Landing

Time passed by, and after 4 days of sailing, the spacecraft finally reached the final stage of landing.

As early as the 1960s, landing was the most difficult and most trouble-prone stage. The technical means at that time were limited, and the take-off and landing of the spacecraft were all set at one time, and manual intervention was not possible in the middle. For a week-long journey of 380,000 kilometers, when to go where and when to change speed must be accurate to the second. If a mistake is made, the plane will crash and people will die.

Now in 2020, computer systems have developed rapidly, and aerospace technology is much more advanced than before. The "Victory" spacecraft mainly uses unmanned means, and the supercomputer in the main control room has also written various equations to deal with a large number of emergencies.

After orbiting the moon for 2 weeks and decelerating twice, the spacecraft finally came to the top of the Antarctic Bailey crater.

This is the largest crater on the moon, with a diameter of about 303 kilometers. In mid-air, a circular glass cover with a diameter of about 2 kilometers and a height of about 1,000 meters can be seen with the naked eye. It is densely covered with solar panels, and there are a large number of mining machines and various machinery in the surrounding open space.

This is the moon base! A miracle, the ninth miracle of mankind!

"Ding dong, the spacecraft is about to land on the moon. There may be some bumps during the process. Passengers, please fasten your seat belts and hold on to the handrails." A gentle electronic sound automatically sounds, reminding everyone to prepare for the final moon landing .

Everyone in the warehouse cheered, and some even shed tears with excitement. Many people came to the moon for the first time, but seeing such a huge group of artificial buildings, they felt a warm feeling from the bottom of their hearts.

Man is a creature that needs a sense of security, especially after the explosion of the earth, the warm sunshine, the free air, and the solid earth no longer exist backing and can only face the cold and silent universe alone. The pressure brought by people is very great.

The spaceship is destroyed, the air leaks, the mechanical failure, etc., as long as there is a small mistake, it will immediately lead to the death of the entire crew, without any chance.

In this case, a sense of insecurity develops deep in the person's heart, and it will gradually accumulate. When a person accumulates more pressure than he can bear, it is likely to explode completely, either to destroy wildly, commit suicide, or become crazy and stupid, all of which are possible.

For this situation, the best solution has two points, first, hope, let people believe that they can survive.

Second, as long as there are enough people, it can also bring a sense of security, which is determined by people's herd mentality. When a disaster strikes, more than 90% of people will run to crowded places. Even if there are many people, it may not be safe, but the public will still choose this way. This is the herd mentality of people.

The four-day space voyage brought enough mental pressure to the passengers, but this pressure was reduced a lot when people saw the moon base. This is because people see hope.

There was only a loud "coax" sound, accompanied by a violent tremor, and the spacecraft finally landed on the moon!

The crowd was suddenly noisy, and many people stood up from their seats and squeezed to the door, anxious to get off the spaceship first. They are eager to see more people, more of their kind.

"Quiet! Quiet! Sit in their original positions!" Jack yelled, pushing a few people out, but a steady stream of people came over.

Seeing this, Jack made a gesture, and a burly man with a height of 1.9 meters stood up. His skin was dark and his body was full of muscles. With a wave of his hand, he pushed away the crowd, and then stood still, blocking the entire door.

"Why do you block the door?" A young man with glasses shouted excitedly. He pushed it a few times and found that the big man couldn't be pushed at all.

"It's a vacuum outside, are you in a hurry to go out and seek death?"

The young man suddenly became angry, "Then... what about the spacesuit? What about the lunar rover? Didn't you agree to have a lunar rover? How do you serve it!"

Most of the people sitting here are skilled workers who are about to participate in the construction of the lunar base. These people have been carefully selected and their quality is generally relatively high.

But there are still a small number of local tyrants and wealthy people who spend money to come to the moon purely for tourism, which means that this group of people is the least likely to accept the reality of the earth exploding. From this young man's attire, it can be seen that he is either rich or expensive, but now, everything has become a passing cloud.

The burly man blocking the door was named Yao, and he was a member of the special forces. He hated this kind of domineering rich second generation the most, sneered, and gave the young man a hard look.

"Lunar rover? Haha, don't even think about it, you are in such a mess with less than 200 people. How can the moon base get better? Maybe there are rebellions and massacres in the base..."

"You're talking nonsense! How is it possible?" the young man yelled, his face becoming gloomy. Logically speaking, there should indeed be a lunar rover to pick them up, but now that the lunar rover is not here, this reminds him of the bad side.

"There are a large number of death row prisoners in this base, don't you know? Maybe the group of death row prisoners are having a doomsday carnival." Yao said quietly.

The young man was completely stunned when he heard this, and he sat down for a long time. His face was pale and terrifying. I don't know if it was because Yao's vicious voice frightened him, or because words such as rebellion and massacre reminded him of something wrong. Good thing.

He didn't know what to say at all. With his status, he might know some inside stories that ordinary people don't know. If something really happened to the moon base... Thinking about it, there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

Seeing that the crowd was getting more and more chaotic, Jack said directly: "Everyone, due to the chaos inside the base, we have to carry out some tasks for about one to three days. In the meantime, for safety, you must To stay in the spaceship..."

After these words were finished, everyone made a loud noise, and everyone began to realize that the moon base may not be safe...but this is the last hope! Where else can I go but here?

There were shouts to take them, and some women cried. Although these soldiers are a bit domineering, most people still don't want them to leave, because their existence means safety and reliability.

"You just have to wait for a few days, there is enough food and water in the cabin..." Jack babbled for a long time, but found that there was no effect, so he could only hard-heartedly make a gesture, "Execute Plan B! "

The vice-captain Jimmy nodded, and then, a white mist quietly spread from the bottom of the cabin, with some pungent smell. After a while, someone started to cough, and the noisy cabin gradually became silent, and many passengers fell to the ground staggeringly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, all members put on space suits, carried weapons and equipment, and set foot on the land of the moon.

Except for Jack and Jimmy, no one else has ever been to the moon, so they are still a little new to the lunar environment. Although it is daytime now, the sky is still black, only the ground reflects a layer of dazzling white light, which is because there is no atmosphere.

Yao jumped excitedly, jumping seven or eight meters high, which is the height of a two-story building! As a result, I couldn't stand upright and fell to the ground. Fortunately, it didn't hurt.

"They stay inside, will there be nothing wrong?" A young man with a shaved head next to him asked through the headset.

"No problem, these hypnotic gases are effective for 24 hours, during which time they will not wake up. Well, we must hurry up." Jimmy smiled self-deprecatingly again, "Extreme times, use extraordinary means, if placed Usually, doing so not only entails administrative punishment, but the lawsuit alone is enough for us to eat a pot."

Everyone laughed bitterly.

At this time, Jack made a gesture to signal everyone to be quiet. He said: "The moon's gravity is only one-sixth of the earth's, which means you can jump higher and farther, but it doesn't mean you can go faster! Just like Yao, one does not Be careful and fall down, because you haven't adapted to gravity yet."

After hearing this, Yao scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Except for Sean and me, no one else has ever been to the moon, so they can't immediately adapt to the gravity environment here. So... I ask everyone to use guns as much as possible when fighting, and don't fight in close quarters! Otherwise, if you miss and fall, You could lose your life!"

Jack said seriously, "I don't want to lose any comrades in arms, do you understand?"

"Understood !"

"Okay, let's go!"
