Chapter 193 Lunar Rover

This sentence is both a show off and a threat.

Of course Qin Tao knows that foreigners are nothing good. This guy came here to ask for cooperation. In fact, he wants to dominate and seize power. What if he fails? What should he do? Will he mobilize European power to block the starship?

company?

Americans never like to be the first, but they like to encourage their younger brothers. Now, the ESA may be deceived by the Americans and make some mistakes. Qin Tao has to give them a vaccination.

If you want to cause trouble for Starship Company, you have to see if the capital behind it agrees. Our Starship Company is not alone. We have obtained a large amount of funds, which come from many companies, especially the Global Five Hundred

powerful!

Hum, don't even open your eyes to see who is in charge of the so-called democratic country.

Joseph was speechless for a moment and could only watch Qin Tao and Max walking towards the door. When the two were about to leave, he realized: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Max, please stay, we still have projects to discuss.

, we would like to ask your help to carry a lunar probe!"

A smile appeared on Max's face. Humph, the French are nothing. I'm not even afraid of Americans, so I'll give you face? Since you're here to ask for help, then do your job well!

"Of course. The detector is charged based on weight. The weight of one kilogram is two million US dollars."

One kilogram and two million! Joseph's eyes widened: "Mr. Max, isn't this too expensive?"

"Expensive? Qiao Busi, who is currently flying in the sky, weighs 60 kilograms, and the cost is 100 million. When converted, the cost per kilogram is 1.67 million U.S. dollars. Moreover, it is only orbiting the moon, not landing on the moon! I'll give you two hundred

The quotation of 10,000 US dollars is for the sake of colleagues. If ordinary tourists go to the moon, it will cost more than 200 million US dollars, and the cost per kilogram will reach more than 3 million US dollars. Are you still not satisfied? Then launch it yourself.

"

Joseph stopped talking.

"This quotation will last until the end of the year, and the price will increase next year. If you want to cooperate, you should do it as soon as possible." After Max finished speaking, he waved his hand: "Goodbye!"

It's really time to leave this time. There is no need to talk nonsense with these guys anymore. Let them think about it for themselves.

Looking at the two people leaving, Joseph clenched his fists and said, "Humph, what's so great about landing on the moon? We, the European Space Agency, are also going to land on the moon!"

This idea came to his mind for a few seconds, and he reluctantly gave up. No, even if he wanted to, the other member states didn't want to. Everyone didn't agree. Meetings and discussions were just quarrels, and nothing could be argued for in the end.

ESA has declined, and the future belongs to Starship Corporation!

In space, the Dragon spacecraft was still flying around the moon and had already reached the front side of the moon. Qiao Busi set up a telescope next to the porthole to observe the moon.

In fact, the spacecraft can carry advanced observation equipment and can accurately observe the lunar surface. They are not only flying around the moon this time, but also surveying and mapping the lunar surface and mastering first-hand information to lay the foundation for the subsequent moon landing.

As for Qiao Busi's telescope, it is of course a privilege of being a tourist. Observing the moon's surface on a screen is definitely not as good as observing it directly with a telescope.

"Dear viewers, now we are about to fly over the Tranquility Sea. I will carefully search the Apollo moon landing sites to see if there is anything there!" Qiao Busi turned to the camera and said, and then continued to put his eyes on the telescope.

.

Although the moon can also be observed with an astronomical telescope on the earth, it is completely different from observing near the moon. The moon has occupied his entire field of vision and looks extremely huge. The pits and various terrains on the surface of the moon can be seen.

Clearly.

"I have found the Sea of ​​Tranquility! I have seen the Sabine D crater, but I have found nothing so far!"

"We are flying over the Tranquility Sea and still haven't found anything!"

Ten minutes later.

"We have completely flown over the Tranquility Sea. I didn't see any traces of humans, I didn't see the lower stages of the Apollo spacecraft, and I didn't see the Stars and Stripes Banner!" Qiao Busi turned to look at the camera, but this time

It was a little more violent, and as a result, his body rotated backwards and flew out. He grabbed the top handrail to control his body. This action showed that he was in space. It was true that he was on the moon.

As for the moon landing site, I don’t know.

This live broadcast spread all over the world and instantly became the hottest news.

Qiao Busi searched the lunar surface but could not find the Apollo 11 lunar landing site!

Didn't see the Stars and Stripes, it wasn't occupied at all!

What kind of occupation? According to international law, the moon belongs to the whole world, and it definitely does not belong to a certain person or country!

Some people also defended it on the Internet.

There was no Stars and Stripes because it was placed too close to the spacecraft, so when the spacecraft took off, it overturned the Stars and Stripes!

Aldrin said this in an interview after he came back.

Yes, it was indeed blown away!

That shit flew up. Even if there isn’t the Stars and Stripes, there should be the ruins of the spaceship, right? And what about the feces? You licking dog knows how to kneel down and lick Americans!

If you curse, I will report you!

