Chapter 202: Square Dancing on the Moon
Last time, it was mentioned that Yang Liu and Long Yu and their entourage entered the orbit around the moon on the Chang'e X spacecraft, ready to land on a suitable plain at any time.
"Now that it has entered the intended orbit, the lunar orbital module is working normally. Did the landing take place in the Chang'e Valley as originally planned? After Long Yu made sure that the part of the work he was responsible for was completely fine, he asked Commander Yang Liu for instructions.
"Executed as originally planned." Yang Liu gave an order, and the three of them began preparations for the landing in an orderly manner.
Ten minutes later, Yang Liu and Long Yu put on a full set of space equipment, entered the landing module, and quietly waited for the moment of separation from the orbital module.
Why is the Chang'e-X spacecraft divided into orbital module and landing module? In fact, it is designed to save energy. If the entire spacecraft landed on the surface of the moon with people and supplies, after the exploration was over, the three people and the entire spacecraft would have to consume a lot of fuel if they wanted to get rid of the gravitational pull of the moon and fly back into space. If only a small lunar module had been sent to carry two people around the lunar surface, much less fuel would have been consumed.
Due to the limited level of earth science and technology at present, it is impossible to efficiently use the fuel carried by the spacecraft, so the weight occupied by the fuel itself is basically more than 90 percent of the load of the special rocket. Therefore, it is not uncommon to see extremely large rockets that can only send tons or even a few kilograms of supplies into space.
At the moment when the orbital module and the lunar module were separated, Yang Liu switched the landing mode to manual piloting. If anyone in this world can know the moon better than Yang Liu and Long Yu, I am afraid that they have not yet been born. As early as a few months ago, when Long Yu flew to Jupiter to cross the tribulation. The two of them once walked around the moon excitedly. Not only did it confirm the unreliability of the American Apollo moon landing program, but also found another portal somewhere on the far side of the moon that was exactly the same as the one Lu Yaer found on the far side of the moon in Xiuzhen. At that time, Yang Liu and Long Yu also celebrated this a lot, because it meant that the two of them could fly to other planes through the portal like Lu Ya'er.
Carefully controlling the speed of the landing module, Yang Liu flew to a special place on the surface of the moon according to his memory. The last time Yang Liu went to the sun, he and his little sister visited the moon for the second time. They stayed on the surface of the moon longer than the first, so they discovered something that was easy to overlook, but interesting. That is, on the surface of the moon, there is a small plain that is so flat that when it flies through the sky, it looks like a concrete ground that has been artificially polished from a distance.
"Comrade Yang Liu. Please pay attention to the orbit of the control spacecraft. According to the original plan, you will enter the orbit change in thirty seconds, and if there are no accidents, please carry out the mission as originally planned..."The command center issued an order from 380,000 kilometers away from the earth.
Yang Liu understood. Immediately enter the orbit change and carry out the landing mission according to the original plan. At present, all the parameters of the lunar module are completely normal..."Yang Liu replied.
"Liuliu, if we fly as planned. It's possible to miss that little plain. Are you sure you'll be able to land accurately in such a bulky spaceship? Long Yu asked a little worriedly.
"Little junior sister. Your IQ has dropped a bit lately. Although the flexibility of the ship is very low, don't we still have spells to use? With your mana, you don't want to put the ship wherever you want? Yang Liu asked with a smile.
"Who said that my IQ has dropped, and I'm not worried that the landing trajectory of the orbital module does not match the calculations of the command center? When the time comes, the people in the measurement and control center will ask, how will we answer? Long Yu pursed his lips to express dissatisfaction. If they are really what Yang Liu said. If the orbital module of the Manipulator flies over the moon in such a bold manner, I am afraid that even elementary school students can see that someone must be making trouble. Some people will say that China's moon landing is an outright hoax, like the Apollo program of the United States decades ago.
"Okay, I'll be careful, try not to use spells to slow down the speed of the ship. I don't think a small deviation should cause people to pay attention, right? Yang Liu replied disapprovingly as he piloted the spaceship. With the maneuvering level of the willow, it is no problem to fall at any point in the orbital module's trajectory, so using spells or something is just a joke.
Viewers staring intently at the TV screen, watching the live broadcast of the cameras in the Tongguò orbital module, sweat in their hearts. Can such a fast flight land safely at the predetermined landing site? The spacecraft piloted entirely by two female astronauts is the first in the world, which shows how eclectic China's selection of talents is.
