Chapter 631 The principle with the highest priority

This time the launch mission on the moon is very special, and there is not even any test drive process.

Due to the limitation of materials, if the procedures required for normal rocket launches such as test runs are carried out on the moon, the various materials, energy, etc. existing on the moon are not enough to maintain subsequent rocket launches.

Therefore, this time the rocket launch on the moon, there is no way to carry out a lot of testing work, and more rely on simulation to determine the success rate of the rocket launch.

Such a situation is unique in the history of spaceflight in the world.

Although before this, Xu You had used his brain simulation skills to simulate the lunar rocket launch scenario many times to ensure that the lunar rocket launch would be no problem.

But after all, this is the first moon rocket launch, but there is no test run process, and even a lot of test work is directly omitted.

It can be said that such a rocket launch has a very low error tolerance rate.

Once any unexpected situation occurs, the entire plan will be in vain.

Of course, if the worst situation that everyone does not want to see really happens by then, it is not that there is no room for recovery.

If the rocket on the moon is not successfully launched, at this time, the spacecraft launched from the blue star will replace the spacecraft launched from the moon to hit the asteroid.

And because the momentum of the spacecraft launched from the blue star is not enough to deflect the trajectory of the asteroid too much, as long as the place where the asteroid finally lands is far away from the black hole on the moon.

But the consequence of this is that the moon will suffer a major blow.

Not only will the entire moon vibrate violently following the impact, but the lunar scientific research base we have built may also be wasted due to this.

Of course, such a loss is not unacceptable.

It is definitely a very cost-effective exchange to exchange the loss of the lunar scientific research base for the safety of the entire Blue Star human race.

After experiencing this impact, Xu You is still unable to accurately estimate what kind of impact it will have on the moon.

According to Xu You's simulation, after the catastrophe, the moon may not be suitable for humans to land on for a few years, because the impact of the asteroid will cause serious moonquakes on the moon.

Such moonquakes are difficult to predict and may occur at any time, and the specific magnitude cannot be accurately judged.

This will have a great impact on our future space exploration plans.

As long as there is enough confidence, Xu You still hopes that this asteroid will not affect the blue star, nor will it affect the moon.

At this time, more than a dozen astronauts stationed on the moon are ready.

They are all very nervous, because once the rocket launch fails, they will immediately evacuate the moon by aircraft to prevent the arrival of the asteroid from affecting them.

"Get ready for rocket launch!"

Hearing the command from the control center of the blue star, the astronauts on the moon pressed the start button of the rocket launch.

"Five, four, three, two, one, launch!"

With the end of the countdown, the rocket on the moon finally ignited and started this world-renowned launch.

Since there is no atmosphere on the moon, and the gravitational situation is very different from that of the blue star, this makes rocket launches on the moon face many difficult factors.

Xu You also stared at the situation on the screen nervously, frowning tightly, not daring to miss any details.

To everyone's relief, the rocket's ignition process was very successful, and the JT-9 rocket was successfully lifted off.

Xu You stared closely at the various data on the screen, quickly performing calculations in his mind, and compared them with the various data in the previous simulation.

The error between the two data is very small, and there were no surprises in the previous process.

"Control center, this is the lunar scientific research base, do we need to evacuate urgently?"

The representatives of the astronauts on the moon were nervously looking at the rocket after lift-off, and at the same time they were asking the control center of the Space Academy.

As long as there is no particularly urgent situation that threatens the lives of the astronauts, the astronauts will not evacuate easily.

After all, it takes a lot of time, energy, and money to transport astronauts from the blue star to the moon. Before space travel has become a common thing, such a flight across the planet will definitely not be carried out easily. .

After a few seconds, the control center responded.

"This is the control center. All astronauts, please stand by and do not perform the return mission for the time being. Please wait for the next notice, or when you feel that your safety is threatened, you can choose to perform the return mission."

According to what the control center has learned so far, the launch of the rocket is relatively smooth, basically consistent with the expected situation, and the safety of the astronauts on the moon has not been seriously threatened.

Of course, astronauts also have the right to make their own choices. After all, the communication from the blue star to the moon may be interrupted unexpectedly.

Moreover, the astronauts on the moon may also notice some situations that the control center did not notice. If they suddenly find something dangerous, then waiting for the command from the control center will delay the precious evacuation time.

As the saying goes, if military orders abroad are not accepted, adapting to changing circumstances is the principle with the highest priority.

At this time, not only the aerospace systems of various countries are paying attention to the launch of this rocket, but billions of people around the world are also paying attention to the launch of this rocket in real time through various channels, and the people who are about to visit Blue Star. asteroid.

"Unexpectedly, this asteroid will actually visit the blue star in the end. Fortunately, there are rabbits, who can make sufficient preparations before that, launch rockets on the moon, and block the asteroid's impact through the impact of the spacecraft. arrival."

"I don't read much, so I just ask a question, why not directly use nuclear devices to blow up this asteroid? According to Blue Star's existing nuclear device reserves, it should be enough to blow up this asteroid, right?"

"It may be for safety reasons, or it may be that everyone doesn't want to use so many nuclear devices easily, in case all these nuclear devices are used up, they will lose their initiative in the military threat of Blue Star."

At this time, apart from the aerospace systems of several countries, not many people knew that the expected impact site of this asteroid was the moon, not the blue star.

After the rocket launched on the moon flew into the sky, it started the process of rocket separation step by step according to the predetermined procedure.
