The next time I watched Sputnik-1 ignite again and fly away, a large group of people were full of confusion...... What about running out of fuel? What about picking up the corpse?

MMP！

Changed the drop point again and again, looked weak and powerless, and made trouble for a long time, shabu us, right?

The fleet was all wiped out, and when a group of people jumped to their feet and cursed, the military satellites in the sky and the radars in various places were not idle, closely following the figure of Satellite One. Since it is impossible to pick up the corpse, it is good to see what the Great Yuan Empire wants to do, no matter if it is a verbal war or something else, there will always be some black materials left behind.

Right under the noses of various countries, Sputnik-1 flew out dozens of kilometers, threw off the fleet, and landed on the sea.

To the surprise of all countries, there was no recovery fleet at all, and there was not even a single ship around the landing waters.

Could it be submarine recovery?

Before the brains of various countries could unfold, Sputnik-1 slowly sank into the sea and completely disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

What does that mean?

Self-sinking?

It's impossible, it's a lunar return capsule, no one will be so brain-dead as to abandon it, even if they really want to abandon it, just throw it on the moon and it won't be over, can they return to the earth and abandon it? Is it possible that this also has to play the fallen leaves back to the roots?

No matter what others guess, the secret service department has no doubts at all, this iron must have become a fish and swam away, this matter Lao Hei has a criminal record, I think the secret service did not take whale meat as a welfare distribution at the beginning.

Sputnik-1 played a moon landing in front of the whole world, and then returned to Earth with a swagger, and this pot was firmly buckled on the top of the head of the Great Yuan Empire. Now that Sputnik-1 has suddenly disappeared, all kinds of accusations, questions and inquiries have come one after another, all of which have been piled up on the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Great Yuan Empire.

In this regard, the Great Yuan Empire has always neither recognized nor denied him, leaving everyone with full room for imagination...... It's never our style to talk well or anything!

Not long after the landing of Satellite No. 1, a carrier rocket of the Great Yuan Empire was launched, and this urgently additional space program has only one purpose - to land on the moon!

This time it was neither an astronaut nor a probe chamber that landed on the moon, but a helium-3 collection creature specially designed by the secret service, which was the space manta ray.

The major spacefaring countries that had just been teased by Satellite 1 were once again attracted by the launch vehicles of the Great Yuan Empire, and all kinds of observation equipment coincidentally aimed at the launch vehicles, and everyone wanted to know what the Great Yuan Empire wanted to do at this sensitive point in time.

The mystery was soon revealed, and in plain sight, a launch vehicle launched a lunar module into lunar orbit. This is a very standard moon landing operation, which is in line with the characteristics of all current stage space technology, and uses the most labor-saving way to make full use of the gravitational pull of the earth and the moon along the orbit with the least fuel consumption......

Witnessing this moon landing operation, countries can't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, this is understandable, normal moon landing operation!

Without any incident, the lunar module landed firmly on the surface of the moon and the space manta rays were released. At the same time, the control center on the ground immediately took over the control of the manta rays. This space manta ray uses dark web technology and has a communication module that can be remotely controlled in real time.

"Power on! Self-test! A voice appeared in the control center.

"The battery is fine!"

"The solar module is normal!"

"The deformation is normal!"

"The motion module is normal!"

"The acquisition module is normal!"

......

After the completion of the self-inspection, the manta ray was in very good condition, and under the remote control of the ground control center, it slowly stretched its body, like a piece of paper that has been folded many times.

"Expanded!"

"Check the movement!"

The space manta ray immediately moved on the surface of the moon, and it was like a student doing radio gymnastics between classes, three times from left to right, with a twisted neck and a twisted buttocks......

The space manta ray twisted into a twist, and did not notice anything abnormal, running and jumping everything was normal.

"Unfold the Gathering Form!"

When the command was issued, the space manta ray immediately stopped the lunar cramp dance, and its entire body slowly thinned out, completely stretched, and turned into a super large pancake with a width of more than 20 meters and a length of more than 10 meters.

The body of this large pancake is very distinctive, with a dozen consecutive cleft palates near the head on the side facing the ground, which are parallel to each other.

Behind the cleft palate are dozens of small paws, which are very similar to the claws of centipedes, except that the feet of centipedes grow on the sides of their bodies, and the feet of space manta rays grow under their belly, and they still grow in patches.

Hundreds or thousands of insect legs are gathered together at the same time, and if anyone turns the manta rays around and leaks them into the air, it may be a nightmare of dense phobia.

"Test drive!"

The manta rays stand in place, and the internal organs begin to spin according to the programme.

"Everything works!"

"Start gathering!"

A command spans a distance of 300,000 kilometers from the Earth to the surface of the moon in an instant, and the head of the manta ray sinks downward, and the palate cleft at the bottom is open one after another, just sticking to the ground.

At the same time, dozens of centipede legs move at the same time, providing ample power for the manta rays, allowing them to slowly move forward at a steady pace.

As the manta ray moves forward, its downward open palate is like a parallel shovel, digging into the soil, scraping up a portion of the topsoil and swallowing it into its stomach.

More than a dozen parallel layers of palate cleft palate are shovels of different depths, scraping off the lunar soil layer by layer, each layer only scraping off a few millimeters of thickness, and the accumulation of more than a dozen layers suddenly scrapes away the surface layer of the lunar soil nearly ten centimeters high.

The manta rays, which are slowly moving forward, swallow the lunar soil into their stomachs, and the various organs in their stomachs are already ready to heat the lunar soil step by step, so that the temperature of all lunar soil rises to a red state.

The crimson lunar soil releases attached gas molecules, which are immediately collected and gradually separated and screened. The heated lunar soil is cooled down again, and the heat is recycled and reused to re-transfer to the newly swallowed lunar soil.

A simple and complete helium-3 extraction process is in operation, and as the manta rays move forward, the helium-3 contained in the lunar soil is collected little by little.

"How's it going?"

"Helium tricomponent detected in the storage chamber!"

"Good!" The design of manta rays has been successful, and since it can extract helium-3 from lunar soil, it means that large-scale industrial extraction of helium-3 has seen the light of day.

The manta ray continued to work for six hours before finally stopping when it ran out of electricity, and it was just lying on the surface of the moon, absorbing sunlight to recharge itself.

"Report, the manta rays worked for six hours and extracted a total of two moles of helium-three!"
