Is it reasonable that rabbits live in holes?It makes sense!

According to preliminary estimates, the huge space in this cave can accommodate 100 million people to work and live here, which is a very ideal place to build a base on the moon.

Artificial light sources and hydroponic facilities can build this place into a huge underground farm to provide enough food for the base, and the energy is provided by controllable nuclear fusion.

With energy and food, what is left to rely on is the spirit of Yugong Yishan, who is best at "farming".

In the next hundred years, Rabbit will start to transform from the top of the "Marius Hills Melt", day after day, year after year, generation after generation, and gradually transform the entire cave into a human base on the moon, and One of the most important bases for the future development of the entire solar system.

Chapter 14 Lunar Expedition

In the icy void, Shiratori flew towards the moon silently.

The short 38W kilometers between the earth and the moon, in order to ensure safety, considering the endurance of scientific researchers, the acceleration phase of Shiratori is 48 hours.

Within 48 hours, the nuclear-powered working fluid engine continued to inject working fluid to accelerate Shiratori gently.

After Shiratori gained enough speed, the working medium engine was shut down and entered the coasting stage, which took two days.

The last is the deceleration stage. The nozzle of Shiratori’s attitude will continuously eject the working fluid within 72 hours, and decelerate gently. When the speed reaches the range that the human body can bear, it will fly to the Marius Hills for space exploration and research. Geological investigation.

The scientific expedition lasts for two weeks, and in the remaining week, Shiratori will return to Tiangong with precious data for rest, and then return to the ground base of CNSC.

For this scientific expedition, Shiratori's cabin carried materials that could allow scientific expedition personnel to survive in outer space for 50 days, and the remaining 20 days were used as emergency food. In case of accident, CNSC will organize other numbers of Shiratori to carry out space rescue.

Wherever you are, we will bring you home~

Whoops... The door of the cockpit opened, the captain looked back warily, and nodded after realizing that it was the crew member who came to take over.

"Captain, it's time to take over..."

"it is good..."

The captain unfastened his seat belt, got up to get out of the way, and after a brief handover with the two crew members who took over, the captain and another crew member left the cab.

There were six crew members, one captain, two co-pilots, and three assistants.

Six people are divided into three groups to perform duty, each group is eight hours, one pilot/co-pilot and one assistant.

In Shiratori, the crew and scientific researchers will not have too much contact unless necessary. Although some of the blockbusters of Yingjiang are a bit nonsense, a little bit of vigilance is also responsible for everyone's life.

The psychological state of scientific research personnel is not comparable to that of crew members who have undergone long-term training, and their psychological quality is that of astronauts.

In the worst case, the vicinity of the cockpit is strictly forbidden for scientific researchers with insufficient grades to approach... However, it is only a month, and ordinary people can withstand the claustrophobic life in a small environment, not to mention the scientific researchers who are busy tidying up. Data, basically, will not go wrong.

The taking over co-pilot and his assistant sat in their seats.

Shiratori's autopilot AI is very mature, and on duty is just sitting in the cockpit, checking the instruments and data of Shiratori, and fixing possible errors in the AI.

After confirming that everything was normal, the co-pilot and captain began to be on duty.

In the cabin, Academician Wang and the scientific research team consist of 12 people, and they are drawing up a space scientific research plan within [-] days.

In Ganaku, there are two manned lunar exploration vehicles, which look like enlarged Lynx all-terrain vehicles.

The all-terrain vehicle is powered by a superconducting battery, has excellent off-road capability, and has an excellent load-carrying capacity.

After arriving at the Marius Hills, Shiratori will look for a relatively flat area to land. During the day, the scientific research personnel will go out for scientific research operations, and at night they will return to Shiratori to rest and charge the Shanmeow lunar rover.

"Academician Wang, there is a relatively flat area near the Marius Hills, which is very suitable for building an unmanned transportation hub system..."

Among the scientific expedition team, professors of geology gave their opinions.

"...if the geology can hold it."

Before going through the investigation, I just said that it is suitable. Although there are some data from lunar exploration satellites in foreign databases, those data are not 100% reliable. Only a personal inspection can give a definite answer.

"...If an unmanned hub system is built here, it can be connected to Guanghan No. 3 through elevators, and the sealed helium [-] can be packed and transported to the hub station through a conveyor belt, and then transported to Tiangong through the unmanned hub system. ..”

The so-called unmanned hub system is a large cargo air port. After the materials are delivered to the air port, the logistics system will distribute them to the docked cargo drones.

After the cargo drone is loaded with materials, it will automatically take off and fly towards Tiangong-3, transporting the helium [-] from the moon to the unmanned spaceport dedicated to Tiangong, and then return to the moon after unloading and recharging.

As a mature drone, it's time to learn how to load and unload by yourself~

Then, these goods will be sent to the track elevator, which will be transported to the ground by the track elevator.

However, the uninhabited port of Tiangong has not yet been established, and the orbital elevator project has also been approved, and the site selection and integration plan is underway. The three will start construction at the same time.

