Great Country Academician

What Wen Yuanhang didn't expect was that the "outrageous" idea of ​​live broadcasting the entire manned lunar exploration project was approved by the higher authorities after Xu Chuan wrote a letter.

After receiving the reply from the space agency, he fell into a life of doubt.

After working at Xinghai Research Institute for so long, it was the first time I had the thought of saying 'f*ck'.

No, it’s okay if this young national treasure is making a fuss, why are the people above also making a fuss with him?

Live broadcasting the entire manned moon landing project is a double-edged sword, right?

Although, if the whole process goes smoothly and the manned moon landing project is a complete success, it will greatly boost the confidence of the people and greatly improve China's position in the world's aerospace field.

But, he meant but... if something unexpected happens during the moon landing, the whole world will be embarrassed.

In such a major engineering project, shouldn’t seeking stability be the core purpose?

He almost couldn't figure it out, and it felt like his three views had collapsed. How did the higher-ups agree with this "brain hole" idea?

However, the decision and reply from above have been issued, and all he can do is cooperate fully.

After communicating with Xu Chuan, Weng Yunzong and Academician Chang Huaxiang, Wen Yuanhang took charge of daily work and announced the news to the external media.

In addition to holding a press conference to respond to hotly debated topics on the Internet related to time constraints and astronaut safety, it was also announced that the Xinghai Research Institute will work with CTV media to live broadcast the entire manned moon landing.

Once the relevant news was made public, it quickly aroused heated discussions on the Internet.

【live streaming? Full live broadcast! 】

【What the hell? Live broadcast of the moon landing? Doesn't this mean that we can see how the astronauts got up from the first moment? 】

[Isn’t the moon 380,000 kilometers away from the earth? Is there a delay? 】

[The communication technician said that there must be delays. The first is transmission delay. The maximum speed of electromagnetic waves is the speed of light. The second is forwarding delay. This is caused by relay equipment and the equipment itself. The third is coding calculation delay, which is generally affected by the computing performance of the transmitter and receiver. 】

[While the first communication delay currently has no solution, the second and third ones can be optimized. 】

[Warwick employees are here to kindly break the news: “This live broadcast of the manned moon landing used our newly developed ‘cross-orbital seam communication technology’! It can greatly improve the satellite communication delay problem!”]

[Live broadcast of the moon landing? It was just a little trick that Apollo 11 had already played. If the moon landing fails, it will be a slap in the face]

[Upstairs, you are such a shepherd, and you admire your father Mi so much, why are you still here? Go to the country of Mi as soon as possible. 】

[I just wish the picture quality was clearer! Come to HD! 】

[How high definition is enough? That’s definitely 4000p! 】

As soon as the news of the full live broadcast of the moon landing was announced, there was an intense discussion on the Internet.

The interest on major platforms quickly shifted to this matter, and many netizens said that they had prepared peanut and melon seed mineral water and were waiting for the live broadcast to start.

However, for Xinghai Research Institute, Xu Chuan's sudden idea of ​​temporarily adding a live broadcast process upset many people.

Although there is still time, technical preparations, the establishment of the live broadcast platform, the guidance of some screen chats during the live broadcast, and how to solve unexpected situations during the moon landing, etc., all need to be properly prepared in advance. OK

A word from the top and a broken leg from the bottom. This is probably the best expression of Xinghai Research Institute and the space agency at this moment.

Fortunately, although time is tight, it is still enough.

The days passed like this day by day, while the Xinghai Research Institute and the Chinese Space Administration were preparing for the first manned moon landing project.

On the other side, NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Four astronauts, three men and one woman, landed on the Artemis lunar landing craft, which had already completed inspections. As the BRF heavy-lift rocket was ignited, hot air flowed into the sky in the space base, and the huge spacecraft also followed. And moved, quickly flying towards the sky.

In the command center on the ground, NASA Director Bill Nelson watched the Artemis spacecraft successfully lift off, with a bright smile on his face.

"My dear old man, see that? They're going to the moon, and they're going to our dreams."

Standing aside, NASA Deputy Administrator Bill Gerstenmaier nodded, with a smile on his face: "Of course, I wish them all the best."

