Chapter 274 Overseas astronauts fleeing the moon(1/3)
After several days of flight, the Shenzhou spacecraft finally reached the predetermined area on the moon. Under the instructions of the ground station control center, the Yutu lunar module successfully separated from the spacecraft and began to descend towards the lunar surface.
It is worth mentioning that only three astronauts actually landed on the lunar surface this time.
The remaining one must stay in the spacecraft control room.
"This is the Yutu lunar module. It has successfully separated from the Shenzhou and is landing in the planned area."
"Permission to land."
…
"Eight hundred meters from the moon's surface!"
"Five hundred meters."
"Three hundred meters.
…
"Ten meters."
"Successful landing."
When the continuous broadcast sounded in the ground station control center and live broadcast room, a burst of warm cheers suddenly came from the control center.
All the engineering staff stood up and applauded in congratulations.
From the time the astronauts set off in the space elevator to the successful landing of the lunar module on the lunar surface, everyone has put in all their efforts. Although the dust has not settled yet, it can already be called a great success.
It is normal for people to be more excited and have larger reactions.
At this time, Xu Lei did not hesitate and immediately issued instructions to the Yutu lunar module: "Check the working status of various equipment and prepare to leave the module."
"Jade Rabbit understands."
The lunar module successfully landed on the lunar surface and successfully completed its mission.
Next, if astronauts want to leave the cabin and actually take action on the moon, they will have to rely entirely on their own space suits and life capsules. At this time, they must be fully prepared.
Otherwise, if an emergency occurs on the moon, there will be no time for rescue.
At the same time, this period of time is also reserved for the astronauts to mentally build up. After all, they need to stay on the moon for at least a few days after leaving the cabin. This kind of loneliness, where they may face the danger of death at any time, is really very harmful to the human will.
A big test.
Even the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help but hold their breath at this time, looking forward to the astronauts taking this step.
"Cheer up, everyone across the country is paying attention to us. We will definitely be able to complete this task. Everyone must believe in the country's scientific and technological level."
at the same time.
Inside the Yutu lunar landing module.
Just listen to the veteran astronauts who have already put on the space suits, cheering for the two newcomers through the communication device in the helmet, with a look of determination and excitement in their eyes.
Upon hearing this, Ye Junmin took the lead and nodded slightly, then manually opened the door of the lunar module.
Because at this moment, all the audience's perspective is on Ye Junmin. As the hatch opens to reveal the scenery outside, this almost immersive feeling immediately makes people feel so shocked that there is no way to describe it in words.
Especially when Ye Junmin stepped out of the capsule with his left foot and stepped on the lunar soil, the powerful visual impact instantly drove the audience in the live broadcast room into madness.
The barrage refresh speed has reached an unprecedented level.
"Is this the view you can see standing on the moon? It's so shocking!"
"Mom, I went to the moon."
"It feels so desolate. Sure enough, the myths and legends are all false."
"Is there a laurel tree on the moon?"
"The dream of five thousand years has finally become a reality. Today is a day that can be recorded in history."
"Will we build a temporary base on the moon next? It's simply too powerful!"
…
After Ye Junmin felt the condition of his left foot, he was stunned for two seconds, and then he carefully controlled his body and walked out of the lunar module.
Due to the less attractive force on the moon, Ye Junmin moved very easily, even while wearing a heavy space suit.
Not long after.
The remaining two astronauts also successfully emerged from the capsule.
However, they did not come here to appreciate the lunar environment. They had to use every minute effectively when they were tasked with an important mission. Therefore, they did not care about enjoying the scenery and quickly started to disassemble the life capsule on the lunar module.
The so-called life capsule is an important piece of equipment for astronauts to survive temporarily.
Not only does it have oxygen inside, but it can also use carbon dioxide to synthesize starch to meet food needs, and it can also replenish and recycle the required materials. Before a real lunar base is built, it is perfect for astronauts to temporarily live on the moon.
The three astronauts disassembled the life capsule very skillfully, and then repaired the lunar rover they carried.
After loading the supplies and equipment into the car, the three of them took the life capsule to the predetermined base location.
