The rover was very quiet. After Dr. Anne switched the call channel on the opposite side, she could no longer hear any sound - her teammates also changed the channel.
This made her feel a strong sense of loneliness and uneasiness, especially when she saw the mouth of the astronaut next to her moving and she couldn't hear any sound.
So she could only hold her luggage quietly, silently calculating her oxygen in her heart, and simulating the scene of greeting each other after meeting.
Of course, she didn't wonder why it was her - because it was easy to guess that the only people she could connect with the country that invited the moon number, or even the country that invited the moon number, were her undergraduate teachers and master's tutors.
, Professor Huo Laien.
Suddenly, she seemed to hear something.
"Dr. Anne."
Anne turned her head and saw that the astronaut beside her had taken off his helmet and was looking at her with a smile.
"Ah! Hello, Dr. Tang."
Annie responded quickly. When she saw that the other person had taken off her helmet, she immediately turned off the oxygen, took off her helmet, and exhaled heavily.
"Haha, come on, bring this." The other person handed her a pair of headphones.
"There is simultaneous interpretation here, but it is not of Aita's level. The translation may be a bit stiff." Dr. Tang Wenjun motioned for her to put on the headphones and switched to Chinese: "Can you understand what we are saying now?
"
"Yes!" But then, Annie immediately became nervous again and said a little awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I don't know Chinese well..."
"It's okay, we can usually understand English, as long as you don't speak too fast." Tang Wenjun laughed: "Actually, with simultaneous interpretation and real-life scenes, it is quite easy to learn Chinese."
"Yeah! I'll try my best to learn!" Annie nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.
After the exchange, she felt much less awkward and nervous.
Moreover, we learned during the exchange that Dr. Tang Wenjun also majored in astronomy, which happened to be consistent with her mission for this trip.
As soon as the two majors met, the two started talking about more topics. Especially when they talked about the observation of the unknown "black hole", they found that many of their views were surprisingly consistent.
…
"oh my god!"
During the chat, the lunar rover gradually approached the Yaoyue No.
In front of us are densely packed solar panels and two factory buildings the size of classrooms. At this moment, two excavators are working, constantly digging up the lunar soil and sending it to the conveyor belt.
In addition, several houses were completed one after another next to the hill-like Yaoyue No. 1, and astronauts were constantly coming in and out at this time.
Dr. Anne held the armrest, her eyes widened, and she was extremely shocked.
"You...are you already refining helium 3?"
"Yes." Tang Wenjun smiled calmly.
"Are all those solar panels supporting the operation of this factory?"
"No, the solar panels will also provide electricity to assist the power supply system of the spacecraft."
"Isn't it said that refining helium 3 requires very high temperatures?"
"Well, it seems that the factory uses the latest magnetic screening method, which can complete screening and refining at a lower temperature. For details, you can ask your colleagues in the factory."
Dr. Anne took a deep breath, her eyes showing extremely complex emotions.
Since the landing site of Artemis was not on the same level as the Yao Yue, they could only see half of the Yao Yue's hull clearly through the telescope in the cabin.
Of course, um... no one actually wants to see it.
In the past few days, only when the geology team went out, they could observe the progress of Yaoyue, but they did not discuss it, and even if it was discussed, Anne would not care.
But as a member of the moon landing team, she must know what Artemis' mission plan is this time.
This time, the original plan was to prepare for subsequent development and the establishment of a permanent scientific research base.
Therefore, everyone was frustrated when the supply cabin was lost.
But now, when Annie sees the scale of the Yaoyue base and the spaceship that looks like a hill...
She knows that even if the supply cabin is not lost, even if all tasks are completed...
The mission of Artemis is not as good as 1/10 of the mission of Yaoyue!
In silence, she followed Tang Wenjun and put on his helmet.
…
When she stepped onto the gangway and the air hit her face, Annie also felt the feeling of stepping on solid ground.
She knew that she had walked into an artificial gravity field.
She suppressed her excitement and followed Tang Wenjun into the second door.
"You can change out of your space suit."
"Um."
Annie took off her helmet and breathed in the fresh air in the cabin. Then, with the help of Tang Wenjun, she took off her heavy spacesuit.
The third door slowly opened.
A middle-aged man in his late fifties and a group of young astronauts were standing in the hall outside the door, greeting them with smiles.
"Dr. Anne, I am Huo Liang, the scientific advisor of Yaoyue. Welcome to Yaoyue."
…
Ten hours later, Annie bid farewell to Tang Wenjun and other temporary colleagues and returned to her room No. 066.
The room is very large, covering an area of 5 square meters. In addition to a bed, there is also a space chair that is fixed on the floor and can move forward and backward and adjust the backrest.
In front of the space chair is a desk about 60 centimeters wide against the wall, with various sockets reserved on the wall.
Annie placed a Yinta system laptop assigned to her by Yaoyuehao on her desk, and then connected the power supply and network cable.
She has already studied the Yinta system.
After quickly opening the document, she put her hands on the keyboard.
After a few seconds of silence, she wrote down today's diary.
"2026, 11 p.m. East Eighth District time."
"I just experienced the most incredible day of my life. This is my fantasy journey."
"I saw with my own eyes that humans built factories on the moon and began to industrially refine helium 3, which is known as the ultimate energy source."
"I set foot on the world's first helium-3 fusion engine spacecraft, and enjoyed the gravity from the earth on the moon."
"Of course, I also enjoyed the food from the East - I never thought that I could see the profession of chef in space - everyone on the moon on the Yaoyuer enjoyed the same food as on the earth.
The food and the way to eat.”
"I never thought that rice could be so delicious, ribs could be so delicious, carrots and green vegetables are so delicate, and even spring onions exude a refreshing fragrance."
"I didn't expect that Yinta's system would be so efficient, and Aita's friendliness and intelligence are so fascinating."
"Of course, I didn't expect that when facing uninvited guests from afar, every crew member and companion here would be so kind and friendly, which made all my previous restraints and uneasiness disappear."
“In just a few hours, I integrated into the team and started my research.”
"I believe that what I experienced today on Yaoyue will be the experience of every astronaut and scientific researcher around the world tomorrow."
…
Looking at the diary, Dr. Anne smiled and made a happy gesture towards the camera of the notebook.
"Aita, take pictures."
"Take a few more pictures."
After selecting the photos she likes best, Anne embeds the photos into the document.
Then, she opened Twitter.
Just when she was about to click publish, she paused and wrote her signature.
