"Professor Xu, just now people from the Sam space agency want to talk to you again, saying that they have something important to tell you."

Xu You continued to pay attention to the various data of Xing Kong No. 1, and replied:

"I'm busy with things right now, so I don't have time to talk to them right now. Let's talk about it after our mission to the moon is completed."

Xu You thought to himself, at this time, the Sam Space Agency found himself again, and it is very likely that the last thing has come to an end.

However, even if they are willing to share some of the data of the Apollo program, it is not as important as the work of the immediate moon landing project.

"Professor Xu, we know that you are focusing your energy on this side now, so we will reject them first. But they said that it doesn't matter if you are busy, just let us pass the news to you."

Listening to the staff's words, Xu You understood what he meant.

"So, Sam Space Agency has relayed what they wanted to say, yes?"

"Yes, Professor Xu. They told us that the back side of the moon is dangerous, and our astronauts must not be allowed to go there."

"Um?"

Hearing these words, Xu You was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, Xu You quickly thought about why the Sam Space Agency was talking to himself at this time.

"The far side of the moon...does have some secrets that we haven't discovered yet."

When mentioning the back of the moon, Xu You couldn't help frowning.

It is impossible to fully understand the far side of the moon based on the information that Xu You can currently obtain.

Because of the attraction of the earth to the moon, the back side of the moon has always been the side we cannot see.

So far, it has only been possible to get a rough understanding of the back of the moon through the information sent back by some probes.

"No, besides the real danger, the Sam Space Agency must have some secrets of its own to hide."

And these secrets are definitely what they don't want us to discover.

Thinking of this, Xu You felt that our astronauts should not be allowed to easily set foot on the back of the moon.

But at the same time, it also aroused Xu You's interest in the exploration of the far side of the moon.

"Professor Xu, what do you think about this matter?"

"I suggest that astronauts do not explore the far side of the moon this time. This is not a necessary project in the first place. Under the premise of insufficient information and no guarantee of safety, there is no need to rush to take this risk."

"Okay, Professor Xu, I'll convey it to you."

According to the plan of the project team, the detection of the back part of the moon is not in the necessary plan for this moon landing.

Even without the sudden reminder from the Sam space agency, we probably wouldn't be in a hurry to set foot on the far side of the moon.

Thinking of this, Xu You continued to pay attention to the various data on the big screen, while thinking about the method of exploring the back of the moon.

"If there is some kind of danger, then the astronauts should not take the risk. Due to the limited performance of our lunar rover, it is impossible to undertake all the missions of lunar back exploration. Next, we must use the lunar rover with better performance Cars, or other detection instruments, can only be sent to the surface of the moon.”

Only when he has enough information about the backside of the moon can Xu You rest assured that the astronauts will go there in person.

in a few days.

Xingkong-1 has successfully completed multiple orbit changes, and is finally running stably in lunar orbit.

Soon, we will enter the final stage of landing on the moon.

"We can see that Xingkong-1 is only 200 kilometers away from the surface of the moon. Next, the spacecraft will continue to slow down and finally land on the surface of the moon. Let us look forward to this moment together."

The several-day live broadcast of the moon landing did not dampen the enthusiasm of the audience, but made them look forward to the moment of the final moon landing even more.

At this time, hundreds of millions of people around the world were watching the live broadcast about Xing Kong No. 1 at the same time.

Even, in some areas, it is now late at night, which has not affected everyone's enthusiasm for watching the live broadcast.

"Look, the three astronauts are waving to us. At this time, the three of them are 380,000 kilometers away from us. This distance is far longer than the distance between any two places on the earth. It is much farther away. A round trip of the electromagnetic wave signal also takes 2.6 seconds."

From the relaxed expressions on the faces of the three astronauts, it is difficult to see how difficult the task they are performing now is.

Only the Sam Space Agency has some experience in landing on the moon, not to mention that it was decades ago.

No matter how well prepared you are, it is impossible to say that you are not a little nervous at this time.

"We can see that the two astronauts have come out of the manned spacecraft and entered the lunar lander. Next, the lander will ignite and decelerate, and finally land on the moon smoothly."

The attentive audience noticed a detail at this time.

That is, the three astronauts did not all enter the lunar lander, but one astronaut was left to take care of the manned spacecraft.

The manned spacecraft will continue to stay in the near-moon orbit. Once there is any problem with the two astronauts who landed on the moon or the lunar module, it will be convenient for timely support.

In addition, when returning, the lunar module will still re-dock with the manned spacecraft, and the manned spacecraft must not leave people, otherwise, the safety of the manned spacecraft cannot be guaranteed.

Two hundred kilometers, one hundred and fifty kilometers, one hundred kilometers, fifty kilometers...

As the distance between the lunar module and the lunar surface gets closer, the lunar module is constantly decelerating.

In the end, the lunar module will land on the surface of the moon at a very slow speed to maximize the safety of the lunar module and astronauts.

"Look! Our lunar module is already very close to the surface of the moon!"

From the perspective of the lunar module, the rocks on the surface of the moon and its pitted surface can already be seen more clearly.

Through AI calculations, the lunar module will automatically detect the ground below and try to find a flat location for landing.

If the landing location is not well selected, it may cause damage to the lunar module and even affect the subsequent return journey.

When the lunar module was already very close to the lunar surface, it still maintained a relatively fast speed.

At this moment, the lunar module suddenly exerted a downward force, which caused the lunar module to decelerate a lot instantly, and landed on a flat position at a speed that was almost relatively stationary to the surface of the moon.

After seeing the lunar module landed safely, all the viewers who watched the live broadcast celebrated excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, the hatch of the lunar module slowly opened.

Two astronauts in extravehicular suits stepped out of the lunar module, holding bright red flags in their hands.