"You two, follow me closely. We must reach the temporary base and set up the life capsule before the oxygen in the space suit runs out."
After determining the location of the temporary base, the veteran astronaut among the three gave special instructions to Ye Junmin and the two of them, and they immediately started taking action.
Ye Junmin and the two naturally followed closely.
At this time, the Shenzhou spacecraft orbiting the moon also began to change its trajectory, preparing to return to low-Earth orbit to dock with the Tiangong space station again. After completing the fuel injection, it headed to the moon again.
To put it simply, Ye Junmin and the others have to survive on the moon for at least a few days.
Waiting for Shenzhou to deliver supplies and new personnel.
As for the Yutu lunar module, it will remain on the lunar surface temporarily because it may be able to play a life-saving role in the event of a sudden crisis.
Anyway, when it was first being manufactured, several Yutu lunar modules were built.
Of course, the safety of Ye Junmin and others on the moon can still be effectively guaranteed. After all, the life capsule technology is included in the space elevator technology. Since it is a museum collection, there will never be any problems.
The audience in the live broadcast room were immediately shocked when they saw the astronauts' posture of surviving in the wilderness. It was hard to imagine that their generation would see humans surviving on the moon.
It would have been something that would have been unthinkable in the past.
So much so that the thinking of many people has become vivid, thinking that relying on the life capsule, ordinary people can also go to the moon and experience it.
As a result, there has been a significant increase in inquiries about space elevator tickets.
"Surviving in the wilderness on the moon is definitely the ceiling of this type of program."
"I thought I would be strong if I could successfully land on the moon, but I didn't expect to survive on the moon."
"When can ordinary people experience it? We can set a ticket price for the space elevator. I will definitely buy it when the time comes."
"I'm afraid you can't afford it."
"A ticket to enter the space station or even the moon would cost thousands of dollars anyway. It's really a price I can't afford."
"Brother, you might as well be more bold."
"I don't know why, but when I saw this, I suddenly felt worried about the astronauts."
The ground station control center will definitely not pay too much attention to the comments from the audience in the live broadcast room. After all, whether the astronauts can activate the life capsule within a limited time is very critical. They still need to invest 100%.
Two's energy attention.
Deal with and solve problems encountered by astronauts in a timely manner.
Mainly, the Shenzhou spacecraft has begun to return to the Tiangong Space Station, and the Yutu lunar module cannot return. Now the only thing the astronauts can rely on is the ground control center.
"Academician Xu, look, this is the location of the Guanghan Palace lunar base we selected. After detection, this area is rich in resources." Control Center Wu Chuping pointed to the three-dimensional model of the lunar surface that had just been brought up in front of him, and carefully introduced the base.
Thing: "The astronauts will arrive here to temporarily station themselves later, and they will use the space elevator and Shenzhou spacecraft to transport supplies and personnel. I believe that soon this base will have the ability to survive."
The three-dimensional lunar surface model Wu Chuping mentioned is located in a crater that is not particularly deep. The efficiency of building a permanent base can undoubtedly be much higher with the help of geographical advantages.
So Xu Lei didn't have any objections to this.
The Guanghan Palace Lunar Base is naturally a project named by the space agency a long time ago, which can be regarded as reflecting the special feelings of the Chinese people towards the moon.
"It is indeed a very suitable place." Xu Lei nodded and responded, affirming Wu Chuping's explanation.
Since the location of the crater was not too far from the landing site of the Yutu lunar module, Ye Junmin and the others successfully reached their destination in no time due to the weak attraction of the moon.
And immediately set about placing the life capsule and trying to activate it.
Xu Lei is not worried about the safety of the three of them. You must know that he provided the design drawings of the life capsule, and he knows its functions very well.
It can absolutely guarantee that astronauts can survive on the moon in a short period of time.
——
At the same time, a few kilometers away from the Yutu lunar module, the situation of overseas astronauts was not very optimistic.
"The astronauts are in good physical condition and the temporary base equipment is operating normally."
Dali Rover Island.
La Jor Space Force Base.
In the command center, Hayden listened to the report from the moon. His originally nervous expression finally relaxed a lot, and he felt relieved.
