Super technology leader
Chapter 363: For Love and Peace
Joseph and Emily feel that today is definitely their luckiest and hapless day.
Being selected as a moon landing astronaut, and landing on the moon today, this is definitely a memorable day for a person's life.
However, it was also today that I landed on the moon. An accident happened. The lunar module I was riding in had an accident and I lay directly on the landing site.
Fortunately, the lunar module was not damaged much. It was directly hit on the ground, causing some cubes to rupture and leak. They were wearing space suits in the cabin, wearing helmets, and wearing seat belts. The problem was not serious.
Although they survived, it was temporary. They had to repair the manned cabin as soon as possible. The rupture of the cabin is too urgent. If it is not resolved, it may really die in a while.
When I was busy, I stuck the big crack, but the cabin was divided into several layers. The gel they filled in didn't know how long it could last, so several layers of tape were put on to ensure that the air leak was slow. Come down.
No way, there is no professional repair shop here, and they are not professional maintenance engineers. It would be nice to stick the lunar module according to the previous training content.
After temporarily saving their lives, they began to contact the ground and the orbiter, but there was no response at all.
They conducted a self-check on the lunar module with a computer, and found that the antenna had no signal. They guessed that the antenna was bumped and broken, so they wanted to go out for repairs.
In any case, you have to contact the ground or the orbiter, or they must die here.
The posture of the lunar module falling down is a bad one. The tank-shaped manned cabin was erected directly, making their space for activities very narrow. However, to open the door, both people must wear heavy Extravehicular spacesuits, after all, their manned cabins are not as "luxurious" as Benyue, with two separate pressurized cabins.
After finally putting on the extravehicular spacesuit, it turned out that the door was stuck.
It must have deformed the tank body when it fell, causing the hatch to jam.
Since the serious hatch is not reliable, they can only turn to the docking interface in space.
Originally, they shouldn't come in and out from that mouth, but now the situation is like this and they can't take care of that much.
The result is also stuck here.
Fortunately, they tried on both sides, and found that the space counter interface was not stuck, so they tried every means to pry the counter interface apart and crawled out of it.
Turning to the waist of the lunar module, after inspection, it was found that the antenna was broken, and the automatic finder device was broken. He had to come manually.
There is satellite position on the auxiliary computer, and then manually adjust the antenna position, barely able to talk.
This series of luck, luck, luck, luck, and luck, I bounce you back and forth, and you bounce me back and forth, making them exhausted.
If you died before, then it must be one hundred, but since you have survived, you definitely want to live longer.
So one of them manually controlled the antenna to communicate with the headquarters, while the other began to collect available materials and equipment.
They have to live as long as possible. Only when Gou's time is long can they wait for rescue.
Just like "The Martian".
However, the protagonist still has a base where he can grow potatoes, sleep comfortably, and take a shower. They only have a broken manned cabin, which is the kind of overturned vehicle.
Ok?
Speaking of the base, it is more than 300 kilometers away from them... It seems that there is a base!
Tianxia's moon base!
More than 300 kilometers, how fast is the opponent's lunar rover?
More than thirty kilometers.
More than 300 divided by more than 30, almost ten hours, they still have twenty hours of oxygen, even if the opponent can't drive to full speed, even if the road twists and turns, it should be enough!
Joseph flashed several sets of data in his mind with excitement, and then he quickly told the command center about it.
Astronauts are of course the people who have learned the most knowledge about space, and they still have the opportunity to practice. Naturally, I know that Meriken has not signed various agreements. After signing, they have retired. But when is it, it is fatal and life-saving At the time, even if there was a little possibility, he would not give up.
The reply from the command center surprised them even more.
"Yes, we are already communicating with Tianxia Space Agency and Navigator Aerospace Company, and are discussing feasibility plans. If you think of any good methods, you must put them forward as soon as possible."
Joseph and Emily were happy, feeling that they were saved, and there was no need to die on the moon, but the progress of the rescue plan at the ground command center was not so smooth.
Said to discuss the rescue plan together, but it is actually Tang Chao's home court.
After all, the Moon Palace II is owned by the Navigator Aerospace Company, and the lunar rover is also owned by the Navigator Company. Although the four astronauts belong to the Tianxia Space Agency, they have been arranged to obey Tang Chao's command for the sake of convenience.
The most important thing is that the detection satellites with the highest detection accuracy in the lunar orbit are also the pilots. If you want to plan a safe and fast rescue route, you must use these detection satellites.
"The problem now is that there is not enough time."
Tang Chao took the laser pointer and pointed at the image on the big screen in the conference room, and then his image also appeared on the big screen in the conference room of Meriken Space Agency.
"All the topography of the lunar surface from the Lunar Palace No. 2 base to the accident site is unfamiliar. Our lunar rover cannot run to a speed of 30 kilometers per hour. It can only use a speed of more than ten kilometers per hour, and the lunar rover cannot. Go straight and avoid many large and small craters, big rocks and two small hills on the road."
"The technical staff in the company found several suitable routes, and finally selected one. Its actual passing length reached 429 kilometers. The lunar rover is at a speed of more than ten kilometers per hour, and it is impossible to arrive in 20 hours. ."
The images displayed by Tang Chao are very clear and the various markings are also very clear. The specific time is marked on each route.
Everyone looked at the most clearly marked one, which was the final rescue route selected by Navigator.
[It takes 26 hours and the safety pass rate is 97%]
Looking at the others, the shortest time is 23 hours, but the safety pass rate is only 62%.
The highest safety pass rate reached 98.4%, but the time spent directly soared to 34 hours.
Because of the limited capabilities of the detection satellite, the safety of the road ahead cannot be fully detected. In some places, the situation can be discovered only when the astronauts go to the nearest place, and the astronauts need to analyze it themselves, so the probability of passing safely is not 100%.
Obviously, the 60% probability is definitely not allowed to go. Even the exploration satellite judges that the situation there is more complicated. The actual situation may be more complicated. Tianxia's astronauts are only going to rescue, not desperately, and there is no need to take risks.
It’s definitely safest to walk slowly, but it will take longer to slow down, and the astronauts of Meriken will hang up after the time, and it doesn’t make much sense when they arrive.
The most suitable one is indeed 26 hours.
If astronauts are allowed to reduce their oxygen consumption, perhaps the "20 hours" survival time mentioned before will be longer, but the problem is that the astronauts calculate according to the standard of waiting for rescue, and remove some of the oxygen consumed in the earlier stage of gathering materials. The standard of "reducing oxygen consumption" was added.
Each of the experts frowned, this is indeed difficult.
"If the astronauts are not allowed to approach the rescue convoy on foot, this can reduce the distance and perhaps some time."
"No, the astronauts will increase oxygen consumption as soon as they move, but it will shorten their survival time more quickly."
"This……"
Endless loop.
Fortunately, there is no one to show the way, Joseph suddenly contacted: "Command center, we checked all the available supplies and found that the folding lunar rover is still usable. I think we can take the initiative to approach the Lunar Palace 2 base for a certain distance."
The people in the conference room were taken aback, then cheered.
"It's done!"
The rest is left to Time and Goddess of Luck.
Both sides have to drive up their cars and drive towards each other's moon landing point, just like the plot of a certain Merrican science fiction TV series.
But this time, instead of stealing each other's homes, they reached out for rescue while trying to survive on the other.
For love and peace.
