The technological competition starts with the integration of space-time memory

Chapter 296 Earth-Moon Highway

At this moment, the most excited person was neither Li Tang nor Gu Hongyu.

Instead, they are the first members of the lunar base construction and research team who are waiting for the Golden Chariot to successfully land on the moon and open its hatch.

In particular, Chen Tianxiao, one of the designers of the Golden Chariot, became the leader of the base construction and research team this time.

As an aircraft designer, Chen Tianxiao never thought that he would become an astronaut and was fortunate enough to be one of the first people from Dragon Country to land on the moon.

And he was riding a flying vehicle that he designed himself.

Li Tang informed him of this honor after the nuclear-powered version of the Golden Chariot surveyed the sky.

From that day on, Chen Tianxiao and all the selected personnel began comprehensive training.

Previously, I had spent a lot of time designing the first generation of [Predator] and [Golden Chariot]. My hairline has moved back a lot, and my health has been greatly depleted.

However, this time, with the help of a full set of training equipment and programs specially designed by the Biomedical Research Institute led by Li Tang, Chen Tianxiao's body was greatly supplemented and strengthened.

Completely beyond astronaut standards.

This group of researchers, represented by Chen Tianxiao, have been sitting in the office late at night doing research and development all year round.

Under this training system, all the improvement data on physical condition were recorded by the Biomedical Research Institute.

This training program will be fully promoted in the Future Science and Technology Institute in the future.

Scientists in the future will no longer be weak scholars with poor health, but researchers with strong physiques.

The reason why Li Tang appointed Chen Tianxiao as the leader of the first team to land on the moon is that he will also be the first commander-in-chief of the Guanghan Palace base on the moon.

The purpose is to let Chen Tianxiao experience the environment of outer space firsthand.

Because Chen Tianxiao had always told him that he wanted to design a truly manned fighter jet.

Li Tang said, "Go to the moon and lead a design team to design a real space fighter that can fight in space!"

When Chen Tianxiao heard this, he felt his blood boiling.

Whether it is landing on the moon or building the Guanghan Palace base with personal hands, this will go down in history.

What's more, you can design a real space fighter on the moon yourself.

The moment when the Golden Chariot took off and entered the weightlessness of space.

Chen Tianxiao burst into tears with excitement.

He then completely immersed himself in the world of a designer, feeling the various differences in space and spreading the wings of his imagination for future space fighters.

This time, the direct manned lunar landing of [King Chariot] not only achieved direct takeoff from the ground.

It also achieved the great feat of sending 39 people to the moon in one go.

In fact, this number can be increased further.

But after all, space exploration involves unknown risks. In line with the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket, we cannot send too many people at once.

Anyway, the [Golden Car] for the second and third groups has already been prepared and can take off at any time.

At this time, on the Mengying platform, the Jincha manned lunar landing was broadcast live throughout the process.

The official live broadcast room of Datang Aerospace is hosted by Chen Yao, the beautiful anchor of Shangdu TV Station.

The two guests are an expert from the Longguo Space Administration and Lu Tianming, one of the designers of the Golden Chariot. They will provide on-site explanations and answer questions.

After the [Golden Car] took off directly and entered space, the number of comments in the live broadcast room reached over 10 billion.

When the Golden Chariot really started heading towards the moon from outer space, the number of comments soared again, reaching over 20 billion!

What is truly astonishing is the number of online viewers in the upper left corner of the live broadcast room.

There are already more than 26 billion!

This number once again allows the world to see the amazing capacity of the Mengying platform.

There are more than 80 billion people in the world, including children under the age of 6 and people over 85, totaling 12 billion.

The remaining 68 billion people are the maximum number of users of the Mengying platform.

Although the Mengying platform has never disclosed the number of registered users since its user base exceeded 20 billion.

Just this live broadcast alone is enough to make people imagine endlessly.

Some people conservatively estimate that three quarters of the 68 billion effective population, or about 51 billion people, should have registered on the Mengying platform.

As the Golden Chariot flew toward the moon, it stopped twice in succession.

As we all know, the distance from the Blue Planet to the Moon is 38 kilometers.

If the spacecraft flies directly to the moon at the second cosmic speed, that is, 11.2 km/s, it will only take 13 hours to reach the moon.

Why does it take the Long March 5 and Chang'e 5 five days to reach the moon if they fly at this speed?

The answer is to save the fuel needed for rockets!
Because Chang'e 5 is flying through orbital transfer, the actual distance is much longer.

This is mainly to utilize the gravity of the blue planet and the moon itself.

When a spacecraft flies around a planet, it does not need to consume fuel because of the planet's gravity.

With the [Golden Car], there is no such burden of saving fuel.

Because the [Golden Chariot] is nuclear-powered, a little bit of nuclear fuel is enough to allow the [Golden Chariot] to fly a long distance.

