Chapter 183, Moon Sea of ​​Clouds Base

Li Fu walked into the command center of Fuyun Group Space Center in Longling Town, Sanjiang District, Meijiang City. The next big fat boy was named Li Wanzhou, because this kid was born more than 2 years later than the expected date of delivery.

If it wasn't for Li Fu knowing that he and Wang Yun were both Yuanli practitioners, the offspring they conceived would have better genes, so the time would have been longer, and he would have resisted all arguments and insisted on waiting for the time to give birth naturally, otherwise he would have had a caesarean section long ago.

As a father for the first time, Li Fu now has a smile on his face all the time, he is in a good mood, and he is very powerful in doing things.

"Brother Fu, congratulations, when will you invite me to dinner?"

Chen Bin, Yu Liang, Cao Haitao, Yang Yiping and others are discussing building a lunar base belonging to the Fuyun Group on the moon and preparing to carry out mining and scientific research on the moon. Seeing the smiling Li Fu, Yu asked with a bright smile.

"That's right, when did you invite me to dinner? I didn't invite you to dinner when I got married. This time, it is absolutely necessary."

Yang Yiping also joined in the fun.

"Haha, easy to talk, easy to talk, please, everyone must come."

Li Fu is now in a very happy mood, so he readily agreed.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone quickly got back into the working state and continued to discuss the matter of the moon base.

"Brother Fu, there are not many good places left on the front of the moon, only the sea of ​​clouds, the sea of ​​cold, the sea of ​​fog and so on are still unowned for the past few months. The other large areas of the moon sea have all been occupied by our Chinese officials. That’s right, the Wells area is occupied by Uncle Sam.”

"Now we need to determine an area to build a lunar base. We have discussed and discussed, and we all feel that Yunhai is still good. The data sent back by the resource exploration satellite launched in the past also shows that this area is very rich in resources. Among them, rare earth resources, iron ore resources, etc. are quite good, and the terrain is relatively flat. Although there is still a big gap compared with the good places occupied by the country, it can be regarded as a tall man among a short man."

Cao Haitao, the person in charge of the construction of the lunar base, opened a moon and earth through the virtual machine, pointed to an area on the moon and said in detail, asking for Li Fu's opinion.

"Since everyone thinks the Sea of ​​Clouds is good, let's decide in the Sea of ​​Clouds. After the construction of the lunar base is completed, our next plan is to go to the small belt to mine asteroids. We must prepare for this matter as soon as possible and come up with a detailed and reliable plan. come out."

Li Fu thought carefully in his mind, then nodded slowly, and then began to order to go to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids. Now the space solar power plant is still under construction, and it can already reach the level of smelting asteroids. So the mining of asteroids is also on the agenda.

"Don't worry, I've been paying close attention to this matter. Now we're building a super-large spaceship in Sky City to mine asteroids. As soon as it's built, we can go to the small belt to mine asteroids."

Chen Bin, who is in charge of this work, nodded. Mining asteroids is a very challenging job. Not to mention that the straight-line distance from the earth to the asteroid belt is 1-2.6 astronomical units. A kilometer is nearly 1.5 million to 4 million kilometers.

Such a long distance has very high requirements for spacecraft, astronauts, life support systems, etc., not to mention dragging asteroids back to the earth, so it is necessary to build special spacecraft in space to complete this task.

"Ah That's good."

Li Fu nodded in satisfaction. Li Fu was still very relieved when Chen Bin handled the matter, which was why Li Fu entrusted Chen Bin with such an important matter.

……

In the space center of Fuyun Group, more than a dozen large-scale "Hercules" aerospace planes are quietly parked on the runway. The interior of each aerospace plane is full of supplies. The interior of the seven or eight aerospace planes directly put the whole house that has been built into it. When they arrive on the moon, they only need to move these houses out to use them on the moon.

This kind of operation can greatly reduce the time and workload of the construction of the lunar base. Everything should be built on the earth side first. When you get to the moon side, you can directly find a place, lay a foundation, and move the house there.

Of course, all of this is also due to the huge belly of the "Hercules" aerospace plane. It is more than 50 meters long and more than 30 meters high. The internal space is very large, enough to hold a building.

Accompanied by bursts of roaring sounds, one after another aerospace plane continuously soared into the sky from the runway, and soon broke through the sky, entered space, and circled the earth in space continuously, changing to a larger one. After the initial velocity, it goes straight to the moon.

On the other side of the moon, Chang'e City, Luo Xiaoyao, Zhan Fei and others who had already arrived in Chang'e City drove the lunar rover full of materials for the construction of the lunar base and set off towards the cloud sea area selected by the company.

