Because the Hope spacecraft rushed out of the atmosphere and entered space, losing the obstruction of the air and the restraint of gravity, its speed suddenly increased many times, and it was directly hit by many space junks. -< >-Net.
In desperation, Gao Yang had to order to shut down the antimatter engine and let the spacecraft fly forward with inertia.
Space junk is the most dangerous thing in the universe. The reason why humans have not landed on the moon again for decades is that, in addition to the impact of the atmosphere, the other most serious threat is space junk.
The Challenger space shuttle launched by the United States in 1983 had to stop flying because a 0.2 mm piece of paint detached from the collision, causing damage to the portholes.
In space, the amount of space junk created by humans has reached 5,000 tons. They are flying around the earth and can destroy the aircraft if not careful.
This is why it is so difficult to land on the moon. In space, the probability of an aircraft colliding with space junk is 3% to 7%. A piece of space junk with a diameter of 10 cm can destroy a space shuttle and cause a devastating disaster.
Space junk moves at cosmic speed, and it is very difficult to monitor all space junk every minute and every second. Compared with the space shuttle, the volume of the Hope spacecraft is almost tens of thousands of times that of the space shuttle. Such a large size causes the spacecraft to enter space and be hit by space debris 100% of the time.
Human beings are producing more and more cosmic garbage. The large ones are 10 centimeters and the small ones are only 0.01 millimeters. It is impossible to monitor them at all. These space junk pose a serious threat to human spaceflight programs.
If space debris is not controlled, in another ten years, by 2030, the amount of space debris will triple, which means that it will be more difficult for humans to enter space, because the proportion of excessive space debris hitting aircraft will reach 15 %.
As long as these space junks hit the aircraft, they will only create more space junks. In the end, humans may only be able to look at the sky and sigh, and will no longer be able to enter space.
In the future world, in order to prevent the spacecraft from being hit by space debris, the spaceships manufactured by humans have developed energy covers. These energy covers have very powerful defense capabilities. Hope is only the first-generation spacecraft, and the energy on the spacecraft is not enough to form a defensive shield.
If space junk is not destroyed, it will only pose an increasing threat to human beings. Gao Yang immediately issued an order to the spacecraft mastermind to turn on all laser weapons and beam weapons. These weapons will emit super energy and directly evaporate the space junk, creating a Humanity reduces threats.
Under Gao Yang¡¯s order, beams of laser light began to shoot out from the side of the Hope. Hundreds of finger-sized space junk were evaporated under the laser and particle beams.
After the spacecraft flew for about a minute, due to loss of power, the speed had slowed down to 1,000 kilometers per hour. The spacecraft, which slowly lost power, began to hang in space.
"The antimatter thruster is turned on 2%, the nuclear fusion unit keeps running, and we are heading to the moon."
Under Gao Yang¡¯s order, the thrust system of the spacecraft lowered. Even if the spacecraft uses this small thrust, its flight speed reaches 11 kilometers per second, reaching the second speed in the universe, reaching 660 kilometers per minute and 39,600 kilometers per hour. At this speed, it can reach the moon in more than nine hours. . -< >-Net.
If Gao Yang wants to increase his speed, he only needs to turn on 10% of the antimatter thruster function to reach a speed of 100,000 kilometers per hour. It only takes about 4 hours to reach the moon.
But this is the first time to fly, safety is the most important thing. There is so much garbage in space. When the spacecraft flies faster, if it hits space junk, the damage will be greater, and Gao Yang must be careful.
The spacecraft flies to the moon at a speed of about 40,000 kilometers per hour. It is in good flight condition. Any space debris that comes close to the spacecraft will be destroyed by laser weapons and particle weapons. The spacecraft is very safe.
Gao Yang did not dare to be careless and asked Yanhuang to monitor everything carefully. Gao Yang, several aerospace experts, and ten academicians boarded the aircraft and began to inspect the spacecraft to see what changes had occurred in the soldiers.
