MTL - Black Technology: Starting From the Space Jumping Machine-Chapter 64 moon base

  Chapter 64 Moon Base

   Lu Yu seemed to have missed the famous scene again.

  When [the Scourges] worked hard to shoot the spherical spaceship, he and No. 7 were watching the scene of Blue Star through virtual reality.

   It’s not that he doesn’t care. After all, it has been three months since he started attacking the Dyson ball civilization. In addition to shooting spaceships, spaceships are still shooting spaceships.

   But with the goal of conquering the star system, three months is still too short, especially now that Lu Yu can only use this soft method.

  After a long time, it is inevitable to relax.

   There just happened to be a grand event today, so Lu Yu simply took No. 7, who also imitated him, to take a look.

   On the long electromagnetic orbit, a 100-meter-long space shuttle is ready to go.

As the orbit was fully charged, the space shuttle began to slide on the orbit, and a light blue arc lighted up from the rear of the space shuttle, pushing the huge fuselage forward. It turned out to be pure electric propulsion, abandoning fossil fuels !

  As the speed of the space shuttle becomes faster and faster, leaving the arc-shaped electromagnetic orbit, the nose of the aircraft is slightly lifted upwards.

  Dragging the azure blue arc, carrying the longing of human beings for space, the silver fuselage sank into the depths of the clouds and headed for the blue sky.

  Watching it go away, the technicians standing beside the runway cheered and threw their hard hats into the sky, expressing their excitement.

   At the same time, in the stands less than a kilometer away from the runway, cheers also sounded.

  Listening to the deafening cheers, several professors wiped the corners of their eyes lightly with their cuffs while everyone was not paying attention.

On the contrary, the faces of several foreign friends were ugly. A middle-aged foreigner who was completely bald looked pale, because Huaguo had made major scientific and technological achievements in successive years, but he failed to find any relevant information. Members, half bald became completely bald,

  Beside him are NASA representatives with uglier faces. In recent years, Huaguo has made great achievements in spaceflight, especially the mission of this space shuttle, which makes NASA sleepless.

  It flew to the soon-to-be-completed lunar base with the space planting unit of Huaguo Moon Base, and Huaguo Aerospace was so confident that it invited colleagues from all over the world to watch the ceremony, which means they have absolute confidence that the launch will be successful!

   With the space shuttle out of sight, a large screen on the viewing stand was connected to the aircraft's viewfinder.

  …

  Because it is a ejection start, the astronauts wear special in-cabin spacesuits, which look barely light, and are made of new materials that Huaguo has advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years. As for the cost, it is about one million, and it has good pressure resistance.

   "Report to the headquarters, everything is normal!"

   "Chang'e-9 is heading for the moon as planned!"

   It is a long journey from the surface to space.

  Strictly speaking, the altitude from 100 kilometers (the upper limit of the airspace of each country) to 2000 kilometers is considered as low-Earth orbit.

  The climbing speed of the space shuttle is quite astonishing. The five engines are fully powered, like a retrograde meteor, dragging the blue arc light and continuing to climb. The dozen or so astronauts sitting in the cabin can clearly feel the rise in gravity, and because of the excellent performance of the space suits, they hardly feel it after getting used to it.

  The azure sea and thick clouds gather together, and the starry night beyond the arc of Wanjia lights is connected with the morning glow that connects to the edge of the horizon.

  Looking at the receding planet outside the window, everyone on the viewing platform or in the plane slightly magnified their shocking expressions.

   "Call the headquarters! Chang'e-9 has reached the scheduled orbit."

"everything is normal."

   "It is estimated that after three circles around the blue star, we will execute the operation to fly to the moon!"

   Afterwards, the images sent back from the moon reappeared in front of the guests invited to watch the ceremony.

  Because the earth and the moon have achieved tidal locking, the back of the moon has been hidden from human vision.

   But after field investigations, scientists found that the back of the moon is rich in oxygen-rich minerals and water brought by meteorites. Considering that such resources are the most urgent need for human survival when selecting the site for the base, the Antarctic Circle of the Moon, which can simultaneously develop resources on both sides, was chosen to build the first permanent space base for mankind.

  The space shuttle stays in lunar orbit, and the elevator module starts to work.

  With the successful delivery of the space planting unit and a large amount of materials, the first phase of the lunar base is not far from completion!

  On Huaguo Blue Star, a professor announced the news at a press conference with a manuscript he had prepared.

   "As the first phase of the lunar base is about to be completed, we are confident that the second phase will be completed within the next five years, turning the base into a self-circulating space base suitable for thousands of people!"

  “When the third phase of the project is completed and we build a nuclear fusion reactor on the moon, the lunar base integrating scientific research, living, smelting and manufacturing will accommodate more than 10,000 people, and the first human space city will be born on the moon.”

"At that time, the moon base will no longer need Blue Star to deliver materials. Instead, it can deliver a series of resources such as helium 3 and rare earth to Blue Star. At the same time, it will also become a pilot for human space heavy industry and deep space. When launching spacecraft to Mars in the future , perhaps set off directly from the moon!"

"However, considering that the demand for launches on the moon will be above kilotons in the near future, we are considering building a corridor between the synchronous orbit and the moon that can go back and forth quickly, specially used between the earth's orbit and the moon's orbit. material movement, and..."

  The reporters have been deeply attracted by the depicted future, and couldn’t help asking excitedly: “And?”

The professor smiled and looked at NASA, which he needed to look up to in the past, and now the person who represented it had a golden face, and then continued: "And, it is convenient for us to send more people who are interested in the moon to the moon." Go up, and travel to the moon will become an affordable way for ordinary people to travel."

  Several journalists who could make trouble quickly switched their cameras to take several close-ups of the invited NASA representatives.

  Thinking about the domestic space war to prove that the United States has never fallen behind in science and technology, the NASA representatives are ashamed, and they know that they have completely lost.

   At its peak, the organization that once claimed that every American paid $26 a year for it lost the new round of space hegemony before it even started.

  They may lose the moon forever, and it will be farther and farther away from them in the new order dominated by Huaguo.

  Lu Yu was too lazy to care about the narrow thinking of the Americans, he looked at the moon base that was expanding a little bit on the screen.

  Although these are the achievements of transforming the Horn Clan's technology and can no longer get points, there is nothing that makes Lu Yu happier than nurturing his own civilization and taking an important step towards the stars and seas.

  Although it is only one step, as long as we go on, no matter how slow, maybe one day we will meet in the starry sky.
