At the same time, the news that the lunar cargo transportation system lander successfully landed on the lunar surface was also spread through live broadcasts and external reporters, bloggers, and anchors.

For a time, related entries were like rockets and directly climbed to the top of major search lists. The Internet was full of relevant reports and news about the successful landing.

In the live broadcast room of the Chongqing TV News Channel, after the successful landing, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room became much more relaxed and happy.

"Commander Chen, now that the lander has landed on the moon smoothly, what should we do next?"

In the studio, when the host asked, Chief Master Chen with long hair smiled kindly and said: "Of course there is a lot of work to be done next. According to Haoyu Aerospace's follow-up plan for this mission, and We can see the list of materials and equipment transported this time.

First, they should first deploy a hypothetical high-power data antenna system, so that they can directly connect and interoperate with the earth without going through satellite relays that circle the moon.

We know that because the communication power of satellites is limited, especially the relay communication satellites that circle the moon and return to the moon, the power is limited, so the communication bandwidth they can provide is limited, and they can only transmit small-capacity data information, which will definitely not be able to meet the needs of subsequent lunar The construction of the lunar scientific research station is also not conducive to subsequent scientific research work.

Therefore, it is very necessary to set up such a high-power data antenna system. "

At this point, Master Chen changed the topic and emphasized: "Of course, this does not mean that relay satellites are useless, that is not the case. Because the moon is rotating around the earth, it often still has to pass through the earth. Relay communication satellites operating in orbit transmit data signals.

Compared with relay communication satellites in lunar orbit, relay communication satellites in earth orbit are larger, heavier, and more powerful, and are suitable for transmitting large-capacity data information. "

"After the high-power data antenna is set up, it must be powered. Although it carries solar panels, it is definitely not enough to be close to it. So this time there is also a set of solar panels in the cargo. These solar panels will jointly contribute to a solar power station on the moon and be connected to the super solid-state battery pack transported in this cargo, thereby providing power for this high-power data antenna system and a series of subsequent construction tasks. and scientific research tasks.

For example, the principle of the lunar soil 3D printer transported up this time is to melt the sand on the lunar soil into liquid through high temperature, and then print out the relevant building components through the nozzle.

The entire printing process consumes a lot of electricity, so a large amount of electricity is needed to maintain operation. This solar power station is indispensable.

So in the next period of time, what the entire project technical team will have to do is to unpack these materials and goods, and then build relevant infrastructure to prepare for the official start of construction of the lunar surface scientific research station. "

The host nodded and then looked at a younger expert next to him and asked with a smile: "Professor Zhao, as an expert consultant for this project, you have participated in the entire project demonstration and establishment process. Can you tell us something?" Interesting things we don’t know?”

Hearing the host’s inquiry, Professor Zhao smiled slightly, then smiled at the host and said: “When Haoyu Aerospace’s lunar exploration plan and lunar surface scientific research station project were conducting feasibility studies, Haoyu Aerospace invited the aerospace industry to conduct feasibility studies. Experts and professors in the field and the study of cosmic objects went together to conduct feasibility studies.

As for Haoyu Aerospace, it also elaborated on the huge and brilliant lunar exploration plan to all experts. Among them, the lunar surface scientific research station is the core part of the entire exploration plan and the most critical link.

Only when its construction is completed can it provide a safe and stable living and scientific research environment for our astronauts and scientists heading to the moon, which is equivalent to a wilderness sanctuary.

We know how important it is to have a shelter like this in the wilderness. This is like home. Once you have a home, you can live here for a long time.

Just like many of us young people working in big cities, if you want to stay in this city, you must first have an apartment and a place to live. This is the foundation.

What Haoyu Aerospace is doing now is to build such a house on the moon to prepare for its long-term stay on the moon. "

At this point, Professor Zhao pointed to the CG bird's-eye view of the lunar scientific research station on the screen and said: "To be honest, the part we see now, the buildings and facilities on this picture, are just the lunar The first phase of the scientific research station.”

Is just the first phase of the project so huge? The host said slightly surprised.

Professor Zhao said with a smile: "The building scale of the first phase of the project is about 500 square meters, which can accommodate 20 astronauts and scientists to stay in the research station for a long time.

Because the moon has gravity, although it is only one-sixth, such gravity allows our astronauts and scientists to stay on it for a long time without the rapid acceleration of human muscles and bones caused by the weightless environment of the space station. Symptoms of churn appear.

Of course, these 500 square meters are only the core area of ​​the entire lunar scientific research station, which is its main living and scientific research area. Outside the core area, the functional areas that provide services for the entire core area are larger.

For example, the high-power antenna data antenna system we mentioned earlier provides communication support services for the later operation of the entire research station. Large-scale solar power stations only have sufficient power to ensure the operation and use of the entire research station. Not only do people need electricity for their daily lives, but scientific research also requires a lot of electricity.

There are not only long days on the moon, but also long nights, which last about two weeks. During such a long night, the temperature on the moon's surface will drop to more than 230 degrees below zero. In such extremely cold weather, solar power stations cannot generate electricity.

The entire lunar scientific research station cannot do without electricity for even a second, so we need to install a battery for it. This is the Peak and Valley Energy Storage Power Station. It uses the super solid-state battery of Haoyu Technology to conduct scientific research on the lunar surface. A battery pack is installed inside the research station to form a peak and valley energy storage power station to regulate and control the power demand of the entire lunar scientific research station.

During the long lunar day, the electricity generated by the solar power station not only supplies the entire research station, but also charges the battery pack.

When the long night comes, the solar power station stops generating electricity. At this time, it is necessary to supply the entire base with the power stored in the batteries of the peak and valley energy storage power station. "
