Chapter 261: Bombardment of the Comet
In fact, the moment Zhang Wei, Liu Hai, Qin Xiaobu, and Zhang Zhijian arrived on the moon, their goal had been achieved, and now they can return to the earth, but it is rare to travel to the moon once, of course, they must experience life on the moon. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first experience is to see the Earth from the moon.
Zhang Wei was on the surface of the moon facing the earth at this time, observing the earth from here, what he saw was a bright blue pearl inlaid in the dark sky, beautiful, extremely shocking, in addition, the earth seen on the moon is very large, even more than ten times larger than the sun.
In addition, observing the universe from the moon is also a new experience, even if it is daytime on the moon at this time, the moon's sky is still black, in the sky, in addition to the magnificent earth, there are also stars in the sky, but these stars do not twinkle, not because the stars have become obedient, but for another reason:" The reason why you feel the twinkle when you look at the stars on the earth is because the atmosphere around the earth is uneven and moving, causing the light to refract and change, and this is the principle of shaking when looking at the scenery through the asphalt road in summer, and the moon has no atmosphere, so naturally there is no flickering effect. ”
After seeing the earth and the stars, Zhang Wei was ready to take a round-the-world trip on the moon, and he had already made relevant preparations and transported a flying car to the moon.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Wei, Liu Hai, Qin Xiaobu, and Zhang Zhijian got on the flying car and started a trip around the moon, and the live broadcast screen also switched to their perspective, and more than one billion viewers will travel around the moon with them, which has also been arranged a long time ago, and the relevant equipment has been technically transformed to ensure that there is a signal during the live broadcast.
The audience was hooked.
"The biggest streamer in history has been born!"
"The live broadcast of the moon travel is definitely the most exciting live broadcast in history, I can't accept it!"
"Guanghan Palace, I want to see Guanghan Palace, as well as Fairy Chang'e and Jade Rabbit. ”
"It's impossible for Chang'e to have a drop, but it is possible to run into aliens, Dr. Zhang, you have to take it easy, and run away if you encounter aliens, otherwise if you are captured by aliens and breeded, we humans on Earth will lose the greatest genius ever." ”
"There are really aliens on the moon, it is said that when the United States landed on the moon in 1969, the television signal suddenly stopped for a few minutes, because Armstrong met aliens on the moon, and the aliens also warned the earthlings to leave the moon, and those aliens have high-tech technology that humans can't reach, and it only takes them an hour at most to destroy the earth. And the United States has not dared to go to the moon again for so many years because it is afraid of aliens on the moon. ”
"Nimei's alien, you write science fiction, right?"
While the audience was talking, Zhang Wei had already set off in a flying car, shuttling quickly on the desolate moon.
There are no fairy Chang'e, no moon goddess, no animals, no plants, no buildings, no aliens, only craters everywhere...... The moon shown in the live broadcast is just a desolate and dead world.
The audience couldn't help but be a little disappointed, looking forward to seeing something a little more exciting, and at this time, Zhang Wei drove the flying car to the mysterious far side of the moon.
People have always been full of curiosity about the far side of the moon, because people see the moon only in front of it, and never see the far side of the moon, and there are many people who suspect that the far side of the moon is actually a habitat for aliens. However, this is actually because the Moon's rotation period is exactly equal to its orbit around the Earth, so that it can only face the Earth in the same way forever. This phenomenon is common in planetary and satellite systems. You can do an experiment: hang an electric light in the middle of the house, and you rotate it while "revolutionizing" the lamp. When the two periods are equal, then the light will only shine on one side of you forever.
After a circle on the far side of the moon, and found nothing, not only the audience was disappointed, but even Zhang Wei's interest in tourism gradually faded, the moon is not a good place to travel at all, it is estimated that most people will not want to come again if they have been here once, unless human beings have begun to transform the moon and immigrate to the moon.
After continuing to wander around the moon for a while, Zhang Wei drove the flying car back to the "Future" spacecraft and prepared to return home.
Only he, Liu Hai, Qin Xiaobu, and Zhang Zhijian returned to the sea, and the remaining sixteen astronauts stayed on the moon to continue their work, they had enough materials and equipment to build a small base to provide rest, and the small base could allow them to live the same as on the earth even if they were on the moon, in addition, they also carried a large amount of food, water, oxygen and other materials, enough to survive for three months, and the "Future" spacecraft will leave for the moon immediately after returning to the earth for maintenance, no later than two days.
"Beidou, start the return voyage. ”
After Zhang Wei entered the spaceship, he rested for a while before opening his mouth and commanding.
Beidou's voice immediately sounded, "Everyone, please note that the spacecraft is starting to return, and there are still ten seconds left to officially take off, ten ...... Nine ......"
Ten seconds later, the anti-gravity device was activated, the ion engine was activated, and the Mirai spacecraft rose vertically into the air and left the lunar surface.
At this time, Liu Hai suddenly shouted excitedly, "Comet, I see a comet, the comet is flying in the direction of the moon." ”
Zhang Wei came to the window when he heard this, curiously picked up the telescope and looked over, and sure enough, he saw a comet, he was overjoyed, compared with the desolate and dead moon, the brilliant comet dragging its long tail across the sky could arouse his interest more.
To his surprise, the comet was very close to the moon and was heading towards it, so it seemed that he could observe it up close.
Zhang Wei immediately ordered, "Beidou, calculate how long it will take us to get close to this comet?"
"Calculating...... The comet's nucleus is about seven kilometers in diameter, about 230,000 kilometers from the Moon, and about 11.3 kilometers per second...... If we approach the comet at full speed...... An encounter with the comet is expected in two hours and thirty minutes. ”
Beidou responded.
"Change your destination, don't go back to Earth yet, go meet this comet for a while. ”
Zhang Wei opened his mouth and said, looking a little excited.
"David, although it is said that with the ability of the 'Future' spacecraft, it will not be dangerous to observe the comet at close range, but there is no need, after all, even if we can't go there, we can use astronomical telescopes to observe the comet perfectly. ”
Qin Xiaobu said.
"A closer look at the comet is only one of the purposes, and I also want to destroy the comet with an electromagnetic railgun to show everyone the force of our future tech company. ”
Zhang Wei said, "When we mine lunar resources, especially after mining a large number of helium-3, ilmenite and other resources, the competition in space will be unprecedentedly fierce, and other countries will definitely be red-eyed, and will hate our company more and more. And I have an agreement with the country, our company can develop private forces in space, so from the beginning of the landing on the moon, our company's force no longer needs to be hidden, and it can be properly displayed. ”
Liu Hai also nodded when he heard this, "That's true, and the diameter of this comet's comet nucleus is only seven kilometers, and with the powerful power of the electromagnetic railgun, it can completely destroy it." If that doesn't work, replace the shells with small fusion furnaces. (To be continued.) )
