Chapter 728: Manned Landing on the Moon
Chapter 729
Next.
The entrance to the camp.
Yesterday's two officers showed up here on time.
At the door, after Gu Lu and Director Song said goodbye, they followed the two officers to board a military vehicle.
For the sake of the confidentiality of the college entrance examination papers, Gu Lu was not allowed to carry any electronic devices on his body.
After getting in the car.
An officer handed Gu Lu a satellite phone and said, "Mr. Gu, the manned lunar landing project is still in the stage of secrecy, so we will restrict the personal freedom of the research and development personnel involved in the project." So, before you get to the base yet, you can contact your family and friends to let them know the general situation. Once you're on the base, you're forbidden to have any contact with the outside world. ”
Gu Lu nodded in understanding.
The manned landing on the moon is indeed a state-level engineering project with a high level of secrecy.
Now, the public only knows that Huaguo has made a huge breakthrough in the lunar exploration project and is preparing for the launch of Chang'e-5.
But I don't know.
Huaguo has secretly prepared for a manned lunar landing project.
Estimate.
Until the China National Space Administration is completely sure that a manned landing on the moon will succeed, it does not plan to announce this plan to the outside world.
Gu Lu took the satellite phone handed over from the officer, thought for a few seconds, and called Su Xi.
Gu Lu has no family.
And the only one who can be regarded as a friend is estimated to be Su Xi.
After ringing a few times, Su Xi answered the phone.
"Hey, who are you?" Su Xi's slightly puzzled voice sounded.
"It's me, Gu Lu. Gu Lu pursed his lips and spoke.
"Teacher Gu, it's you!" Su Xi's voice immediately became pleasantly surprised, and then he seemed to realize something, and asked, "Can you call me, shouldn't you be ...... now?"
Su Xi knew about Gu Lu's proposition to take the college entrance examination.
According to normal circumstances, before the official end of the college entrance examination, Gu Lu should not be allowed to contact the outside world, let alone talk to her.
Gu Lu smiled bitterly, "Things are a bit complicated, I won't be able to explain it for a while, anyway, I'm not in the camp of the college entrance examination proposition now, but I'm going to another place to participate in another secret project, so I can get a chance to contact the outside world." ”
"And, if nothing else, I don't think it's going back for a long time. ”
Su Xi's tone obviously became lost, "Can't you come back after the college entrance examination?"
Gu Lu spoke, "It should be difficult to come back." ”
Su Xi: "Oh. ”
Before, Su Xi also planned to wait for Gu Lu to come back after the college entrance examination and take Gu Lu to relax.
But now this wish is estimated to be unattainable.
Su Xi said with concern, "Then you pay attention to your body, don't work so hard, stay up late, and pay attention to your diet." I don't want to see you in the hospital again this time. ”
Gu Lu was very helpful to Su Xi's nagging, "I will, when this project is completed, I will give myself a long vacation, and if you have time, we will travel the world together, wait for me!"
Su Xi nodded heavily, with a hint of crying in his voice, "Well, I'll wait for you!"
Hang up.
Gu Lu looked out the window and smiled bitterly, "It seems that I subconsciously set up a flag just now!"
Then, Gu Lu made another call to Bao Songquan.
Gu Lu and Bao Songquan had nothing to say hello to a big man, and after informing him of the general situation here, Gu Lu ended the call.
At last.
Gu Lu returned the satellite phone to the officer.
So far.
Gu Lu's contact with the outside world was officially cut off.
............
The R&D base of the manned lunar landing project is located in a large mountain north of Yanjing.
Around the base, an army is stationed.
While carrying out personal training tasks, he is responsible for the vigilance and defense of the manned lunar landing base.
And the two officers who came to pick up Gu Lu belonged to this army.
After passing through many security posts, the military vehicle stopped at the gate of the R&D base.
The base is built deep under the mountains.
After getting on the elevator on the ground, Gu Lu followed the two officers all the way to a position about thirty or forty meters underground.
The scale of this manned lunar landing R&D base is obviously much larger than the Chang'e-4 R&D base that I went to before.
After all.
The last time it was just a small detector was developed.
But this time.
What is to be developed is a manned spacecraft that can land people on the moon.
The two are not on the same level in terms of volume and weight.
Not to mention that there are countless technical hurdles to overcome.
............
Inside the base with a strong metallic texture.
Gu Lu saw Wu Zheng again.
Compared with three years ago, Wu Zheng has obviously experienced a lot.
This is evidenced by Wu Zheng's sloppy stubble and messy hair.
Gu Lu and Wu Zhengyi met.
The two of them had a big hug.
"Gu Lu, I've finally waited for you!" Wu Zheng had a relieved smile on his face.
In the three years since the launch of the manned lunar landing project, Wu Zheng has not had an easy time.
The manned landing on the moon is a completely new project.
A manned lunar landing is not the same as the Chang'e lunar exploration program.
Chang'e lunar exploration is to send a machine to the moon.
Even if you fail, the consequences are still tolerable.
But what about a manned landing on the moon?
It was to send astronauts to the moon.
Once it fails.
The consequences are unimaginable.
So.
This requires the project team on Wu Zheng's side not to allow the slightest mistake when carrying out the manned lunar landing program.
Moreover.
Wu Zheng had nothing to draw from.
Although in the sixties of the last century, the United States took the lead in completing the manned lunar landing program.
But......
The manned lunar landing project is a confidential document for the United States, so naturally no information will be leaked.
The reason for the technical differences between China and the United States on board.
Wu Zheng is almost equivalent to groping from scratch.
At that time, the director of the Space Administration set a hard task for Wu Zheng to complete the manned lunar landing project in 2025 and become the second country in the world to achieve a manned lunar landing.
But now.
Three years have passed.
Wu Zheng did not have any confidence to say that he could send Huaguo's astronauts to the moon four years later, that is, in 2025.
At this stage.
The manned lunar landing project has encountered many obstacles.
Wu Zheng was obviously overstretched to deal with alone.
At this time.
Wu Zheng thought of Gu Lu.
I thought of the man who turned the tide in the Chang'e-4 lunar exploration project.
Thereupon.
After inquiring about Gu Lu's current situation.
Wu Zheng made a quick decision and asked Gu Lu to take Gu Lu to the camp to assist him in his work.
