The lunar lander could not be ignited and started, and the hatch was blocked. In this case, if no rescue was carried out, the astronauts inside would have no hope of survival.

But even if a rocket is launched immediately to assist the moon, it will still take several days to arrive.

Analyze these situations.

The plan given by Musk is undoubtedly the only way.

Previously, taking into account the competition for lunar resources and the terrain advantages, the location where they landed on the moon was not very far from Yuegong-1.

About ten kilometers or so.

If the Yuegong-1 base is willing to send astronauts to support, the hatch can be opened from the outside.

Then temporarily go to the lunar base and wait for the new lander to arrive.

There is no other way.

However, this solution faces two problems.

First, will the other party agree to send people to rescue?

And the face of their aerospace agency.

Not to mention that he had previously faced reporters questioning the lunar base. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration had prepared a lot for this moon landing, and even cooperated with private companies such as the Space Exploration Technology Company in order to show the outside world its technology in the aerospace field. .

Now that the moon landing mission has not been completed and something unexpected happened, we have to ask our competitors for help.

It is undoubtedly a slap in the face.

Especially after the outside world finds out, I don’t know what will happen.

Nibisen quickly ran through these thoughts in his mind, and his whole body fell into a tangle.

I haven't been able to make up my mind for a long time.

Hesitant to contact the aerospace office across the street.

Musk saw the change in Nibison's expression next to him and guessed the other person's attitude without going into details, so he persuaded him again: "We must not just watch the two astronauts die on the moon. If this is the case, It would be a real shame to do that.”

Compared to Nibisen, who was hesitant, his attitude was very clear.

That is to try every means to rescue.

If there is really no rescue plan, then he will find a way to remember these two heroes who died on the moon.

After all, scientific exploration will always involve bloodshed and sacrifice.

I believe they are already prepared when they choose to become an astronaut.

But the problem is that there is still hope.

In this case, you absolutely cannot give up.

Otherwise, when the news is leaked, he will be despised by all mankind.

He had already made a decision in his mind. If Nibisen chose to give up the lives of the two astronauts on the moon, then he would contact Xu Yun in the name of Space Exploration Technology Company.

Ask the other party for rescue.

Just as Musk was thinking about this, the voice of the company's chief technology officer Ter Blanc suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Sorry boss."

"The spacecraft should not have been launched so quickly this time."

Apologizing for this mission.

Terblanco is indeed overconfident at times, but who gives him the strength to be confident.

But now that the lunar lander had such a serious accident, he felt very guilty.

During the previous re-inspection of the combined spacecraft, it was discovered that the lunar lander had a fault, and therefore the launch time was extended by three days.

After troubleshooting, I thought there was no problem. Who would have thought it would happen again at such a critical time?

And the situation is more serious.

If he could extend the launch time by a few more days, or conduct a major inspection of the entire lunar lander, then the current accident might be avoided.

However, some things cannot be changed once they happen.

"Now is not the time to say sorry, not to mention that the spacecraft has met the launch conditions at that time. It is better to find a way to rescue as soon as possible." Musk did not blame his subordinates at this time, even if the matter was urgent, he still said this to him.

After he finished speaking, he turned his attention to Nibisen again.

Terblanc reacted quickly when he heard this, and quickly reminded Nibisen:

"Chief Nibison, we must take measures immediately, otherwise Hagrid and the others will not be able to hold on for too long."

As these words reached his ears, Nibisen still looked solemn and did not speak his mind.

Even though his face didn't show anything, he could tell that he was definitely struggling in his mind at the moment.

But as Terblanco said, time waits for no one.

Since an accident occurs, rescue must be carried out immediately. Every second of delay increases the risk.

Therefore, Musk has officially lost his patience, and he does not intend to continue waiting for Nibisen's decision.

At this time, there was no need to take Nibison's face into consideration. He directly said in front of everyone in the hall: "Sir Nibison, if you can't decide, then I will ask the other party in the name of Space Exploration Technology Company." The Space Office is requesting assistance.”

"I believe that within their ability, they will definitely carry out rescue operations."

There was something else he didn't say, which was that rescuing the two astronauts was also for his own company's sake.

Regardless of whether NASA is leading the lunar landing restart plan, Space Exploration Technologies Corporation is a partner.

And specifically participated in the implementation of the plan.

If we really give up on the astronauts on the moon today, this stain will be attached to their space exploration technology company, and even the research and development of starships will be affected.

He certainly wouldn't allow this to happen.

Nibisen frowned when he heard what the two said. To be honest, he was really struggling.

So much so that the order has not been issued yet.

But as Musk said these words, he knew that he no longer had the right to continue to struggle.

In front of so many engineering and technical personnel in the hall, if you really choose to refuse rescue, the development of the aerospace industry will definitely be more difficult in the future.

Anyway, with the successive space-based weapons and lunar bases, they really have no authority in the aerospace field.

