Chapter 121, Moon Landing 2
The base of the manned lunar landing project.
Two teams of astronauts, each with nine people, wearing bloated spacesuits, slowly walked into the 'Houyi' and 'Chang'e' spacecraft.
A few hundred meters away from the two spacecraft, a huge display has been erected in the news media area, where a huge team of news media from all over the world is constantly broadcasting.
"Good morning, audience friends, I'm Li Yan, it's 10 o'clock in the imperial capital, and the manned lunar landing program is about to start."
"Just now a simple departure ceremony was held here near Houyi and Chang'e, and the astronauts have entered the spacecraft and are currently waiting for the take-off order."
……
"Good evening, audience friends, I'm Lina, and I'm currently at the Tianfu manned moon landing base in Huaxia, at 10 o'clock in the morning local time."
"Soon, the Huaxia manned lunar landing program is about to begin, and this station will broadcast the whole process for you."
While these news media reporters were making enthusiastic reports, the entire manned moon landing base began to think of bursts of shrill sirens.
"Buzz~Buzz~"
As the sirens sounded, everyone became nervous.
"Expedition~"
The sound of the general project of the manned lunar landing program sounded on the radio in various parts of the base.
Everyone immediately focused their attention on the two spacecraft, 'Houyi' and 'Chang'e'.
I saw that the two spaceships shook slightly, and the nuclear reactor on the spacecraft began to work, and the huge energy was continuously transmitted out, through a series of energy conversions, and finally turned into a steady stream of electrical energy to the anti-gravity engine.
The 'Houyi' spacecraft began to slowly rise into the air, light and fluttering, as if it did not have any weight, and then, the speed of the lift-off became faster and faster, and soon it became a small dot in the sky, and finally slowly disappeared from view.
'Chang'e' followed, also taking off vertically, light and fluttering without a trace of weight, it was very slow at first, but soon the speed of the lift-off became faster and faster, and soon it also disappeared from view.
Here in the ground control command center, Qin Yi turned around and looked at the huge display in the command center, and his eyes could no longer see the situation of the two spaceships.
The next thing you need to know about the two spacecraft is through the Control Command Center.
"Houyi successfully entered the earth's orbit~"
It didn't take long for the control command center to hear the news that Houyi had entered the earth's orbit, and then soon the 'Chang'e' also entered the earth's orbit very smoothly.
Entering Earth's orbit is like eating for two anti-gravity spacecraft that often travel between space and the ground, and there is no difficulty at all.
"Adjust the orbit ~ prepare to dock with the Tiangong space station ~"
According to the itinerary, the two spacecraft will have a short rest and replenishment on the Tiangong space station, and will not fly to the moon until 12 o'clock.
Qin Yi looked at the huge monitor, which was divided into many areas, some of which were recorded by the spacecraft's external camera, some were recorded internally, and there were various data displays about the spacecraft, as well as the location waiting in outer space on the earth.
Qin Yi's gaze looked at one of the display areas, which was the footage taken by the camera installed outside the spaceship.
The camera is pointed in the direction of the Earth, and the spacecraft is now in space, looking back in the direction of the Earth.
The blue earth is constantly exuding a fascinating halo of life, and then looking at the vast and empty universe in the distance, the earth is like a sapphire, the beauty is moving, and the beauty makes people forget to return.
"It's so beautiful~"
Qin Yi couldn't help but admire softly, and suddenly had the urge to go to outer space to take a look and take a walk in his heart.
In the past, Qin Yi didn't have much fascination for outer space, the moon and the like in his heart, but at this moment, he suddenly wanted to go to space to have a look, experience the feeling of weightlessness, and more importantly, appreciate the beauty of the earth in outer space.
"It's beautiful, compared to the vastness of the universe, the earth seems very insignificant, but it is a little oasis in the vast desert, the cradle of life~"
On the side, Yin Shouping heard Qin Yi's words, smiled and said.
"Yes~It's beautiful~"
"However, after all, we still have to look at the broader interstellar universe~"
Qin Yi nodded, at this time, the 'Houyi' spacecraft had already adjusted its orbit in space, and was slowly approaching the 'Tiangong' space station.
After nearly one year of construction and operation, spacecraft travel back and forth between space and the ground every day, and Tiangong has been continuously expanded.
