Chapter 592: Fuel

"This is normal, in fact, I think the main reason is to launch with a missile, if it is an airdrop or a fixed detonation, it may be much better."

Shen Zuozhou nodded, but the fear in his heart still hadn't completely disappeared:

"Nuclear war...... It's terrifying, I can't imagine if a hydrogen bomb exploded here too...... Peace, especially in the nuclear-armed world, is too important. ”

He had never wanted war so strongly, and it was unimaginable to think of the consequences of the fall of civilization in the future when the scientific essence that had created countless industrial miracles, produced the most powerful rockets, and the most advanced chips turned into ashes.

"Of course, no one wants this to happen, if ......"

Xiao Okada was talking when he was suddenly interrupted by a loud noise, he looked out of the window in dismay, this is the family community of the Space Agency, close to the inner ring of the capital, but what is going on with the fireworks outside!

It seemed to be very close to his location, and the fireworks took up almost the entire night sky.

But then a shrill alarm bell sounded, anyway, if a fire broke out in the capital because of this, it would be a great event!

But the masses are really full of talent, just like after the moon landing in July, how did they evade the security checks and bring these things in?!

The sudden fireworks seemed to be the beginning of some kind of signal, and beautiful fireworks were scattered all over the city, and the same was true on the screens of skyscrapers in the distance.

Shen Zuozhou's originally stiff face finally eased down at this moment, and he was pulled back to reality from the destruction of the nuclear bomb:

"Anyway, we have that power...... Lao Xiao, we should do our own thing and make the country stronger and stronger. ”

Xiao Okada nodded fiercely:

"Those who offend me as a strong man will be punished even if they are far away."

"Uh...... I almost forgot, we have to rest early, tomorrow the Nine Chapter will land on the moon, but we can't go out of the pool. ”

"Chapter Nine has been wandering around the lunar orbit for a day, right? I knew that I should have launched a day earlier, and I guess everyone is not in a good state now. ”

"Then you shouldn't have to worry too much, your Xinyuan's intelligent technology is so strong, we can't intervene remotely anyway, we have to believe in science."

……

"Oops!"

Feeling the morning sunlight of the imperial capital shining through the gaps in the curtains, Yu Man turned over reluctantly, and then heard the exclamations of the people around him full of chagrin.

She expertly pasted it on, and said softly:

"What's wrong?"

Since yesterday, Lin Ju has been a little abnormal, first unhappy because of the loss of satellites, and then happy because of the breakthrough in laser technology, and it started again early this morning.

She felt Lin Ju turn sideways towards her, and then held her cheeks on both sides with both hands.

"It occurred to me that I forgot to tell you something, I should have told you yesterday!"

"What?"

Yu Man's eyes didn't open, but he still muttered very cooperatively.

"I remembered the plot of a female frequency that I had read before...... It's the kind of domineering president, you know?

In order to celebrate the female owner, the male protagonist in it set off hundreds of atomic bombs as fireworks, and this time it can be indirectly regarded as me! ”

“……”

Yu Man finally opened his eyes, stared at Lin Ju with a face full of regret a few times, and continued to sleep after revealing most of the whites of his eyes.

Even though he knew that he was surrounded by a reborn person, or a traverser or some other alien, this kind of jumping thinking was still amazing.

Lin Ju, who sat up, slapped his thigh and regretted, this is a good opportunity to approach the domineering male president infinitely!

But before he could continue to be annoyed, he heard the sound of the alarm clock, and then he suddenly remembered that there was an arrangement for today.

Yu Man heard the sound of getting dressed quickly, and when he opened his eyes again, Lin Ju had already pushed open the door:

"I'm going to the space agency, Chapter 9 is about to land!"

……

"Hello Vice Chairman Lin, I'm Zhong Cheng."

When Lin Ju hurried to the command center, he was greeted by Zhong Cheng, the new director of the Space Administration, and the other party greeted him very friendly.

"Hello, hello, I have admired the name for a long time."

Lin Ju subconsciously politely paused for a moment, and then saw Zhong Cheng's face become extremely strange.

"If I have a big name, then I'm afraid the Security Service will take action."

“……”

This made Lin Ju suddenly feel a little more in awe of his identity, obviously the previous rumors were true, and the place where this new boss worked before was very unusual.

The two of them didn't have too much politeness, and it was already past half past nine o'clock, and the Nine Chapter had begun to slow down and prepare to land on the moon.

The landing was not broadcast live to the public, probably because it was due to reduce the pressure on the work of the Aviation Development Commission.

In front of the command hall were Academician She and Ye Changsi standing together, although there was a huge age gap between the two, but in the eyes of others, they were very chatty, as if they were peers.

When the two of them saw Lin Ju's arrival, they simply said hello and continued to focus on the Nine Chapters.

With a total weight of more than 300 tons, the Jiuzhang is the largest and heaviest single spacecraft ever built, as well as the largest and heaviest lander ever built, nearly 10 times the previous largest number in the field.

It was supposed to be the focus of the world's attention, but now the two hydrogen bombs on Toshima have taken everyone's attention, forgetting the existence of this epoch-making spacecraft for the time being.

The first stage of deceleration braking is now being carried out with the two engines in the tail, and the hydrogen-oxygen engine is barely visible when it works in space, and the blazing fire can only be seen when its apical combustion chamber is viewed from a distance.

The robots near the Qom crater worked day and night to clear an open space the size of a football field and create a solid landing field with little rubble.

After all, the four engines of the Jiuzhang landed had a thrust of more than 100 tons, and it would be a hassle if it rolled up the gravel and hit itself.

Such an accuracy requirement can only be met by a computer, and there is a high probability that a human astronaut will not be able to do so unless he is extremely angry.

"It's heavier than all the things that all of humanity has launched on the moon combined."

Academician She suddenly spoke.

"I think the launch date of the first landers can be set on the 26th, and the first fuel tank will be ready for a few days."

Although the Chapter 9 carried a full set of automated equipment capable of producing liquid hydrogen fuel, the output was limited after all, and it mainly had to rely on ground launches in the early stage.

The "Black Rabbit" space station has a huge fuel tank, which is just enough to fill the Jiuzhang 2.5 times.

The first module to deliver fuel to the Wutu space station was ready last month — a rudimentary storage tank that was built during the construction of the Long March 18 bunkering vessel.

But the launch of the Long March 18 has temporarily drained all of the country's liquid hydrogen reserves, and it will take several days to refuel the new fuel tanks.

Of course, Lin Ju has no objection to this, but he feels that it is too troublesome to launch like this, and it will take almost a year for the moon base to be fueled independently, and it always feels a bit wasteful to launch disposable fuel tanks every time.

He suddenly thought of Musk's starship, to be honest, if that thing can be used to transport fuel, it is indeed very feasible, and the cost of transportation capacity is not high.