However, the priority of Guanghan and Tiangong is higher than that of the orbital elevator. As long as helium 3 can be transported to Tiangong, the rabbit has countless ways to send helium 3 to the ground.

The shape of the "Marius Hills" is a bit like an inverted funnel. It has to be said that this shape with a narrow top and a thick bottom is very suitable for building an underground base. Nature has already "sealed" the rabbit, which can save a lot of manpower and material resources.

During the transformation, only some key parts need to be reinforced, and the rabbit also has to marvel at the ingenious workmanship of nature.

Amidst the discussion, the time passed by every minute and every second, and the lights in the cabin were switched to night lights. The researchers put down the materials in their hands and gathered in the center of the cabin.

Academician Wang was in front, and other researchers were behind, and then the BGM of "Tai Chi" sounded in the cabin.

As a traditional project of the rabbit, even if you go to space, you have to do a set of Tai Chi.

After exercising their bodies, the scientific researchers entered the egg-shaped sleeping bags in the cabin after simple washing.

The lights in the living area gradually dimmed, and soon there was the sound of even breathing.

After everyone rested, Shiratori's AI sent the data back to Tiangong within 24 hours.

Life in space is so boring. Although the area is a bit narrow, as long as there are more than 3 people, there will be a D committee. These backbones try their best to activate their emotions.

The 2 days of coasting quickly passed, and Shiratori entered the deceleration section.

As an important stage, the four members of the crew are on duty and ready to go.

The captain first checked the flight data and instruments, and after confirming that all the data were normal, he turned on the in-flight broadcast.

"Attention everyone, after 10 minutes, the unit will slow down...repeat..."

The members of the plane quickly sat on the chairs and fastened their seat belts, adjusted the angle of the seats so that their posture changed to lying on the chairs.

Then there was a long wait. When the countdown reached zero, the attitude nozzles on the bow of the Shiratori aircraft and the front of the wings ejected the working fluid forward.

Puff puff puff... The working medium is ejected slowly, and the speed of the white bird is slowly reduced. The whole process will last for 72 hours.

Chapter 15 One Small Step For A Rabbit

In Shiratori's cab, the crew has been able to clearly see the "close at hand" moon.

The reason why the deceleration takes the longest time is because during the deceleration section, Shiratori changed the attitude of the body from head to the moon to tail to the moon in 24 hours.

Immediately, the main engine was started, and the working gas was continuously ejected toward the rear, reducing the speed of Shiratori to the point where it could turn... After all, the body turns 180 degrees at high speed, and you will shake your brains evenly.

Although the moon cannot be seen visually, AI shows that after a week of space voyage, they finally arrived at the moon.

Stretch out your hand and press the button to start the engine, and immediately during the space voyage, the offline pod modules came online one by one...

Beep beep... One by one offline modules go online, the system enters self-test, and quickly changes from yellow to green.

After confirming that the entire system is normal, the captain picked up the microphone and broadcast in the ship: "Attention all personnel, this aircraft will change its attitude, please fasten your seat belt immediately...repeat...fasten your seat belt immediately... .”

After broadcasting three times, after everyone fastened their seat belts, the captain looked at the co-pilot and assistants beside him, his eyes slightly excited.

So far, there are only a few countries that can send the lunar rover to the moon, not to mention the manned landing on the moon. This scientific expedition is destined to be recorded in history, because this is the first time in human history on such a large scale The month-to-month scientific expedition.

Just like the moment when Eagle Sauce planted the national flag on the moon for the first time represented all mankind, at this moment the rabbit also represents all mankind.

"3...2...1...turn!"

The captain released the AI ​​autopilot, put his hands on the sidestick, and looked at the head-up display, which showed the flight path given by the AI.

Through the fly-by-wire system of the side stick, the attitude of the aircraft is slightly adjusted, and the various attitude nozzles on the fuselage cooperate with each other, and the White Bird fuselage is turned 180 degrees again, facing the direction of the moon.

Immediately, the crew saw the only satellite of the earth, which is also the "Wangshu" that rabbits have been looking up to since ancient times, but the moon seen from space is not as beautiful as seen from the earth.

After confirming that the attitude of the airframe is completely correct, the captain took a look at the state of the airframe, and after repeatedly confirming that it was normal, he pushed the throttle valve and injected a large amount of propellant into the thermonuclear engine to increase the speed of Shiratori, which was already slow. .

Everyone could feel the push back, and under the gravitational attraction of the moon, Shiratori accelerated further.

In the cabin, the scientific research personnel could not help but clenched their fists slightly as they watched the image of the moon sent back through the light spot probe.

The moon is the fifth largest satellite in the solar system, and its average radius is about 1737.10 kilometers, which is equivalent to 0.273 times the radius of the earth.The mass is close to 7.342×1022 kilograms, equivalent to 0.0123 times that of the earth.

The surface of the moon is covered with impact craters formed by the impact of small celestial bodies.The average distance between the moon and the earth is about 38.44 kilometers, which is about 30 times the diameter of the earth.