At this time, it was like a huge space city, standing quietly in the void.
You can't feel its enormity when you look at it from a distance, and you can only clearly know its enormity when you get closer and closer to it, and slowly the whole field of vision is full of its figure.
Today's Tiangong space station is the largest space building in space, which can be divided into five areas, living area, scientific research area, space port area, agricultural experimental area, and industrial experimental area.
The five major regions, any of which are dozens of times larger than the previous International Space Station, the entire 'Tiangong' space station is like a huge space city, even the huge spaceship is very small compared to it.
In the Tiangong space station, hundreds of astronauts and scientists live and work in it at all times.
"Welcome to Tiangong Space Station~"
As the 'Houyi' spacecraft got closer and closer to the space station, a welcoming voice came into the ears of the nine astronauts of the 'Houyi'.
The 'Houyi' spacecraft slowly approached the spaceport area of the Tiangong space station, and mechanical arms stretched out from the berthing port of the spaceport.
These robotic arms are specially designed to capture the Houyi spacecraft with great ease, and then slowly fix it in the harbor.
The nine astronauts on the 'Houyi' did not enter the 'Tiangong' space station, but only made a short stay and make up the notes, so there was no need to enter the space station.
The hatch of the Houyi slowly opened, revealing a huge belly, which was already filled with all kinds of supplies, but there was still some space left.
The mechanical arm in the space port began to get busy, and some materials that had been transported to space in advance began to be loaded into the huge belly of the 'Houyi' spacecraft in a very orderly manner.
The reason why some supplies have to be transported into space in advance and then loaded into them is also for safety reasons.
The larger the load, the greater the mass, the more difficult it is to control, and the more dangerous it is.
Transporting them in separate batches into space, and then reloading them in space, is much safer, because there is no gravity in space.
Doing so can also save some energy, for the subsequent manned landing on the moon and the construction of a lunar base.
The 'Houyi' began to load supplies, and the 'Chang'e' behind it had slowly approached the space station, and in the same way, it was very easy to moor at another location.
Two huge spaceships are moored at the same time in the Taigang area, which is designed to provide berthing services for 10 large spaceships like the Houyi at the same time.
……
In a large conference room at NASA headquarters in the United States, although it was late at night, Americans have always been very opposed to working overtime, because it does not ~~people~~ right.
But at this time, the entire huge conference room was full of people, all staring at the huge monitor.
The monitor is broadcasting live China's manned lunar landing program.
Looking at the huge 'Tiangong' space station in the picture, the two huge spaceships 'Houyi' and 'Chang'e' are like two small dots, which seem insignificant.
But everyone knows the data of these two huge spaceships, and each spaceship is a behemoth, as huge as a building.
Everyone present clearly knows that there is a huge gap between themselves and Huaxia, and Huaxia's space station can no longer be called a space station, it should be more appropriate and appropriate to call it a space city.
"The Chinese people have fully possessed the ability to develop the moon, and the manned landing on the moon is just as simple as a family for them, and then, they will soon desperately seize the resources of the moon."
"What about us?"
"If we hadn't mastered anti-gravity technology, we would never have been able to compete with Huaxia."
Lawrence, NASA's chief scientist, closed his eyes, even though it wasn't the first time he had seen the massive Tiangong space station.
Since last year, he has watched the space station expand at an astonishing speed almost every day, just like the speed at which Huaxia is rising and developing.
It's unbelievably fast, so fast that you will have a feeling of being suddenly separated from the world, and for a few days, you will have the illusion of the vicissitudes of life and the passage of time.
"Whew~"
Lawrence was very uncomfortable, he witnessed the most glorious moments of the Americans when he was young, and it was here that he participated in the Apollo program at that time, saw Armstrong go to the moon with his own eyes, and heard the entire United States, and even the world, continue to cheer for the great achievements of the Americans.
However, after half a century, he thought that he would be able to see the Americans on the moon again, but after waiting for half a century, it turned out that the Chinese people were the first to land on the moon, and the eyes of the whole world were focused on the Chinese people.
"Are we really wrong?"
PS: Well, I'm wrong about the time, it's on the shelves on Friday, that is, tomorrow, ~囧~ I hope that book friends can support Lao Niu Yibo, and everyone should also understand the current situation, and watch and cherish it~
