Chapter 610: Lunar Soil Bricks

On July 30, after 98 hours of flight, the 'Explorer Lunar Module' carried by Hercules 2 successfully landed in the Rainbow Bay Area of the North Pole on the front side of the Moon, and Van Yatives became the first astronaut to set foot on the Moon after the 'Hercules Project' returned to the moon.

Four days after the launch of Hercules 2, NASA announced a news that shocked the global craze.

After nearly 60 years, the return to the moon was successful.

The impact of the news was no less shocking than the news of the March Ant Group's retrieval of lunar soil from the back of the moon, and the United States once again proved to the world that they possess the strength.

The message is not cooled.

On August 3, SpaceX also successfully launched Israel's "Genesis 2" lunar probe at the Kennedy Space Center.

With the strength of a small country, Israel has shown its ambition to become the fourth country to successfully explore the moon after China, the United States, and Russia.

This news is not conspicuous compared to the news of the successful manned landing of the United States on the moon.

However, in this upsurge of space exploration, Israel's move has also attracted a lot of attention.

On August 6, when the probe launched by Israel had not yet reached the moon, NASA made another announcement.

The three astronauts, who spent a week on the lunar surface, completed the mission of launching a research module and a small eco-module, and obtaining 50 kilograms of rock. The lunar module was successfully ignited and lifted off, leaving the lunar surface and on its way back to Earth.

As soon as this news came out, the news that the national lunar probe was preparing to land on the moon was overshadowed.

The news didn't stop there.

On August 7, Israel announced that Genesis 2 had successfully landed in the Storm Ocean.

In the early morning of August 11, NASA once again announced that after 109 hours of flight, the lunar module successfully returned and fell into a wheat field in the middle of the continental United States.

The successful landing of the United States on the moon shattered the outside world's doubts about the authenticity of their moon landing, and also let the world see their strength.

August of this year becomes a special time.

The popularity of space exploration continues.

On August 13, the European Space Agency announced the successful launch of a rocket to send the Wisdom 2 lunar probe into space. The probe is on its way to the moon, and Europe has officially launched the second phase of the Dawning mission.

On August 18, when the European Space Agency had just announced that the lunar lander had successfully landed in the Copernican impact crater on the lunar surface, the Aerospace Research Institute of the island country also announced that at the Kagoshima launch center, the carrier rocket successfully launched the Yueyu-1 lunar landing probe, and the island country officially launched the 'Yueyu Plan'.

The drama continues to take place, and August has become the most frequent time point for moon landings.

All kinds of news from all sides have dizzy the outside world.

On August 28, the Russian Space Agency, which has been quiet, finally started to say that it will launch a manned lunar spacecraft in late September to start the lunar exploration program.

When everyone thought that the boom was over, on August 30, the Huaxia lunar exploration project team also announced that the Chang'e unmanned probe would be launched in September according to the original plan. The Chang'e probe will land on the far side of the moon, obtain lunar rock samples, and return to Earth.

On the last day of August, the marching ant group also came out to express its position, using the Goddess to launch two reconnaissance satellites and two landers to the moon again, responsible for the exploration of the moon.

This news also caused quite a stir.

Throughout August, the world was flooded with news of various moon landings.

The competition for lunar exploration has reached an unprecedented peak.

Later generations recorded that August of this year was the month when mankind fully started the journey of the stars and the sea.

……

It was night, in Chen Mo's study.

When the outside world was struggling for the moon landing technology, Chen Mo had already begun to plan for the lunar base.

On the holographic platform in front of him, a gray brick the size of a mobile phone was suspended, with a smooth surface that looked like ceramic.

"Its density, which reaches 2.9 grams per cubic centimeter, has a compressive strength of 1700-3500 kilograms per square centimeter, and a water absorption rate of 0.11%

Shore hardness: > HS 75. In the test just now, it shows strong tenacity and strength in an extreme alternating heat and cold environment between minus 190 degrees Celsius and 400 degrees Celsius, which meets the needs of the built environment of the moon. ”

The ink girl introduced on the side.

These are freshly baked bricks.

Just finished testing.

The building materials of the construction base are the first problems he has to solve.

This is the building material for the future lunar base.

This inconspicuous brick is made of lunar soil, adding iron, titanium and other metal elements, mixing it in a specific proportion, using a laser to melt the mixed material, and then using 3D printing technology to make a lunar soil brick.

The materials needed for lunar soil bricks are all material elements found on the moon, so that they can easily take materials from the moon instead of relying on the earth to transport the materials there.

After returning from vacation, Xiaoyu was not very relieved, so he asked Chen Mo to rest for a few more days.

It was rare for Xiaoyu to make a request to him, and Chen Mo agreed.

In fact, Chen Mo has already begun to be half-rested and half-working, with the help of Mo Nu, even if he doesn't go to the company's laboratory, he can still conduct experiments and get all kinds of experimental data he wants.

His next goal is to build a lunar base, on which he must use lunar rocks and lunar soil as materials.

So Chen Mo asked the robot to do experiments in the laboratory according to his ideas.

Xiao Yu entered the study and saw Chen Mo sitting in front of the holographic platform, a little helpless.

Chen Mo has never been restless, and when she is on vacation, she also sorts out materials for Mo Nu to study every day, but when she ensures that Chen Mo has enough rest, she can only turn a blind eye.

"What is this? Looks like bricks. Xiao Yu walked over curiously.

She occasionally comes to the study to watch Chen Mo's research, and Chen Mo, who focuses on research, is very attractive, and she can also get close to his work.

"It's bricks, lunar soil bricks printed by 3D printing technology, and I'm looking for materials to build a lunar base." Chen Mo said.

"Did it work?"

"I just tested it, and it's better than granite, and it's a success." Chen Mo took Xiaoyu into his arms: "Tell you something." ”

Without waiting for Chen Mo to say, Xiao Yu first understood what he meant: "You can go to the company tomorrow, and then let you stay at home, it is estimated that you will correct me on the spot." ”

"Worthy of my wife."

Chen Mo clicked a few times on the platform and called up some information.

"In the past few days, I have sorted out some educational materials about Wushuang, which are enough for Wushuang to use from elementary school to middle school. In the future, I will make some additions and adjustments according to the actual situation. ”

Xiaoyu is planning to set up a primary school for Wushuang, and in the future, there will be a middle school and a university.

Chen Mo also has to pay attention to Wushuang's education.

Xiao Wushuang's education is destined to be different from ordinary elite education, and the knowledge she wants to learn, in addition to the knowledge of the current school, is a lot of scientific knowledge sorted out by Chen Mo from the science and technology library, which cannot be taught in an ordinary way of education.

"Thank you for your hard work." Xiao Yu said with some distress.

Chen Mo has too much burden, it is both a company and a family, she can't help Chen Mo too much, she can only let herself be as sensible as possible and not add trouble to Chen Mo.

"You should feel sorry for Wushuang, when you grow up, don't tell her that I made what she learned, otherwise I'm afraid that she will cut off the father-daughter relationship with me." Chen Mo muttered.

"Hahaha......"

Xiao Yu was immediately amused.

"But you feel like I'm working hard, is there any reward?" Chen Mo laughed evilly.

"I'm here today, and I'm not physically convenient." Xiao Yu hurriedly stopped Chen Mo's messy hand, his face suddenly turned ruddy, and he hesitated to speak: "If you want, go to the ink girl's room tonight?" ”

Chen Mo: "......"

Ink Girl: "......"

Seeing Chen Mo's resentful and somewhat embarrassed appearance, Xiao Yu smiled flamboyantly, and it was rare to see Chen Mo's demeanor.
