Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Aerospace Ground Command Center.

At this moment, a group of people are standing in black.

Among them are Director Li of the Science and Industry Bureau, Hou Guang, director of the Aerospace Research Institute of the Jinling Institute of Advanced Research, Academician Yuan Huanmin, chief engineer of the Aerospace Group, and Lu Zhou, who has just arrived from Shanghai ...

And, an old man with special status.

At this important moment concerning the aerospace cause, and even the future of the Republic, almost all high-level members of the Lunar Orbit Construction Committee have appeared here.

On the large floor screen directly in front of the control room, there are a pair of eyes full of expectations and complex emotions, just like the closed delivery room door.

It's just that it's not the baby behind it.

It's something called hope.

"It doesn't matter if it fails, we can still try slowly."

Hearing the sound from the side, Lu Zhou shook his head slightly.

"It is impossible to fail."

Not only the people of the whole country are waiting for the result, the eyes of the whole world are gathered here.

He can even bet that media such as BBC and CNN must have written two press releases. One copy corresponds to a successful result, and the other corresponds to a failure.

Exactly which press release will appear on the headlines tomorrow depends entirely on their results today.

After hearing Lu Zhou's confident speech, the old man smiled and nodded.

"It is naturally the best to succeed once, and I am just here to make a deal with you. Aerospace is a century-old cause, and the benefit is the future. This marathon about the future, we won and can afford it."

"But speaking, building a city on the moon ... is it really feasible?"

As soon as he heard this sentence, Lu Zhou immediately understood what the old man was thinking at the moment.

Apparently, the celebration program named "We", or the audience that infected the audience, also stimulated his emotions.

For this problem, Lu Zhou seriously thought about it for a while.

It took about half a minute or so before he answered.

"From a practical point of view, there is such a need. From a technical point of view, it is difficult, but it is not entirely hopeless."

In fact, the Moon is not a perfect candidate for colony, too low gravity, large temperature difference, and no protection from the atmosphere and magnetic field. However, at present, it is the new continent where earth civilization has the most hope to reach first and benefit from its development.

Its existence is like the island of Teserra on the Atlantic Ocean. Although it is small in area and not rich in products, it has become a springboard from the Renaissance to Europe and the New World.

With the breakthrough of controllable fusion technology, earth civilization has entered the second half of the early days of the aerospace era and has obtained tickets to travel to distant worlds. However, if you want to travel farther away, earth civilization also needs a springboard.

Obviously, the moon has such potential.

There is simply a natural "harbour" and experimental field.

If they can overcome the harsh lunar environment and go further afield, there should be no major problems.

It seemed that he got the expected answer from Lu Zhou. The old man nodded, and his hands were behind his back.

"Then I'm relieved ... Speaking of it, how long will it take?"

Lu Zhou glanced at the time on his watch and replied.

"It's about to begin!"

While talking, the hour hand has reached the right time.

The uniformed staff in the command room seemed to be busy with orderly gears.

The units quickly completed the final inspection of the equipment. With all normal responses coming from the moon, the commander of the ground command center finally issued a command to "start loading."

With the issuing of this instruction, on the moon more than 300,000 kilometers away, an experimental cargo capsule shaped like a bullet will be installed on the launch track by the staff of the moon science research station.

The entire cargo hold weighs six tons and is filled with biological research samples such as moon soil rocks collected from the moon, space crops and seeds harvested by the planting unit, and Dr-111 active substances.

If these goods were brought back to earth by the original method, the cost per kilogram would be at least 200,000 yuan.

If the super-conducting magnetic orbit can be replaced by a chemical propulsion-free return capsule, the cargo can be accurately launched directly from the lunar surface to the Earth-Moon transfer orbit. These goods were collected and pulled back together, and the cost per kilogram of goods could even be reduced to less than two thousand yuan.

This may sound strange, but in fact it is.

If this project can be realized, at least one thousand yuan per kilograms of plutonium, dysprosium, and Qiang rare earth minerals per kilogram or more--these strategic resources related to the high-tech industry's life gate can be obtained from the moon Get on.

If this project can be realized, this will undoubtedly be a milestone in the history of spaceflight.

Now everything is ready.

All arrows are on the strings!

As the green light on the large-screen landing light turned on for the second time, everyone standing in the command room clenched their fists involuntarily, waiting for the countdown to determine fate.

"ten."

"nine."

"Eight."

"..."

"three."

"two."

"One."

"zero."

"emission!"

The powerful voice sounded like the firing of a starting gun.

After a delay of one second, a slight tremor sounded suddenly below the moon's ground 300,000 kilometers away, and along the solid lunar rock, climbed up to the astronauts' boots standing near the launch orbit bottom.

