Chapter 501: Ball Grown
The purpose of this plan is to grab time, compete with yourself, compete with technological development, and compete with Lao Hei......
In order to rush for time, both the secret service department and the aerospace department are in a hurry, and many projects are started at the same time, racing against time to catch up with the schedule, and even safety can be ignored to some extent for the sake of progress.
According to the plan agreed between the Ministry of Secret Service and the Ministry of Space, the first batch of five astronauts will be sent to the moon, and the main task of these five astronauts is to build an forward base on the moon and at the same time start collecting as much helium-3 as possible.
Even according to the fastest project estimates, the new spacecraft will take at least three months to design and build.
According to the overall plan of the new spacecraft, which will be the largest spacecraft ever carried by mankind, it will use a nuclear fusion engine as the main engine and six auxiliary rockets as auxiliary power.
The spacecraft, named Chang'e-3, weighed 6,000 tons, completely breaking history, because the main power used a fusion engine, so it could carry up to 3,000 tons.
If you want to design a new spacecraft, just three months is not enough, and in order to catch up with the schedule, the Ministry of Aerospace has to integrate various transplants and give full play to the previous technology accumulation.
Chang'e-3 completely adopts the original launch vehicle system, but after it is appropriately amplified, the multi-stage rocket is transformed into a single-stage nuclear fusion rocket, and the saved fuel space is used to transport goods.
According to the Ministry of Space's predictions, as long as the main rocket can work normally and send the spacecraft to a high-altitude orbit, it doesn't matter if it breaks down halfway, relying on six auxiliary rockets, it is enough to reach the moon.
Anyway, this Chang'e-3 is a disposable, I don't expect it to return, as long as the spacecraft is sent to the lunar orbit, it can act as a meteorite and conduct a collision test on the moon.
Chang'e-3 is actually a transitional product that is in a hurry, and when people send it, there will be new lunar spacecraft constantly being designed. As nuclear fusion technology matures from generation to generation, the lunar spacecraft will sooner or later evolve into a space shuttle in the true sense of the word, which can realize the round-trip transportation of the moon in a single stage.
Of course, this is the vision, and if this goal can be achieved within five years, it will already be a high incense burning.
In order to achieve the goal of landing the first astronauts on the moon within three months, the Ministry of Aerospace has to urgently design and manufacture Chang'e-3, and the special service department has a lot of work, and the special service department needs to prepare a complete set of lunar life support and work systems for the astronauts.
If you want astronauts to work on the moon for a long time and scrape 500,000 square kilometers of lunar skin, if you let scientific and technological civilization do it, it is really super complicated, and there are countless problems that need to be solved.
And this matter is left to the biological civilization to solve, it is much simpler, biophotovoltaic technology can convert sunlight into energy, supporting the operation of the entire system.
The luncheon tree can provide food and form a recycling of carbon dioxide, and the manure can be disposed of in the garbage decomposition toilet to achieve the recycling and reuse of organic matter. Using similar proven technologies, biotechnology can easily build a life-sustaining system without taking up too much volume and energy.
The construction of biological civilization in the working environment also has great advantages, the variability of biological equipment can be recycled, the scope of application is wide, and it is suitable for dealing with complex environments, which are difficult for scientific and technological civilization to have.
It is precisely because of these advantages of biological civilization that Chang'e-3 basically adopts the structure of scientific and technological civilization, but the lunar landing equipment it carries is basically based on biological civilization.
Within three months, the Secret Service needed to design and manufacture all the equipment needed by the five astronauts on the moon.

"Master Ball! Ball-grown! A joking call sounded in Lan Hai's ears, and Lan Hai couldn't help but connect the communication.
It has been more than a month since he came to the moon, and Blue Ocean has been directing many colonists to build the moon base step by step in strict accordance with the design drawings.
After all, there are only more than 100 people in the lunar colonists, and everyone looks up and doesn't look down, and they nest in the same space all day long, and after everyone gets acquainted, some guys soon give him a nickname - Master Ball!
According to those guys, the moon is his biggest, and he can theoretically manage the entire moon, so he should be called the master of the ball!
"What's the matter?"
"Ball grower, we found something interesting." There was a crisp and crisp voice from the headphones, and just listening to the sound, there was a smell of a female man.
Blue Ocean doesn't need to look at the caller ID to know that this must be the sixth team responsible for exploration.
"What exactly did you find?"
"Master Ball, just look at it." I bought a pass on the other side and sent a few pictures.
Blue Ocean knows at a glance,This must be the picture on the body recorder that was intercepted,The picture is a little blurry,It should be taken in motion,And the quality of the picture itself is not good when taken from the videoγ
But even so, Lan Hai can still clearly distinguish the content on the photo, but the more he looks at it, the more strange his face becomes, and his expression at this time is as if he has opened a dye shop, colorful and smelly.
"Captain, how's it going? See what this is? A gruff male voice burst in.
"This is where Armstrong landed?"
"That's right! It's the guy who took a big leap from humanity! Pretend to be a thief. Another male voice interjected.
"What's so nice about this, I don't know how many hundreds of times I've watched it." Blue Ocean threw the picture into the recycling bin, and now he is busy to death every day, who has the leisure time to remember the martyrs.
"Master Ball, the moon is our territory now, don't you have any ideas?" Then the woman said again.
"What are you going to do?" Blue Ocean couldn't help but be vigilant, since these guys went to the moon, they really didn't care about it, it was like Erha who broke the chain, and he was completely unrestrained.
"Master Ball, I remember we have a share of freight, right?"
"Yes......" The blue ocean is confused, the colonists have a share of freight, and they can regularly send things to relatives and friends on the earth, or receive express delivery from the earth, which is the benefit of the management center to each colonist, but where is this?
"Master Ball! I want to use my share of freight this quarter, so I'll send this flag to the President of the United States! β
