Chapter 139 Exploring the Moon One (Please Subscribe!)
This time, Zhu Lei and his team are planning to explore various resources on the moon and the feasibility of building a lunar base on the moon as the first transit station for mankind to conquer the universe in the future.
Although several countries in his previous life carried out detection operations, Zhu Lei, as a low-level public in his previous life, only heard about these things, and all countries in this world even carried out manned spaceflight before Zhu Lei came to this world. None of them have been carried out, so countries in the world still know nothing about the situation on the moon.
And Zhu Lei has already built a space station, and will definitely carry out moon landing activities in the future, so early lunar exploration operations are necessary.
Before landing on the moon, humans must first understand the status of the moon. Although the deep space probe launched a few months ago has already understood the status of the moon, this deep space probe is only for the space near the moon. The magnetic field and the surface conditions of the moon have only been initially understood.
This is just to provide reliable space data for the next step of lunar exploration, and now the deep space probe has already flown towards Mars, and is preparing to start a preliminary detection of the space conditions near Mars for the next step of launching the Mars probe Lay the foundation.
This deep space probe's Mars exploration will last for a week. After that, the probe will fly towards Mercury, and then it will conduct a close-up detection of the sun, the largest planet in the solar system, and then fly to other planets in the solar system for detection. , during which it will also explore the asteroid belt of the solar system.
When the deep-space probe's exploration of Mars is over, the Ming Empire will immediately launch a ground probe to Mars. After all, the Ming Empire is very different from the previous life. Not only is the cost of launching various spacecraft very low, Even the economic situation of the Ming Empire was incomparable to that of the Huaxia Kingdom in the previous life.
Therefore, the current Ming Dynasty Empire is of course rich and powerful. As the deep space probe ended its exploration of the moon, it immediately started the lunar exploration operation, and then the same was true for Mars, because the current Ming Empire has such confidence.
The entire lunar project is called the Lunar Palace Project. The entire plan is to use the launch probe to conduct preliminary detection of the magnetic field and the environment near the tone, and then launch the lunar lander to land on the moon for further unmanned exploration of the moon and the collection of lunar samples. , and then carry out a manned moon landing, and finally establish a permanent lunar base and mineral mining on the moon.
The entire plan of the Ming Empire will be completed within three to five years. This plan will be carried out simultaneously with the space city. After the entire plan is completed, the Ming Empire will further accelerate the exploration of the starry sky, and then will fully launch the Mars plan. .
Of course, it is still too early to say these things. The most important thing now is the exploration of the moon.
The lunar probe launched this time flew very fast and reached the lunar orbit in less than five hours. After several orbits in the lunar orbit, the probe successfully landed on the surface of the moon.
You must know that the moon is about 38 kilometers away from the earth, and this lunar probe has landed on the surface of the moon in less than five hours, which also includes the acceleration and deceleration time of the probe , if this time is not counted, then the speed of the detector will be even faster.
The lunar probe launched by the Ming Empire this time is not an ordinary probe. The entire lunar probe is actually a lunar probe. After the lunar probe successfully landed, the probe began to change quickly. The lunar spacecraft is a huge rectangular strip-shaped object, about 30 meters long, three meters wide and three meters high.
After landing, a row of metal tires protruded from the bottom of this rectangle, and then this rectangular object began to protrude from various camera manipulators, radar, and some detection equipment of solar panels.
After all the equipment is deployed smoothly, the detector starts to work. This detector is not comparable to Zhu Lei’s detectors from other countries in his previous life. The size, followed by the weight, this detector has a weight of nearly a hundred tons, and the main energy used is naturally provided by the gold battery, and the second is the solar plate.The entire probe is like a truck on the earth driving on the moon.
Due to the size and weight of the probe, the ability of this lunar probe to respond to emergencies and the ability to resist various dangers are much stronger than the probes of previous countries, so its mission this time is also More importantly, it not only needs to collect the soil of the moon from different places, but also conducts further investigations on the environment and minerals of the moon to prepare for the next step of the Ming Empire's Moon Palace project.
Moreover, after the completion of this lunar exploration operation, after the deep space probe completes the detection of Mars, this probe will continue to be used, and the detection of Mars will continue.
Both the Ming Empire and Zhu Lei have attached great importance to the Moon Palace project this time, because the entire Moon Palace project is a very important part of Zhu Lei's plan. Before, whether it was a space station or a space city, it was just the Ming Empire's advance. Just a bridgehead in space.
But the moon is different. Now the Ming Empire already has two types of aerospace vehicles, and the design of new aerospace vehicles for carrying cargo, manning and personal use has already begun. By then, the Ming Empire will be fully formed. With the advanced air and space system, the travel from the space city to the earth will be as convenient as that between the provinces of Ming Dynasty.
However, whether it is the current Suzaku-[-] or future cargo, manned, and personal aerospace vehicles, they can only operate near the earth, and if you want to build a spaceship that can truly sail in the infinite star sea, it is like a spaceship in a sci-fi movie. , then it must not be built on the earth.
And now that Zhu Lei has fully taken over the aerospace engineering of the Ming Empire, the research and development of controllable nuclear fusion has begun. The power storage is amazing, but for a real spacecraft that needs to travel in the universe for a long time, this little energy is far from enough.
After all, no matter how much power is stored, it is necessary to fully charge these gold batteries in advance, and only how much power can be used, and the large spaceships in the future will definitely not be like the current aerospace vehicles. , As long as a few kilograms of gold batteries are fully charged at one time, these aircraft can be used continuously for dozens or more hours.