The Internet is abuzz. Considering Qiao Busi's authority, more people are beginning to doubt the authenticity of the Apollo moon landing. If the Apollo moon landing really never happened, then according to NASA's bullshit law, Starship

The company can claim to own the entire moon!

In a room at the Aerospace Measurement and Control Center, Qin Tao and Max were also discussing this matter.

"The magnification of his telescope was too small and we were flying too fast, so it is normal that he did not find it." Max said: "However, these are not enough. I think we still need to continue to deal with it."

"How to deal with it?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "After we can land on the moon, send people to these ruins and destroy them all," Max said.

Qin Tao agreed with the bad idea proposed by Max: "Okay, of course. No matter what NASA claims, it is useless. If we say the Apollo moon landing program is fake, then it is fake!"

Those so-called laws are all deceiving themselves. Who can really get there will have the right to speak. Although NASA also wants to return to the moon as soon as possible, their system determines that they will not act too fast. Wait until they can return to the moon.

When you go to the moon, there will be traces of Starship Corporation activities everywhere.

"However, it is not easy to move around on the lunar surface. Mr. Qin, in our next activities, we will also need a lunar rover and a lunar base." Max said: "These require advanced technology."

Lunar rover!

If you want to carry out long-distance activities on the moon, you need suitable means of transportation, and the lunar rover is one of them. In history, the first lunar rover was owned by Lao Maozi. On November 17, 1970, "Moon" 17

The probe sent the world's first unmanned "Lunar Rover" 1 to the moon. It traveled 10.5 kilometers and inspected 80,000 square meters of the lunar surface.

The subsequent Lunar Rover 2 traveled 37 kilometers and sent back 88 lunar panoramas to the earth.

Wait, didn’t Lao Maozi never land on the moon? That of course refers to manned landing on the moon. Although Lao Maozi’s people did not go up, the probe did go up a lot.

Therefore, Lao Maozi knows best whether the Apollo moon landing program is true or false. At that time when the space race was at its fiercest, if the Americans cheated, Lao Maozi would definitely be the first to stand up and accuse.

Even now, if the Americans want to clear themselves of the accusation of fraud, it is most appropriate for the old man to stand up and testify. However, how can the old man help the Americans? The whole world is accusing Apollo of fraud, and it is too late for the old man to be happy.

This shows that I did not lose the original space race.

The Americans' lunar rover came later. On July 31, 1971, "Apollo 15" astronauts Davis R. Scott and James B. Irving conducted the first human lunar rover.

This convertible lunar rover is larger and can allow two people to sit on it and drive it. The four tires left traces on the lunar surface. In the photos taken, it also became one of the evidences of the moon landing fraud: How could these rubber tires be possible?

Walking on the surface of the moon must be fake!

The herringbone anti-skid structure and the bulging shape of the whole body really look like rubber tires. Of course, these are all terms in street stall literature.

In order to walk long distances on the moon, the lunar rover wheels prepared by the Yankees are of course not made of rubber, but made of steel wire. The four wheels are divided into two layers, the outer diameter is 81 cm, the inner diameter is 65 cm, and the outer wheel is 23 cm wide.

Centimeter, made of 800 strands of galvanized steel wire, with a diameter of 0.083 centimeters per strand. At that time, special grinding tools and pure hand-weaving were used for reliability. For an Apollo moon landing plan, the country's technical strength was mobilized to

No joke.

As for those herringbone anti-slip structures, they are actually 46 pairs of V-shaped intersecting metal sheets, which can obtain better grip and traction, and also provide certain structural reinforcement. The inner and outer two-layer structure is for better buffering and protection.

Aluminum alloy wheels inside.

Now, the Starship Company is also going to the moon. It still has sufficient funds and a large number of scientists. Of course, they also want to build their own lunar rover.

How to build this lunar rover? How to make it look like science fiction?

"For the power system, we decided to use nuclear batteries, including the lunar base, which also needs to be powered by nuclear power plants." Max said: "We don't have these technologies ourselves, and we hope the group will provide them to us."

On the moon, nuclear power is the best choice. A 1-megawatt nuclear power bank can work for more than ten years. On cold nights, only the energy provided by nuclear power bank can keep the base warm.

As for solar cells and the like, they are only supplementary at most and cannot become the main force. After all, the efficiency is too low and the energy density is too low.

"It is necessary to use nuclear power plants on the lunar base. Do you also plan to use nuclear batteries for this lunar rover?" Qin Tao asked curiously.

"Yeah, besides nuclear batteries, what else can meet our needs?" Max said: "What should we do if the car runs out of power halfway through driving? How should we spend the long night?"

In space exploration, a lot of equipment uses nuclear batteries. Even many satellites use nuclear batteries in order to pursue high power and durability.

Nuclear batteries are different from nuclear reactors. Its structure is very simple and its working principle is also very simple. It uses the principle of thermoelectric power generation. The heat emitted by radioactive isotopes passes through some special semiconductors, such as bismuth telluride and lead telluride.

Germanium-silicon alloys and selenium compounds, etc., will form a potential difference between its two ends, which is to provide electricity.