The electric energy that has been stored for a long time is released in an instant, condensed into a solid plasma in the vacuum titanium alloy pipe, wrapped in horrible thrust, pushing the silver "bullet" forward.

For a moment, the white awn seemed to pierce the space and distort the light!

Dozens of kilometers of track were instantly crossed in less than a minute!

From the moon's surface, it suddenly shot into the cargo compartment of the sky, like a projectile ejected from the muzzle, and along with the billowing moon dust, ran towards the vast starry sky.

The angle of view gradually extended, and the lens switched to the Moon Palace.

Under everyone's attention, the silver bullet was like one of thousands of stars, with a green beacon flashing on its head, rising quickly from one side of the moon, and then drawing a narrow arc , Galloping in the direction of the earth-moon transfer orbit ...

Already half done!

However, everyone in the ground command center dared not take it lightly.

The first half of the launch mission is mainly responsible for the Moon Palace, while the second half of the merger, docking and final return is completely guided by the ground command center.

The battlefield that belongs to them has just begun!

"The cargo hold control system is successfully connected and the instrument operation is being checked ..."

"All instrument parameters are normal! Connect to active navigation system!"

"The navigation system was successfully launched! The cargo compartment speed is 2.77km / s, and it is approaching the Qiaoqiao No. 3 cargo spacecraft. The relative distance is 507 kilometers. It is expected to be in contact in 183 seconds!

In the radar, the arcs drawn by two light yellow curves meet together, and the two flickering green dots are slowly moving along those two arcs, and approaching slowly.

As they got closer, everyone standing in the command room began to accelerate their heartbeat.

Many young scientific dogs with ordinary psychological qualities repeatedly take deep breaths, trying to control the disordered heart rate. And even if some old engineers are experienced, the situation is not so optimistic at this moment, and some people have even found out the prepared heart-saving pills from their pockets, ready to swallow one at any time.

It is impossible not to be nervous.

Only once!

Success or failure is all here!

It is not a win just to hit the cargo hold in the sky with a cannon. Only by being able to pick up the cargo hold in the sky can it be considered a real success. Otherwise, no matter how much they can achieve the initial speed of returning to the cargo hold, it cannot be considered a real victory.

When the two blinking green dots dropped from km to m at a distance from each other, almost everyone's heart mentioned his throat, and he held his breath subconsciously.

This quarter of a second is as long as a century.

Without any slightest sound, the two flickering green dots on the screen, like countless expectations, came together as if they had come together.

Everything is so natural.

No fragmentation has occurred.

So much so that ...

simple?

However, it was such a simple result. At the moment when the distance was zero, the deafening cheering sounded like a lighted detonator, and it exploded throughout the command room.

"Oooo!"

"We succeeded!"

"Woohoo ... finally, finally ... GTMD, we really did it!"

applause.

Whistle.

Cheers.

Excitement and joy filled everyone's chest, and filled everyone's eyes.

Director Li squeezed his fists excitedly.

Academician Yuan Huanmin chewed tears in his eyes, and his dry lips trembled softly, not knowing what to say.

Numerous engineers from the Aviation Science Group ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and the researchers from the Aerospace Research Institute of the Jinling Institute of Advanced Research all gave out excited exclamations.

Even the old man standing next to Lu Zhou couldn't help but raise his arm and wave his right fist, and shouted "OK!"

Years and even decades of hard work are all given realistic meaning at this moment.

Just today, they conquered the moon!

Bathed in thunderous cheers, Lu Zhou stood still in the center of the command room like a sculpture. The ecstasy that was almost overflowing from his chest caused him to lose his words ...

Through the noisy voice, Lu Zhou faintly heard from the headset worn on his head, the victory communication that was uploaded from the Qiaoqiao No. 3 cargo ship.

"Here is the Qiaoqiao No. 3 cargo ship. The package has been successfully recovered."

"We will bring back gifts from the moon in three days."

"Remember to take the wind for us!"

In fact, the announcement of victory seemed to him a little redundant.

Because at the moment where the two green dots meet, a pair of pale blue dialog boxes have gradually been printed in the pair of black eyes suddenly blurred by excitement.

Seeing the moment when the line of text appeared, Lu Zhou didn't know how to describe it for a while, the emotion in his heart at this moment.

How long has it been?

From the successful launch of the first aerospace plane, to the first manned landing on the moon in China, to the full catch-up of Lunar Palace and Lunar Hadron Collider, and the subsequent world boiling caused by it ...

All the hardships and sweats are tied together at this moment.

He has finally come to the end of this long-time mission chain.
