suffering.
At the same time, through the restoration of the film, everyone can understand how crazy they were for the space race during the Cold War. This space capsule in the film is now placed, who can sit in it? The crudeness is outrageous. In the film, Comrade Leonov's monologue about his own life experience is really a manifestation of the courage of the fighting nation. Having experienced life and death, I am fearless of life and death and dare to accept all challenges.
Thanks to the heroes and ordinary people of all colors who have made outstanding contributions to the human space industry.
