Which piece to print next? Wu Hao asked.
Upon hearing Wu Hao's inquiry, Yu Chengwu immediately pointed with a laser pointer and said: "Next, we will start extending along the corridor of the main control center and then print the building."
General Yu Cheng pointed his laser pointer at a rectangular box-shaped building model, and Wu Hao couldn't help but speak.
Comprehensive activity center!
Yes, Yu Chengwu responded with a smile: "If the main control center is the control center of the entire lunar scientific research station system, then the comprehensive activity center will be the life and work center of the entire station's residents.
It includes not only activity space, but also restaurants, conference rooms, bathrooms and other functions.
At the same time, the comprehensive activity center is also a crossroads for the entire lunar scientific research station. From here, you can access every corner of the entire research station, so construction is limited.
Only after the printing and construction here is completed, we will start to build experimental cabins, living cabins, ecological green plant cabins, etc. around here as the center. "
After hearing Yu Chengwu's introduction, Wu Hao and Zhang Jun couldn't help but nodded.
What is this over here? Zhang Jun pointed to a raised hill next to the main research station. There was a hatch underneath, much like an underground building.
Yu Chengwu smiled and replied: "This is our backup emergency escape center. When the lunar scientific research station is completely damaged and becomes uninhabitable, the personnel inside the research station can enter this backup emergency refuge center to live. Okay. Wait for rescuers to arrive.
After all, the moon is 380,000 kilometers away from the earth, which is too far, so we must prepare a backup escape center for it to prevent some unexpected situations from happening. Even if these unexpected situations are very low, we must be fully prepared as long as possible. After all, this is related to the safety of the people staying in the research station. "
Very good, what we want is your serious attitude. Wu Hao smiled when he heard this.
Zhang Jun, on the other hand, smiled and said to Yu Chengwu and Zhou Xiangming: "After seeing so many models, we have to see some real stuff.
It's not easy for us to come here. You don't want to use this model to kill us. "
Hearing Zhang Jun's words, Yu Chengwu quickly explained: "No way, we are all ready. Next, we invite you and Mr. Wu to inspect our ongoing projects."
As he spoke, Yu Chengwu began to lead them inside.
Behind the hall are various laboratories under Haoyu Aerospace, the most famous of which is the Aerospace Science and Technology R&D Laboratory.
Everyone took the shuttle bus and arrived in front of a huge white factory building. Wu Hao and Zhang Jun got off the bus and were immediately led into a personnel passage on the side.
Walking in, the staff there immediately brought two white overalls with a floral hat similar to those worn by doctors in the operating room.
Mr. Wu and Mr. Zhang, this is a dust-free space inside. In order to keep it clean, you two need to put on work clothes, hats, and shoe covers. Zhou Xiangming explained to the two of them.
good. After hearing Yu Chengwu's words, Wu Hao and Zhang Jun naturally followed suit. With the help of the staff, they put on work clothes, shoe covers, and two dark blue floral hats.
After putting on the clothes, all the talents were led by the staff through the blowing and dust removal channel, and then came to the inside of the laboratory.
As soon as they entered, everyone was attracted by the huge thing in front of them.
In the middle of the huge laboratory, there is a Voyager spacecraft similar to the core module of a space station, except that most of it is not covered with an outer shell, so many exposed cables and pipes can be seen on it.
The spacecraft is surrounded by multi-layer workbenches, on which many scientific researchers are working at the moment.
After seeing Wu Hao and the others come in, they took a quick glance and immediately got into intense work.
Mr. Wu, Mr. Zhang, this is the Moon Express Earth-moon transfer spacecraft we are developing. Yu Chengwu stood in front of this behemoth, raised his voice towards Wu Hao and Zhang Jun, and preached with proud anticipation.
It looks small in the photo, but in reality, it's really big. Zhang Jun couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
Yes, the length of the entire Lunar Express Earth-to-Moon transfer spacecraft exceeds 22 meters, and the overall weight exceeds 25 tons. It can be said to be one of the largest single spacecraft in the world.
Its overall structure is similar to the core module of our space station. It is mainly divided into three parts, namely the resource power module at the tail, the crew module in the middle, and the node module at the top.
However, there are very big differences in appearance, structure, and some parts.
For example, the three components on the core module of the space station are actually connected together. They have a common name, which is the core module. The Moon Express Earth-Moon transfer spacecraft is divided into three independent parts.
From this point of view, its structure is more like a manned spacecraft. Because the traditional manned spacecraft also has three parts, namely the resource power module, the manned return module, and the orbital module.
In addition, the node module on the Moon Express Earth-lunar transfer spacecraft is different from the node module on the space station. Different from the traditional spherical node module on top of the core module of the space station, the node module of our Lunar Express Earth-lunar transfer spacecraft is more oriented. The long tube structure in the West has three docking points, one at the front and one in the middle.
In addition, there is a large hatch on the node module, which can be used for walking out of the warehouse, overhaul and maintenance of the entire Lunar Express Earth-Moon transfer spacecraft, and can also be used to transport and transfer some large-sized cargo.
Of these three docking ports, the front one is mainly used to dock the landing ascender, and is used to transfer personnel and materials for moon landing and ascent docking. The docking ports on both sides are mainly used to dock manned spacecraft and cargo spacecraft.
In other words, our Moon Express Earth-Moon transfer spacecraft can dock up to two spacecraft and an ascent lander.
The middle section is the crew cabin, which is relatively thick, with a diameter of eight meters. It is considered the thickest section among all spacecrafts.
Therefore, the interior space of the entire crew cabin is very considerable, which can be used not only to carry people, but also to load cargo.
Not only that, the huge space can be equipped with very complete living facilities, such as toilets and bathrooms, kitchenettes, dining rooms, and a very comfortable sleeping compartment that surrounds the bulkhead. It can provide very comfortable living conditions for the passengers during the entire Earth-moon transfer flight.
The small cylinder at the back is its resource propulsion module. You can see that there is a circle of spherical fuel tanks surrounding the small main body, which stores the propulsion fuel for the entire Lunar Express Earth-Moon transfer spacecraft. So essentially
This propulsion resource warehouse is actually a propulsion rocket that can work for a long time. (End of chapter)
