Doesn't Wu Hao want a super launch vehicle like this? Obviously not. Of course he hopes to have one, but this is something they cannot have at this stage. Not to mention that developing it requires a lot of financial resources, but even if it is developed, how many times it can be obtained is still a question.

After all, for a launch vehicle with a carrying capacity of 80 tons or even hundreds of tons, the cost of one launch is very high. Even if it uses reusable rocket technology, the cost will still have a carrying capacity of 20 to 30 tons to 40 to 50 tons. Launch vehicles of this level are much higher.

Therefore, all it undertakes are some super-heavy missions. Although these missions are of high value, they are in the minority. After all, who doesn't often launch tens or hundreds of tons of things into space?

Therefore, as Wu Hao said, such a super launch vehicle is not practical at this stage and is not suitable for formal research. However, you can’t give up. After all, just because it’s not suitable now doesn’t mean it won’t be suitable in the future.

In the future, as they deepen their lunar exploration projects, they will inevitably start to develop lunar resources. By then, I am afraid they will need this kind of super launch vehicle.

This super launch vehicle can send many people into space at one time, and can also launch objects weighing tens or hundreds of tons into space at one time, laying the foundation for future mineral development on the moon.

In addition, deep space exploration projects such as Mars exploration require the help of this super launch vehicle. Only a launch vehicle like this can launch the Mars probe or even the Mars spacecraft in the spacecraft to the Earth-Mars transfer orbit. Down.

Not to mention some other deep space exploration projects, if a launch vehicle with a weaker carrying capacity is needed in the future, it will be applicable.

Before visiting the rocket model exhibits, Zhang Jun and Wu Hao became interested in the exhibits of some other projects. Especially when I saw a huge sand table model placed in the middle of the small hall.

The sand table model simulated the panoramic scene before the completion of the first phase of the Lunar Zhihai Lunar Surface Scientific Research Station, which has not yet been put into construction.

"Which main control center is the most populated one?" Wu Hao asked.

The entire scene was made very carefully, and it can be seen that a lot of effort was put into it. Basically, it is impossible to truly restore the full picture of their Lunar Zhihai Lunar Surface Scientific Research Station to proportions.

Yu Chengwu pointed at a building facility model at the center of the research station in the middle of the sand table with a laser pointer and introduced it to the two of them.

What you can't see in the video is that the main control center of the entire research station has not been printed out yet. It is very spectacular. Overall, it looks like a house placed outside.

The architectural model overall presents a structure with a cube on top and a circular dome on the bottom. You can't see that the entire main control center has two floors. The upper floor is connected to other building corridors of the research station, and the seventh floor should be the core control hall of my main control center, surrounded by a Circle hanging windows so that all buildings of the entire research station can be observed through those hanging windows.

“There, you are currently building the core of the scientific research station, the main control center, which is also the central control center of the entire Lunar Zhihai lunar surface scientific research station, similar to the core module of your space station.

Then you will know the full picture of the lunar scientific research station!

"Haha, yes, everyone will sigh when they see the sand table model. I never expected that you would build such a small-scale lunar scientific research station under the moon. It feels incredible." Yu Chengwu laughed. answer.

Wu Hao stood behind the model and exclaimed: "Although I have seen the relevant renderings later, it was on a screen and it was not intuitive to see, so I didn't feel anything ordinary.

Now facing that sandbox model scene, although it is just a desert model, it still makes you feel shocked. When I thought about it, you really built a scientific research base under the moon, it was like a dream. "

The module where your laser pointer is located, which is lower than other building facilities, is actually not the central control center of your research station. "

Of course, not only the building materials, but also other facilities and equipment need to be transported from the earth and then assembled and put into operation. Only when the entire system is up and running stably can the accommodation be moved in and out. "

There are mainly two main control centers like this, one is the main control module, and the other is the buffer control center.

However, it is just an inner shell. If you want to move in, you still need to renovate the interior. For example, to install glass on those hanging windows, that glass needs to be transported from the earth. In addition to glass, there are also some airlock door systems and lining materials, such as insulation materials, radiation-resistant materials, etc. Only those materials can be used to seal and pressurize the entire main control center, thus forming a dangerously stable and inoperable A building that accommodates people.

Yu Chengwu shook his head slightly when he heard the words: "Yes, you need to complete the entire scientific construction before it can be retracted and opened. And it is just a control center. There are no places for people to live and sleep outside it. Those need to be moved forward. Continue to build.”

The inner wall of the building made of 3D printing and sintering stacks shows a circle of pattern texture, which gives the building a sense of future technology.

Those materials cannot be produced under the moon with your current technical conditions. They can only be transported from under the earth.

Looking at the video image of the construction progress of the Houzhihai Lunar Surface Scientific Research Station displayed under the small screen hanging next to him, Zhang Jun nodded slightly.

It must have erased other background images. Just looking at that building, few people would probably think it was a newly built house somewhere under the earth.

This is what you are building now. Lu Yan looked at the sand table model and asked.

"The entire main control center covers a total area of ​​about 170 square meters. In addition to the core building, it also includes exit passages, independent airlock cabins and related equipment rooms. The entire building has not been printed yet, that is The first printed building of your lunar scientific research station.

The whole building is integrated. Except for some reserved hanging windows and the hollows of the airlock, the other parts are all integrated and very round, as if they grew naturally, not like some textured conches or Shells are very attractive.

To make matters worse, except for these overweight glass hanging windows, other materials are relatively heavy. For example, the doors, door frames, and window frames of the airlock cabin used that time were all made of aluminum alloy and titanium alloy materials. They were very heavy and suitable for transportation.