So, in the live broadcast room, when Lu Tianming told everyone that the maximum speed of the [Golden Chariot] could reach Mach 100, which is higher than the third cosmic speed.

The space agency experts in the live broadcast room were stunned.

This speed is far beyond the third cosmic speed and can completely fly out of the solar system.

The comment section of the live broadcast room was immediately filled with comments. "Oh my god, the Golden Chariot is indeed prepared for landing on Mars!"

"Mark is going to cry in the bathroom now."

"Starships are still using chemical energy, while [Golden Chariot] is already using nuclear energy. The two are completely on a different level."

"I just want to ask, if something happens to the nuclear reactor of the Golden Chariot, will it fall from space? Wouldn't that be a threat to all of humanity?"

"Yes, yes, yes. It would be best if the Future Science and Technology Research Institute could provide all the technical information of this nuclear reactor and accept supervision by the International Atomic Energy Agency."

"That's amazing. How come Da Mao and the Empire didn't ask for supervision over the thousands of mushroom eggs?"

"Some people can't stand the fact that the Future Technology Research Institute is more advanced than theirs!"

"I think they should be more worried about throwing mushroom eggs from the [Golden Car], right?"

"Yes, the Golden Car is so big that it can hold thousands of mushroom eggs."

"The Empire is going to cry!"

……

When the [Golden Cart] stopped midway, the scene of unloading some of the cargo from the warehouse was broadcast live.

Not only did the space agency guests in the live broadcast room fall silent, but the comment section was also eerily quiet for a while.

Then it exploded again.

"Oh my god, when did such a big space station appear here?"

"The [Golden Car] flew straight to the moon and even delivered goods here!"

"My country is so great! It turns out that our aerospace technology has reached the point where we can build a station to the moon without anyone noticing!"

"My scalp is numb! This space station was definitely not built in a day or two."

"Calling the Imperial Space Agency, what is your space monitoring network for!"

"Yeah, what a waste of our taxpayers' money!"

"Damn you Mark! He actually asked Congress to allocate funds to him. Others have even built a highway to the moon, and you are still blowing up starships for fun!"

"The stock market crash deserves it. The empire has completely fallen!"

……

In the live broadcast room, host Chen Yao said excitedly: "Dear viewers, what you just saw is the transit space station that Datang Aerospace prepared for the moon landing.

Certain supplies are stored here, such as various accessories, fuel, etc. ”

At this moment, the expert from the space agency couldn't help but ask Lu Tianming.

"When did you build a transit space station between the Blue Planet and the Moon? I've never heard you mention it."

Lu Tianming nodded, "I was not responsible for this matter, so I am not too clear about the process. But two transfer space stations were indeed established.

It has two uses. On the one hand, the Golden Car, which will be able to take off from the ground in the future, can be used for emergency supplies, maintenance, etc. at the transfer station.

This is mainly to prepare for the future launch of Earth-Moon flights.

After all, it is reasonable for ordinary people to travel to the moon in the [Golden Chariot] and take a break along the way, right?

On the other hand, it can establish a relay for communications between the Earth and the Moon, ensuring the smooth flow of high-speed Internet.

After all, if you want to work and travel on the moon, you must be able to access the Internet and log in to the DreamNet platform. That makes sense, right? "

The experts from the space agency were thinking in their hearts but nodding their heads.

"It's a very reasonable idea. Building two service areas on the Earth-Moon Expressway is probably something we would only think of and do."

Lu Tianming nodded, "You've got a good idea. The Earth-Moon Expressway is a good name."

The comment section became even more noisy after hearing the conversation between the two.

"I finally realized that infrastructure maniacs are just as crazy in space!"

"Yes, think about the headquarters base of the Future Science and Technology Research Institute. It took only half a year to stand on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, with a thousand-meter-high building. What a great power!"

"Ah, now I'm really looking forward to the Guanghan Palace base they are going to build on the moon!"

"Yeah, how long did they say it would take to be built?"

"I just went to their official website to look at the plans. I can only say that when it comes to construction speed, I have to admire the Dragon people!"

"I checked it too, and it's actually two months?!"

"This is terrible! Is this the fourth industrial revolution that President Li claimed?"

"The Empire is really lagging far behind. There will probably only be one superpower in the world from now on!"

"No wonder the products in the super mall of the [Mengying] platform are so cheap, their productivity is amazing!"

……

Amid the discussions of people all over the world, the Golden Chariot accelerated towards the moon.

After a total flight of four hours, the Golden Chariot had already flown over the moon.

The planet that everyone sees every day presents an amazing high-definition picture under the main camera carried by the Golden Chariot.

If it is a conventional lunar landing mode, it will definitely fly around the lunar orbit first, and then start to decelerate after the lunar landing position is confirmed.

Afterwards, the lander and the lunar orbiter separated, and the lander landed towards the designated location on the moon.

But, that’s not the case with [Golden Chariot].