"Our Liu Liu is really handsome, I didn't expect that more than a year after her debut, she unexpectedly appeared in the sky above the moon, and was about to land on the surface of the moon, and your legendary fairy Chang'e reunited. If you can hear our willows singing on the moon at this time, when will the bright moon be sung, it is really exciting! A fan commented on Yang Liu's Weibo.
"What the omnipotent Liu Liu will do next time, we can't predict! Here, I will make a bold prediction about where willow will appear. According to the principle that how far the willow will run, I guess that in the next aerospace project of our country to explore the sun, our willow will definitely be mixed with one foot. Of course, it is also necessary for the little junior sister Long Yu to follow behind!! Another netizen boldly guessed.
"Go through the back door, absolutely through the back door. With such a good opportunity to go sightseeing on the moon, anyone will break their heads and rush to sign up. I think that this little singer, who relied on his parents' relationship and family background to become popular overnight, must have used his beauty to hug a big thick leg, so as to grab the first ticket to the moon. If I had a father who was a deputy mayor and a grandfather who was a national leader, and the next time I had the opportunity to land on Mars, I would be the first to sign up. A brainless black acid commented.
"Landing on the sun, something that everyone on the earth can think of, our Liu Liu will definitely not do. If your mind is only as far away as the sun, you have not evolved enough. I estimate that the next time our willow will travel through countless planes, land on the highly civilized world of aliens to travel, and then do something earth-shattering, blind the eighteen open krypton golden eyes of those aliens..."Someone commented.
I have to say that the imagination of netizens is extremely rich, so much so that they roughly guessed the future life trajectory of Yang Liu
As the lunar module gradually slowed down to approach the surface of the moon, a small mirror-like object was found on the image transmitted by the camera, reflecting the sun's rays, so much so that many speculated that it was an oversized natural gemstone formed on the surface of the moon.
As the camera gradually zoomed in, all the people, including the experts in the command center, were shocked by the small square square that was square and neat, like a concrete floor, so that when Yang Liu drove the lunar module and landed smoothly in the small square, the cheers did not ring as expected.
"What the hell is this rhythm? Why is there a flat concrete floor on the surface of the Moon? Could it be that someone knew in advance that our willow was going to visit here and specially laid it? If our family Liu Liu is the first earthling to visit the moon, then who is the person who settled here? The legendary sister Chang'e? Some netizens who are relatively quick immediately posted the latest comments on the Internet.
"How does it feel like flying and flying back to Earth? It's a pity that this runway is a little shorter, but it is quite suitable for helicopter landing. It doesn't look much bigger than a basketball court. Another netizen analyzed.
"Is this a piece of land that the Chinese could level on the surface of the moon before they died, to prove that they landed on the moon a long time ago?" I wouldn't be surprised if there was an alien standing on that tiny floor to greet our two beautiful Chinese astronauts. An expert who used to work for NASA commented openly.
"Mr. Luther, do you mean that the Chinese have long discovered this flat field about the size of a basketball court on the surface of the moon and landed on it accurately?" The host asked suspiciously. As for what the expert said, the Chinese had previously leveled a piece of ground on the moon, and the host didn't take it seriously at all.
"Of course, being able to land so accurately in the center of this small square shows that the Chinese's spaceship control technology has been at the forefront of the world." According to the current level of technology in the United States, it is already very accurate to be able to land a spacecraft in an area within a radius of one kilometer. I didn't expect the Chinese to do better. It was really a big surprise. The expert commented excitedly.
"Those two little Chinese girls were as extraordinary as we had investigated, not only did they enter the China Space Agency unusually smoothly, became astronauts who had the honor of landing on the moon, and were able to drive the spacecraft so wonderfully to find the very flat little square on the surface of the moon. Why didn't the scientists of our great Russian Motherland find that place in the lens of an astronomical telescope before that? The commander of a Russian air base sighed at Katya, a beautiful woman in uniform who had been standing still beside him and pretending to be a statue.
"The two of them didn't exceed my expectations. I even had a hunch that they might even do more. It's just that under their deliberate cover-up, we didn't find out. Katya replied with a blank face.
"Dear Katya, relax. There is no such thing as a superman in this world. Those two little Chinese girls are undoubtedly very good, but they are still no different from ordinary people. At least there are many of our great Russians who are better than them..." )
