Features: Throughout history, the vast universe has always attracted human attention with its unique charm. Due to the limitations of technological levels, ancient people could only transform their dreams of flying into beautiful myths and legends. Today, with the advancement of modern technology, human dreams are about to come true. The blueprint for future space travel is envisioned as follows: Future passenger spacecraft will differ from current ones, resembling commercial airplanes more. They will take off from horizontal runways rather than vertical launches. After purchasing tickets, passengers can board the spacecraft. Before takeoff, all remaining passengers must remember to fasten their seatbelts to avoid drifting away in zero gravity. After accelerating on the runway, the spacecraft will quickly ascend into the sky, followed by its departure from Earth and entry into space. This book focuses on the structure and development trends of space stations—space stations in outer space. By reading this book, readers can not only gain scientific and popular knowledge about manned spaceflight but also understand the arduous journey of human dreams coming true.
