Chapter 571

……

In the joint landing operation, both sides sent personnel, with a total of nine armed tactical teams. Yang Licheng was the top operational commander, and black Sidon was the deputy commander. The nine person Sino US mixed armed tactical team was composed of five Chinese and four Americans respectively. Xiaozhuang was the main driver of the manned Lander. Wang Jiang was Ren Hong and islin People, as scientists, are also involved.

The landing in pezos Highlands is a team of 14 people.

Ren Hong's new discovery brought everyone together again and held an interim meeting. The original mission action plan was also adjusted, which delayed the landing operation for several hours. Fortunately, there was no problem.

Thirty hours later, the landing operation officially began.

Ren Hong and other planetary landing members completed their third rendezvous. Led by Ning Zebo, they all walked out of the centrifuge module and went to another space capsule. All 15 of them were wearing tight short sleeves and trousers, drifting forward in the main passage module of the "firefly space station".

There are many windows on the way. Many people look out into the outer space through the windows. They can see that there are two huge aircrafts in front of them, which are respectively fixed by a 30 meter long truss. The diameter of the truss is 3.7 meters wide. This is a hollow passage, which is the corridor into the aircraft.

At the moment, the two trusses are more than 60 meters long. They are respectively fixed with two aircrafts, spinning slowly on the main cabin truss of the "firefly space station".

The two aircrafts have a unified official name, namely: space orbit and planetary carrier. The model is the first generation (the first generation). The two spaceships also have their own independent codes, namely "hongying-001" and "hongying-002".

As its name suggests, the appearance of the two "Red Hawk" aircrafts mirrors the color of the surface of Mars. The whole body is red copper in long rectangular shape. From the three views of the spacecraft, the spacecraft looks like a parallelogram in profile, while it looks like a sub square outline when looking at it, and it looks like a triangular outline when looking down on it.

The Americans who came here found a very interesting thing. The Chinese people seem to have a special preference for the name of "Eagle", including weapons and missiles, such as the anti-ship missile "Eagle strike system", including the power class a "Republic Eagle" which is well-known all over the world, and the "arc hawk system" produced by CMSX With "Red Eagle system" and so on.

When they arrived at the last corner, Ning Zebo stood still at the turning point. Commander Yang Licheng led them through the 30 meter long truss passage.

On the way, an American astronaut couldn't help asking, "Mr. Yang, I'm curious how this spaceship landed?"

"You'll find out in a minute." Yang Licheng smiles. He opens the hatch and takes the lead in entering the interior of the spaceship. As soon as people arrive in the cabin of "red hawk-002", Laomei expresses surprise one by one. After entering the interior, they find that the carrying capacity of this landing vehicle is far beyond their expectation.

Xiaozhuang has already brought his deputy into the cab. Eleven people in the core cabin sit on two rows of seats in the cabin according to the serial number and fasten them with safety bolts. A Mars rover with two rows of six pairs of 12 wheels and three containers are fixed in the center of the cabin.

The members of the two rows were also isolated from each other by the cargo box and Rover in the middle.

The carrying capacity of the "red hawk-002" has reached an astonishing 70 tons. All the members of the landing crew have arrived on the train, but there are still dozens of vacancies in the two rows of the cabin. The spacecraft can transport up to 40 members and four pairs of container cargo at one time, or it can load seven sets of container cargo after simple modification without transporting personnel The maximum load is 73 tons.

This time, the carrying capacity of the spacecraft is only about 40 tons, far from the maximum carrying capacity.

Twenty minutes later, the "red hawk-002" vehicle was officially separated from the space station and began to "fall" into the Martian atmosphere. The crew members could not see the outside world, but after the first intimate contact between the spacecraft and the atmosphere of the planet, turbulence followed.

On the Martian skyline, the huge red hawk-002 is still like a streamer across the sky.

"Why bring a rover down?" Sitting next to Ren Hong, the only woman Elsie Lin, forced to endure the discomfort brought about by deceleration, asked.

"Because it's a long way from the pezos area." Ren Hong replied.

"I don't understand what you mean." Evelyn shook her head.

"Well, because there is no long enough open landing runway in pezos area," Red Hawk "will complete hard landing in the open sand 22 km away from pezos. Well, it is the same reason as Airbus landing runway, which can be understood in this way." Ren Hong said.

As soon as the words fell, some of the old Americans turned their heads and looked at him

"It's about to land!" Ren Hong ignored the astonished old beauties, but looked up at a crystal panel to show the distance between the spaceship and the ground. The old maidens became nervous and subconsciously clenched their seats.

Ren Hong looked surprised and nervous. He said with a smile: "take it easy, guys. The" Red Hawk "transport ship has strong environmental adaptability. You can think of" Red Hawk 2 "as the c-130a transport plane of the United States. The design concept of this transport ship is obtained from c-130a. Obviously, the adaptability of transport aircraft like the C-130 series is the best Choose. ""I see."

Americans are not unfamiliar with their own C-130 series transport aircraft. The original model can be traced back to the last century. The carrying capacity of this transport aircraft may be average, but its biggest highlight is its adaptability to harsh environment. It can take off and land at will in the beach, grassland, sand and other environments. As long as it is flat and open enough, it is its runway and its Compared with his pampered large aircraft, the C-130 series is simply perfect, and it is also the favorite of the U.S. Army. The retirement of the C-130 once made the United States sad for a long time.

It was unexpected that the Chinese Mars landing vehicle actually referred to the C-130 series transport aircraft, but it was also a little surprised.

Pezos area.

"Red hawk-002" is 500 meters away from the surface of Mars. However, its speed is still amazing. It exceeds the speed of sound. The atmosphere of Mars is thin, and there is not enough speed. Such a large aircraft loses control in minutes.

However, "Red Hawk" is about to arrive at the established landing area, it must be time to land immediately.

At the same time when the spacecraft began to slow down, several sub engines in the belly of the spaceship spewed out fire tongues to push the huge spaceship upward, causing the "Red Hawk 2" to decelerate and still descend horizontally.
