Chapter 507: Moon Base

Looking at the earth from here, the earth is like an enlarged version of the blue moon, with clouds swirling, like a shining pearl in the vast and quiet universe.

Surrounded by a dead lunar space, empty and desolate, the eye can see gray lunar soil.

There is no doubt that it is a hundred times worse than the worst desert on Earth. Without the protection of spacesuits, it would only take a few seconds for humans to die.

Only this lonely blue planet hanging in the sky is so different that it is breathtaking.

So when the group got out of the spaceship, they subconsciously stared at the earth for a long time, and their mood was somewhat uneasy.

Through Lin Han's consciousness, Gaia also "saw" this scene, and Lin Han also clearly felt the fluctuations in her spiritual worldโ€”very much like some kind of emotion.

"Gaia, you've become ...... It's getting more and more like a person. He suddenly said with some emotion.

"Is there one?" said Gaia.

"Am I becoming less and less human, it's like the penetration of gold and lead, change is a two-way street. โ€

Gaia was silent for a few seconds: "You still have her, you are a person of flesh and blood and feelings." โ€

Lin Han didn't speak, but turned his head and looked at Luo Xuan beside him quietly, with a little complexity in his gentle eyes.

Luo Xuan also turned her head with feeling: "What's wrong?"

Lin Han smiled and gently tapped her hood: "I'm fine." โ€

Luo Xuan didn't laugh at this small action, but held Lin Han's hand tightly through the two heavy spacesuits, with a little determination in his eyes.

Her cheeks were a little flushed, and she didn't know if it was the low gravity of the moon that was causing the blood to run up, or if it was something else.

A wordless emotion surged up, and Lin Han's heart couldn't help but feel warm.

After a while, he coughed a few times, dispelled other thoughts, turned around and said, "Okay, we have successfully come to the moon, let's act according to the plan." I believe that in five years at most, the moon will become a transit point for human interstellar colonization, and this transit station will belong to us. โ€

"Lu Jian, Liang Wenshan, the two of you are in charge of the robot and the lunar rover, explore the 12 candidate areas, and find out the most suitable deployment point as soon as possible. โ€

As early as a few years ago, Vientiane Space Exploration Company began a series of analyses and comparisons of the lunar environment and landforms, and finally selected 12 locations in the southern part of Chenghai as candidate sites for the establishment of a lunar base mission.

After the location is confirmed, a simple lunar base will be built on the basis of the lunar spacecraft.

Then, through several subsequent missions, this base will be continuously improved, and finally an interstellar transit station will be established on the moon.

Due to its low gravitational pull, the Moon escapes only one-fifth of the Earth's speed. The escape velocity of the Earth, or the second cosmic velocity, is 11.2 km/s, and that of the Moon is 2.4 km/s, which is faster than the initial velocity of a tank shell.

Theoretically, according to the kinetic energy formula, this alone means that launching a spacecraft on the moon will save more than 95% of energy.

Coupled with the absence of atmospheric resistance, launching a spacecraft on the moon is simply not too easy, and it can be launched by an electromagnetic launch device.

Next, Lu Jian and Liang Wenshan took a lunar rover and took several robots shaped like spiders to explore the vicinity.

As for Lin Han and Luo Xuan, they are not idle.

First, the two separated the return capsule from the main body of the spacecraft, and then adjusted the main body of the spacecraft to unfold it into a lunar base vehicle.

After the second deployment of this base car, it is the foundation for the construction of the "Chenghai base".

After all, it is not as intelligent as the Red Police base car, so this process still requires a lot of manual operation, Luo Xuan is mainly responsible for operating in the cabin, and Lin Han is outside the cabin.

After about 2 hours of busywork, the lunar spacecraft was divided into two parts, one was the return capsule responsible for the return trip, and the other was the lunar base rover with operational capabilities.

Now wait for the results of Lu Jian and Liang Wenshan's exploration, drive the base car over for a second deployment, and then start the reactor and set up the base framework, and they can return to the earth.
