"Viewers, our Houyi is about to arrive on the moon. We can clearly see the moon's surface through the pictures. The exciting moment is coming. We are finally going to land on the moon!"
It was still ten o'clock in the morning when we set off, and it was now already afternoon, and more and more people were watching the live broadcast, because Houyi had arrived at the moon and was slowing down, reducing its speed enough to be captured by the moon's gravity.
An exciting moment is coming. Hundreds of millions of people in front of the TV and in the live broadcast room are paying attention to this matter.
"Family, family, we are about to reach the moon~"
"Everyone can now clearly see everything on the surface of the moon. There is no Chang'e, no moon rabbit, no sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and there is no Wu Gang who cut down the sweet-scented osmanthus tree. There are just bumps on the surface."
"At this moment, I can no longer hide the excitement in my heart, we are about to land on the moon!"
Qian Xia was very excited now. Looking at the moon outside the window, her entire field of vision was occupied. The moon has no atmosphere, and everything on its surface can be clearly seen.
"We're going to the moon~ We're going to the moon!"
"Here comes the moon!"
"Moon here we come!"
"Moon here we come!"
"Chang'e, we are here!"
"Moon Rabbit, here we come!"
"Fairy Chang'e, Zhu Bajie is here~"
In the live broadcast room, comments like this also flooded the screen. Not only the people on the Houyi were excited, but also the more than one billion people on this side of the earth.
After half an hour of deceleration, Hou Yi's speed was already very slow. The slower it got, the closer it got to the moon. Soon, Hou Yi was successfully captured by the moon's gravity and began to orbit around it.
The moon orbits the moon.
While flying around the moon, it constantly adjusts its orbit and flies around the landing site.
In the pilot and control cabins, the astronauts and scientists began to get busy.
"Reaching the intended track!"
"Smoothly connected to the lunar positioning, navigation and communication system~"
"Successfully connected to the 'Yutu' unmanned control spacecraft~"
"..."
All kinds of information began to gather continuously and were quickly reported to the Earth Command Center. Here, a large number of scientists were also extremely busy.
He quickly analyzed the situation of Houyi, calculated various possibilities, and repeatedly studied and demonstrated the plan of landing directly on the moon.
"Everything is normal, landing on the moon as planned!"
An order was sent from the Earth Control Center to Houyi in lunar orbit.
"Received moon landing order from Earth Control Center!"
"Get ready to land on the moon!"
After Jiang Peng, Meng Zilong, Liu Yuan and other scientists on the spacecraft confirmed, they began to fly the Houyi spacecraft towards the moon.
Under the powerful anti-gravity engine, the huge Houyi was like a feather without any weight, floating lightly towards the planned landing area on the moon.
As the altitude continues to decrease, everything on the moon is constantly magnified and magnified in the field of view, and then everything in the entire field of view is occupied by the surface of the moon.
This place is extremely desolate, without a trace of life. It seems to be a place of nothingness frozen in time. Everything is the same as it was tens of thousands of years ago, hundreds of thousands of years ago, or even millions of years ago.
Desolation, vastness, silence and deathly silence are not at all like what is written in fairy tales. There is nothing here except gravels of all sizes.
Houyi flew towards the Procellarum, the largest lunar sea on the surface of the moon, and prepared to land in the Procellarum area.
The so-called lunar maria does not mean that there is actually an ocean on the moon. It is called a sea because in the field of vision of early observers, these areas were darker and could not be observed clearly at that time. According to the understanding of the earth,
We know that these areas are named seas, lakes, bays, etc., and some are also called moon marshes.
Later, with the advancement of science and technology, people gradually realized that these areas were actually relatively low-lying areas on the moon, and they were vast and broad plain areas on the moon.
There are 22 recognized maria on the moon, most of which are located on the side facing the Earth.
Oceanus Procellarum is the largest of all the lunar seas, covering five million square kilometers, which is larger than half of our country.
At the same time, according to the exploration results of the 'Yuetu' unmanned exploration spacecraft launched by Xinghai Technology to the moon in advance, the resources in the Oceanus Procellarum area are extremely rich.
Not only does it contain a large amount of ilmenite, but the iron ore resources contained in the lunar basalt alone exceed 100 trillion tons, and it is basically high-grade iron ore, which can easily exhaust the iron ore resources on the earth.
