Chapter 91 Lunar Mass -1 -1...
The Kanyue No. 1 of the Kansing Moon Landing Department team is not human’s first private mission to the moon. Long before, many private teams have tried it.
Coincidentally, they are all participants in the former Lunar Grand Prix.
Although many private teams were ambitious when they participated in the previous lunar grand prix, in the end, because no private team could send the probe to the moon on time, even if the previous lunar race was postponed for a few years, the former lunar grand prix Helplessly canceled.
However, the cancellation of the Grand Prix was cancelled, and the research tasks of some teams were not cancelled. After years of research, some teams are almost getting results, and they are definitely reluctant.
After hard work, a private team in Hexagon Country finally built its own private moon landing probe last year, and took a ride with two other satellites... Oh, took a rocket and flew to the moon.
Unfortunately, if this private lunar probe named "Genesis" can successfully land on the moon, the six-pointed star country will be the fourth country on the earth capable of achieving a soft landing on the moon after the white bear, Meriken, and Tianxia.
In the end, Genesis lost its signal at 150 meters from the moon.
Afterwards, Meriken Space Agency announced that it had discovered its impact site and officially stated that its mission to the moon had failed.
And just a few days ago, there was another private moon landing attempt, which was also the team that participated in the previous lunar grand prix.
They finally realized their dream of a private moon landing, and successfully achieved a soft landing on the moon, and the experimental equipment they carried was functioning normally, sending signals and data back to the earth.
At that time, it was also very concerned.
It's just that the mission of Kanyue No. 1 is not the same this time, it is more complicated, and it will not be over if it falls.
It is similar to the Chang'e 5 of the previous day.
The Chang'e-5 probe consists of four parts: the orbiter, the returner, the lander, and the ascender, and it is the same.
The total weight of Chang'e 5 is 8.2 tons, and the weight of Kanyue 1 is only 3.8 tons, which is less than half of Chang'e 5.
But small and small, can also meet the lunar grand prix.
First, the lander must be separated from the orbiter to achieve a soft landing on the lunar surface, and the orbiter must continue to circle the orbit of the moon.
Then, the lander that successfully landed must activate the shovel for sampling, that is, dig some lunar soil into the storage tank of the ascender.
After that, the ascender took off, docked with the orbiter on the lunar orbit, put the storage tank into the returner, and returned to Earth.
Finally, the orbiter releases the returner in the earth's orbit, and the returner re-enters the atmosphere. After reaching a predetermined altitude, it opens the parachute and landed.
After a few days of flying, Kanyue-1 was captured by the moon's gravity and entered an orbit around the moon.
After flying around the moon a few times and lowering its orbit, it finally entered the landing mode.
Since the initial launch, the Lunar Grand Prix official and StarNavigator have been paying attention to it at all times, and other participating teams are also very concerned. After all, this is related to their... ranking and bonus.
Big companies care about rankings, and small teams care about bonuses.
And the later bulk lunar landing contracts that are all concerned.
Interstellar Pilot Company continues to release new images, attracting the attention of the world.
In order to reduce the weight of Kanyue 1, a lot of loads were removed and the body was reduced. Only the basic equipment was retained. Many experimental loads were removed, but the key camera was still required.
I took a picture of the earth while away from the earth.
After flying for a while, I took pictures of the same size of the earth and the moon.
After approaching the moon, I took a picture of the moon larger than the earth.
In addition to these, the lander also has a large nameplate engraved with the name, which is also clearly photographed by the camera. Many people like to look for names on it.
These names come from all over the world and are the names of Kanxing game players. Whenever you find your own name or the name of a friend, there will always be a flamboyant wind on the social platform.
This is not the same as the name engraved in the chip that you need to find with a microscope. They can be seen at a glance.
Of course, the name must have been repeated, and there have been many oolong incidents as a result, until the principal issued a notice to confirm the registration.
Others don't know, anyway, this detector with Kanxing bloodline all over the body affects the hearts of Kanxing gamers all over the world, and also affects the hearts of many other gamers by the way.
All are games after all.
Many gamers are envious. The games they play are gone to heaven, and even the names of gamers can go to the moon, but the games they play are called rubbish every day.
For these reasons, more and more people paid attention to Kanyue 1 until the moment it landed.
Of course, I would also like to thank the Tianxia Space Agency for its help, because Kanyue-1 used Tianxia’s official lunar exploration network, accurate moon maps and detailed moon information.
It also got the help of the "Queqiao" relay satellite to keep it from disconnecting from the ground command center when it was on the back of the moon.
Moon landing live broadcast, start!
Because of satellite bandwidth limitations, the live video is very vague, but people don’t care about this and they all watch it very excitedly.
What is needed is this process.
It depends on the clarity, and after the signal is fully transmitted, there will be a high-definition recorded video.
"Landing the engine starts!"
"Put away the solar panels!"
"..."
"Enter hover mode!"
"Enter the stage of fine obstacle avoidance."
"..."
While watching the live broadcast, many people craned their necks to look at the moon in the sky, as if they could see the little lander over the south pole of the moon.
"Steady!"
"come on! Come on!"
As the lander got closer and closer to the surface of the moon, people became more and more nervous until the command center announced: "The landing was successful!"
Everyone cheered.
On the barrage.
[Ohhhhhhh!
[NB!!!
Command hall.
People stood up and applauded, and then more people came over to shake hands with Tang Chao, congratulations on another feat!
Became the world's second private team to land on the moon!
But "second place" can't satisfy Tang Chao, he wants first place.
Soon the command hall became quiet again, and people once again focused on the big screen.
In the animation simulation on the big screen, the solar panels are being turned on. After the solar panels are turned on, the good show is officially staged.
The live broadcast screen changed a lens, and in the lens, a mechanical arm fixed on the lander moved.
This robotic arm is very long, with several joints folded up on it, and when it is unfolded, people can see a small grab at the end.
This little grab is so small, no one's palm is big yet.
Its structure is also not complicated, it is a container space composed of two open and close bucket-shaped jaws.
I saw it slowly stretched towards the moon, then slowly opened the grab, and then slowly grabbed towards the moon.
After most of the grab was inserted into the lunar soil, he slowly closed the lunar soil and shut the lunar soil in his own grab.
The series of movements are very slow, very steady, and even a little...cute.
After grabbing a bucket of lunar soil, it slowly lifted it up to the top of the equipment and slowly put it into the storage tank of the ascender.
After completing this action, people are even more excited!
But this was not over yet, I saw that the small grab repeated the action just now, and grabbed another bucket of lunar soil.
This operation stunned the netizens who watched the live broadcast.
"Fuck, you can't grab a bucket, is this to fill the tank?"
"Its shovel is so cute, I want to buy the same one!"
"Unexpectedly, you, a cutie with big eyebrows and big eyes, would be so greedy, hahaha!!"
"This is what a macho should look at!!"
"Big grab: Little moon, eat my big bucket!!"
"Hahaha, the grab NB of Kanyue-1, the lunar mass is -1, -1, -1..."