Looking at the BRF heavy-lift launch vehicle that had disappeared from sight, Bill Nelson grinned and said: "Unfortunately, time is urgent and we have no time to prepare for the full live broadcast."

When the Xinghai Research Institute announced that it would live broadcast the entire Xinghai manned lunar landing project, NASA had already completed the launch-related work, and it would definitely be too late to join the live broadcast temporarily.

Otherwise, after they take the lead in starting the live broadcast of the manned moon landing, the popularity in China will definitely drop a lot.

But this is not a very important thing. This time when they return to the moon, they not only have to build a permanent base on the moon, but also complete and seize a series of firsts!

For example, the first female astronaut to land on the moon, the first time to explore and try to mine underground minerals, the first time to scan the entire moon with ground instruments, etc.

Although these are only nominal honors, these are what NASA is striving for.

If not, they would not have chosen to advance the launch of the Artemis lunar lander to today.

Although they completed the return to the moon before China, the honors brought by these first times are also worth fighting for.

On the other side, Jinling.

In Xia Shu Space Base.

After NASA completed the launch of the Artemis lunar landing window, the Xinghai's first manned lunar landing project also ushered in a 48-hour countdown preparation.

Following the instructions from the top management, the approval document for the manned moon landing project passed all reviews as quickly as possible and was sent to the Xia Shu Space Center of Xinghai Research Institute.

At the same time, security near the Xinghai Research Institute and the space base has been put on the highest level of alert.

All the launch work is ready, and the various instruments and equipment that need to be delivered to the moon with the astronauts this time have also been delivered into the cargo bay of the Xinghai space shuttle.

In the space base, hurried engineers and technicians were constantly entering and exiting the space shuttle, conducting final and repetitive inspections to ensure that the Xinghai and various equipment were in the most perfect condition.

In the main control room, standing in front of the monitoring screen, Xu Chuan personally took charge and directed the simulation of tomorrow's manned moon landing.

In fact, this is not the first time they have conducted this kind of simulated moon landing exercise since June.

In order to ensure that this manned moon landing project is foolproof, every staff member and working group in different positions has already kept their work scope and operations firmly in mind.

Repeating it again and again is just to ensure that the moon landing is foolproof.

A long time passed, and when all the simulation exercises were completed again, Xu Chuan, who was standing in front of the console, breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Thank you for your hard work today. Let's go back and rest early. We will have a real battle tomorrow!"

"yes!"

In the main control room, a reply sounded like a military order.

As the sound landed, each team and staff began to check their work, and then left the venue in an orderly manner.

For everyone present, and even for people across the country, tomorrow is definitely the most exciting day in the history of life.

When the simulation exercise ended, Academician Chang Huaxiang, who was standing next to Xu Chuan and cooperating with the work, also breathed a sigh of relief.

After taking a long breath, he turned slightly, looked at Xu Chuan who was wearing a headset and said, "Everything depends on tomorrow."

Xu Chuan nodded and responded with a smile: "Yes, after such a long preparation, it just depends on tomorrow!"

From miniaturized controllable nuclear fusion, to aerospace engines, to the Xinghai space shuttle, to the first unmanned test flight, the first manned voyage, and the first unmanned moon landing.

Everything is, in a sense, preparing for tomorrow's manned moon landing project.

And tomorrow, under the gaze of hundreds of millions of eyes, they, or rather the country of China, will take their first step toward the stars in the universe!

Twenty-four hours is not a long time.

Under the busyness of the staff at the space base, countless netizens were anxiously waiting.

In the evening of the 20th, Chinese netizens who had just finished dinner began to gather early towards the live broadcast room prepared by CTV.

Although the official announcement is that the live broadcast will officially start at 10 o'clock in the evening, this does not prevent netizens from sitting down in advance and selling melon seeds and peanut mineral water in the dark live broadcast room.

While these netizens were posting various barrages, on the other side was Xia Shu Town.

At Xia Shu Space Center of Xinghai Research Institute, as night falls, bright lights illuminate the entire base.

At eight o'clock in the evening, there are still four hours left before the launch of the Xinghai space shuttle.

