Chapter 521 Moon landing

"Delaying time?" Chen Xin shook his head with a smile, and said, "General Chang, do you believe it? Even if I let the Americans fight, the United States will not be able to take Mogadishu."

"what?!"

Both Chang Siwei and Andrei Solatrovsky were stunned.

Chen Xin didn't just say these words casually. Although he won the Middle East war last time, it also reminded Chen Xin.

If you rely on the electromagnetic pulse bombs in your hands and the hundreds of advanced unmanned fighter jets, you can deal with ordinary countries. But if a nuclear power like the United States really wants to deal with Somalia, Chen Xin may not be able to defend it.

Therefore, as soon as the war ended, he and Gang Beng immediately prepared for Somalia's next defense plan.

The first thing Chen Xin had to think about was how to prepare for the nuclear attack of the hooligans.

For this reason, Chen Xin and Gang Jun specially built a large-scale ground-based laser weapon station in the northwestern suburbs of Somalia. The weapon station consists of four large laser cannons with a power of [-] megawatts and ten medium-sized laser cannons with a power of [-] megawatts. composition.

The large laser cannon has an effective range of 20 kilometers. During the first test firing, it vaporized a satellite fragment in low-Earth orbit in [-] milliseconds.

The effective range of the medium-sized laser cannon is [-] kilometers, and it is mainly used to meet the air defense in the atmosphere.

The combination of the two laser cannons can shoot down any aircraft that enters Somali airspace.

In addition, Gangbi also built four fortress-type electromagnetic railguns. This electromagnetic railgun has a caliber of 155 mm, a body made of tungsten-iron alloy, a weight of 23 kg, and a power of 1000 to [-] megawatts.Rate of fire is two rounds per minute.

After being accelerated by a 150-meter-long orbit, the muzzle velocity of the electromagnetic railgun projectile reached Mach 8.3, and the effective range was 1550 kilometers. Chen Xin once simulated it on a supercomputer.Just one such running bomb can completely destroy a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier.

If anyone who doesn't have a good eye wants to send troops from the navy, land and air forces to land in Somalia, the electromagnetic railgun can teach them how to behave in minutes.

Of course, these weapons are powerful.The power required is also extremely terrifying, and even a 500 million-kilowatt fusion reactor unit cannot afford it.

In order to ensure the operation of these weapons, Chen Xin had to use Jinlong batteries to build a huge power reserve for emergencies.

This is also one of the reasons why Chen Xinhui readily agreed to such an unbelievable condition proposed by the US government.

General Chang Siwei, chief of staff of the PLA, and Andrei Soratrovsky, Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, left the conference room full of thoughts. No matter what the negative result is, it may not be a good thing for China and Russia.

Early the next morning.Kerry, Chang Siwei and Andrei Solatrovski left Mogadishu by special plane.

Before leaving, Chang Siwei didn't say much, but told Chen Xin that if the war really came, the Chinese government might evacuate the overseas Chinese.

Of course, Chen Xin couldn't deny it.

In the following three days, the international situation was calm, and China was still intensively preparing for the Eurasian New Energy Investment Bank member summit summit.Public opinion in the United States still focuses most of its attention on controllable nuclear fusion. The Biden administration did not immediately announce to the outside world the "culprit" who killed President Okankai. The only change is that the US military has begun to integrate forces. The main warships of the Atlantic Fleet are quietly gathering, the Army has also canceled its vacation, and the US military bases deployed around the world have begun to enter a state of combat readiness.

Apart from ordering Yusuf to speed up the training of the army and build fortifications along the coast, Chen Xin did not do anything other than these actions, which made China, the United States and Russia, which are closely following Somalia, a little puzzled.

March 2013, 3.Evening local time in Somalia.The sky is dim, and a new moon hangs high in the sky. In the distance, you can see the blue sky and the clouds dyed red by the setting sun.

Mogadishu International Airport is heavily guarded, and the Aerospace Plane Dream slowly rolled out of the hangar.Enter the end of the runway.

The appearance of the refitted Dream has not changed much, but the interior of the spacecraft has long been completely changed.

The cargo hold of the spacecraft is filled with various materials prepared for accidents.

