Chapter 781: Conflict after landing
However, the return capsule that Tang Feng and his family took did not fall into the ocean like the previous return capsule in the United States, but adopted the precise land landing method used by Russia and Huaxia, and finally landed safely in the desert of West Texas.
In the past, when American spacecraft returned, except for the space shuttle, which landed on the space shuttle runway at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape, the other return capsules landed in the surrounding oceans.
This landing method has many advantages, firstly, it does not require a recoil engine in the re-entry capsule, and secondly, because it is landing in the ocean, it can improve the safety of the re-entry capsule.
Of course, the reason why the United States adopted this way of return is also inextricably linked to the powerful US Navy. Because of the old beauty, it can be called a change. The state of naval strength, the return capsule landed in any sea area in the world, and the US navy was able to reach it in the shortest possible time.
Although it is sad to say, it is an indisputable fact that the navies of the two countries cannot afford the salvage of the return capsule, so whether it is China or Russia, they can only set the return location of the return capsule on domestic land.
This land return method has extremely high requirements for the landing accuracy of the return site, and the return capsule must also be equipped with a recoil engine to ensure the safety of the return capsule when landing.
Originally, Dr. Schmitz wanted to use the method of ocean landing to recover the return capsule, but Tang Feng vetoed it.
On this matter, Tang Feng's opinion was very resolute, even Dr. Schmitz had no choice but to design the return capsule according to Tang Feng's requirements, and used Huaxia's aerospace technology to greatly improve the landing accuracy of the return capsule.
Of course, Tang Feng was reluctant to return to the capsule and landed on the ocean. Don't forget, the purpose of going to the moon this time is to get that "extraterrestrial meteorite". And if the return capsule falls in the ocean and is salvaged by the US Navy at that time, then everything in the return capsule will be "saved" by the US Navy in a grand manner. And in general, this "preservation" is usually indefinite.
In other words, as long as Tang Feng falls into the hands of the US Navy, then there is a great possibility that the "extraterrestrial meteorite" will be ignored by the US government.
This is a fact that does not need to be considered, and with the virtue and face of the US government, if this kind of thing is not done, then the sun will come out of the west. After all, the function of the "extraterrestrial meteorite" is peculiar enough, and the entire US top brass must have known about it now.
This matter was as early as when Tang Feng was preparing for the moon landing operation. It's already settled. Others didn't know that Tang Feng would "discover" an "extraterrestrial meteorite" on the moon, but as the initiator, Tang Feng certainly knew that these things would happen.
And because it was an emergency return, Dr. Schmitz's team could also have a good reason why they had to land landing. Quite simply, because it was an emergency return, it was no longer possible to land in a certain area of the Atlantic Ocean as previously planned.
Dr. Schmitz designed the landing site in the desert about twenty kilometers north of Fort Stockton in western Texas.
When the re-entry capsule successfully landed at the landing site, the lunar landing team led by Dr. Schmitz was already ready. Moreover, Hansen also led dozens of professional security personnel to fully monitor the perimeter of the landing site.
Although the U.S. government and NASA also came quite a few people. However, these people were all forcibly refused to approach the return capsule by Hansen, and only Dr. Schmitz and the hyena, a limited number of people, would approach the return capsule as soon as possible.
For this reason, Hansen and his group of security guards almost fought with the US military on the spot.
It can be seen that the "extraterrestrial meteorite" that Tang Feng "discovered" on the moon has completely touched the hearts of many people with hearts. Even the U.S. military sent personnel to try to get their hands on that "extraterrestrial meteorite".
At the first moment the hatch is opened. Tang Feng handed over the simple metal box in his hand to the hyena, and was escorted by five or six big-waisted hyenas who also had a big waist and round waist, and quickly entered a helicopter not far away, and before the US military, NASA and US government personnel reacted, the helicopter quickly lifted off and went straight to Fort Stockton Airport, 20 kilometers away. There, Donald's Captain Tiger and the Iron Man were getting ready to go, and once the hyenas arrived, the Gulfstream G650 would fly straight to Gravina Island with the hyenas and the "extraterrestrial meteorite".
After the hyena's helicopter lifted off, Tang Feng and five other astronauts stepped out of the return capsule.
Discomfort is naturally there, but as a trained astronaut, this discomfort can be adjusted back quickly.
The next thing is to carry a sample of the lunar rock from the re-entry capsule, which is not much, but it is better than nothing.
However, the next thing made Tang Feng a little unhappy, because the group of American GIs under the leadership of a lieutenant colonel actually walked directly in front of Tang Feng, and the lieutenant colonel looked at Tang Feng sitting on the chair condescendingly, and asked very arrogantly: "Why don't you hand over that extraterrestrial meteorite to us?" Did you know that by doing so, you are threatening the security of the United States? ”
Tang Feng naturally wouldn't give the U.S. military a face, so he rolled his eyes and said directly: "Which onion are you?" Why should I give you that meteorite? This moon landing was completely funded by me alone, and your military didn't take a penny, and you didn't come out alone, so you want to get what I brought back from the moon? You when you are Jeb. Bush! How? Not convinced? It doesn't matter if you're not convinced, do you want to call Mr. Bush right now and see if he agrees with your approach? ”
After a pause, Tang Feng smiled and said, "Is the United States still safe?" Are you in that Pentagon department? Believe it or not, I'm going to have my lawyer sue you right now to intimidate me? Don't think I'm afraid of you if you're wearing a military uniform, tell you, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, don't mess with me, otherwise I'll let you know what early retirement is and what it means to not be able to eat after retirement! ”
The lieutenant colonel's face was blue and white, and the lieutenant colonel naturally knew Tang Feng's identity, and he also knew very well that Tang Feng could really do what he said easily. And the people from NASA and the U.S. government stood by with their arms crossed and watched the excitement.
In the United States, a tycoon like Tang Feng with a net worth is definitely not something that people like them can afford to provoke, and even the new president, Mr. Bush, is absolutely unwilling to offend such a figure.
Seeing that the lieutenant colonel was speechless, Tang Feng said with a smile: "In the future, talk more through your brain, don't take out anything and spray it!" Okay, I'm tired and need to rest, if you have anything to do with the military, you can contact my lawyer, I don't have the spare time to take care of your group of people, let your superiors come over and talk about something!
