Chapter 668: The Unattainable Distance

Chapter 668 The elusive distance

"Yao Yao, look, the lunar rover seems to be coming to meet us."

Xu You jumped slightly and jumped more than one meter high. This allowed Xu You to watch the distant scene with a better field of vision.

Lu Zhiyao also imitated Xu You and tried to jump lightly.

This feeling is a bit like playing on a trampoline in a Blue Star amusement park. It gives people the elasticity of a spring and does not bear a large force when landing.

"Well, I also saw our lunar rover coming." Lu Zhiyao said.

At this time, the astronauts also successfully connected with Xu You and Lu Zhiyao's radios and began the conversation process.

"Academician Xu, Teacher Lu, please wait where you are. We expect to arrive in five minutes."

"Okay, received."

Five minutes later, four astronauts drove three Golden Rabbit-1 lunar rovers to the landing location of the lunar module.

"Academician Xu, Teacher Lu, welcome you two to the moon!"

Everyone greeted us warmly, shook hands, and took a few photos as a souvenir.

Although the news that Xu You came to the moon will not be announced to the public in a short time, it will definitely leave some commemorations.

One day in the future, these precious images will become very beautiful memories.

After completing a simple photo session, an astronaut said:

"Academician Xu, Teacher Lu, please get on this lunar rover."

"Okay, thank you."

With that said, Xu You and Lu Zhiyao walked towards one of the lunar rovers, opened the door and climbed up.

The four astronauts just drove three Golden Rabbit lunar rovers, and one lunar rover was specially reserved for Xu You and Lu Zhiyao.

In this way, six people rode the lunar rover and drove towards the nearby lunar scientific research station.

On the road, a few people were walking and chatting, and the atmosphere was not that serious.

"I never thought that Academician Xu would come to the moon one day. I still remember that when we set off, Academician Xu personally gave us a ride," said an astronaut.

This was not the first time that Xu You and these astronauts met. They had communicated several times before and were considered old friends.

"Yeah, I never thought before that I would have such an opportunity one day. I feel very honored to be able to set foot on the moon like everyone else."

While chatting, Xu You brought up the topic of astronauts’ life on the moon.

"We have been living on the moon for several months. I wonder how you feel?"

"Overall, I feel pretty good. I am much happier than the astronauts who were on the space station before. When I was at the scientific research station, I no longer had to face the state of weightlessness. I could also grow some fresh vegetables and improve my food.

Eat those compressed foods every day..."

With existing technology, astronauts can already live a relatively happy life in space.

"Of course, there are some difficult places. You have to wear a spacesuit to work outside the scientific research station every day, and you often face changes in gravity, which is quite a test on your body. But compared to the longing for my hometown and relatives in my heart,

These physical sufferings are nothing."

It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine the psychological feeling of living on an alien planet. This feeling is far more unbearable than living in a foreign country.

From the moon, you can see distant blue stars, but it is an inaccessible distance.

Although with current technology, it is not that difficult to go back and forth, as long as there is nothing special, astronauts cannot easily leave the moon.

"The feeling of missing my hometown and relatives... is indeed very tortured," Xu Youxin said.

Although Xu You had just landed on the moon, he could truly understand this feeling.

Compared with the sea level, this is a more distant "escape".

After thinking for a while, Xu You said:

"Our aerospace technology is developing very fast. Soon, there will be more spacecraft and more convenient commuting methods. I believe that in the future, everyone will have a fixed vacation and can often travel to and from the moon and the blue star.

"

Today's aerospace fighters have used controllable nuclear fusion technology. Theoretically, the fuel cost is relatively low, but because the number of aerospace fighters is too small and their value is very expensive, they cannot allow astronauts to travel frequently.

When the cost of air and space fighter aircraft is cheap enough and the number is large enough, air and space fighter aircraft will be as common as airplanes and cars, and they will not be so expensive to use.

After hearing Xu You's words, everyone felt hope ignited in their hearts. After all, Xu You is a leader in the world's aerospace field, and his words are very weighty.

"We are very relieved when Academician Xu says this! As long as we have the opportunity to return to Blue Star once or twice a year, we will feel very satisfied."

On the way, Xu You was also feeling the feeling of riding on the Golden Rabbit-1 lunar rover.

This lunar rover has indeed shown very ideal performance. It will not feel any bumps when driving on the uneven road on the moon.

After several hours of travel, several people arrived at a nearby scientific research station.

According to the plan before arriving, Xu You will not go to the black hole immediately. Instead, he will inspect the scientific research station for a few days before going to the black hole.

After all, it was a mission that might have no results. Before embarking on this mission, Xu You still had to fulfill as many wishes as possible, including an inspection of the moon.

Several people got off the lunar rover. The astronauts stationed at the scientific research station had been waiting outside for some time and greeted Xu You and Lu Zhiyao enthusiastically.

After entering the scientific research station, Xu You did not feel the change in gravity.

Xu You knew that this was a protective setting within the scientific research station. When personnel entered or exited, the artificial gravity system would gently change the acceleration of gravity.

Sudden changes in gravity will pose a great challenge to the human body, so the artificial gravity system will slowly increase the gravity until it finally reaches the same gravity acceleration as the Blue Star.

Unknowingly, Xu You felt the increasing gravity of his own body, and felt like he was back on the blue star again.

The construction of the lunar scientific research station is better than expected. When resting here, you can even experience various entertainment projects on the Blue Star, which will not make people feel so bored.

Over the past few days, Xu You and Lu Zhiyao personally participated in some lunar inspection work, which was considered to have fulfilled some of their wishes.

At this time, it is time to complete the most important task.

"It's about sixty kilometers away from the Black Hole, and it takes about three hours to drive. If we're ready, let's set off."
