Chapter 760

Wu Zheng urgently called Gu Lu back so that he could be in charge of the lunar module.

Inside the conference room.

Jiang He and Gu Lu finalized the specific matters.

Start today.

Gu Lu officially settled in the R&D department of the lunar landing spacecraft of the manned lunar landing project.

in the department.

Gu Lu's main task is the design and development of the lunar module.

In the R&D department of the lunar spacecraft, Jiang He gave Gu Lu a lot of authority.

In simple terms.

That is, Gu Lu can transfer any funds and personnel in the department without anyone's approval.

It is precisely because of Wu Zheng's trust in Gu Lu.

made Jiang He give the green light to Gu Lu all the way.

After speaking, Jiang He patted Gu Lu's shoulder heavily, "Professor Gu, I can pin all my hopes on you!"

Now the difficult situation faced by the R&D department of the lunar spacecraft, Jiang He thinks that it will be difficult to break the situation with his strength.

Therefore......

Jiang He could only choose to pin his hopes on Gu Lu.

I hope that Gu Lu can lead their entire department to achieve a turnaround against the wind.

Gu Lu nodded, his face became much more solemn, "I will do my best!"

A kind smile appeared on Jiang He's face, "Then Professor Gu, I look forward to your good news." ”

"Come, you should be hungry after talking for so long, let's put aside the work for the time being, let's eat first!" Wu Zheng stood up and said with a smile.

…………

So, that's it.

Gu Lu settled down in the lunar spacecraft department.

Jiang He really gave Gu Lu a lot of permission, as he said when they met at the time.

Gu Lu was not polite.

directly transferred a few researchers in the department who had a good technical level and came over to help him.

The design of the lunar module is a complex task.

Gu Lu first took the part of the lunar module of the Apollo 11 lunar spacecraft that Jiang Hejie copied and carefully observed after dismantling.

After getting some inspiration.

Gu Lu began to draw the design drawings of the new lunar module.

This drawing took more than two months.

Over the course of more than two months.

Jiang He has been observing Gu Lu's every move.

Seeing that Gu Lu only stayed in the workshop for the past two months, writing and drawing on a stack of papers, and rarely did the actual operation, Jiang He was inevitably a little disappointed.

Jiang He was worried.

I am very worried that Gu Lu is a scientific research worker who only understands theory, but does not know practical work, and can only talk on paper.

But no matter how worried he is, Jiang He can only wait silently.

Because he couldn't have punched himself in the face.

That's it.

Until the beginning of March.

As soon as he got to work that day, an employee of a department ran to Jiang He and said that Gu Lu had something to look for him.

Jiang He was subconsciously surprised after hearing this.

But he still chose to follow the employee all the way to Gu Lu's studio.

Gu Lu's studio room.

At this time, quite a few people had gathered.

Most of them are core researchers in the Lunar Spacecraft Division.

Even.

Wu Zheng, the leader of the manned lunar landing project, also appeared here.

It's just that after scanning around the room, Jiang He didn't see Gu Lu's figure.

Jiang He was stunned for a moment, walked up to Wu Zheng and asked, "Wu Zheng, ...... this?"

Wu Zheng smiled slightly, and replied, "It was Gu Lu who summoned us here and said that he wanted to conduct a demonstration of the lunar module?"

"The lunar module argument ......" Jiang Hekou muttered, and then asked, "What about Gu Luren?"

"He's going to print some materials, and he'll be back soon. Wu Zheng replied with a smile.

Sure enough......

Gu Lu soon came back with a stack of printed materials.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. ”

After apologizing, Gu Lu distributed the materials in his hand to everyone in the room.

After the distribution, Gu Lu clapped his hands with a smile on his face, "Everyone, this is a set of design plans for the lunar module that I have worked out in more than two months, and the materials you hold in your hands have a fairly detailed introduction to the plan. ”

"And the purpose of my gathering here today is to brainstorm whether my design plan for the lunar module is feasible or not. If it doesn't work, I'll go back and try to fix it. If possible, discuss some of the areas where improvements can be made. ”

"So, while you watch, I'll talk ......"

After coughing lightly, Gu Lu slowly spoke.

On the Jiang River's side, after opening the cover of the document, he saw the design of the lunar module drawn by Gu Law Firm in the center of the first page.

At the same time, I also understood what Gu Lu had been busy with in the past two months.

and clearly perceptible.

The new type of lunar module designed by Gu Lu is much more complex than that of the Apollo spacecraft.

“…… The new lunar module I designed was upgraded from the second stage of the Apollo spacecraft to the third stage. These three levels include a deceleration stage, a landing stage, and an up-and-down upgrade. ”

"The deceleration stage is thrown away after the deceleration brake enters the lunar orbit, and then the upper upgrade provides power to continue to slow down and fall to the moon, and the astronauts complete the lunar mission and then return to the lunar orbit with the landing stage from the upper upgrade. ”

The secondary structure was upgraded to a tertiary structure.

This is the first change in the new lunar module designed by Gu.

Of course......

There is more than one innovation point in this new lunar module designed by Gu Law Firm.

One of the boldest and most surprising innovations was that Gu Lu directly made the upgrade of the new lunar module not a sealed cabin.

In other words, astronauts only need to rely on extravehicular spacesuits and umbilical cords to maintain, which is like landing on the moon in an "open-top car".

Directly exposes astronauts to the environment of outer space.

At first glance, this design looks quite incredible.

Even, in the eyes of Jiang He, the danger factor of this design to astronauts is even greater than that of Apollo 11 back then.

But.

After carefully looking at Gu Lu's schematic diagram of this design, Jiang He didn't think so.

On the contrary, I admired Gu Lu a little.

First of all.

What needs to be clear is the positioning of the lunar module.

And the positioning of the lunar module is a means of transportation.

The lunar module is only responsible for completing the round-trip between the lunar surface and the circumlunar orbit in a few hours, not a means of transportation.

And this means of transportation is still disposable and short-term.

In addition to the stable outer space environment near the moon, even if the lunar module is designed as an open top, it will not pose much threat to the personal safety of astronauts.

So.

There are no drawbacks to this design.

But there are a whole lot of advantages to this convertible design.

The most obvious advantage is that the weight of the lunar lander is greatly reduced, the number of astronauts who have landed on the moon can be doubled, and the landing stage only provides the function of landing and take-off support and carrying working equipment on the lunar surface.

This design ......

In addition to being amazing, Jiang He can't find another suitable word to describe it.
