Chapter 595 "Returner" Spaceship Accident (The third update is completed, please subscribe and monthly pass)
After a long journey, the 'returner' spacecraft entered the lunar orbit from the earth-moon migration orbit and moved around the moon.

Everyone knows that the next step will be a crucial step for the lunar module to land on the moon!
Under the eyes of everyone, the lunar module separated from the command module and began to make a parabolic motion, heading towards the moon.

"Sure enough, the distance to the moon landing point is still a lot worse!" Qin Yuanqing looked at the trajectory of the lunar module, and quickly calculated the result in his mind.

As calculated by Qin Yuanqing, the lunar module finally landed in a valley, which is hundreds of kilometers away from the last time NASA's "Pathfinder" probe left the life module on the moon. This means that the life module will It's useless and can't be used anymore!

This is why the moon landing point needs to be accurately calculated. Even if it is only a second away from the landing, it will have a big impact.

However, when the lunar module landed on the surface of the moon, NASA immediately announced that the "return to the moon program" executed by the "returner" spacecraft was a complete success, and the photos of the astronauts out of the cabin Announced to the public for the first time.

Immediately, a big wave of applause was sent to NASA, and major media praised NASA's spaceflight feat. Even CNSA also praised NASA's manned moon landing activities for its contribution to human spaceflight. I believe there will be more and more in the future. Many national space agencies have successfully manned the moon.At the same time, it is emphasized again that CNSA always upholds that the moon is shared by all mankind, and always welcomes all countries to develop lunar resources.
The entire CNSA announcement is completely correct, and it couldn't be more correct. However, people overseas always feel weird when they see this announcement, as if there is something wrong.

Nima!

We also want to go to the moon to develop resources, but the question is can we go to the moon? !

Speechless!

At this time, the NASA ground command center, conference room
"From the current point of view, it is 104.85 kilometers away from the location of the life module. It is not advisable to take the life module and use the life module. However, when the lunar module returns to the lunar orbit and connects with the command module, the second moon landing can be done. Try again and see if you can land where the life capsule is!" Louis said in a deep voice, the chief engineer of the manned moon landing.

To be honest, the lunar landing point of the "Pathfinder" probe was relatively cheap last time, so everyone is psychologically aware of the offset of the "Returner" spacecraft's lunar landing point this time, and will not Surprised.

The real surprise is that this moon landing point is too cheap, which means that NASA is far away from CNSA in precision operations.

Such a large error also means that the manned landing on the moon actually has a very limited time to stay on the surface of the moon. The symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning, and it will not produce any benefits.

If we talk about benefits, it may be that taking this opportunity, NASA can announce that NASA is still the leader in the global aerospace field, but it is not an absolute leader, but one of the leaders!

Moreover, they can condense their national pride and vent their depression, and the society will reduce some contradictions.

However, NASA's plan is more than that. They want astronauts to spend ten days and half a month on the surface of the moon to carry out more scientific research tasks and verify some scientific assumptions.There is no doubt that if you return to Earth after staying for a few hours, even if the astronauts return smoothly, even if NASA has the confidence to declare that the manned moon landing is a success, it will actually be a loss, and it will still be a blood loss.

"Then make an adjustment when returning to the surface of the moon for the second time!"

NASA is feeling tremendous pressure. This pressure is brought about by being one step behind in the aerospace field. Many people have even expressed their opinions publicly, thinking that they should check NASA to see how NASA’s funds have been used for so many years. But Can such a thing stand up to investigation?

There is no way to investigate, and a lot of people will die if they do so.

A work chair costs tens of thousands of dollars. This kind of thing does not only exist in some departments, and NASA is not without this kind of thing.

And if you want to survive all crises, you must win this space competition. Only huge victories, one after another, can cover up some dark things, and make ordinary people think that NASA's annual funding is worth it.

Just when CNSA thought that after the American lunar module returned to the lunar orbit and connected with the command module, the "reentrant" spacecraft would set off to return to the earth, but it turned out that after the lunar module was resupplied, the astronauts operated the lunar module and the command module again. The module separates and the second lunar landing continues.

After Qin Yuanqing got the news, he also immediately watched the internal video. The satellite and the monitoring system on the surface of the moon were constantly monitoring. Qin Yuanqing saw that the trajectory of the lunar module had been adjusted, and immediately understood NASA's plan.

"It turned out that I was not reconciled to the deviation of the moon landing point so much, and wanted to correct it to the predetermined location, and use the life capsule to prolong the time on the moon." Qin Yuanqing secretly said, but unfortunately, according to the trajectory of the light spot, Qin Yuanqing has already calculated it. The second deviation is still not small, and NASA's plan fell through.

Sure enough, NASA held a media conference the next day, announcing that the astronauts had successfully completed the manned mission to the moon and were about to return to Earth.