With his thoughts staying here, he no longer hesitated and immediately issued the final order.

"Immediately contact the other party's aerospace office, tell them the details and ask for their support."

"All expenses incurred during the rescue process will be borne by us." Nibisen added later.

When the words came to this, Teblank was undoubtedly very happy, and he immediately nodded in response and started executing.

"It's Chief Nibisen."

Nibisen looked at the other party's back, but suddenly felt a little emotional in his heart.

In the end, he did not shy away from Lao Ma next to him, and said in a deep voice: "From now on, I'm afraid we have to give up on the moon."

There is nothing wrong with what he said. This time he suffered so much in order to return to Earth.

Critical missions also failed.

It is conceivable that scientific research on the moon will definitely not be supported in the future.

Not to mention building a second lunar base.

In this way, it cannot be compared with Yuegong-1, and it is even possible that it will not land on the moon again.

I just don’t know whether the other party is really capable of developing lunar resources.

But Musk still has not lost confidence. Even though he knows Xu Yun's talent and strength are terrible, he is still full of confidence in his plan to immigrate to Mars.

He wants to build a Martian community that can accommodate millions of people.

And send millions of people to Mars.

"I believe that we will definitely be ahead of each other in research on Mars."

Nibisen raised his gaze when he heard the sound. He seemed to want to say something several times but kept silent again.

In the end, I chose silence.

…

As a veteran astronaut, Hagrid knew that the situation was very critical.

Maybe he will end his life in this cabin.

But he still didn't choose to sit still and wait for death.

Try as many possible solutions as possible in the hope of troubleshooting.

Actively carry out self-rescue.

His teammates, on the other hand, were obviously panicked.

After all, it was my first space mission to encounter such a thing, so it was normal to lack experience in dealing with it.

"Hagrid, are we going to die here?"

The sudden sound at this time made Hagrid temporarily stop his movements, raised his eyes and looked at his teammates in front of him with a complicated expression.

Although he wanted to comfort the other party, he really couldn't find a reason.

As an astronaut from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the other party should also understand the current situation.

So after a slight pause for two seconds, he said: "Maybe we still have hope of being rescued. Even if there is really no way, dying on the moon is not very romantic."

He neither gave his teammates clear hope nor gave up now.

Perhaps because he knew his responsibilities very well, his teammates' eyes became determined after hearing Hagrid's words.

Even if you die, you must try your best for yourself.

But just as the desperate atmosphere gradually spread in the cabin, the sound from the communicator made them instantly excited.

"I am Nibisen, the head of the Aeronautics and Space Administration. We have requested assistance from the Yuegong-1 base on the moon. Please wait patiently for rescue."

As an astronaut, how could you not know that Yuegong-1, as the first lunar base of human civilization, is something that every astronaut hopes to experience.

Unexpectedly, this time it was people from the moon base who came to assist.

What a pleasant surprise.

"That's great Hagrid. People from Moon Palace Base 1 will come to rescue us. We are fine."

"The Yuegong-1 base is more than ten kilometers away from us. There may be hope of rescue." Hagrid nodded to the colleagues in front of him, then leaned on the bulkhead to recharge his batteries.

I don't plan to keep fussing anymore.

Judging from their efforts just now, there is no way for the two of them alone to solve the problem.

The command center even chose to ask for help from the moon base, which proved that there was no good solution on the ground.

In this case, we can only place all our hopes on the moon base.

Rather than wasting all your efforts, it is better to wait for the arrival of the other party's rescue force.

As long as we can successfully enter the lunar base and take shelter, our safety will be guaranteed.

When the colleagues in front of him saw Hagrid doing this, they immediately learned to conserve their energy.

…

Time goes back to ten minutes ago.

At the imperial capital manned lunar landing base project report meeting, Xu Yun attended the meeting and delivered an important speech, summarizing the achievements in the aerospace field during this period.

Of course, what reporters are most concerned about is definitely the general plan for the follow-up of the moon.

Xu Yun didn't give in to this, and answered reporters' questions directly and truthfully.

"In the follow-up planning for the moon, in addition to gradually expanding the scope of the lunar base, we will also build small mining plants to try to accumulate experience in mining resources on the moon."

"But I believe it won't be too long before we can effectively use the resources on the moon."

Xu Yun's answer undoubtedly further ignited the atmosphere. The reporters in the audience were very excited, knowing that when today's news is officially reported, it will definitely attract a lot of attention.

After all, building mankind's first lunar base is not the end.

Originally, Xu Yun planned to speak more on the stage, but then he suddenly noticed Zhang Feng waving his hands on the side.

And judging from the expression on his face, the situation should be quite anxious.

You must know that in this situation, Zhang Feng was still eager to find him, so something important must have happened.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little worried, fearing that there was something wrong with the moon base or the Shenwei system.

Therefore, he ignored the speech on stage and left the seat in a hurry after leaving the topic to others.

Quickly walked towards Zhang Feng's location.

