Chapter 391: Landing on the Moon
The space plane quickly entered the descent channel, the moon is airless, it is impossible to rely on gliding to land, can only open the auxiliary vent located in the belly of the aircraft, to slow down the descent. This means that the gravitational pull of the moon is much smaller than that of the earth, and if it is changed to the earth, these small vents will definitely not be able to support the huge fuselage of the aerospace aircraft.
It took more than 20 minutes for the two aerospace planes to finally come to the sky above the lunar mining base to which Daming belongs. Judging from the scene, the real situation is even more tragic than what is shown in the photos. The impact of the meteorite not only stirred up the moon dust, but also caused a lot of rocks to fly out, and these large and small stones are now randomly smashed all over the mining base. Some excavators, transport trucks, transfer trucks and other vehicles parked outdoors were all destroyed by these stones, and some houses were also smashed and deformed.
Fortunately, the two extraction factories are far away from the meteorite landing point, and the building materials are relatively strong, so there is no visual damage. The main engine of the aerospace aircraft was completely shut down, and only a few auxiliary vents were suspended, and they were constantly adjusting their positions.
The plasma gas from the auxiliary vent blew up countless moondust on the ground, exposing a hardened pavement that was hidden below. Judging by the metallic sheen of the sunlight, the road is likely to be paved with some kind of metal plate, which is good for landing.
"Let's land on this road, the width is about the same, enough for our aerospace plane to land."
The No. 1 aerospace plane slowly landed in the dust, and the No. 2 aircraft also followed, landing not far away. Jiao Bai and the two astronaut zombies put on clumsy extravehicular spacesuits and came to the airlock, ready to go down to the surface of the moon to have a look. The gate to the cab closes automatically, and the extractor starts working, pumping air from the airlock compartment. When the air pressure inside and outside is balanced, the hatch opens outward, and a simple gangway in a folded state is automatically lowered.
Jiao Bai walked down awkwardly with the gangway, the gravity of the moon was too small, and the extravehicular spacesuit was really bulky, Jiao Bai walked very hard. Halfway through, he was only more than two meters high from the ground, and Jiao Bai simply jumped straight down.
Falling lightly on the surface of the moon, Jiao Bai even saved the buffer action he had prepared. He dodged the metal pavement under his feet with his feet, and smiled with satisfaction, although this place was not the earth or the water blue star, but being able to be grounded again still gave him an inexplicable sense of security.
The other four astronaut zombies stepped off the space plane one after another and came to Jiao Bai to meet him.
"Let's go, let's go to the helium-three extraction factory on the left first, if we can find some helium-three stocks, our trip to the moon will not be in vain."
Jiao Bai said, he had already taken the lead in the front, and the four astronaut zombies hurriedly followed. It is not easy for people to walk on the moon, after all, tens of thousands of years of evolution have made human beings accustomed to the way they move under the earth's gravity, and it still takes a short time to adapt to appearing on the moon with only one-sixth of gravity.
What's more, the current road conditions are also very bad, the section of the road near the aerospace plane is okay, the moon dust has been blown clean, and the stones below have been exposed, Jiao Bai and the others can just bypass these stones directly. When I got out of this area, I could only move forward tentatively, and the thick moon dust, as soon as I stepped on it, my feet would sink deeply, just like stepping on the snow, occasionally touching the stones covered by the moon dust, and it was easy to stumble.
Jiao Bai walked forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot, and the speed of travel was less than half of the usual. Fortunately, the place where the aerospace plane landed was originally near the helium three refining plant, and Jiao Bai and the others only walked forward for more than ten minutes before they came to the gate of the factory. It's just that the situation here made Jiao Bai frown, and he saw that the ground near the door was full of large and small stones, all the way to a height of seven or eight meters, blocking the entire gate inside.
Cheng Ziming moved his footsteps, circled around the stone pile, and then reported through the communication device on the spacesuit: "Sir, these stones should be artificially piled up here, and the purpose should be to close the gate of the helium three refining plant and prevent others from entering. ”
Jiao Bai nodded and said, "It should be the astronauts working here who made it before evacuation." Maybe they thought that there would be a day when they would return to the moon, and they didn't want this place to be occupied and destroyed by people from other countries, so they got some stones and blocked the doorway. ”
Cheng Ziming sighed, he was also a member of the astronaut team, so he naturally understood what those colleagues were thinking. It's a pity that these people are doomed to disappointment, and it is now difficult for humans on Aqua Blue to survive, let alone recover the moon.
"There are too many of these stones, only the five of us, and there are no auxiliary machinery, I'm afraid we won't be able to move them in a day."
Jiao Bai waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry for this first, let me do a few small experiments to confirm some things." ”
With that, Jiao Bai waved his hand and summoned a first-level zombie. Suddenly transferred from the comfortable summoning space to the moon, this ordinary zombie of this level was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head left and right curiously, looking at everything around.
But the environment on the moon is not friendly at all, it is daylight, and the temperature of the sunlit side of the objects on the moon is as high as more than 100 degrees, and the temperature on the shadow side is as low as minus 170 degrees. Jiao Bai and the others were able to move freely in this environment without any discomfort, thanks to the extravehicular spacesuits they were wearing. This kind of spacesuit is backward, but the quality is really excellent, and the ability to adjust high and low temperatures is absolutely qualified.
It's just that such a huge temperature difference, where is it that a weak first-level zombie can withstand it. I saw that its skin quickly turned red and blistered on the sunny side, and the shadow side was instantly frozen and covered with hoarfrost. The zombie quickly convulsed, and opened its mouth to scream, but because of the lack of air, it only opened its mouth there, and no sound came out.
"It seems that the first-level zombies can't adapt to the environment here, but fortunately, they didn't die right away, try the second-level ones again and see how it goes."
Jiao Bai shook his head, beckoned, and sent the dying zombie back to the summoning space for cultivation, and at the same time summoned a second-level giant zombie to repeat the above experiment. The second-level zombie is much more powerful than the first-level zombie, and it lasted more than a minute, but it was still a near-death. Continue to change to a third-level zombie, this time the situation is better, the third-level zombie can already survive on the moon for a long time, but the huge temperature difference still makes it difficult to move. :,,,