Naturally, NASA will not tell the outside world about this kind of thing. Its moonset point has shifted greatly, but it failed to adjust it. If that is the case, it is undoubtedly equivalent to slapping itself.

Therefore, when nothing could be done, the 'returner' spacecraft embarked on the way back.

But it seems that this time the "Returner" spacecraft is destined to bring some ups and downs. Just as the "Returner" spacecraft entered Earth orbit, NASA is already organizing a grand welcome ceremony, the oxygen tank of the "Returner" spacecraft There was an explosion that severely damaged the spacecraft, causing the loss of much of its oxygen and power.

Astronauts had to be transferred to the lunar module as lifeboats in space.Although the command module systems were not damaged, they were shut down before returning to Earth's atmosphere to conserve power.

The four astronauts, caught in the crisis of lack of electricity, normal temperature and drinking water, not only stopped manipulating the lunar module, but also began to prepare to return to the earth.

After all, the lithium hydroxide filter used to filter carbon dioxide on the lunar module is not enough for the four astronauts to wait for rescue from the earth.

If you want to survive, you must successfully land and return to the earth's surface within a day.

It's a pity that NASA did not announce the problem encountered by the "Reentrant" spacecraft. As a result, Huaxia's monitoring system was puzzled and found that the lunar module of the "Reentrant" spacecraft was inexplicably separated from the command module, and the spacecraft such as the command module seemed to be lost. The manipulation was average, but it collided with an American military satellite, and they all fell into the atmosphere, turning into fire balls under high-speed friction.

At this time, NASA has become a mess, and various ground monitoring systems and satellites in the sky have been mobilized to monitor the trajectory and position of the lunar module landing, and then start rescue as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the landing point of the lunar module was not on land, and no house was destroyed. It landed on the Pacific Ocean.

It wasn't until NASA held a media conference half a month later that they learned that the 'Returner' spacecraft encountered an accident when it was about to return from space.After the heroic astronauts rescued themselves, the four astronauts transferred to the lunar module, and the lunar module landed on the earth. Through emergency search and rescue, the lunar module was picked up from the Pacific Ocean.

It is a pity that due to the violent impact, when the search and rescue team picked up the lunar module, one of the four astronauts had died, one astronaut was seriously injured and admitted to the hospital, and the remaining two astronauts also suffered injuries to varying degrees.

NASA has repeatedly emphasized that the manned moon landing of the "Reentrant" spacecraft was successful. Although there were a few small twists and turns in the last part of the return, it did not hinder the greatness of the manned moon landing of the "Reentrant" spacecraft.It is a pity that one astronaut died and one was seriously injured, but this is a great contribution to the spaceflight industry of mankind, and mankind will remember their efforts.

Watching NASA's press conference, the beautiful spokesperson kept emphasizing that Qin Yuanqing was amused in his heart, and he was really stubborn. If you fail, you fail. What is the overall success? What is the contribution to the great aerospace cause of mankind? The world will remember it honor their contributions.

However, Qin Yuanqing did not gloat. This is an indispensable setback for human beings to explore space, and it is through such setbacks that human beings move forward bravely.

Entering 2027 at this time, Qin Yuanqing didn't even go home for the Spring Festival, but came to a huge assembly plant, because in the next month, the miniaturized 'Golden Crow Device', magnetic fluid generator, plasma engine, Gravity devices will be installed successively on the first aerospace plane 'K1'.

Qin Yuanqing is not at ease if he is not watching the site all the time. This kind of post-inlaying to complete the final assembly requires very high precision, so high that even an error of 0.1 mm is not allowed.

Once the entire assembly of the aerospace plane 'K1' is completed, after the initial verification of the avionics system and plasma engine, the aerospace plane 'K1' will hold a roll-off ceremony, and the second aerospace plane 'K2' will enter In the construction process, after completing a series of verifications, test flights, and tests, it can be mass-produced, which means that the aerospace aircraft has entered the service stage. It is planned to produce 10 aerospace aircraft of this type in the next 50 years.

At the same time, the construction of other types of aerospace planes will also be carried out. After the construction of the "Double Ring Space Station" is completed, the aerospace plane will completely eliminate the rocket launch method, and it will have the ability to lock the space, which can be done for several hours. The ability to reach any corner of the earth within.

By then, the 'Double Ring Space Station' will not only be a large-scale space station, but also a fortress in the sky, with strong defense and attack capabilities, and it will also be an aerospace home port, serving as a port for the earth to enter space.

A lot of construction work will no longer be done on the earth's surface, but directly on the "double-ring space station". After all, in the weightless state, the performance of many materials manufactured is far beyond the earth's surface.

It is also true that the weightless state of space is also considered by many scholars to be a valuable space resource and a huge treasure.
