章節 122: Chapter 118: Moving into the Space Station_1

On the morning of November 19 at 6 a.m., at Qiongzhou Space Launch Site.

Six astronauts took the oath at the launch ceremony, wearing the cabin suits from Xinyuan and each carrying a small air conditioner. They proceeded through the media-lined red carpet and boarded the Coaster.

The spacesuits manufactured for Xinyuan were more advanced and lightweight. After due consideration, the Manned Space Committee decided to adopt Xinyuan's standard spacesuit for this Unity mission.

Since they were already using private enterprise rockets and spacecraft, there was no need to stick to their own cumbersome spacesuits and suffer embarrassment. Moreover, Unity was a spacecraft, and it wasn't very convenient for the commander to manually operate the controls in a bulky suit, as it might lead to accidental touches.