Each floor of the spacecraft has 100,000 rooms and 20 large passages. Each passage is 50 meters wide and five meters high, and can drive a car. In addition, there are more than 100 pedestrian passages on each floor.
In addition to the pedestrian passages and car runways, there are four huge cross-shaped flight passages in the spacecraft. This flight passage is connected to the five-story cabin and is the passage for the aircraft to enter and exit. It is 3000 meters long, 50 meters wide and 20 meters high.
Gao Yang and the experts sat in the aircraft and carefully inspected the soldiers.
The soldiers on the spacecraft are divided into three classes, two classes are resting, and one class is working or on duty.
The soldiers on duty were in good spirits and there was no one who could not bear it. Gao Yang smiled and talked with the soldiers and told themWe must relax.
Three hours later, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and Gao Yang accompanied the soldiers into the restaurant for dinner.
The chefs were very good at their craftsmanship, and Gao Yang had a big appetite. He ate while chatting with several old aerospace experts.
In the large restaurant, more than 7,000 soldiers were chatting and laughing while eating rich food. Except for the soldiers being a little nervous and uneasy when the spacecraft took off, the rest of the time was no different from the ground. The filtered light provided by the nuclear fusion unit in the spacecraft is very different from sunlight, making the soldiers happy.
There are many open spaces in the spacecraft filled with various green plants. The ecological environment of the entire spacecraft is very good. The soldiers were in excellent mood and mental state. Many of them went to relax after their duty, play games, exercise, or play ball and swim. Gao Yang was very satisfied with everything.
On the ground, at the Space Command Center, hundreds of experts are using the Beidou system to navigate the spacecraft.
There are twenty CCTV reporters on the spacecraft. They constantly relay everything in the spacecraft to CCTV. Every small story in the spacecraft has become the focus. There is endless news material here. The reporters one by one He was full of energy, and his words were drooling.
The spacecraft is operating well, and apart from the threat posed by space debris to the spacecraft, nothing unexpected has happened. The huge spaceship carried 20,000 people and was rapidly approaching the moon. The people on the ground were extremely excited.
All media around the world are paying attention to every move in the sky through satellites. Every detail of the Hope's flight affects people's hearts, because the Hope is not related to China as a country, but to all mankind.
The spacecraft had flown for nearly five hours without knowing it, had traveled nearly 200,000 kilometers, and was only half the distance from the moon.
Gao Yang began to order everyone to enter a rest state and prepare to land on the moon in five hours.
After receiving the order, the soldiers stopped all entertainment activities, checked their equipment, and took a rest.
Twenty thousand soldiers and engineers have all used genetic optimization fluid in their brains and have strong learning abilities. In three days of training, they learned knowledge that many people would take three months to learn. For them, all they need to do after landing on the moon is to execute orders, and everyone has strong confidence in Gao Yang.
Gao Yang ordered 100,000 miniature intelligent robots to monitor everything about the spacecraft, and ordered Yanhuang to monitor the spacecraft.
Gao Yang walked to the space telescope, and with the help of the space telescope, he looked at the moon 200,000 kilometers away, looking for the landing site of the spacecraft.
The temperature on the moon is variable. This primitive planet is too small to retain air on its surface. It has no air, no wind, and is desolate. Even if you give the moon an atmosphere, it will be useless. Its gravity cannot retain the atmosphere at all.
There is nothing on the moon except the light from the sun. There are only some brown stones on the ground.
The mass of the moon is very small, and its gravity is only one-sixth of that of the earth. On the earth, people can jump one meter, but on the moon, they can jump up to 6 meters high, and the flight time will be 6 times that on the earth. .
In this place with extremely small gravity, everyone is like those masters in martial arts novels, able to jump very far and very high. If you want to fall to death on the moon, it may be a bit difficult. Of course, this kind of gravity also brings a lot of inconvenience to people's work, but Gao Yang has been prepared for all this.
After observing for a while, Gao Yang found the landing site on the moon. After providing the landing site to the ground, experts on the ground began to set a route for the spacecraft. Gao Yang also entered the main control computer to rest and prepare to land on the moon in five hours.
