The rocket carrying the Chang'e-1 lunar spacecraft is the latest Long March 6 rocket developed by the Republic, and the take-off thrust of the rocket has reached 3,500 tons!

At half past nine in the morning, the astronauts were already ready in the lunar space, and under the rocket, the crew was busy making final preparations. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Near ten o'clock, the wine/spring control room began to prepare for the ignition.

"Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven! Six! Five! Four! Three! Two! One! Ignition! ”

A strong air stream erupted from beneath the Long March 6 rocket, and the rocket took off into the air.

"Rocket take-off! Rocket take-off! ”

The control room personnel cheered.

But the successful take-off of the rocket was only the beginning, and everyone stared at the big screen after a brief moment of joy.

In the following time, good news came to the Lunar Exploration Center.

"Rocket first-stage and second-stage separation ......"

"Booster Separation ......"

"Throwing the fairing ......"

"Tertiary and secondary separation ......"

Half an hour after the lunar spacecraft separated from the whole and entered the satellite into a super-geosynchronous predetermined orbit with a perigee of 205 kilometers and an apogee of 50,930 kilometers with a period of 16 hours, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!

Twenty minutes later, the spacecraft's solar sails opened, signaling a successful launch.

"It worked!" Ouyang, who was over half a hundred years old, raised his arms and shouted, giving a thumbs up to Shen Huai on the other side of the video.

Shen Huai raised the champagne in his hand and wanted Ouyang to congratulate, "Hard work!" Mr. Ou! ”

There was a hint of blush on Ouyang's tired face: "I haven't completely relaxed yet, in the next ten days, the spacecraft will have to change orbit three times before it can enter the 114-hour Earth-Moon orbit, and there is no way to relax." ”

Shen Huai said: "Exploring the universe is the common dream of all mankind, maybe we will not relax in our lives, one task will be followed by another task, life is like this." ”

Ouyang laughed: "Mr. Shen, how can you have the feeling of being weathered like an old man at such a young age,"

Shen Huai is indeed full of feelings, he said: "This is the case, I don't know whether it is right or wrong to develop the intelligent network world, after all, life and death are the real life, if life is endless, and the work will never end, it will be a very terrible thing." ”

Ouyang smiled and shook his head, "Maybe other people's ideological realm is not as high as yours, and they desperately want to enter the intelligent network world, even I am no exception." ”

Shen Huai joked: "Chief Engineer Ouyang is a rare talent in the Republic, if you are willing to come to the Zhiwang World after a hundred years, I will definitely welcome you with open arms." ”

After the joke ended, Ouyang wanted to continue to monitor the flight status of the spaceship.

Shen Huai said: "Chaos creatures will definitely do their best to provide logistical support for this lunar mission. ”

Eleven days later, the Chang'e-1 lunar spacecraft reached a 12-hour orbit 200 kilometers from the moon's orbit, and everything was perfect.

On December 28, 2021, the spacecraft braked again and entered a 3.5-hour orbit around the moon, orbiting the moon.

On December 29, 2021, the spacecraft flew close to the pole and braked again, entered a synchronous orbit, and the astronauts began to prepare for landing.

The Lunar Exploration Control Center has awakened the Yutu lunar rover waiting at the foot of the crater from its sleep, and the Yutu lunar rover, which has been serving on the moon for a long time, will complete its final mission -- to shoot and transmit the facts of the lunar spacecraft from the beginning of its landing.

After completing the shooting mission, the mission of the Yutu lunar rover is over.

The paintings taken by the Jade Rabbit will also be broadcast live around the world, so that people all over the world can see the grand occasion of the Republic landing on the moon.

On December 29th, there are still a few days before New Year's Day, but this day is a festival for the people of the whole country!

Because at 11 o'clock in the morning of the imperial capital time, the lunar spacecraft will land at the foot of the crater at the north pole of the moon, and the people of the Republic will once again set foot on the moon with the dream of mankind.

Shen Huai also sat in the office and watched this grand occasion.

At eleven o'clock, the spacecraft has run to the sky above the established landing site, because the moon has no atmosphere, the spacecraft will not slow down because of the atmosphere, and there will be no parachute to slow it down, so if you are very careful when descending, only by turning on the thrust reverser engine early can you effectively reduce the speed and let the astronauts land smoothly on the surface of the moon.

However, since the gravitational pull of the Moon is only one-sixth of that of the Earth, if the strength of the buffer device is not well controlled, the spacecraft is likely to rush out of the Moon instead of landing smoothly on the surface of the Moon.

The Moon Rabbit's cameras have been turned on, and viewers around the globe can see the slowly descending ship from the screen.

"Oh my God! It's hard to believe it's true! ”

"Our moon spacecraft is about to land! It's incredible! ”

The satellite jointly developed by the Japanese and India has also adjusted its angle and observed the Chang'e moon landing 1 in a lunar synchronous orbit.

"The moon landing technology is very advanced! Keep an eye on it. "NASA headquarters looked at the broadcast footage and also recognized the technological advancement of the Republic.

In the spacecraft cabin, the astronauts also connected to the ground control center.

"How's it going?" The people in the control center kept a close eye on the situation of the three people.

Luo Yili, the leader of the moon landing team, said: "The situation here is all right, we are carrying out the set tasks, please rest assured that the control center." ”

After the deceleration, the ship began to descend slowly.

100 m ......

"The ship is descending."

50 m ......

"Everything is fine with the buffer, the ignition is normal!"

10 m ......

"The target position is normal, the speed is normal!"

5…… 4…… 3…… 2…… 1

The Chang'e-1 lunar spacecraft landed steadily at the foot of the crater at the moon's north pole.

A large amount of lunar dust was raised on the ground, and the spacecraft also left a mark on the surface of the moon.

It worked!

The Imperial Capital Lunar Exploration Center erupted in warm applause.

The audience in front of the TV also burst into applause!

"Damn, they made it!"

Although the people at NASA headquarters in the United States are unwilling, they also praise the technology of the Republic.

"The first base on the moon is about to be built by the Republic, maybe we should suggest that they find the flag of the United States." There are also people who joke very self-deprecatingly.

Tears of emotion were shed by so many people of the Republic, a great feat in the history of the Republic.

But happiness is only a short moment, and new challenges come immediately.

After a long journey of more than 10 days, the three astronauts will open the door of the spacecraft by themselves, go down on their own, and take their first steps on the moon by themselves.

The globe waited with bated breath for this step.
