Chapter 109 Darkness
Through the radio built into the spacesuit, Zhao Huasheng heard a slightly thick male voice: "Hi, guys, hello, we're here to pick you up. Is it going smoothly along the way?"
"It went very smoothly, but the scenery on the moon was a bit boring." As an astronaut said, he quickly moved a box of unknown materials and put them on the lunar rover.
There are empty spaces loaded with lunar material specimens behind the rover, and the materials carried are just right there.
While chatting, several astronauts moved all the supplies onto the lunar rover. Then a total of five people rode on the two cars. Under the guidance of the navigation instruments, the lunar rover continued to move forward crookedly.
The moon has no magnetic field, so naturally there is no saying that it is north and south. This is eternal desolation and loneliness, and there is no iconic building or terrain. The surroundings are dark as thick as water, and even if there is something iconic, they cannot see it. But the astronauts are not worried about getting lost when they drive here. Because there are at least two satellites orbiting in the moon's sky, providing astronauts with accurate location information.
Through the glass on the space suit helmet, Zhao Huasheng can clearly see these scenery. There are high-power searchlights on the lunar rover, which can illuminate at least hundreds of meters, but no matter how far it illuminates, the scenery Zhao Huasheng sees is always desolate. Gravel and dust are the eternal tone here, and occasionally there will be a small hill or meteorite impact craters, which can bring a little change here.
As he continued to move forward, Zhao Huasheng suddenly noticed a bright spot from a distance. The bright spot was very small at first, but as the distance approached, it kept brightening. Finally, Zhao Huasheng saw its full picture.
It was a great building that was shockingly shocking. In this boundless darkness, it crawled on the ground like a giant beast, staring at it quietly. The lunar rover came to it, and a door opened quietly. The lunar rover drove in directly, and the cabin door behind him was closed. At this time, several astronauts and Zhao Huasheng left the lunar rover and moved the supplies behind another open door. After everything was done, the door was closed. After waiting for a while, Zhao Huasheng suddenly heard a squeaking sound.
If there is sound, it is proved that there is a medium such as air, otherwise the sound will not be transmitted. So Zhao Huasheng knew that after being isolated from the external environment of the moon, the place began to inflate and pressurize. With the increase of air pressure, Zhao Huasheng saw that the bulge caused by the internal pressure on the space suit also faded. After the reading on the instrument reached 100%, an astronaut said: "We can take off the space suit."
When the aerospace industry was just starting, putting on and taking off space suits was a very troublesome thing, and one person could not complete it. However, with the emergence of the outbreak of human civilization technology, space suits have become much simpler and more advanced. It no longer takes too much effort to wear or take off the space suits by a person.
Zhao Huasheng took off his space suits and saved them here, and then entered the main building part of the moon base through the corridor. It is spacious, bright, full of humanized and technological design. Apart from the discomfort caused by the changes in gravity, it is not much different from the comfortable villa on earth.
Two astronauts went to resettle the supplies, while the other two astronauts accompanied Zhao Huasheng to watch casually in the lunar base, and explained to Zhao Huasheng how to use various facilities and some precautions.
"It is a planting area. Because the multi-layer planting method is used, although the place is not large, the grain it produces is enough for two people to eat. We have left many plant seeds here, and each seed has a corresponding planting method. The temperature adjustment, humidity adjustment, watering, fertilization, harvesting, and pruning processes are all automated. When you plant plants, you only need to set the parameters of the automated planting instruments according to the data on the guidelines and manuals. They will be taken care of by the robot very well."
"This is the entertainment area. Here you can open or close the data connection channel with the earth as you wish. You can freely choose whether to synchronize data with the earth database. If you choose to synchronize, the latest music, books, movies and other things carefully selected by experts will be transmitted here."
"This is the rest area. You can choose the parameters that suit you to set the temperature, sound, height and softness of the bed. If you want to fall asleep under the starry sky, you can turn on this switch. At that time, the ceiling will become transparent and the starlight will shine here. You don't need to worry about radiation or interstellar meteorite impact. First of all, compared to a specific area, interstellar meteorite impact is a very low probability event, and even if it finally hits here, the high-intensity protective layer can properly protect your safety."
