#348 - Half a century later, humans landed on the moon again
In fact, it wasn't just ordinary people who were shocked; people from other countries' space agencies and aerospace companies felt the same way.
Especially those at the American Space Agency.
Back then, their manned lunar landing missions were a one-shot deal, with no repeated locations, so each landing faced a semi-unfamiliar landing site.
They had to observe whether there were dangerous pits or rocks on the ground while descending, as the lunar orbit was too far away, and the small telescopes equipped on the probes and orbital modules couldn't clearly see the true details of the ground. Therefore, each landing was a major adventure, requiring extreme caution.
Just like humanity's and America's first manned lunar landing, when the astronauts were piloting the lunar module to descend to the lunar surface, the alarm indicating computer overload suddenly started to sound.
It was this alarm that caused the lunar module to fly an extra 4 seconds in the descent trajectory, meaning the actual landing site would deviate several kilometers to the west of the planned location.
Moreover, due to several abnormal program alarms in the navigation computer, the ground control center at the time faced a crucial, split-second decision—whether to terminate the lunar landing mission!
Because the lunar module only had enough fuel for one attempt at that time.
After quick deliberation, the commander-in-chief, "relying on intuition," allowed the astronauts to attempt the lunar landing.
When the astronauts refocused on the outside view, they found themselves between a rock and a hard place. Due to the computer malfunction, they had flown past the pre-selected landing area, and the fuel was running out quickly, so the astronauts chose to manually control the lunar module.
The lunar module continued to descend, and the fuel began to deplete. When the lunar module was about 9 meters above the lunar surface, there was only 30 seconds of fuel left.
It was the astronauts who calmly and quickly found a suitable landing spot on the lunar surface covered with gravel and craters, and finally allowed the lunar module to land steadily on the moon.
This feeling of fighting with death directly made the astronauts break out in a cold sweat.
Compared to the landing of the Benyue lunar spacecraft, it could be described as elegant. The commander and deputy commander had the feeling of a civilian flight landing.
Upon seeing this, the people at the American Space Agency began to worry again.
It seems, probably, maybe... their return to the moon is no different from the previous lunar landing, another great adventure, an extreme test for both astronauts and lunar landing equipment.
People thought the lunar landing would be quite exciting, and it would be even more exciting if it were broadcast live, but they didn't expect it to be so elegant this time.
Although it exceeded people's imagination, after a little thought, they realized that this was due to technical reasons.
Navigator's technology is awesome.
"The secrecy is really good. Navigator didn't say that Moon Palace-2 also has navigation functions before. Haha, I thought it was just a survival cabin."
"That's great, this area can get rid of 'blind landing' in the future. With ground guidance, the landing accuracy, success rate, and comfort will be improved by several orders of magnitude."
"Technology is developing quite fast, well, it's not too fast. Decades ago, the American lunar landing was thrilling enough. I didn't expect it to be possible to land like this now."
"Don't mention America, even the landing of Moon Palace-2 was not peaceful. It was even discovered after landing that the landing site was a small slope. It would have been better to move a little bit to the side. Fortunately, its landing gear can be telescopically adjusted."
"Moon Palace-2 is considered the infrastructure here. Just like if you want to drive fast and well, you must first build the road. Building the road is infrastructure. With the landing guidance of Moon Palace-2 here, and eight lunar vehicles responsible for organizing the ground, the landing process is naturally smooth."
"Yes, infrastructure is too important. From this, we can see the difference between Tianxia and America. America gets there first, but doesn't develop at all. It just attacks everywhere, stands for a moment and leaves. The five successful lunar landings don't seem to be much different, while Tianxia's plan is obviously to gain a firm foothold on one point, then develop rapidly, and finally go out and level everything."
Tang Chao curled his lips as he watched these netizens discuss, thinking in his heart, what is this infrastructure? You will know when the real infrastructure comes.
Outsiders simply don't understand Tianxia's infrastructure capabilities.
As the Benyue approached the lunar surface, the landing site captured by the external camera of the Benyue became clearer. The audience watching the live broadcast could see the Moon Palace-2 with its solar panels deployed, and the seven lunar vehicles next to the Moon Palace-2.
Although the eight lunar vehicles have been wandering on the moon for ten months, during which one was "broken", seeing seven vehicles gathered together in another perspective still makes people feel that the original Navigator was really crazy.
Of course, the most obvious is the circular landing site below.
Compared to the original lunar surface environment with pits and rocks next to it, this circular area, which has been obviously renovated and has a lot of vehicle tracks, is too obvious.
A 500-kilogram lunar vehicle is not heavy, but the back-and-forth rolling of seven vehicles is enough to make the lunar soil on the lunar surface more compact.
Although it can't keep up with the working ability of a road roller, and it's not as good as a specially built landing site, it's still much better than the original lunar surface full of fine lunar dust.
In the Benyue's cockpit, the data obtained by the spacecraft itself and the data provided by the Moon Palace-2 corroborate each other, and the most accurate data escorts their landing. Cheng Dong calmly deals with various problems in the main driver's seat.
"Ten meters!"
"Five meters!"
"Two meters!"
"Shut down the engine!"
The latest novels are first published on Liu\\/9\\/Shu\\/Ba!
"Understood!"
The moment the engine was shut down, they felt a vibration, and then the [Touchdown] prompt on the screen lit up.
Only vibrated once, indicating that their landing posture was very upright, and also indicating that the landing point was very flat, and the four landing gears touched the ground at the same time.
This is thanks to Moon Palace-2 and the lunar vehicles. Without their support, such a smooth landing would not be possible at all.
There was only the sound of equipment running in the cockpit. Cheng Dong and Lin Yang looked at each other, and Tong Anfu and Peng Zizhen in the back row also looked at each other. Everyone felt a little unbelievable.
"We've... landed on the moon?"
"Benyue, have you landed successfully?"
Although the ground control center witnessed the landing of the Benyue from various perspectives, it still needed to be confirmed by the astronauts.
Hearing the ground's question, Cheng Dong quickly changed from an unbelievable state to a serious state, "We have successfully landed on the lunar surface, repeat, we have successfully landed on the lunar surface!"
As soon as he said this, everyone watching the live broadcast on Earth couldn't help but cheer, not just Tianxia people.
At this moment, their four astronauts are not just Tianxia people, they are also earthlings on the moon.
More than fifty years, mankind has finally landed on the moon again!
"It's done!!"
"Yay!"
"Awesome! Awesome!"
"Ahhhhh!! I'm not sleeping tonight!!"
