Chapter 3 Landing on the Moon

 At 8 a.m. on September 12, 2030, after a few hours of light rest, the three began to work on the third step of the moon landing plan.

Landing on the moon.

The three people climbed into the lunar module, and then the lunar module separated from the space capsule. After separation, the space capsule will remain in the lunar orbit and continue to rotate, waiting for the return of the lunar module.

Because the moon's gravity is only one-sixth of the earth's gravity, the launch of the lunar module does not require too strong propulsion.

So they don't need to carry any rockets on the moon.

And because of the rapid development of artificial intelligence, they don't need to manually land on the moon, the autopilot will control everything.

"Pa!"

A crisp sound sounded in the lunar module, and then the lunar module completely separated from the space capsule. Under the control of the autopilot, the lunar module began to slowly fall towards the moon.

As they got closer to the moon, Han Xu and the others also saw many huge craters. These craters were very huge, like the Colosseum in ancient Rome. They were filled with rocks the size of cars. They were obviously not suitable for a good landing site.

.

Nangong Yue was carefully selecting a suitable landing site. There was still a lot of fuel in the lunar module, enough for them to make several round trips.

Han Xu was always worried about the upcoming astronauts from Country M. He asked: "Country M's manned moon landing is 48 hours ahead of schedule. Why are they in such a hurry?"

Nangong Yue said: "Because both our country and Country M are certain that there are incredible things hidden on the back of the moon, so they are very anxious, and we are even more anxious!"

Chu Fei frowned and clenched her fingers. She said: "The other party must have come prepared, and there are ten of them. It is difficult for us to fight against them!"

Nangong Yue frowned: "It's not surprising what happens on the far side of the moon. If we encounter them, a conflict may break out, so we must speed up and unlock the secrets of the far side of the moon before they do!"<

/p>

Nangong Yue immediately controlled the descent of the lunar module. Under his control, the landing of the lunar module did not make any mistakes. However, the moment they landed, they lost contact with the earth.

This made them all stunned, like a child whose umbilical cord had been cut. At that moment, a boundless loneliness surrounded them.

Han Xu smelled the smell of roasted milk again, and Nangong Yue and Chu Fei also frowned at the same time.

"A smell of decay."

"The smell of death."

Both of them have a bad premonition.

Han Xu felt a little hot in his chest, as if the amulet was heating up, but because he was wearing a spacesuit, he couldn't check it.

Maybe it's an illusion.

Han Xu thought so.

"There is a strange magnetic field on the back side of the moon. Even if the space capsule is used as a transit station, it cannot be contacted with the earth." Chu Fei has already started to pack things and will continue the mission no matter what happens.

Han Xu successively tried multiple ways to contact the Earth Command Center, but failed.

"Next, we will lose contact with the ground command center, so even if people from country M log on to the back of the moon, we will not know."

Han Xu's words made the other two people feel heavy in their hearts. They all knew that as long as people from country M landed on the back of the moon, they might be attacked at any time.

Nangong Yue said: "So we must act as soon as possible!"

The lunar module slowly landed on the surface of the moon. Because the gravity of the moon is only one-sixth of the earth's, the landing of the lunar module did not stir up much dust. Han Xu, who was riding in the lunar module, only felt

It was so violent that the various instruments in the cabin only trembled slightly.

Nangong Yue's worries were finally relieved. Although he only chose the landing place and the landing was completed by artificial intelligence, it still made him feel frightened.

But it turns out that the design of the lunar module is rigorous enough that they don't need to worry at all.

Time was running out, so they started preparing to leave the module the moment the lunar module touched the lunar surface. The three of them made final inspections of various equipment in the lunar module, because this was their base camp for investigating the far side of the moon.

The outpost contains enough supplies for them to survive for a month, but they only plan to stay here for ten days.

After landing, the three people immediately got into intense work. Nangong Yue began to collect soil samples and install communication equipment. This was not communication equipment with the earth, but communication equipment on the moon to communicate with the space capsule.

Chu Fei has transported various instruments in the warehouse to the moon. Because the gravity is only one-seventh that of the earth, Chu Fei has become a strong man. She can easily lift any instrument no matter how heavy it is with one hand.

Han Xu was responsible for assembling the lunar rover. In order to take away more equipment and instruments, they needed a lunar rover as a transportation tool. In order to bring a larger lunar rover, the command center made a plan to bring parts.

The decision to assemble the far side of the moon.

Although wearing a space suit is not very flexible, because the gravity is smaller than on the earth, Han Xu can still assemble it easily. In a short time, Han Xu assembled the lunar rover.

The black solar panels also spread out to both sides. This is an electric vehicle, not a fuel vehicle, because fuel is too precious.

After the assembly of the lunar rover was completed, the three people got on the lunar rover. Nangong Yue drove it himself. After a few seconds, the lunar rover began to move forward slowly. The speed was only a little faster than they could walk, but it could save them a lot of time.

Physical strength.

While driving slowly, they began to approach the huge crater. There were huge moon rocks along the road. The road was not too steep, but there were some ups and downs.

Han Xu said: "With the current power of the lunar rover, we can only travel about ten kilometers, and it takes ten hours to charge the solar panels to fully charge the lunar rover's battery."

The lunar rover was naturally fully charged before being carried to the lunar module, but once the battery power was exhausted, it had to be charged by solar panels for ten hours. After all, only two solar panels could only provide this level of charging.

Efficiency.

Nangong Yue looked at the huge crater, which was their destination, and said, "That's enough. The lunar module is only seven kilometers away from the destination."

Han Xu looked at the time display on his left wrist and said: "If Country M's moon landing plan is not advanced, then in 48 hours, they will launch the launch vehicle, and in 52 hours, they will enter the lunar orbit.

And discovered our lunar module."
