"Professor Xu, people from Sam Space Agency just wanted to talk to you again and said they have something important to tell you."

Xu You continued to pay attention to the various data of Starry Sky 1 and replied:

"I'm busy with something right now, so I don't have time to talk to them right now. We'll talk about it after our mission to land on the moon is completed."

Xu You thought to himself that if Sam Space Agency found him again at this time, it was probably because the last incident had already come to an end.

However, even if they are willing to release some information from the Apollo program, the work on the moon landing project is not as important as the current work.

"Professor Xu, we know that your energy is here now, so we rejected them first. But they said that it doesn't matter if you are busy, just let us pass on the news to you."

Listening to the staff's words, Xu You understood what he meant.

"So, Sam Space Agency has relayed what they want to say, right?"

"Yes, Professor Xu. They told us that the far side of the moon is dangerous and we must not let our astronauts go there."

"Um?"

Hearing these words, Xu You suddenly looked stunned.

Immediately afterwards, Xu You thought quickly about why Sam Space Agency was telling him this at this time.

"The far side of the moon...does have some secrets that we haven't discovered yet."

Mentioning the far side of the moon, Xu You couldn't help but frown.

Just relying on the information that Xu You can currently obtain, it is impossible to fully understand the far side of the moon.

Because of the Earth's attraction to the Moon, the far side of the Moon has always been a side we cannot see.

So far, it is only possible to gain a rough understanding of the far side of the moon through the information sent back by some detectors.

"No, in addition to the real dangers, Sam Space Agency must have some secrets it hides."

And these secrets are definitely things they don't want us to discover.

Thinking of this, Xu You felt that our astronauts should not be allowed to easily set foot on the back of the moon.

But at the same time, it also aroused Xu You's interest in exploring the far side of the moon.

"Professor Xu, what do you think about this matter?"

"I suggest that we don't conduct astronauts' lunar backside exploration this time. This is not a necessary project in the first place. There is no need to rush to take this risk when there is insufficient information and safety cannot be guaranteed."

"Okay, Professor Xu, I will convey it to you right now."

According to the project team's plan, the detection of the far side of the moon is not part of the necessary plan for this lunar landing.

Even without the sudden reminder from Sam Space Agency, we probably would not be in a hurry to set foot on the back of the moon.

Thinking of this, Xu You continued to pay attention to the data on the big screen while thinking about ways to explore the back of the moon.

"If there is really some kind of danger, then the astronauts should not take the risk first. Due to the limited performance of our lunar rover, it is impossible to undertake all the exploration missions on the back of the moon. Next, we must use the lunar rover with better performance to

A vehicle or other detection instrument must be sent to the lunar surface.”

Only when Xu You knows enough about the information on the far side of the moon can he feel confident letting astronauts go there in person.

…………

A few days later.

Starry Sky-1 has successfully completed multiple orbit changes and is finally running stably in the lunar orbit.

Soon, we will enter the final stage of landing on the moon.

"We can see that Starry Sky-1 is now only 200 kilometers away from the lunar surface. Next, the spacecraft will continue to slow down and finally land on the lunar surface. Let us look forward to this moment together."

The several-day live broadcast of the moon landing did not dampen the audience's enthusiasm, but made them look forward to the final moment of the moon landing even more.

At this time, hundreds of millions of people around the world were watching the live broadcast about Starry Sky One.

Even in some areas, it is late at night, but it has not affected everyone's enthusiasm for watching the live broadcast.

"Look, the three astronauts are waving to us. At this time, the distance between the three of them and us is 380,000 kilometers. This distance is far greater than the distance between any two places on the earth.

Much further. A round trip of the electromagnetic wave signal also takes 2.6 seconds."

From the relaxed expressions on the faces of the three astronauts, it is difficult to tell how difficult the mission they are currently performing is.

Only Sam Space Agency has some experience in landing on the moon, not to mention that this happened decades ago.

No matter how well prepared you are before, it is impossible to say that you are not a little nervous at this time.

"We see that the two astronauts have come out of the manned spacecraft and entered the lunar lander. Next, the lander will ignite and slow down, and finally land smoothly on the moon."

The attentive audience noticed a detail at this time.

That is, all three astronauts did not enter the lunar lander, but one astronaut stayed behind to take care of them in the manned spacecraft.

The manned spacecraft will continue to stay in the near-lunar orbit. Once there is any problem with the two astronauts who landed on the moon or the lunar module, it will be convenient for timely support.

In addition, when returning, the lunar module will still dock with the manned spacecraft again. People must be left on the manned spacecraft. Otherwise, the safety of the manned spacecraft cannot be guaranteed.

Two hundred kilometers, one hundred and fifty kilometers, one hundred kilometers, fifty kilometers...

As the distance between the lunar module and the lunar surface gets closer and closer, the lunar module also continues to slow down.

Eventually, the lunar module will land on the lunar surface at a very slow speed to maximize the safety of the lunar module and astronauts.

"Look! Our lunar module is already very close to the moon's surface!"

From the perspective of the lunar module, the rocks on the moon's surface and its pitted surface can be clearly seen.

Through AI calculations, the lunar module will automatically detect the ground below and try to find a flat location for landing.

If the landing location is not chosen well, it may cause damage to the lunar module and even affect the subsequent return journey.

When the lunar module was very close to the lunar surface, it still maintained a relatively fast speed.

At this moment, the lunar module suddenly exerted a downward force, causing the lunar module to decelerate a lot in an instant, and landed on a flat position at a speed that was almost static relative to the moon's surface.

After seeing the lunar module land safely, all the viewers watching the live broadcast celebrated excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, the door of the lunar module slowly opened.

Two astronauts wearing extravehicular suits stepped out of the lunar module, holding bright red flags in their hands.
Chapter completed!
