Military Technology

"It doesn't matter whether it's fast or slow. The requirements for the engine and the overall control are very strict. If the deceleration is too slow, and the speed of the lander is too fast, then the landing speed will increase. Although the gravitational force on the moon is relatively low, the lander It can't withstand the impact of too high a speed. Our neighbor, the lunar surface probe of a big country in South Asia, failed like this."

Hahaha…

Hearing Wu Hao's words, the leaders present all laughed. Indeed, the spirit of the third brother's repeated defeats has infected many people, at least it has made many people feel happy.

Why are the detectors of the third brother's house so easy to fail? What is the reason? A leader couldn't help being curious.

Hearing this leader's inquiry, other leaders also looked at him, and everyone wanted to know why the Sanguo family couldn't do it.

Hearing this, Wu Hao said with a smile: "In fact, it has made great progress, but it is still a little bit behind in some core technologies.

Especially the vector engine and the overall control were a bit poor, which led to the final failure. "

"Is this difficult?" A leader couldn't help asking.

It's hard, at least for the third brother. Wu Hao nodded and replied: "First of all, although the third brother launches several satellites every year, they lack good rockets, especially high-thrust rockets.

In fact, the take-off quality of the third brother's rockets is not low, they are all several thousand tons, but the carrying capacity is pitifully small, only a few tons, and the good ones are only a dozen tons, which is very poor.

And we know that the core of rockets is the engine, so they are relatively backward in engine technology. Although in the past few years, they have been continuously learning and absorbing foreign successes, especially buying a lot of technology from Maozi and some cooperation, so their technical level in this area has improved a lot, but compared to the advanced countries The level is still a lot worse.

Let's just say that, although Maozi's aerospace technology is also very powerful, they are also very poor in this kind of extraterrestrial planet detection technology. Their own Mars probe failed several times, and the lunar probe is just like that. .

Let it teach the third brother, which is tantamount to giving tutoring to those with poor grades. What good results can there be. "

Hahaha…

Wu Hao's words directly made everyone on the scene laugh. Indeed, although what Wu Hao said was a little exaggerated, it is indeed a fact. Maozi is indeed very unfortunate in this area. How good can the apprentices he teaches be? .

Why is everyone so keen on going to the moon? Like the third brother, who is not very economical, he is so enthusiastic about lunar exploration. A leader couldn't help asking.

Hearing this question, everyone began to communicate in low voices. Indeed, this is something that many people don't quite understand.

Seeing the questioning eyes cast by several leaders, Wu Hao could only answer with a smile.

In fact, there are many reasons, such as political reasons, technological and economic reasons, aerospace development and so on. As far as the third brother is concerned, it is more of the first. To put it bluntly, it is a political need. They want to demonstrate their strength in the aerospace field through aerospace engineering or lunar exploration projects, so as to show their aerospace power and national power status.

In addition, its rulers also hope to use this to increase the cohesion of their domestic people. We all know the situation of the third brother, the level conflict is very sharp, so we need to divert everyone's attention. That's why, they keep making trouble for us.

Now many countries also regard this kind of landing on the moon and entering space as a way or tool to demonstrate their national influence. Many countries do not necessarily need to develop this, but may just want to create some movement to show their existence.

In addition, it is the actual scientific research needs or aerospace development needs.

We know that the moon is the closest planet to our earth. If we want to explore the universe, the moon is the first step that cannot be avoided. Only after climbing this step can we go up the second step, and then Climb up level by level.

Also because the moon is close to us, and the moon is a natural satellite of our earth, revolving around our earth, and it has no atmosphere, and its own gravity is too low, so it can be regarded as a stepping stone for us to explore the deep space universe, and also from the deep space. A portal from the empty universe into Earth.

Therefore, the geographical location is very important. Whoever controls the moon is tantamount to choking our earth to the throat of the deep space universe.

To change the metaphor, the moon is like a port or city that strangles the throat of several straits on our earth, such as Shijiapo, Gibraltar and so on.

This is one of the reasons why everyone is so keen on exploring the moon, and there are new scientific research stations and bases on the moon.

Speaking of this, Wu Hao glanced at the leaders sitting here, and then continued: "In the end, it is the economic reason, which is also the reason why we engage in lunar exploration and establish a scientific research station on the moon.

First of all, there are rich mineral deposits on the moon. In addition to the helium-III resources we are familiar with, there are also rich manganese, titanium, iron, copper, silver and many other rich minerals. Some lunar soil components explored by our two probes From the analysis point of view, there are still many so-called elements from the universe, so they are very valuable for mining.

With the growth of human beings on our earth, the earth's resources will eventually be consumed, so where will the resources needed by human beings come from in the future? It can only be the universe above our heads.

As the moon is the closest to our earth, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is of course the first choice for mining. Therefore, this will be a very promising Guan Guangmao market.

Of course, these may be too far away, and it will be a hundred or even two hundred years later. Then let’s talk about the closest thing, and it is also the most precious resource on the moon and the most needed resource for us humans, helium-3.

The moon probably stores more than one million tons of helium-3 resources, but how much is a ton of helium-3 in the international market now, three billion US dollars, let’s calculate how much it is. "

Hearing Wu Hao's words, everyone couldn't help counting silently, the more they counted, the more excited they became, and finally they couldn't help but communicate with each other.

"According to current scientific speculation, controllable nuclear fusion technology will mature and be commercialized in the next ten years or so. Once it is commercialized, it will require a large amount of helium-III resources. It is unrealistic to extract the supply close to the earth, and the cost is particularly high. , then there is an urgent need for helium-3 resources on the moon.

And when the time comes, we only need to ship back the helium 3 above, and then we can make a lot of money. Calculated by transporting two tons each time, we can earn five to six billion US dollars each time. The income is very considerable, and it can be said to be a very profitable business. "
