Vol 2 Chapter 1688: Moon travel route

It's not necessarily true. After finally sending the lunar rover to the moon, it is better to be cautious. Otherwise, if it is knocked down and broken, or turned over, wouldn't it mean that so much money and so much hard work will be in vain.

   Don’t forget the mission of this car. If you really want to move a few centimeters to several centimeters like other detectors, wouldn’t it take hundreds of years to complete tens of thousands of kilometers?

  Okay, stop arguing, let's wait and see.

   Compared with the lively network and the coverage of the media, the Xinyuehu Integrated Aerospace Command and Control Center is very calm and relaxed.

   After completing the landing mission, almost half of the scientific research and technical personnel of the entire Xinyuehu Integrated Aerospace Command and Control Center have been arranged to rest. The rest will generally not only be on duty for the daily operation of each system, but will also cooperate with the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover related tasks.

   "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover has been fully deployed, and the next step is related testing work. Only after all systems of the test vehicle are normal, can the next related detection tasks begin.

   The two robotic arms, one large and one small, have been deployed, and the high-definition camera has been activated, and many high-definition photos have been sent back to them. Because bandwidth is more precious, the transmitted photos are all black and white, and the computer needs to be dyed later. In fact, all the photos taken by the extraterrestrial detectors are black and white. The reason why the photos we see are in color are all post-processed.

   Although the photo is black and white, it is very clear under the high-definition camera. After zooming in, you can even see the grains of sand on the ground.

   Several scientists in the hall were very excited about these photos. They zoomed in and studied them one by one, and showed surprises from time to time.

   As for Wu Hao, they were surrounded by Zhang Jun Yang Fan and Zhou Xiang Ming Shi Zhaoping in front of a larger high-definition screen, bending over to the map displayed on the large screen to discuss carefully.

"According to our exploration plan, the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover will be tested first. After the tests are completed, we will take samples and analyze first, and install lunar soil and geological detectors. This month We have prepared one hundred soil and geological detectors, which will be used in the detection mission of lunar soil and lunar geological lunar earthquakes in the relevant area.

   After completing the relevant exploration missions, the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover will head northeast all the way to its first check-in destination, the Manlius crater. Zhou Xiangming pointed at the high-definition moon satellite map on the big screen and introduced it to everyone.

Looking at the route of the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover planned on the map and the first check-in destination Manilius crater, Wu Hao asked, "What's so special about this crater? Yes, you need to go around and check in."

Zhou Xiangming nodded and introduced with a smile: "This Manilius crater is quite special. It can be regarded as a relatively young crater on the moon. Although it is relatively small, we suspect that there are some remnants of asteroid impact in this crater. Star debris, which may include some unknown elements and information about the formation of the solar system.

And more importantly, we suspect that the asteroid that hit this Mannilius crater contains a lot of ice, so it formed such a regular and relatively small crater, and the crater is different from other meteorites. The pit has obvious characteristics of ice.

   So we hope to be able to drive the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover into this crater and be able to find surface ice. "

   At this point, Zhou Xiangming changed his tone and said: "Of course, this is just a guess, and the specifics have yet to be explored on the spot."

After seeing everyone nodding their heads to express their understanding, Zhou Xiangming then gestured to the map and introduced: "Next, the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover will travel west along the edge of the sea of ​​Qi, passing Siginus. The moon breathes, and then travel all the way to the plateau between Mount Woolf and Porter Crater, from this gap into Shuze. Then explore all the way, and drive to the second famous opening, which is the landmark on the moon. One, Copernicus crater.

   After exploring the Copernicus crater, the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover will go all the way south, gradually approaching the South Pole, looking for the distribution map of surface ice resources.

  Of course, during this period, we will also focus on detecting the distribution of lunar mineral resources, especially the distribution of helium-3 resources. And look for suitable locations for the establishment of advanced lunar scientific research stations and lunar cities. "

Wu Hao and others looked at the red dotted line planned on the satellite map of the moon, and nodded their heads. There is nothing wrong with this route. It is just such a long journey and such a complicated lunar environment. Everyone can't help but worry about this "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover.

It may be that you noticed the look on Wu Hao and their faces~www.readwn.com~Zhou Xiangming comforted everyone: "To be honest, this is our first lunar probe. To be honest, you don’t have much experience, it’s all on your own. It came out. So what is the performance of this "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover, and how the specific performance is, we really don't know this now, and we can only know it after it is actually carried out.

   Because of this, we can’t estimate or guarantee its working life. But in this regard, we have made sufficient preparations and pre-plans, as long as it is not a fatal problem, we can solve it. As for the key components and equipment, we have carried out key protection and double backup. Please rest assured that there will be no problems. "

   Then, what do you think is the biggest difficulty or crisis facing this car? Yang Fan asked Zhou Xiangming a more professional question.

Zhou Xiangming thought for a while, then said to Wu Hao: "It's still the harsh environment on the moon. Our "Wangshu" intelligent lunar patrol rover travels very fast, up to ten kilometers per hour. This speed can already be said to be the fastest among all extraterrestrial detectors at present, and I believe that it will not come out faster than it for many years in the future.

   Such a fast travel speed, although the whole journey is handed over to the on-board intelligent control system for autonomous driving. However, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be some special circumstances, such as a vehicle accidentally hitting a sharp rock, or accidentally falling into the lunar soil dust layer, and so on.

   Then there is that the moon has no atmosphere and directly faces all kinds of cosmic radiation, which will also cause a series of problems. "
