The "Can Moon One" of the "Canxing Lunar Landing Department" team is not humanity's first private lunar landing mission. Many private teams have attempted it before.

Coincidentally, they were all participants in the former Lunar Grand Prix.

Although many private teams were ambitious when they participated in the former Lunar Grand Prix, in the end, no private team was able to send a probe to the moon on time, even after the former Lunar Grand Prix was postponed for several years, so the former Lunar Grand Prix was canceled helplessly.

However, the cancellation of the Grand Prix did not cancel the research missions of some teams. After years of research, some teams are about to achieve results, and they are certainly reluctant to give up.

After hard work, a private team from Hexagon Star Country finally manufactured its own private lunar lander last year, and hitched a ride with two other satellites... oh, rockets, to the moon.

Unfortunately, if this private lunar probe called "Genesis" could have landed on the moon successfully, Hexagon Star Country would have been the fourth country on Earth, after White Bear, Meriken, and Tianxia, with the ability to achieve a soft landing on the moon.

In the end, Genesis lost signal when it was 150 meters away from the moon.

Afterwards, the Meriken Space Administration announced that it had discovered its impact site, and officially stated that its lunar landing mission had failed.

Just a few days ago, there was another private lunar landing attempt, also by a participating team from the former Lunar Grand Prix.

They finally realized their dream of private lunar landing, successfully achieved a soft landing on the moon, and the experimental equipment they carried operated normally, transmitting signals and data back to Earth.

That was also very much watched at the time.

It's just that the mission of "Can Moon One" this time is different. It is more complex, and it is not over after landing.

It is similar to Chang'e 5 a few days ago.

The Chang'e 5 probe consists of four parts: an orbiter, a returner, a lander, and an ascender. It is the same.

Chang'e 5 weighs 8.2 tons in total, while Can Moon One weighs only 3.8 tons, less than half the weight of Chang'e 5.

But even though it is small, it can still satisfy the Lunar Grand Prix.

First, the lander must separate from the orbiter to achieve a soft landing on the lunar surface, and the orbiter must continue to orbit the moon.

Then, the successfully landed lander will activate the scoop to collect samples, that is, dig up some lunar soil and put it into the storage tank of the ascender.

After that, the ascender takes off, docks with the orbiter in lunar orbit, puts the storage tank into the returner, and returns to Earth.

Finally, the orbiter releases the returner in Earth orbit, the returner re-enters the atmosphere, and after reaching a predetermined altitude, opens the parachute and lands.

After several days of flight, Can Moon One was conveniently captured by the moon's gravity and entered lunar orbit.

After flying around the moon for a few laps to lower its orbit, it finally entered landing mode.

From the initial launch, the Lunar Grand Prix official and Interstellar Navigator Company have been paying close attention to it, and other participating teams are also very concerned, after all, this is related to their... ranking and bonus.

Big companies care about ranking, small teams care about bonuses.

And they are all concerned about the later large lunar landing contracts.

Interstellar Navigator Company is constantly releasing new images, attracting the world's attention.

In order to reduce weight, Can Moon One removed a lot of payload, reduced its size, and only retained the basic equipment. Many experimental payloads were removed, but the key camera still had to be brought.

It took pictures of the Earth when it was far away from the Earth.

After flying for a period of time, it took pictures of the Earth and the Moon of the same size.

After approaching the Moon, it took pictures of the Moon larger than the Earth.

In addition to these, there was also a large nameplate with names engraved on it, which was clearly photographed by the camera, and many people liked to find their names on it.

These names come from all over the world, and they are the names of Canxing game players. Whenever they find their own name or their friends' names, there will always be a wave of showing off on social platforms.

This is different from the names engraved in the chip, which need to be found with a microscope. They can be seen at a glance.

Of course, there must be duplicate names, and there have been many oolong incidents because of this, until the person concerned sends out the confirmation registration notice.

Others don't know, but this probe with Canxing blood all over its body affects the hearts of Canxing game players all over the world, and also affects the hearts of many other game players.

After all, they are all games.

Many game players are envious that the games others play have gone to the sky, and even the names of the game players can land on the moon, while the games they play are called garbage every day.

Because of these reasons, more and more people are paying attention to Can Moon One, until the moment it landed.

Of course, here we must also thank the Tianxia Aerospace Administration for its help, because Can Moon One used Tianxia's official lunar exploration network, precise lunar maps, and detailed lunar information.

It also received the help of the "Queqiao" relay satellite, so that it did not lose contact with the ground command center when it was on the far side of the moon.

Lunar landing live broadcast, start!

Because of the satellite's bandwidth limitations, the live video is very blurry, but people don't care about this, they are all very excited to watch.

What they want is this process.

If you want to see clearly, there will be high-definition recorded videos released after the signal is completely transmitted back.

"Landing engine start!"

"Stow the solar panels!"

"..."

"Enter hover mode!"

"Enter the fine obstacle avoidance stage."

"..."

Many people watched the live broadcast while craning their necks to look at the moon in the sky, as if they could see the tiny lander over the lunar south pole.

"Steady, steady, steady!"

"Come on! Come on!"

The newest novel is first published at Six/9/Book/Bar!

As the lander got closer and closer to the lunar surface, people's mood became more and more tense, until the command center announced: "Landing successful!"

Everyone cheered.

On the barrage.

[ohhhhhhh!]

[NB!!!]

In the command hall.

People stood up and applauded, and then more people came over to shake hands with Tang Chao, congratulating them on completing another feat!

Becoming the second private team in the world to land on the moon!

But "second place" cannot satisfy Tang Chao, he wants first place.

Soon the command hall became quiet again, and people once again paid attention to the big screen.

In the animation simulation on the big screen, the solar panels are opening. After the solar panels are fully opened, the good show will officially begin.

The live broadcast screen switched to another shot. In the shot, a robotic arm fixed on the lander moved.

This robotic arm is very long, and several joints on it are folded up. After it is unfolded, people can see that its end is a small grab bucket.

This small grab bucket is so small that it is not even as big as a human palm.

Its structure is not complicated, it is just a containment space formed by two openable and closable bucket-shaped jaw plates joined together.

I saw it slowly stretch towards the lunar surface, then slowly open the grab bucket, and then slowly grab towards the lunar surface.

After most of the grab bucket was inserted into the lunar soil, it slowly closed, and locked the lunar soil into its grab bucket.

A series of actions were very slow, very stable, and even a little... cute.

After grabbing a bucket of lunar soil, it slowly lifted it up, lifted it to the top of the equipment, and slowly put it into the storage tank of the ascender.

After completing this action, people were even more excited!

But this is not over yet, I saw the small grab bucket repeat the previous action and grab another bucket of lunar soil.

This operation stunned the netizens watching the live broadcast.

"Damn, is it not enough to grab one bucket? Is this going to fill the storage tank?"

"Its little shovel is so cute, I want to buy the same one!"

"I didn't expect you, a cute little thing with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to be so greedy, hahaha!!"

"This is what a tough guy should watch!!"

"Big grab bucket: Little Moon, eat my big shovel!!"

"Hahaha, Can Moon One's grab bucket is NB, lunar mass -1, -1, -1..."

Thanks to I'm old (Ⅱ_Ⅱ) for the reward, thank you~