Its power is very small, but its lifespan is very long, so after it was invented, it was used in many places, such as pacemakers. In the past, there was no suitable energy source, so we could only connect the wires to the outside, which could easily lead to infection.

Later, nuclear batteries were used, and one operation could work for more than ten years.

There was also a radioisotope device on the Apollo spacecraft. It was initially a heating furnace with a thermal power of 15 watts, used for heating on the moon. Later it became a power generation device, code-named SNAP-27A, with an output power of 63.5 watts.

The entire device weighs 31 kilograms and has a design life of one year.

"One day on the moon is equivalent to 27 days on the earth, and half of the time is night. No battery can last for such a long time. If we want the lunar rover to work stably, we can only use

Nuclear battery." Max said: "But after I learned about it, I found that we do not have nuclear battery technology in our country."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ah San has experienced this kind of pain. Before entering the moonlit night, he fully charged the batteries of Chandrayaan-3 and Pragyan lunar rover, and

The solar panels were pointed in the direction of the rising sun, trying to wait for a miracle to happen. However, when the next sun rose, they could not wake up anyway. In the long night, their equipment was completely dead.

The Chang'e-4 and Yutu-2 lunar rovers launched by Dongfang have been able to operate normally after many moonlit nights because they were equipped with nuclear batteries imported from Lao Maozi. This is the difference.

The nuclear power plant used in the lunar base is easy to say. Mingzhou Group has relevant technology. The compact nuclear power plant is very suitable, but what about the nuclear battery on the lunar rover?

Max was a little worried. Even though the model was displayed, the relevant experiments hadn’t started yet!

"We don't have it in our country, don't they have it at Lao Maozi?" Qin Tao said, "Just buy it from them!"

Max's eyes lit up, how could he have forgotten this? Lao Maozi has it there! He is a Westerner and always wants to obtain technology from the West, but he didn't expect that Lao Maozi also has it!

"We can buy from them, or we can poach people from there, directly bring over the people and technology, and then we can produce it ourselves. These are not problems." Qin Tao said: "As for the shape of the lunar rover, Max,

Do you understand our Eastern culture?"

Max was curious: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

"Have you seen the Terracotta Warriors and Horses?"

"Saw it once."

"So, have you seen the bronze chariot and horses inside?"

"A car with four horses in front and one person sitting in the back? There seems to be an umbrella on top."

"That's called a canopy. Well, an umbrella is an umbrella. Max, since you have used our oriental elements in the entire action plan, how about using the design concept of the bronze chariot and horse on this lunar rover?"

"You mean the four-legged robot that drives our lunar rover?"

Qin Tao quickly shook his head. The quadruped robot was indeed awesome, but that thing was mainly used for mountain climbing and performing. It would be too wasteful to use it on the moon. It would be better to use ordinary wheels.

"Our car is still electric." Qin Tao introduced: "It's just that there is a set of big wheels in the middle, just like the wheels of a bronze chariot and horse. There are a set of small wheels at the front and rear, with a big cover on top."

Qin Tao was painting while talking, and Max took a serious look at it: "Why does it look like a tractor to me?"

The small wheel in the front and the big wheel in the middle, isn't this just a tractor? As for the small wheel in the back, it is the agricultural implement to be towed.

Qin Tao was speechless, we have such a lofty design concept, but you said it was a tractor?

"Let's first talk about the canopy above the head. It is covered with solar panels. Although it is a nuclear battery, it can save money. When the sun is shining, it can still generate more electricity. At the same time, it can also block the strong sun during the day.

Radiation can also lower the operating temperature of our instruments and equipment."

The moon will be as cold as minus 200 degrees at night, and after seeing sunlight during the day, it will heat up to more than 100 degrees. The temperature difference is very large. It is still very beneficial to put the instrument under this cover.

"People sit in the front, and there is an instrument and equipment platform in the back. You can put instruments, ore and soil mined on the moon, etc. The entire vehicle has a low center of gravity, drives very smoothly, and can be folded completely."

Max got serious. This design sounded really good.

"As for the control device, it is carried out through an operating lever. This operating lever is in the front and middle, making it convenient for two people to switch operations at any time. Of course, it can also drive automatically."

"There are hub motors on all the wheels, but the hub motor of the main wheel is mainly used. By the way, this wheel hub can also be made into the shape of a Tai Chi diagram, which is full of our oriental elements."

Max was not convinced at first, but with Qin Tao's introduction, Max suddenly felt that this plan seemed very good.

"Mr. Qin, I didn't expect you to be a talented designer. I think this plan is very good! However, our Starship Company may not have the spare capacity to develop it. Can it be handed over to Golden Sun Motor Company?"

The lunar rover is definitely an electric vehicle, but it uses nuclear batteries.

Qin Tao nodded: "Okay."

"By the way, our lunar rover needs a resounding name."

"Wangshu Chariot or Jade Rabbit, whichever name you think is better, use whichever name you think is better." Qin Tao replied.

Max thought briefly: "I think the first name is better."

"Why?"

"Because I don't understand."