At this moment, around the launch center, straight and fully armed figures set up checkpoints on the road several kilometers away, checking the passing vehicles.

Within a one-kilometer radius around the base, military and police personnel armed with live ammunition were constantly patrolling. From time to time, some idle personnel with SLRs or cameras who wanted to observe and photograph the launch of the Xinghai space shuttle at close range were discouraged.

Don't underestimate the Chinese people's determination to join in the fun.

After the Xinghai Research Institute announced the official launch of the Xinghai manned lunar landing at 0:00 a.m. on the 21st, many people living in Jinling began to prepare to join in the fun and wanted to take close-up shots of this memorable scene. Some people even traveled thousands of miles to come here by plane or high-speed rail.

Of course, for these people who join in the fun, the patrol officers usually dissuade them from going back after carefully checking their identities. If they don't listen to the initial dissuasion, and if they still want to sneak in later, they will be directly detained and educated.

As for those who have problems with identity verification, there is another way to deal with it.

Two hours is not a long time, until ten o'clock in the night. The airports in Jinling City and surrounding cities, whether for civilian or military purposes, have completed air traffic control.

At this moment, all planes were parked at the airport to prevent unexpected situations from interfering with the Xinghai launch.

Looking down from a high altitude, on the ground, busy staff are shuttled through the space base like worker ants in an ant colony.

Under the urging of tens of millions of netizens, CTV’s exclusive live broadcast room finally slowly kicked off.

The CTV broadcast truck, which had already obtained the access permit, was parked next to the launch site.

Reporter Sun Yutong, who has shoulder-length hair, looks at the camera with a standard smile on her face.

"Good evening to everyone in front of the screen."

"This is CTV Radio and Television Station. I am our reporter Sun Yutong. Today is a day worth remembering and a day to remember history. Behind me is the space shuttle 'Xinghai' that carried out this manned moon landing project. In two hours, it will carry three astronauts to our moon. It will be our mission and our pride."

As the live broadcast started, countless netizens instantly became excited.

【Open the door! Open the door! Why haven't you opened the door yet? 】

[Already opened (dog head)]

【1】

【111111】

【First! First! 】

[Excited.JPG, let me see what our Xinghai looks like! 】

【ten years! It’s been ten years since Chang’e-3 landed on the moon! We can finally put a man on the moon! Awesome! 】

【Crazy call for the motherland! 】

[Is the moon really hollow? 】

[Live broadcast of the moon landing, it’s cool to think about it! 】

【.】

When the live broadcast officially started, the number of people in the live broadcast room was rising crazily. It exceeded 30 million in just two minutes, but the upward momentum has not weakened at all.

On the other side, in the lounge of the space center, Zhai Zhigang, who had completed many manned spaceflights before and was the first person in China to walk in space, was sitting on a chair and resting.

Next to him, there are two other teammates who landed on the moon together this time, named Chen Dong and Liu Yang (female).

The two are also astronauts with rich experience in manned spaceflight. Chen Dong entered space with the Shenzhou-11 spacecraft, docked with Tiangong-2, and served as the astronaut and commander of the Shenzhou-14 spacecraft.

Liu Yang is a lesbian who not only flew on the Shenzhou 9 mission, but also served as a pilot on the Shenzhou 14 mission.

The first manned landing on the moon was a major and arduous task. When selecting astronauts, it was not suitable to carry new people to space. Therefore, the three people performing the mission are astronauts with rich experience.

Despite this, the pressure on the three of them was equally great at this moment.

After all, moon landing is different from spaceflight. They already have full experience with the latter, but this is their first time with the former.

No one knows whether it is possible to go up to the unexpected moon that is 380,000 kilometers away, what kind of scene we will face after we go up, and whether we can come back.

Before embarking on this mission, each of them had said goodbye to their families and left a suicide note.

For them, every space mission is tantamount to risking their lives, especially the first time.

The first manned space flight, the first manned landing on the moon.

No one knows what they will face.

This is a job that requires great courage and mission, and it is also a job that you can be proud of for a lifetime.

PS: There will be another chapter later. The launch must be finished, but it won’t be out before twelve o’clock. Everyone, please read it when you wake up in the morning. Please vote for me.
