Chapter 1270： soviet came

The moon, the closest planet to humans!

At the beginning, mankind launched a vigorous project to explore the moon, which was a product of a specific period of the Cold War. After that, the operation to detect the moon disappeared, leaving only a lot of mysteries.

Now, the Soviets, will continue to develop the moon!

The Dhahran Space Launch Base is at a tense moment. Outside, a huge Energy rocket is standing there!

In the launch hall, there were crowds of people, and several foreign astronauts were blaming themselves at this time.

If it wasn't for the last minute, their physical test was not good enough, they would have had a chance to be the first astronauts to land on the moon, and to step on the moon with the Soviet astronauts!

It's a pity, wait for the next chance!

French astronaut Thomas was sitting on a chair and silently watching the screen in front of him. At this time, the countdown to the launch of the rocket had entered! He was very envious.

When the sound of ignition sounded, the white smoke produced by the fiery flames filled the entire big screen, and the energy rocket flew towards the sky!

Moon landing spacecraft, successfully launched!

Relying on the powerful thrust, there is no need for complicated maneuvers to change orbits at all. The Energy rocket can directly bring the moon landing spacecraft to the lunar orbit!

When the secondary rocket ignited and fell off, the lunar module finally unfolded in space.

Compared with the Apollo that landed on the moon in the United States, the structure of the Soviet lunar module is very different.

The American Apollo is just a vehicle that travels back and forth between the Earth and the lunar orbit. At the top of the Apollo, there is also a docking lunar module. The Apollo spacecraft cannot directly land on the moon, and the lunar module needs to go up. , During this period, the Apollo spacecraft flew in lunar orbit, and then the lunar module took off to lunar orbit and docked with the Apollo spacecraft.

Now, the Soviet Union has mastered the key technology of nuclear power engines, and has greatly simplified the structure of the moon landing spacecraft. There is no need to do so much. When it comes to Earth orbit, it will not continue to descend into the atmosphere, but will stay on the Mir space station. In the future, the next batch of personnel will go directly to the moon from Mir.

In this way, all the loads of the lunar module have been effectively used, so this lunar module with a total weight of 50 tons can accommodate 5 astronauts!

At the same time, they will also be the first permanent personnel to enter the lunar base!

Just two days before the Dhahran base launched this energy number, at the Baikonur launch base, an energy number rocket took off early with the initial advance base, and landed accurately at the Andre delineation. On the Jinghai base of the , now, just waiting for them to pass!

These 5 astronauts are the early pioneers. They will build a base enough for 50 people to work on the moon, and build a prototype of a long-term manned base!

At the same time, among the five astronauts, there is also a woman!

Svetlana Savitskaya, famous in the Soviet Union, she is a Soviet athlete and cosmonaut, the creator of the racing flight record and the holder of the highest flying record, and the second female astronaut in the world. Member and the world's first female spacewalker, two-time hero of the Soviet Union, Svetlana's record, so to speak, is unprecedented.

She has loved flying since she was a child. Before she became an astronaut, she was a test pilot in the Yakelev Design Bureau. The sky could no longer satisfy her. She was very eager for government space, so from 1980, she was selected and transferred to Soviet astronauts have entered space twice, in 1982 on the "Soyuz" tm-7 and in 1984 on the "Soyuz" tm-12.

Meanwhile, on her second flight, she also performed the most dangerous spacewalk, setting a new record!

In later history, after these two flights, she did not go to space again. She married a year later until the disintegration of the Soviet Union and began to experience politics.

And now, Svetlana, who loves the aerospace industry, continues to conquer space, and, this time, she is going to conquer the moon with four companions!

If a woman wants to conquer space, she needs to pay more than a man. At the same time, a woman's mind is meticulous and has advantages in many cases. For example, Svetlana's mission is to be the pilot of the lunar module!

That is to say, if there is an accident during the flight of the spacecraft and manual control is required, Svetlana needs to do it herself, operate the aircraft, and finally stay on the moon!

Of course, this possibility is very small, the Soviet electronic technology is already quite good enough to make this spacecraft achieve automatic driving!

After flying away from the earth, the long-lost sense of weightlessness reappeared. The commander of this flight, Onufrenko, an excellent Soviet astronaut with several space experiences, looked through the porthole and looked at the closer and closer in the distance. planet.

"Moon, here we come!" Everyone made such a call in their hearts.

It seems that there is something there, just waiting for them to arrive!

At this moment, Onuflenko was looking forward to it in his heart.

Except for one novice, the other four are veterans. They were active in space for a while. After the spacecraft flew past the Lagrangian point, it began to accelerate toward the moon!

"Prepare to start the rocket brake," Onuflenko shouted. If you continue to fly, you will pass by the moon and fly to more distant space. You must slow down to be captured by the gravity of the moon!

slow down! Under the thrust of several small engines, the attitude of the lunar spacecraft was adjusted, and the tail nozzle of the nuclear power engine spewed milky white hydrogen vapor according to the preset command.

The spacecraft began to decelerate, decelerate, and soon, it was captured by the gravity of the moon and became a spacecraft flying around the moon!

"Svetlana, it's up to you now," Onuflenko said.

"Understood." Sitting in her own seat, Svetlana was engrossed. Get ready to go to the moon, and be ready for a human pilot in the event of a system error!

The moon, after being silent for more than ten years, finally welcomed a group of visitors again!

The moon landing spacecraft of dozens of tons is more than 30 meters long. At this time, the main engine at the bottom and the attitude adjustment engine on the side are being carefully adjusted according to the requirements of the landing procedure!

Moon, here comes the Soviets!
