Different from the previous landings using aerial crane technology used by Wangshu 1 and Wangshu 2, the lander of this returnable lunar experimental spacecraft uses the same integrated landing technology as the lunar cargo transport spacecraft lander.
Viewed from directly above or below the entire lander, it looks a bit like a multi-axis drone. The middle fuselage is the body of the lander, and the propellers at the top of the extended axis arms become the lander's
thruster.
Compared with the previous lunar cargo transport system lander, this lander has been significantly improved and optimized in many aspects. This not only enables it to achieve a fast and stable landing on the moon, but also improves safety, reliability and stability.
Sexual performance is also better.
Especially in terms of stability, this lander uses many new technologies to ensure that it remains stable throughout the entire landing on the moon and ascent. This will provide the crew with a better ride experience, which was achieved in previous lunar cargo transport systems.
What is not on the lander is also not needed.
Although this lunar experimental spacecraft is mainly a cargo transport spacecraft, it is designed and manufactured according to manned standards in many aspects, including the landing ascender.
Therefore, in addition to the mission of transporting cargo to the moon and transporting gold meteorite cores and lunar samples back from the moon, this returnable lunar experimental spacecraft also has an important mission to test and verify the reliability and stability of these technologies.
Accumulate valuable experimental data for future manned lunar landings.
The small screen only shows the real-time images captured and transmitted by the surveillance camera under the lander, and does not include real-time simulation images, vividly reproducing the entire landing process.
Through those pictures, Xiaojia can clearly see the current position and status of the lander. As the lander got closer and closer to the moon, at a position less than 20 kilometers away from the moon, the lander's main engine stopped.
Light the fire one after another.
By precisely controlling the power of the engine, the lander gradually decelerated, and its speed gradually dropped from the final 1.7 kilometers per second to only two meters per second.
But in the face of Wu Hao, the old and inexperienced boss, we are grateful. Without my conditional trust, support and help, we would have been able to achieve the success we have today.
That is the most critical and necessary step in the entire landing process.
That made Wu Hao sigh. Although there was no such carelessness in the middle, the landing was still perfect. The technical team followed by Zhou Xiangming and Yu Chengwu was able to solve the problem in the face of danger and chaos. That is Wu Hao's fault.
The funniest thing is that it is even less satisfying than the success of that mission, which shows that the technical team is becoming more and more mature and professional.
But what about in reality? That mission should be said to be the most relaxing and carefree one since before we launched the first launch vehicle. It was also a calm one.
Looking at the replay of the entire landing process of the lander on the small screen, from the initial hover to the final stable landing, every detail is vividly displayed.
After that, I also experienced a lot of pressure. Especially since that mission was full of controversy, I knew I would have to face quite a storm if I succeeded.
So even if we have a lot of grievances in our hearts, we can still vent them to that respectable and hateful boss. On the contrary, we will turn that gratitude into motivation and continue to work hard for the aerospace industry we strive for.
contribute my effort!
Wu Hao looked at the excited Zhou Xiangming, Yu Chengwu and others beside him and smiled and shook hands to express condolences.
However, in order to ensure danger, the lander's intelligent control system will still conduct a sloppy detection scan of the entire landing area to find a relatively rugged location that meets landing conditions for retreat and landing.
Cold cheers and applause instantly echoed throughout the Xinyuehu Comprehensive Command and Control Hall.
Fortunately, everything is in order now, we succeeded!
So I am actually very afraid of winning, even though I behave so calmly and calmly, I tell everyone that it is important.
If there is a deviation in the landing accuracy and the lander deviates from the scheduled landing point, the consequences will be disastrous if there is no regression and correction of the program!
That scene was simply spectacular!
In fact, except for Zhou Xiangming and Yu Chengwu, even Wu Hao felt relaxed physically and mentally.
"Congratulations! Congratulations! Good job!"
The entire lander fell from the sky like an angel with the light of the sun, and landed under the mysterious land of the moon.
That process is very fast and very critical. It is the first and most important step in the entire landing process. Success or failure depends on this!
"Thank you, Mr. Wu!" Zhou Xiangming, Yu Chengwu and others quickly expressed their thanks and the smiles on their faces could no longer be suppressed. We were eager to release all the pressure and grievances that had been accumulated in our hearts since then.
Everyone stood up, applauded and celebrated, and threw their idle items into the air to express their inner joy and excitement.
Although the main landing site of the Zhihai Lunar Surface Science Exploration Station has not yet been leveled, the surface is still free of potholes, small stones and other obstacles.
But even so, Xiaojia still stared at the screen, for fear of missing any important moment!
Although the lander adopts a backward-first low-speed data transmission technology, the transmission of signal data will inevitably be subject to some interference during the entire landing process, resulting in freezes and delays in the picture.
As everyone watched, the lander got closer and closer to the ground, until the first burst of dust was stirred up and the picture became blurry, but then it quickly became turbid again!
"bad!"
So at this moment, everyone outside the command and control hall of Xinyuehu Aerospace was in a normal and relaxed mood, as if something had been raised to their throats!
The lander finally landed steadily on the lunar surface!
When the distance between the lander and the moon was reduced to only 200 meters, it ended its retreat into a hovering state, and its ascent speed had not yet reduced to zero.
As the saying goes, be prepared!
At the same time, low-definition cameras deployed under the landing site and the research station also recorded the lander's uneventful landing process.
That success not only improved our technology, but also our team spirit. That team spirit is the driving force for us to continue to move forward in the future, and it is also the guarantee of success.
What future mission would allow me to stay even an inch away for such a short period of time? I’m afraid it can’t be compared to the current manned moon landing mission!
Before hovering for seven or seven seconds to determine a suitable landing site, the lander ended its steep descent and landed at the selected target site.
The spacecraft may fall out of the crater or hit lunar rocks, causing minor consequences. You must know that there are very few craters and rocks under the moon!