For secondary civilizations.Deep space exploration is a real big adventure. Even if Chen Xin has the backing of such a heaven-defying existence as Gangjun, he must make sufficient preparations.

Chen Xin was sitting in the driver's seat, with two mimic robots on either side of him.

He looked a little nervous.

Although the Americans had already completed the feat of landing on the moon decades ago, the Apollo program at that time could be said to have gathered the national power of superpowers, such as Saturn, which was able to send the Apollo spacecraft up to 46.7 tons to the moon. No. 5 carrier rocket, so far no carrier rocket in the world can reach and exceed the thrust of Saturn V.Not to mention the Apollo spacecraft, it can be said to be the crystallization of the most advanced science and technology in the world at that time.

However, because of this, the US government was overwhelmed by the huge cost of the Apollo program, and they could not find a way to enter the Kahn spacecraft. In the end, the US government had to reluctantly terminate this project, the largest in human history. scientific engineering.

The Apollo program can be said to be the last space program that carried the glorious dream of mankind. Since then, human space activities have become more and more utilitarian and purposeful.

The cost-effectiveness ratio has become the first element to be considered in all space programs, which is why no country has developed a super project like the Apollo program in the following decades.

Therefore, this moon landing operation of the Bureau of War and Abuse can be regarded as the second moon landing operation in human history.

Unlike the Apollo program, which was extremely rough in the United States, the "Dream" lunar landing spacecraft was much higher than the Apollo spacecraft in terms of reliability and economy. Chen Xin believed that the achievements he could achieve would also Much bigger than the American plan.

Chen Xin took a deep breath and began to issue orders in an orderly manner!

"The fuel tank pressure valve is open!"

"The fuel tank pressure valve is open!"

"The main engine is warming up!"

"The main engine is warming up!"

"Enter the system self-test program!"

"Enter the system self-test program!"

"The spaceship is in good condition and can be ignited!"

"Ten, nine, eight, seven...three, two, one, zero..."

"Engine fire!"

"Engine fire!"

The fuselage of the Dream suddenly vibrated, and Chen Xin opened the fuel valve to the maximum.The engine tailpipe emits a light blue light.

Soon, the brake valve was closed, and Dream began to slide along the runway at high speed like an arrow leaving the string.

on the tarmac on either side of the runway.The unmanned fighter jets lined up neatly, as if they were seeing off Chen Xin's feat of landing on the moon.

On the laboratory building at the end of the runway, Qiao Ting was silently seeing off the "Dream".

Although Chen Xin didn't tell her what the reason for dispatching the "Dream" was.But Qiao Ting could faintly feel that the flight mission of Dreamer this time might be a bit different.

The height of Dream gradually increased, ten kilometers, twenty kilometers, fifty kilometers, one hundred kilometers...

In Chen Xin's eyes, the sky also gradually became deeper, from light blue at first, then to sapphire blue, then to dark blue, and finally, the Dream merged into the pitch-black night.

Because there is no propellant propulsion engine and solar sail.Dream does not need to circle the earth continuously like ordinary lunar probes, increase the apogee, and then use the gravitational effect to enter the earth-moon transfer orbit step by step.

"Dream adjusts its posture."

"Dream adjusts its posture."

"Shut down the takeoff engine!"

"Shut down the takeoff engine!"

"The main engine starts!"

"The main engine starts!"

"The solar sail is ready to open!"

"The solar sail is ready to open!"

Chen Xin only felt the spaceship shake slightly, and a solar sail with a diameter of 2.5 kilometers and an area of ​​5 square kilometers opened silently.Form a huge film of light in the night sky!

The speed of the spacecraft suddenly accelerated. From takeoff to low-earth orbit, Dreamer only circled the earth for less than half a circle. Then, driven by the propellant-free engine and the solar sail, Dreamer suddenly turned a corner in space and went straight towards the earth. Fly towards the moon.

Chen Xin took off his seat belt, yawned, and said, "Gangbi, I'll go to sleep first, and wake me up when I'm in lunar orbit and ready to land!"

"Don't worry, old bean!"

From the earth to the moon.General aircraft.It will take about four to five days, and there will be many orbit changes in the middle.

Counting the acceleration and deceleration, the Dreamer can cross the distance of 30 kilometers in less than six hours.