In addition to iron ore, copper, aluminum, magnesium, gold, silver, manganese, etc. are extremely rich in various resources. It is definitely a natural treasure house.
Of course, the truly valuable resources on the moon are rare earths and He3.
The importance of rare earths is self-evident. It is an indispensable resource for modern electronic technology, military technology, etc. It is also extremely expensive. The various rare elements contained in it are necessities for modern technology.
As a strategic resource, the reserves of rare earths on the earth are very rare. The proven reserves of the entire earth are only 210 million tons, but the rare earth resources on the moon are.
According to the reserves currently detected by Xinghai Technology, the rare earth resource reserves on the moon exceed 100 billion tons, which is hundreds of times the reserves on the earth.
He3 is the most ideal material for nuclear fusion. During nuclear fusion, it can release powerful energy without causing any radiation hazards.
It is considered by scientists to be the most important and ideal energy source in future technology, but its reserves on the earth are very rare, and they are all in the vast sea, making it difficult to mine at all.
But on the moon, the reserves of He3 are astonishing. For every one ton of He3 on earth, the reserves on the moon exceed 1 million tons. It is hailed by scientists as the energy bank for human beings to navigate the universe in the future.
As a pioneer in lunar development, Xinghai Technology naturally wants to occupy the most resource-rich and largest area on the moon first.
The Procellarum Ocean is large enough, rich in resources, and the terrain is open and flat, so it is natural to occupy it first.
This moon is an unclaimed land, whoever takes it first will get it.
As Xinghai Technology begins to mine resources on the moon, other people will definitely come to the moon to mine resources. At that time, they will inevitably compete for the territory and resources on the moon.
Let’s occupy the biggest cake first. As for how you fight in the future, it’s your business. Xinghai Technology doesn’t bother to care.
Houyi was getting closer and closer to the moon's ground. In just a few minutes, it successfully flew from space to the moon and arrived at the scheduled landing site.
As the Houyi landed gently on the moon, everyone couldn't help but cheered and couldn't wait to look out the window. The desolate moon surface came into view, and there were gravels everywhere that had experienced countless years.
There is no water or air on the moon, so naturally there is no wind.
These gravels are always in the same place and never change.
"Earth Command Center, Earth Command Center~"
"The Hou Yi has landed successfully, the Hou Yi has landed successfully!"
"Everything is fine, everything is fine!"
"Ask for instructions, ask for instructions!"
"According to plan, execute as planned!"
As electromagnetic waves propagated in the void at the speed of light, the Houyi took action quickly after receiving the order.
The astronauts who had already put on their spacesuits were quickly checking their spacesuits and equipment in preparation for landing on the moon.
Under the gaze of everyone, the hatch of the Hou Yi slowly opened.
Astronaut Wei Wang was the first to step out of the hatch, and then, recorded by high-definition cameras and watched by more than a billion people on Earth, he gently stepped onto the lunar soil, leaving a clear footprint on it.
"Wow~"
Here at the ground control command center, when they saw the footprints left by Wei Wang, everyone in the entire hall stood up excitedly, and waves of applause continued to sound.
"yeah!"
Cheers instantly spread to every corner of China, and waves of applause spread quickly, spreading to every corner in the blink of an eye.
In the classrooms of schools, primary and secondary school students were cheering and applauding; in the streets and alleys, people stopped one after another, looking at the pictures on the big screens, standing tall with their chests proudly.
In each live broadcast room, flowers and firecrackers were blasting, various gifts made the live broadcast room bloom colorfully, and various congratulatory messages flashed on the screen.
After how many years, we Chinese descendants finally landed on the moon!
Although we are not the first to land on the moon, for us, this is already a huge progress in history. It is a moment that is always worthy of being written into history. It is the beginning of the sea of stars for us descendants of Yan and Huang!
There was also a wave of applause inside the Houyi. Everyone was cheering, applauding, and screaming with excitement. We finally landed on the moon.
The TV host's voice became hoarse due to excessive excitement. Qian Xia even shouted excitedly, shouting out the excitement in her heart.
At this moment, everyone witnessed history together and witnessed the great historical moment!
Wei Wang landed on the surface of the moon and left clear footprints. At the same time, he also took out a red flag, found a hillside location, and raised the red flag high, announcing our arrival on the moon.
When the picture was transmitted back to the earth, there were waves of applause and cheers. Everyone was cheering and celebrating. Fireworks and firecrackers resounded throughout every corner of China!
