Chapter 3 Login
Time passed minute by minute, and after 4 days of sailing, the spacecraft finally reached the final landing stage.
Back in the 60s of the last century, the landing was the most difficult and easy to get out of the way. At that time, the technical means were limited, and the take-off and landing of the spacecraft were all set at one time, and there was no manual intervention in the middle. A week-long journey of 380,000 kilometers, when to go where, when to change the speed, must be accurate to the second, once the mistake is made, it is a crash and death.
Now, in 2020, computer systems have developed rapidly, and aerospace technology is much more advanced than before. The "Victory" spacecraft mainly uses unmanned means, and the supercomputer in the main control room has also written various equations, which can cope with a large number of unexpected situations.
After two rounds of orbiting the moon and two decelerations, the spacecraft finally reached the top of the Bailey crater in Antarctica.
This is the largest crater on the Moon, with a diameter of about 303 kilometers. In mid-air, you can see with the naked eye a circular glass cover with a diameter of about 2 kilometers and a height of about 1,000 meters, densely covered with solar panels, and a large number of mining machines and various machines in the surrounding open space.
This is the moon base! A miracle, a ninth wonder that belongs to humanity!
"Ding Dong, the spacecraft is about to land on the moon, there may be some bumps in the process, please fasten your seat belts and hold on to the handrails." A gentle electronic tone automatically sounded, prompting everyone to prepare for the final moon landing.
The whole warehouse cheered, and some even shed tears of excitement. Many people are coming to the moon for the first time, but seeing such a large man-made complex gives birth to a warm feeling from the bottom of their hearts.
Man is a creature that needs a sense of security very much, especially after the explosion of the earth, the warm sunshine, free air, and solid earth no longer exist, and people have lost their backing and can only face the cold and silent universe alone, which brings great pressure to people.
The slightest mistake in the destruction of the spaceship, air leakage, mechanical failure, etc., will immediately lead to the death of the entire warehouse, and there is no chance at all.
In this case, a sense of insecurity arises in the depths of the person's heart, and it accumulates gradually. When a person accumulates more stress than they can bear, it is likely to explode completely, either to destroy madly, to commit suicide, or to become crazy and stupid, it is possible.
There are two best ways to solve this situation, first, hopefully, to make people believe that they can live.
Second, as long as there are enough people, it can also bring a sense of security, which is determined by people's herd mentality. When disaster comes, more than ninety percent of people will run to a crowded place, even if it is not necessarily safe to have a large number of people, but the public will still choose this way, which is the herd mentality of people.
The four-day space voyage caused enough mental stress on the passengers, but that stress was much lessened the moment one saw the lunar base. This is because people see hope.
I only heard a loud "coaxing" sound, accompanied by a violent tremor, and the spacecraft finally landed on the moon!
The crowd was suddenly noisy, and many people got up from their positions and crowded to the door, anxious to be the first to get off the ship. They are desperate to see more people, more of their kind.
"Quiet! Be quiet! All sit in place! Yu Yifeng yelled and pushed a few people out, but a steady stream of people squeezed over.
Seeing this, Yu Yifeng made a gesture, and a big man with a height of one meter and nine stood up. His skin was dark, his muscles were pricked, and with a wave of his hand, he pushed everyone away, and then stood and blocked the entire door.
"Why are you blocking the door?" A young man with glasses shouted excitedly, and he pushed a few times, but found that he couldn't push the big man at all.
"It's a vacuum outside, are you in a hurry to go out and seek death?"
The young man suddenly became angry, "That's ...... What about spacesuits? What about the lunar rover? Didn't you say that there was a lunar rover? How do you serve! ”
Most of the people present here are skilled workers, who are about to participate in the construction of the lunar base, and these people have been carefully selected and their quality is generally relatively high.
But there are still a small number of local tyrants and wealthy people, who spend money to come to the moon purely for tourism, that is, this part of the people is the least likely to accept the reality of the earth's explosion. Judging from the clothes of this young man, it looks like he is either rich or expensive, but now, everything has become a cloud of smoke.
The big man who blocked the door was named Zhao Yao, and he was one of the members of the special forces. He hated this kind of arrogant rich second generation the most, sneered, and glared at the young man fiercely.
"Lunar rover? Hehe, you don't want to think about it, you have less than 200 people in this mess. Where can the moon base go? Maybe there's a rebellion and massacre going on in the base......"
"You talk nonsense! How can it be? The young man shouted, his face beginning to darken. It stands to reason that there should indeed be a lunar rover to pick them up, but now that the lunar rover has not come, it reminds him of the bad side.
"There are a large number of death row inmates in this base, don't you know? Maybe the group of condemned prisoners is on a doomsday party. Zhao Yao said faintly.
The young man was completely stunned when he heard this, and he was stunned for a long time before he sat down, his face was pale and terrible, I don't know if it was because Zhao Yao's vicious appearance scared him, or because words like rebellion and massacre reminded him of something bad.
He doesn't know what to say at all, and with his status, he may know some insider information that ordinary people don't know, if something really goes wrong with the moon base...... Thinking about it, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
Seeing that the crowd was getting more and more chaotic, Yu Yifeng said directly: "Everyone, due to the chaos within the base, we have to carry out some tasks, and the time is about one to three days. In between, you must remain in the ship for your safety......"
When these words were finished, everyone began to make a loud noise, and everyone began to realize that the moon base was not necessarily safe...... But that's the last hope! Where else can you go but here?
Some shouted for them to be taken, and some of the women cried. Although these soldiers are a little overbearing, most of them still don't want them to go, because their existence means safety and reliability.
"You just need to wait for a few days, there is enough food and water in the cabin......" Yu Yifeng was verbose for a long time, and found that it had no effect, so he could only harden his heart and make a gesture, "Execute Plan B!" ”
Deputy Captain Xu Yunjin nodded, and then, a white mist quietly spread from the bottom of the ship's bilge, with some pungent smell. After a while, someone began to cough, and the hustle and bustle of the cabin slowly became silent, and many passengers staggered to the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, all the members put on spacesuits, carried weapons and equipment, and set foot on the land of the moon.
Except for Yu Yifeng and Xu Yunjin, no one else has ever been to the moon, so they are still a little new to the lunar environment. Although it was daytime, the sky was still black, with only a harsh white light reflected from the ground, because there was no atmosphere.
Zhao Yao jumped excitedly, jumping seven or eight meters high, which is the height of a two-story building! As a result, I was unsteady on my feet and fell to the ground, but fortunately, it didn't hurt at all.
"They're going to be okay if they're in there, right?" A young man with a flat head next to him asked in the headphones.
"No problem, these hypnotic gases are effective for 24 hours, during which time they will not wake up. Okay, let's hurry. Xu Yunjin smiled self-deprecatingly again, "In extraordinary times, with extraordinary means, if it is placed in normal times, not only will there be administrative punishment for doing so, but the lawsuit alone will be enough for us to eat a pot." ”
The crowd laughed bitterly.
At this time, Yu Yifeng made a gesture to signal everyone to be quiet. "The moon is only one-sixth the gravity of the Earth, which means you can jump higher and farther, but it doesn't mean you can go faster!" Just like Zhao Yao, he accidentally fell because he hadn't adapted to gravity. ”
Zhao Yao listened and scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Except for me and Lao Xu, no one else here has ever been to the moon, so I can't immediately adapt to the gravity environment here. So...... I ask everyone to use firearms as much as possible when fighting, and not to fight in close combat! Otherwise, if you miss and fall, you may lose your life! ”
Yu Yifeng said solemnly, "I don't want to lose any of my comrades, do you understand?" ”
"Got it!"
"Alright, let's go!"