When Chen Xin woke up again.The spacecraft has already entered the lunar elliptical orbit of 100 kilometers away from the moon and 30 kilometers away from the moon.

At this time, the earth has become half a sapphire-like planet.Quietly embedded in the dark space.

Below the spaceship is a pock-marked beauty surrounded by potholes and craters.

Chen Xin hurriedly ate a space meal, then returned to the main driver's seat and sat down.

Next, he will gradually lower the altitude of the spaceship under the guidance of the steel 镚.

The surface acceleration of the moon is only one-sixth of that of the earth. The thrust reverser engine of the Dream spacecraft stopped steadily at a distance of 15 kilometers from the surface of the moon without using too much force.

Due to the strong effect of the earth's tidal gravitational force, the moon can always only face the earth from one side. Therefore, the back of the moon is a mysterious area that is always out of sight for human beings.

But this does not mean that the back of the moon is a cold and dark area. Like the other side we can see, it is also surrounded by craters and also illuminated by sunlight.

The area Chen Xin chose to land on was less than 3000 meters away from the crater where the Kahn spacecraft crashed, and it was the only flat land nearby.

At this time, it is the day of the moon, and the dazzling sunlight casts a dazzling light spot on the moon.

As the Dream spacecraft gradually descended, the thrust of the reverse thrust engine also gradually increased.

十千米、7000米、3000米、1000米、500米、300米……

In the end, the Dreamer hovered 15 meters above the lunar surface.

The high-temperature gas ejected from the thrust reverser engine raised a large cloud of dust below.

"Landing gear on!"

As Dream began to descend gradually at a speed of 0.1 meters per second.

boom--

Chen Xin felt the spaceship shake slightly, and his nervousness finally eased a little.

"It feels good to be down-to-earth!"

Chen Xin couldn't help laughing, got up from the driver's seat, and with the help of two mimic robots, put on a thick space suit.

The gravity on the moon is very small, so Chen Xin can jump out of the distance without much effort.

This made Chen Xin very uncomfortable with walking, so he had to imitate Armstrong's moon walk and walk forward.

After finally reaching the rear equipment cabin, Chen Xin entered a fully enclosed lunar rover, started the engine, and said to Gang Yan, "Gang Yan, let's start!"

The door of the equipment compartment opened slowly, then descended, forming an oblique angle with the lunar surface.

The lunar rover vibrated slightly, and under Chen Xin's control, it slowly left the equipment cabin.

Chen Xin drove the lunar rover about ten meters away from the Dream spacecraft before stopping.

He took a deep breath, opened the hatch of the rover, manipulated his body awkwardly, and got off the rover.

When Chen Xin stepped forward and looked at his first footprint on the red lunar soil, an inexplicable feeling rose spontaneously.

I don’t know what kind of mood Armstrong felt when he said “This is one small step for me, but one giant leap for mankind”!

Chen Xin shook his head, driving away all kinds of distracting thoughts that arose in his mind.

According to scientists' calculations, the moon was born at the same time as the earth, about 46 billion years ago.After the moon was born, the molten surface quickly formed a thin crust.As heavier elements gather and sink toward the center of the moon, the crust gradually thickens.The chemically differentiated crust was bombarded by large meteorites or comets, forming huge basins on the lunar surface.Over time, the bombardment of the lunar surface by alien celestial material gradually decreased.The many large basins filled by lava flows formed what is now the mare.The slow and uninterrupted erosion of the lunar surface by small rocks has continued to this day.

There is no doubt that this is an unusually cold world.

There is no atmosphere on the moon, and it is in a high vacuum state. Because of this, the sunlight is not scattered, which is extremely dazzling. Although it is daytime, the sky is pitch black, giving people a very depressing feeling.

There is no water on the moon, even in the analysis of rocks on the moon, no water was found.The surrounding area is desolate and lifeless. Since there is no atmosphere, the lunar surface is directly exposed to space, causing the temperature of the lunar surface to change drastically.When the daytime is the hottest, the temperature on the lunar surface can reach 127°C, and when the night is the coldest, the temperature can drop to -183°C.

Although Chen Xin had already learned about the environment of the moon from texts and pictures countless times, it was the first time he was exposed to such an environment that was comparable to hell for life, and he still felt a little uneasy. (to be continued~^~)