It is quite simple to build a lunar base now, because there are already many Chinese lunar bases, moon cities, etc. on the moon. You only need to go to the selected location to pave the airport and lay a good foundation in advance, and the rest is waiting for the sky. It is enough for the space shuttle to transport batch after batch of materials for the construction of the lunar base.

This is also the reason why Huaxia was able to occupy all the good sites on the front of the moon in less than half a year, because it is really easy to open a sub-base on the moon now. If necessary, it can bloom everywhere .

The desolate lunar surface is not too desolate now. Luo Xiaoyao, Zhan Fei and others drive the lunar rover continuously forward on the lunar surface. Every short time, they will encounter a lunar base or a lunar mining field, etc. Many large-scale projects The car was also traveling at high speed on the surface of the moon.

The sea of ​​clouds on the moon, Luo Xiaoyao, Zhan Fei and others’ convoy arrived at the reserved area very smoothly. The lunar engineering vehicle started to work. First, it cleaned the surface of the moon and pushed away some rocks and other things with the engineering vehicle. A large flat area.

Then the piling began, and the lunar engineering vehicle began to drill holes according to the planned area and position. After each hole was drilled, the thick steel plates that had been designed in advance began to lay the airport. These steel plates were tens of meters thick. All of them were smelted in the steel factory on the side of Chang'e City on the moon.

Each steel plate has a rod that can enter the hole, and they can also be embedded with each other to form a larger plane. Everyone began to work nervously on the lunar rover.

At this time, in the void between the earth and the moon, more than a dozen aerospace planes have been flying for more than 3 hours, and soon they are about to reach the orbit of the moon, and then directly landed on the sea of ​​clouds.

An airport made entirely of steel plates is slowly forming on the surface of the Moon Sea of ​​Clouds. Five runways with a length of over a kilometer and an airport with an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters are sufficient to meet the needs of the construction of the Sea of ​​Clouds Moon Base at this stage.

"Team Luo, is the airport ready? We've already started orbiting the moon."

A hearty voice came from Luo Xiaoyao's intercom. The scientists from Fuyun Group's Academy of Sciences who came with the team were conducting the final detection and calculation, and soon made an OK gesture to Luo Xiaoyao, signaling that the aerospace plane could land.

"It's time to land!"

The order from Luo Xiaoyao's side was issued, and soon from space, an aerospace plane, like a duck diving, plunged headlong towards the moon and headed straight for the airport on the side of the sea of ​​clouds.

Accompanied by the slight vibration of the ground, the aerospace plane landed steadily on the airport runway that had just been built. Soon, its huge belly slowly opened, and one after another large lunar engineering vehicles came from it. Driven out of the huge belly, these lunar engineering vehicles are also specially developed by Fuyun Group Science Research Institute, and are specially used to build lunar bases.

Cao Haitao, the person in charge of Fuyun Group’s Moon Sea of ​​Clouds Base, also walked out of the aerospace plane wearing an astronaut, and carefully looked at this desolate world. It was the first time he came to the moon, and he felt novelty. Looking into the space, the earth exudes a bright light. light, a piece of blue planet.

After all the goods in an aerospace plane have been unloaded, the aerospace plane will take off again soon, and it will fly to Chang'e City, where there are still a large number of goods and people waiting to follow it back to the earth , the most of which are the rare earth mines mined on the moon side.It is not easy to come to the moon, and the cost is also high. Naturally, we cannot return to the earth empty-handed, and the resources must be used reasonably.

After the cargo of one aerospace plane was unloaded, another aerospace plane landed again soon. This time, they were all large-scale houses on the moon base that had already been built. These houses were all made of alloy materials. It is very light, and the gravity of the moon is only 1/6 of that of the earth, so it is easily carried down by the lunar engineering vehicle.

Then install it to the position where the foundation has been laid, and soon houses will appear on the moon, forming a lunar base.

More than a dozen aerospace planes came down one by one, and then flew away quickly. One by one, the houses were installed. Some of the large quantities of materials were directly in the houses, and some were transported by aerospace planes alone.

More than ten hours later, a lunar sea of ​​clouds area appeared on a not-so-large moon base. Fuyun Group also officially announced that the area of ​​more than 300 million square kilometers around the lunar cloud sea area was officially included in the sovereignty of Fuyun Group.

When the news reached Ichiro Yagyu, the person in charge of the space field of the foot pot chicken, he couldn't help jumping up, because the sea of ​​clouds on the moon is also the area of ​​the moon base chosen by the foot pot chicken.