"We have arrived..." Academician Wang said with bright eyes. He has studied the moon on the ground all his life, but he never thought that he could actually go to the moon... The Prime Minister will be very happy when he knows.

Shiratori flew towards the destination of the scientific expedition, the Marius Hills, but as it flew, the airborne electronic equipment soon received the signal from the "Moon Rabbit", and the lunar rover sent a message to Shiratori .

"Welcome to the Moon..."

After six hours of sailing, Shiratori flew over the destination. The captain first flew around the landing field for a week, visually observed the terrain of the landing field, and after confirming that there were no geological influences around that could affect the landing, he went inside the plane. The broadcast said:

"This aircraft is about to land, please fasten your seat belts, repeat..."

After broadcasting three times, the captain activated the guided engine system on the White Bird, entered low-power operation, and shielded the influence of the moon's gravity on the White Bird. With the cooperation of the external auxiliary attitude nozzle, Shiratori descended towards the ground like a helicopter.

Puff puff puff... A large amount of propellant was ejected from the posture nozzle, and the white bird fell lightly like a feather.

Height 100m...

Height 50m...

Height 10m...

Height 1m...

When the landing gear touched the moon, everyone could feel a slight vibration from the fuselage.

After the captain took a long breath, he announced in the plane: "We have arrived..."

The co-pilot sent the information of Shiratori's safe arrival to Tiangong's direction through the high-power airborne radio, and Tiangong would be very happy to receive the news.

Immediately, there were cheers from the scientific researchers in the plane, and they will conduct scientific research on the moon next!

Not all scientific research personnel will go to the moon. Only six people will be dispatched in the first scientific expedition, and the remaining six will receive data in the cabin; the other six will go up in the second scientific expedition until everyone adapts to the lunar surface. After the environment, all will be dispatched for the third time.

Since there is no atmosphere on the moon, and the heat capacity and thermal conductivity of the lunar surface material are very low, the temperature difference between day and night on the surface of the moon is very large.During the day, the surface temperature of the moon is as high as 127°C where the sun shines vertically; at night, its surface temperature can drop to -183°C.

On the front of the moon, there are a large number of huge impact craters filled by dark volcanic basalt lava flows, forming a vast plain called "maria". In fact, there is not a drop of water in the "maria".Bright, ancient anorthosite plateaus and prominent impact craters are interspersed between the outer mare and the mare.

It is the brightest object in the sky after the Sun, and although it appears very bright white, its surface is actually dark, with an albedo only slightly higher than old asphalt.

Shiratori chose the moon landing time, and the lunar surface temperature is relatively "moderate".

The crew confirmed Shiratori's status again, and after confirming that everything was normal, they broadcast again: "Please get ready to go to the moon!"

At this time, the six scientific researchers who landed on the moon for the first time had ruddy complexions and were extremely excited, but they were still trying to adjust their emotions to avoid affecting the consumption of oxygen due to the disordered breathing rhythm.

The scientific researchers who changed into space suits walked to the airtight cabin inside the white bird, and they will log in to the surface of the moon through the secondary airtight system.

This is also thanks to the fact that on the ground, the rabbit simulates the gravity of the moon through the guidance system, so that all the moon landing personnel have adapted to the gravity of the moon in advance.

"Launching the Lunar Rover..."

The garage at the tail of the white bird slowly opened to reveal the lunar lander inside, and then the robotic arm dropped the lunar lander from the cabin.

Chapter 16 One Bigger Step for Humanity

Six scientific researchers entered the first-level airtight cabin, put on their space suits, and checked each other in groups of two.

After confirming that there is no problem with the other party's spacesuit, he made a ready gesture to the camera in the room.

The captain of Shiratori glanced at all the spacesuits that were online on the panel, and carefully checked the physiological data of the scientific research personnel. After confirming that there was no problem, he pressed the button.

In the whirring sound, the air in the airtight cabin was evacuated, and the cabin entered a vacuum state.

After the air was completely evacuated, the captain picked up the microphone and said, "Get ready to enter the secondary airlock..."

After speaking, he pressed the button of the second-level airtight cabin, and the door opened.

The scientific research personnel entered the second-level airtight chamber one after another, and immediately the door of the first-level airtight chamber was sealed.

In the second-level airtight cabin, the researchers made the final preparations. First, they put some practical gadgets and medical kits on their bodies, and then moved their bodies to fine-tune the air conditioner in the spacesuits.

AI balances the pressure inside and outside the cabin... After the pressure is balanced, the warning lights on both sides of the secondary airlock will flash, indicating that the door is about to open.

The first thing that catches the eye is the lifeless soil on the surface of the moon, where there is no breath of life.

Academician Wang took the lead, walked out of the hatch carrying the national flag, and walked to the ground along the hatch at the tail of the vehicle.

The moment Academician Wang stepped on the lunar surface, he waved the national flag with both hands high.

Academician Wang's excited and choked cheers sounded in the communication channel.
