Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

After the meeting, the Xiaguang Sky Shuttle was officially inaugurated and remains the responsibility of Hou Guang.

Time passes day after day, and the time soon reaches the end of January.

After a long wait, several units, such as the Agency and NASA, jointly published the winning results of this human moon climbing programme on the official website.

Without any suspense, the Xiangrui, which was the first to achieve a delivery capacity of 50 tons in near-Earth orbit, won the competition without suspense and successfully won the most important of the entire manned lunar landing project - that is, the project on the carrier.

As a matter of fact, it doesn't matter if you get here or not.

After looking at the excellent performance of the Xiangrui, anyone who believes but has a normal IQ will make the right choice.

A total of 10 billion dollars was made available to quickly solve the starry sky technology emergency.

Under an agreement with the Raccoon Group, Starscream repaid all corporate borrowings and began to use the remaining funds to sit in the final preparations for the upcoming human moon climb.

For the moon deck, command deck, service deck, out-of-class space suits, lunar vehicles, ringmoon communications satellites and other components necessary for other moon climbing projects, more than a dozen aerospace enterprises, such as Aeronautics Group, were awarded bids respectively.

Many of these projects have been completed, such as the most critical command module and moon deck, and as early as December of last year, the powerful Aeronautics and Technology Group had shown relevant samples.

The entire moon climbing project is ready to commence as long as a large thrust rocket with a transfer orbital delivery capacity of more than 24 tons of earth moon is completed.

Given the current capacity of the Cheung Sui, this condition has undoubtedly been met.

As a result of discussions between senior officials and departments, the human moon climbing plan was eventually set for the day before Spring Festival 2021.

In the less than a month leading up to Spring Festival, the most important task of astral science and technology is to discuss and develop specific launch plans with other lunar project participants and coordinate specific launch efforts.

The funds allocated by the State were quite adequate, the impressive performance of the Xiangrui in the test flight also greatly enhanced the confidence of domestic space enterprises, and all participating units showed a momentum of success in preparing a special New Year's Eve gift for the people of the country and the world in the upcoming Spring Festival.

Early morning at the end of January.

Sun Chengping, the old chief of Aeronautics and Technology Group, arrived in Jinling by plane with several experts.

A black sedan parked at the door of the Space Shuttle Assembly Center, and after getting off, Sun Chengping enthusiastically stretched his right hand up and shook his hand holding the ark.

“It's a pleasure to meet you, Professor Lu. ”

“President Sun was polite," Ark responded with a decent smile. After releasing his hands, he made a gesture, “Leave the cold words for a moment, please come with me. ”

Since both the command module and the moon deck for this launch were completed by the Aeronautical Science and Technology Group, one important issue was the compatibility of the moon deck and the command module with the Shuttle Xiangrui.

The smooth exit of equipment from the cabin, the successful recycling of equipment after exiting the cabin and the presence of interference between spacecraft during moon climbing missions must be studied and discussed by professionals. It would be embarrassing if we didn't fix this, wait until we threw something down on the moon and found it impossible to retrieve it.

Following in the footsteps of the ark, a pedestrian quickly saw the huge thing parked in the hangar.

And the Air Force Equipment Institute experts were initially a facial expression, and after seeing the real guy, almost all of them had deep surprises and shocks on their faces.

Especially those five rough electric propulsion vents.

On that bright metal case and spiral texture, almost all astronauts and aeronautical researchers dream of a lifetime...

After about six or seven seconds of inactivity, Sun Chengping felt an emotion.

“This is the Cheung Rui? ”

The Ark laughed and said, "First time I saw you? ”

“That's not true," President Sun shook his head and said with emotion, "I've seen him on TV twice. But after watching it from the screen for a long time, it wasn't as stunning as I saw it myself. ”

The ark laughed and said, "Do you want to go up and sit down? I promise it's more exciting. ”

Sun Chengping coughed dry and said: “This… is not necessary, I am a bit afraid of heights. ”

Meanwhile, next to the Xiangrui, Aeronautical Science Group experts have begun to interact with technicians on the side of the Jinling Institute of Higher Studies.

“… what is the approximate carrying capacity of this thing's moon transfer orbit? ”

Hou Guang: “In theory, it can reach up to 25 tons. ”

“25 tons?” After a moment of reflection, Aeronautics Group experts continued to ask, "Which option do you think would be more appropriate? ”

Hou Guang: “At present, the most reliable is still the Moon orbit collection. Our recommendation is to integrate the command module into the Xiangrui module and to place only the moon deck onto the surface of the moon after entering the lunar orbit, thus avoiding the risks that may arise during the command module recovery process. ”

There are four main methods of climbing the moon: direct take-off, Earth orbit set, Moon surface set, and Moon orbit set. 1 > 4 > 2 > 3 in terms of safety factor. 2 > 4 > 3 > 1 in terms of rocket performance requirements.

In fact, the Apollo spacecraft has historically chosen exactly option 4, the Moon Orbit Assembly Method. First, a spacecraft was launched into the moon orbit in its entirety, part of it landed on the moon and part of it remained in orbit. After completing the moon climbing mission, the part of the landing returns to the moon orbit and combines to return to Earth.

After listening to Hou Guang, the engineer touched his chin and nodded his head.

“Integrating the cockpit into the ship? Interesting idea, we'll think about it...”

Looking at the engineers standing next to the Xiangrui, Sun Chengping spoke with emotion.

“I didn't expect to see the string moon with our Chinese footprints on top of the Nine Days in my lifetime. ”

The ark laughed and said, "The string moon above the nine days is just the beginning, and we will go further away in the future. ”

His gaze shifted from the sky shuttle to the ark, and Sun Chengping spoke in a somewhat confused tone.

“May I ask you a question? ”

Ark: “What's the problem? ”

Sun Chengping: “Actually, I've always been curious, you've always insisted on being a mathematician, but your contributions in other areas have far exceeded your achievements in mathematics. ”

The ark laughed and asked, "Do you think so? ”

Sun Chengping: “Isn't it? ”

Thinking about it, the Ark said, "Whether it's controllable fusion or space, these superworks are going to be solved sooner or later as society develops, and all people need is a lot of resources, and the wrong time to try. Yet mathematical questions differ in nature, and there is no essential difference between a hundred and two centuries, even if a mathematical tool has been refined, if no one climbs the peaks of these human minds, those questions will never be answered. ”

Sun Chengping smiled and said: "That makes me even stranger. ”

“Strange what? ”

Sun Chengping: “If you think mathematics is so important, why are you interested in space? ”

Ark: “Are you curious about my motives for studying this thing? ”

Sun Chengping nodded.

“Kind of. ”

The ark laughed and answered with an easy mouthful.

“It doesn't matter at all. ”

“The important thing is it's right there, waiting for me to fix it. ”
