Five Hundred Thirty-Seven Stationed

There are a lot of people and a lot of strength. A dozen people have been busy for a while, and they have completed the preparations for dismantling the functional cabin. The functional cabin can be released only after the equipment is in place.

Ye Han stood on the top of the spaceship, stood tall and looked far away, and after a while, he found two strange-looking lunar rovers in the distance—all vehicles that drive on the surface of the moon can be called lunar rovers, no matter how long they are What does it look like.

When I got closer, I realized that they were two vehicles with thick mechanical arms. This kind of vehicle has no shell, and the driver sits on the chassis to control the vehicle.

The technology of manufacturing the outer shell is not complicated, but this thing is produced on the earth, and the outer shell will add a lot of load to the spacecraft. For the aerospace engineering of the Keke plan, this unnecessary load must be reduced.

Seeing Ye Han and others on the top of the spaceship, the astronauts on the car stretched out their arms and waved them vigorously from a long distance away.

Ye Han also waved his hand as a greeting.

"Hi, I'm Gao Kai." A voice rang through the radio.

"I'm Hu Liang." Another voice said.

"I'm Duan Zhiyang on the 1st, temporarily representing everyone... Let's introduce when we meet later, let's dismantle the functional cabin first." Duan Zhiyang said.

Everyone's true colors are covered under the masks of the space suits, and there is no difference between introducing or not introducing.

Gao and Hu agreed very much, and immediately drove the two vehicles to the vicinity of the spaceship, and inserted the end of the robotic arm into the locking structure outside the functional cabin.

In order to maintain the balance of the spaceship, two vehicles are placed on both sides of the spaceship, and two symmetrical functional cabins are respectively fixed.

"Dismantle!" Duan Zhiyang roared, and Ye Han and others on the spaceship unlocked the locking structure together. The two functional cabins were separated from the main body of the spaceship at the same time, and the mechanical arm lifted the functional cabins steadily.

A few people jumped on the lunar rover, followed the car and drove the lunar rover with the functional module into the distance. After a while, the lunar rover drove into a small flat plain and placed the functional module in the position that had already been determined.

Several people in the car jumped down immediately, and according to the procedures they had been exposed to during the ground training, they found the electrical equipment installed nearby, and used cables to introduce electricity into the functional cabin.

The temperature difference between day and night on the surface of the moon is extremely large. In order to avoid damage to the cables due to the severe temperature difference, the cables must be buried underground. Therefore, the progress of the project is not very fast. The first functional cabin has just been connected to power, and the last two functional cabins have been sent to the designated Location.

But not all astronauts followed,

Four people, including Ye Han, remained on the spacecraft, and the astronauts were divided into two places to perform their respective tasks.

Ye Han and the others did not want to live in the spaceship, but to dismantle the retro rocket of the spaceship and gather the remaining fuel together.

The disassembled retro rocket can't be wasted. After the fuel tank is emptied, install the valve that has been prepared a long time ago, which is a good gas cylinder, which can store oxygen or any gas.

This thing is useless on the earth, but on the moon with no atmosphere, the gas cylinder is an absolutely indispensable important storage device.

At the beginning of its design, Aerospace-1 adopted the principle of multi-purpose, and designs like fuel tanks abound, even Aerospace-1 itself is no exception.

In addition to the retro rocket, there are four small rockets on the Aerospace-1. When necessary, you can take the Aerospace-1 to leave the moon. From today, the Aerospace-1 is the final guarantee for the safety of the astronauts stationed on the moon. , The spacecraft must be inspected frequently, kept in a launchable state at all times, and sufficient food and drinking water must be stocked at any time.

The construction of the resettlement area is also continuing. After the first functional cabin was connected to the power supply, Duan Zhiyang personally opened the cassette placed outside the cabin and pressed the button to start the functional cabin.

The two sides of the functional cabin were immediately opened, and the internal inflatable structure slowly expanded, and soon turned into a hemispherical oversized tent. The two hemispherical tents were connected to the functional cabin, like an oversized tent half buried in the soil. dumbbells.

The material used to make tents is a kind of memory metal. After fully inflated, the space inside each tent has hundreds of square meters, and it is divided into upper and lower layers.

The unfolding of the tent is also just the beginning. The unmanned engineering machinery that had been sent to the lunar surface immediately started working according to the procedure, accumulating a thick layer of lunar soil on the outer layer of the tent, and burying the hemispherical tent under the lunar soil.

The thick lunar soil can effectively block radiation, resist external temperature changes, and maintain the existing indoor environment-this technology comes from the European Space Agency and is also the result of in-depth cooperation.

The cooperation between China and Europe is not so pleasant on the surface. Many technologies are exchanged. However, the EU is a multinational alliance. Even if some member states are hostile to China, at least some member states are willing to cooperate with China. The two offset each other. It is much easier to deal with Europeans than Americans.

Due to adequate preparations, it took only half an hour for the first functional cabin to be buried by the thick lunar soil, and the interior began to be inflated and pressurized, and other functional cabins will also be launched one after another.

Fourteen astronauts, including Gao and Hu, called the six functional modules the first phase of the lunar community project.

Judging from what everyone knows, it won't be long before the second phase of the project will start as scheduled.

However, unfolding the functional cabin is still the first step, and the next step is to place various living facilities or other equipment in appropriate places.

All the things sent to the moon must follow the principle of lightness and ease of use. For example, the seat beds in the living cabin are all inflatable bed chairs made of light and strong materials. These things look very thin, but even in the standard gravity environment of the earth It can also withstand the weight of an adult, not to mention the gravity of the moon, so that everyone has to release some of the gas in the inflatable furniture to make the pavement soft and compliant.

Tables, shelves, and other similar platforms are all made of light and thin alloys, and all of them adopt standardized designs to reduce weight and volume as much as possible. By combining these parts, you can get all kinds of necessary furniture.

In addition, there are sanitary appliances, water supply pipelines, sewage systems, life support equipment, etc., all of which need to be assembled step by step by astronauts, and it will take at least a few days to complete all the projects.

Fortunately, only the living cabin is so complicated. The other functional cabins have special purposes, and the internal facilities are much less than the functional cabins.

For example, the soilless cultivation cabin, the only function here is to use soilless cultivation technology to grow vegetables and study the influence of the lunar environment on plants.

If the plants on the earth can grow normally on the moon, then it is very possible to open up a farm dedicated to growing food in the underground base in the future, so that the moon base no longer depends on the earth for food, realizes true self-sufficiency, and even feeds back to the earth like Li.
