Chapter 391 Metal Behemoth
The entire lunar module is divided into upper and lower parts.
The lower part is the largest and best understood.
It's the cockpit with the jets.
As for various equipment and materials, they are all directly hung outside the lower part of the lunar module.
When the lunar exploration and scientific research projects are over, all these things will be abandoned on the moon.
After the technology of private telescopes is greatly improved in the future, many people will actually be able to see these things left on the moon.
After all, the choice points for landing on the moon are all the front, where the sun shines, not the back of the moon or places such as mountains and valleys.
As for the upper part of the lunar module, it is used to store various specimens, and only take the astronauts into space, and then dock with the command module.
Store all the specimens and the like in the command module, and then abandon this part of the lunar module in space and return to Earth.
By the time the two finished processing these specimens, more than an hour had passed.
After eating some liquid food and water stored in the space suit, Li Changheng said to Jim, "I plan to follow the crater and explore the unexplored places.
If we can find a way out of the crater, we will divide the work for the next two days.
I drove the lunar rover or went out on foot to explore, and you searched for valuable specimens in the crater alone, and completed the scheduled research with the equipment you brought. "
"Let me explore outside the crater."
As expected, Jim said, "You know much more than I do, and this crater itself is the most perfect and worthwhile place to study.
Therefore, it is too wasteful for you to go scouting and collect rock specimens. "
"OK", the division of labor is clear, and each of them does what they are good at. In a place like the moon, there is no need to fight.
After the two rested, they entered the lunar module for the fourth time to supplement oxygen.
Li Changheng raised his hand and looked at the special watch outside the space suit, "I will return in an hour, your task now is to set up the solar panels.
We had six hours to rest while the rover and lander recharged. "
Jim nodded, "OK."
Li Changheng reported to Houston, nodded with Jim, and started to leave the temporary base.
Fortunately, the battery technology is not up to standard these days.
Except for the lunar module and lunar rover with large batteries, the live broadcast equipment can be carried by individuals, but it cannot be filmed for a long time.
So for the safety of the astronauts, apart from Jim having a live broadcaster linked to the lunar module, there is also a fixed second one on the lunar rover.
As for the camera, it all depends on whether Li Changheng wants to take pictures or not.
As for why not walk in the first place.
It is because no one is going to explore on foot and find valuable ores and other objects in the case of a lunar rover.
Estimate the time it will take you to walk.
Take a step forward and follow the car print of the lunar rover back, and go to the rock.
After bouncing around for five or six minutes, Li Changheng suddenly thought why did he have to hide it from the top management of the United States?
The purpose of not letting ordinary people know is to avoid panic, but if the upper echelons of the United States know about it, what harm will it do him?
There may be disadvantages, but the advantages are definitely not small.
At least in the future, I will definitely get the support of those high-level US officials who know about this.
But then he shook his head.
Never underestimate the greed of human nature, and not everyone can be rational all the time.
If an insider is kicked out, it is not impossible to talk nonsense in the media.
Some people even use this secret as a talisman to do bad things unscrupulously, or even more unscrupulously to make money.
After thinking about it, Li Changheng decided to see what that thing is before talking about it.
After a few more minutes, I finally came to the side of the almost black rock.
At first glance, I thought this thing must be metal, and it really looked like some unknown animal.
But just to be careful, he didn't hit it immediately with the pickaxe hammer hanging on his waist.
Instead, he looked back and forth around the boulder for more than ten minutes, making sure that the metal giant was really embedded in the rock, and then reached out to touch it.
It's a pity that wearing a space suit, I can't feel anything at all.
Fortunately, even if there is no air on the moon, the percussion is only a vibration, without the unique sound of metal.
But that feeling made Li Changheng 100% sure that this thing is metal.
And this made him greatly relieved.
As long as it is not Zerg, it is not the worst result.
To put it bluntly, in case nothing can be done, as long as the aliens do not directly destroy all human beings, then surrender to the aliens.
People like him are always more valuable than ordinary people.
And there is hope only if you are alive.
Once in the alien civilization, it is a multi-civilization and multi-power world.
It is also better to run away and become a star thief than to be wiped out directly.
And among the intelligent creatures of the metal type, after much deliberation, it seems that Transformers are the only ones.
It is not impossible to confirm whether there are really Transformers in this world.
Just look at the Hoover Dam where Megatron was frozen in the movie.
It is also certain that the bumblebee came to the earth early in the morning.
There is even an earl family in England, which has existed for thousands of years as a guardian.
Thinking of this, Li Changheng suddenly felt that it was better to keep this matter a secret.
After all, if his guess is true, the upper echelons of the United States must have known it early on.
And the old man Philip, maybe he also knew about the earl early on.
The Americans landed on the moon one after another, perhaps just wanting to find more evidence.
Then the evidence was found, and they stopped going to the moon for decades for safety reasons.
etc.
Maybe I can do some abnormal performance. If the Americans really know something, they will take the initiative to find it.
Back on the lunar module, Jim asked with a smile, "Henry, did you bury that golden olive branch?"
Li Changheng was taken aback for a moment, and then thought it was better not to keep this thing.
In case there are Transformers, those Decepticons might pick up that piece of golden olive branch, and then find themselves from the name and golden seal image on it.
He lied to Jim a few words casually, then walked to the side of the solar panel, obviously checking, but secretly breaking the coils on it.
Once the sun shines and starts charging, this thing will short-circuit and burn 100%.
And because the moon has no air, it cannot burn.
In addition, the surface temperature is above minus 160 degrees all year round, so there is no need to worry about harming myself and Jim.
Sure enough, more than an hour later, the sun's rays shone within ten minutes.
A few electric sparks suddenly appeared on the solar charging panel, and then it stopped working.
If you want to fix it, let alone the moon, even if it is on the earth, it must be scrapped.
"Damn."
Jim, who was in charge of installing the solar charging panels, anxiously reported the matter to Houston, and then wanted to jump over to check.
"Wait, Jim."
Li Changheng immediately stopped him, "Don't worry about the battery board, we can't repair any problems anyway, first unplug the charging socket connected to the all-terrain vehicle."
