Chapter 481 Moon Landing (1)(1/3)
Low Earth orbit.
Ross flew around the ground for an hour at a speed of 8,000 meters per second.
Gamorin, who was highly nervous, dared to breathe after seeing a sunrise and sunset around the earth for a whole round trip.
"Two brothers, have a cup of coffee and relax."
Swick, who was standing beside him, had already taken off his restraints and sat comfortably on the seat.
Seeing that Gamorin was overly nervous, he smiled and handed him a pack of frozen coffee.
Eat and drink in space, all the food is wrapped in sealed bags.
Because of no gravity, if exposed to the air, it will drift everywhere.
When the astronauts eat, they just need to unscrew the upper opening of the sealed bag and put it in their mouths to suck.
Most of them are liquid foods, which are more convenient to eat and store.
Gamorin took the coffee handed over by Swick and gave it to Shen Lang.
"Shen Lang, drink some water. It's a pity that there is a monitor watching it. You can't invite a bag of vodka."
"But I promise you that the moon landing mission is completed and I will give you a drink when you return."
Good man Gamorin makes a rare joke.
Shen Lang had just finished watching the colorful sunrise. After hearing Gamorin's voice, he took it with a smile, unscrewed the seal and stuffed it into his mouth.
The taste is really good.
to be honest.
In the zero gravity of space, everything is so fresh.
This feeling is completely different from the feeling of weightlessness. If the whole person is not bound, he can float in the air for a long time.
This strange experience was unprecedented for him.
Unlike Gamorine and Swick, these two guys are old men who have entered space.
For Shen Lang, it was like a baby talking for the first time and walking with his feet for the first time.
Although I have trained all on the ground, I can only feel magical when I am in a weightless environment.
"How is it? Brother Shen, it's fun! Say hello to Major Xuefu?"
Seeing that Shen Lang seemed to adapt to everything, Swick pointed to the large screen on the operator, where there was a command center screen.
Everyone was watching the three of them, observing every move in the command cabin.
Shen Lang picked up the intercom.
"Shen Lang, how do you feel?"
Seeing Shen Lang looking at the big screen and showing his face, Lu Xuefu smiled and greeted her.
"not bad!"
Shen Lang smiled shyly, and the first time he became a little more restrained.
Lu Xuefu blinked after seeing it and thought to herself that she finally saw you shyly.
I have completely changed the environment and I am not even on the earth anymore. I don’t believe that you still look calm.
"Haha, you are so beautiful, I don't know how happy you are. You are the 598th human to enter space."
Lu Xuefu was joking like a good friend.
Shen Lang Xiaoxiao didn't say anything.
If so many people hadn't watched, Gaoxiao would have taken Lu Xuefu to the car once.
"Okay, Major Snowf, time is precious, we will reiterate the plan."
The commander-in-chief on the side was not interested in seeing her and Shen Lang teasing her, so he took the communicator directly.
"Gamorin, Swick, Shen Lang, take advantage of the time of flying around the ground, let's repeat the mission again."
The three of them nodded.
"When flying around the ground to the predetermined tangent point, the pusher on Ross will ignite again, pushing the command module into the near-moon orbit, where the lunar module is already waiting."
"Shen Lang! You are responsible for connecting with the lunar module!"
"Then, Swick controls the command module, Gamorin, Shen Lang, as landing personnel, after connecting with the lunar module, you will be moved in and wear an extra-cabin spacesuit and start landing operations at the right time."
"After successfully landing, Gamorin was responsible for leading Shen Lang to find the probe rover we stayed on the moon and take it to the predetermined location."
"After finding the mission target, return to the lunar module immediately, then start the return capsule to leave the program, meet with Swick in the near-moon orbit, and finally return to Earth!"
"All the above procedures must not exceed 36 hours, otherwise unpredictable problems will arise due to fuel exhaustion and other reasons. Do you all understand?"
The three said there was no problem.
These processes are things that have been simulated and deduced on the ground for a long time, and it is purely due to the program when purifying them.
The commander-in-chief felt much more relieved when he saw the three of them nodded and received it.
As long as the spacecraft successfully enters the near-moon orbit and successfully connects with the lunar module, the moon landing plan will be mostly successful.
"Okay, the astronauts rest for half an hour, and then start the orbital change program after half an hour, ready to enter the near-month orbit!"
As soon as the commander-in-chief finished speaking, the staff on the ground became busy again.
Lu Xuefu was interested in saying something to Shen Lang, but the communication was closed by the commander-in-chief.
"Major Xuefu, please pay attention to your personal feelings."
The commander-in-chief is not very polite to the confidential secretary around this boss.
He couldn't understand how this girl was so fond of Shen Lang.
Lu Xuefu curled her lips.
"Okay, Commander-in-Chief! Since the launch has been successfully launched, can you start the live broadcast?"
"live streaming?"
The commander-in-chief stood there, "What's the live broadcast?"
Lu Xuefu pointed at the three people on the screen.
"Of course, it's live broadcast of the entire moon landing process, Commander-in-Chief! Have you forgotten? The boss said that as long as the rocket is launched successfully, the global moon landing broadcast can be started."
"Did it start so early..."
The commander-in-chief smiled bitterly, and the boss did say such a thing.
After the rocket was successfully launched, the Stars and Stripes no longer had the ability to interfere with their operations.
Global live broadcast mode will be enabled at that time.
Starting the live broadcast of the moon landing can not only strengthen the prestige of the country, but also take this opportunity to put more psychological pressure on the Stars and Stripes.
Once the other party fails to break down and starts seeking negotiations, it will already lose its position strategically.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. These methods are things that those in power are considering.
These researchers only need to be responsible for the execution.
But……
The commander-in-chief felt helpless.
I don’t know if I can succeed in the moon landing!
If the moon landing live broadcast started so early, if it fails, it will be embarrassing that the entire Grizzly Bear will be.
It was him who took the blame in the end.
Only those who are engaged in aerospace know that whether this moon landing is successful depends on three unpredictable situations.
Compared with these three situations, the success of the rocket launch is really unfavorable.
Which three unpredictable situations?
1: Can the lunar module land smoothly?
Although the moon's atmosphere is much thinner than the Earth, the technology required is much smaller.
It is the first time that the Grizzly Kingdom has done something. If any problem occurs, the plane will be destroyed and the people will be killed on the spot.
What's more, the lunar module is an old object from decades ago, and no one can guarantee that it will be foolproof.
If fireworks were set off under the gaze of the crowd, everything would be over.
2: Whether the return capsule can be successfully started.
This is different from ignition on Earth. Everything depends on the experimental data taken for granted. If Shen Lang and his team cannot successfully lift the capsule into the air after completing the mission, or even an explosion occurs during the flight, everything will be useless.
In front of everyone, two living people couldn't come back. What do you think should you do?
Can the specified task be completed within 3:36 hours?
To be continued...