"This is the restaurant and kitchen area. The automatic cooking robot has stored 3,079 dishes. You just need to put the prepared ingredients here and it will automatically cook the dishes for you. There is no need to worry about the taste of the dishes they make. Each of their parameters has been accurately calibrated by the team of food experts and the team of cooking experts. The cooking robot's ability is no worse than any top chef on earth."
"This is the scientific research area. We are equipped with the latest and most powerful computers and the most precise observation equipment. Due to the special environment, the resolution accuracy of the optical telescopes and radio telescopes here is no worse than that of any giant telescope on the earth. If you want to communicate with your colleagues on the earth, you can choose to turn on the data switch here. Any top scientist on the earth is very happy to communicate with you the latest scientific data found."
"This is the power module. Its power source is mainly the chemical and nuclear fission fuel stored in the base, as well as solar panel arrays located a few hundred meters away from the base. You don't need to worry about insufficient energy. As long as the sun is there, the energy supply here will never be cut off."
"This is the tool and pit area. Here are the installation and repair information about all modules in the entire base, as well as the corresponding replacement parts. If there is a fault, you can properly repair them according to the repair manual or the guidance of the Earth expert. You have received two years of professional training on Earth, and I believe this will not hinder you."
“This is the air and water circulation equipment area…”
“This is the waste recycling area…”
Under the leadership of the two astronauts, Zhao Huasheng spent almost three hours visiting the entire lunar base, roughly understanding the equipment and regional distribution of the lunar base, and gained a rough understanding of the lunar base. After seeing the last place to pay attention to, Zhao Huasheng nodded gently, with no expression on his face.
"Then... from now on, this place will belong to you." The astronaut spread his hands and said to Zhao Huasheng.
The delivery of the lunar base has been completed, and the two astronauts also placed the supplies at the designated location. So the four of them came to confess to Zhao Huasheng. After that, they walked into the isolation cabin, put on space suits in the isolation cabin, and left the lunar base.
Through the camera installed outside the lunar base, Zhao Huasheng clearly saw a lunar rover carrying four astronauts heading towards the landing cabin ten kilometers away. After boarding the landing cabin, the lunar rover will be abandoned here. Zhao Huasheng can remotely control the lunar rover through remote control equipment and then come back.
Sitting in front of the surveillance screen, Zhao Huasheng stared at the lunar rover getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared into the heavy darkness. After a while, the surveillance equipment captured a bright fire in the distance. Zhao Huasheng knew that it was the landing cabin taking off. The landing cabin would dock with the Houyi spacecraft in the orbit of the moon, and then Houyi would take them back to the Sky Laboratory and then back to the earth.
Seeing the firelight in the dark sky gradually disappearing, Zhao Huasheng knew that at this moment, he was really the only one left on the moon. From now on, no matter what Zhao Huasheng looked at, he would feel a sense of loneliness and desolation.
Zhao Huasheng also came to the isolation cabin. After putting on the space suit, he came outside the moon base. Anyway, there was a navigation system in the space suit, so Zhao Huasheng was not worried about getting lost, so Zhao Huasheng wandered on the moon and walked in one direction. He didn't know how far he had walked until the light at the moon base completely disappeared from his eyes.
Zhao Huasheng simply lay on the ground of the moon, staring blankly at the stars in the sky, watching there until the spacesuit began to issue warnings of insufficient energy and oxygen content.
"Your purpose has finally been achieved. You have finally left human society and came to the moon alone... But why, I feel that you are very unhappy?" At this time, the long-lost voice of plasma life forms appeared in Zhao Huasheng's mind.
"That's my business, it has nothing to do with you." Zhao Huasheng said indifferently, "Start wait, wait for the sun to see here, and when the sun's light can reach here... I will construct a communication link between you and the sun civilization for you." (To be continued...)