"What happened?"

Before he even reached the front, he immediately asked worriedly.

"Just now, there was a problem with the lunar landing project jointly conducted by Space Exploration Technology Corporation and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The lunar lander was unable to ignite and start the engine after the astronauts returned."

"At the same time, there is a problem with the hatch and it cannot be opened temporarily."

"Now they have sent us a request for assistance, hoping that we can send astronauts to rescue."

Xu Yun guessed that Zhang Feng had something important, but he didn't expect that it was about the overseas moon landing plan.

After hearing that the mission had failed, his reaction was quite confused.

It's unimaginable that the other party could have an accident.

"How could this happen? Didn't they re-inspect the spacecraft during launch?"

"Their rocket was delayed for three days before launching. I heard it was because of the troubleshooting of the lander, but I probably didn't expect that the problem would happen again." Zhang Feng thought about Xu Yun's question and said.

While the two were discussing, Zhou Mingwei came over and asked curiously about the situation.

"What happened?"

Faced with the same problem, Xu Yun and Zhang Feng had to explain the situation to Zhou Mingwei again.

Zhou Mingwei and Xu Yun had almost the same reaction to this, and they were quite surprised that such an accident occurred.

After all, if you look at the entire history of aerospace, there are only a handful of price accidents like this in the world.

After understanding the details, a problem appeared in front of them.

That's whether a rescue is going to happen.

"The landing site of the opponent's lander is more than ten kilometers away from us. Even if the lunar rover can reach it, there will be great risks in the process. This matter needs to be carefully considered."

Faced with everyone's silence, Zhou Mingwei finally took the lead to break the atmosphere.

Ask about it directly.

"From the beginning of the construction of the Yuegong-1 lunar base, the situation of multiple astronauts living together was taken into consideration, so there is no problem in temporarily hosting two astronauts from each other."

"In addition, the other party has stated that it will bear the cost of rescue."

"This requires our astronauts to take risks. What if something happens during the process?"

Zhang Feng took over Zhou Mingwei's words to express his views, and then turned his attention to Xu Yun.

After all, Xu Yun, as the general person in charge, needs to make decisions at this time.

Whether it is from a humanitarian or social point of view, facing the two astronauts who may die on the moon, it is indeed necessary for them to go to the rescue.

Besides, all astronauts are worthy of respect.

Considering that time waits for no one, Xu Yun quickly made a decision.

"Support their request for help, send forces to the location where the other party is trapped, and bring them safely back to Yuegong-1 Base."

"in addition."

"This mission does not require astronauts, just arrange two lunar rovers."

Yes.

Although Xu Yun agreed to provide assistance, he would not risk his own astronauts.

If you just open the hatch from the outside and bring two astronauts back, you really don't need the participation of the astronauts. The performance of the lunar rover's robotic arm is enough to open the hatch and bring them over.

Just enough to prevent our own astronauts from taking risks.

Anyway, they are just two lunar rovers, so even if something breaks down, there will be no problem.

This proposal also received support from Zhou Mingwei and Zhang Feng.

"We should really maximize the value of advanced equipment. I support this approach."

"I agree."

It can be said that Xu Yun has been very clear about the attitudes of Zhou Mingwei and Zhang Feng.

Fellow astronauts definitely don’t want to see anyone die on the moon.

Especially if a lunar base is built.

Since this rescue mission does not require astronauts, the two lunar rovers can be directly controlled remotely.

Normally, the lunar rover's activity range is about ten kilometers in radius. Although the target location this time is more than ten kilometers away, it can still handle it with the advanced technologies of the lunar rover. Therefore, with a simple command, the rescue operation has officially begun. .

After quickly handling this matter, Xu Yun did not delay the ongoing report meeting.

After saying hello to Zhou Mingwei, Zhang Feng and the others, they returned to the stage.

Maybe someone noticed Zhang Feng just now. After seeing Xu Yun come back so soon, his heart burned with gossip, so he took the initiative to ask when he got the opportunity.

"Commander Xu, you left suddenly just now. Did something happen?"

Xu Yun had no intention of keeping the accident secret for the other party. Since the request for help came to them, he had the obligation to let everyone witness this special rescue.

The thought stayed here, and Xu Yun responded directly and truthfully.

"There was indeed an emergency. The lunar lander of the Orion spacecraft that just landed on the moon failed to ignite, causing the two astronauts to be trapped in the cabin."

"However, we have dispatched rescue forces after receiving the call for help."

"I believe it won't be long before these two astronauts can experience life on the lunar base."

"In addition, I believe this will definitely be an unprecedented example of space rescue."

The reporters in the audience didn't think too much at first, but after hearing such news from Xu Yun, they couldn't sit still.

This is big international news.

Especially when carrying out rescue operations on the moon, you can imagine the danger and excitement just from the sound of it.

You can even imagine a movie in your head.

So immediately everyone asked for specific details and wanted to report the matter as soon as possible.
