Chapter 53 – Lunar operation

“Did they do it so quickly?” Romon Losov, the Russian Space Agency, looked at the screen and sighed: “We are a step slower!”

The Russian Space Agency’s idea is actually similar to that of China. They also plan to land on the moon before the Americans return to the moon. Everything is ready!

Who knew that they were caught off guard by the China Space Administration. Now, they can only watch Du Xingyu plant a red flag on the moon!

“The Chinese have landed on the moon!” The Indian Space Agency, everyone looked at this scene with envy, and they hoped that it was an Indian who was standing on the moon at this moment!

Unfortunately, the wreckage of the Indian Lunar-2 probe that crashed last time still reminds them that India does not have this capability yet.

“Hua Xia people have landed on the moon, they are really amazing!” Some people in the island country watched the live broadcast, feeling deeply.

“They are really good, maybe we can send scholars to study!”

On the moon, the two astronauts Shen Yan and Su Peng behind Du Xingyu also set foot on the lunar soil.

“It’s interesting to jump up here!” Because the gravity of the moon is only one-sixth of that of the earth, Du Xingyu can jump up easily. He is jumping on the moon, experiencing this wonderful feeling.

Shen Yan; “…”

Su Peng: “Du Gong, we are going to perform the task! Shen Yan, you go to check Yutu 2 and I will put down the Yutu 3 lunar rover.”

“Okay!” The female astronaut Shen Yan went to check the Yutu-2 unmanned lunar rover, which had been on the moon for nearly a year.

And Su Peng put down the Yutu-3 lunar rover in the lunar module, activated the button, and the folded lunar rover began to unfold, forming the appearance of a mountain bike.

“Dear viewers, now we are about to carry out the mission of the monthly scientific expedition, so we can’t continue the live broadcast. See you next time!” The following pictures are all scientific research secrets, so the live broadcast cannot be continued.

“That’s it? I haven’t watched enough yet!”



“Please, don’t turn off the broadcast, okay?”

“I just want to see what the surface of the moon looks like. Is it so difficult?”

“It’s gone if you watch it really hard!”

“Anchor, your tens of millions of popularity have been turned off, and other anchors are afraid to die of soreness!”

No matter what the fans said, the live broadcast signal was cut off.

“Yutu 2 was slightly damaged, but the sampling task was completed.” Shen Yanhui reported.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Okay, send the sample back to the lunar module and let Jiao Yunmeng cooperate with you.” Du Xingyu said, “I will go to the inspection site with Su Peng!”

“Received!” Shen Yan and the astronaut Jiao Yunmeng who stayed behind on the lunar module continued to execute the characters, while Du Xingyu and Su Peng got on the Yutu-3 lunar rover.

They also have the most important task, which is to find a place where they can build a lunar base! This is also their biggest mission to the moon!

The analysis of the soil, rocks, and composition of the moon has actually been done for so many years in all countries.

And if you want to further develop the moon, you must establish a moon base! Otherwise, people will spend huge sums of money every time they go back and forth to the moon, taking huge risks.

If there is a lunar base, these problems will be solved. The lunar base is also an important task for grabbing territory on the moon and establishing a frontier position for space exploration!

“Command center, we are ready to go!” Su Peng shouted.

“You can go!” the command center replied.

Before leaving, Du Xingyu looked around, first observing the azure planet, and then looking towards the boundless universe.

Fortunately, there was no asteroid capable of destroying the human world this time! It seems that my efforts to land on the moon in advance are still useful!

“The scenery here is really shocking!” Su Peng sighed as he drove a lunar rover and drove on the moon. “It’s worth it to be able to come to the moon once in my life!”

“One time is too little, and I will come often in the future.” Du Xingyu took the telescope and observed the surrounding terrain.

Near this coordinate is the location that the lunar rover has explored a long time ago.


On the moon, there are bumpy craters everywhere. And because there is no atmosphere protection, there is a large temperature difference between day and night, space radiation, and meteorite impacts.

It is very difficult to establish a lunar base directly on flat ground! And it costs a lot!

So after discussion by experts from the space agency, they decided to try to find a small mountain on the moon and initially build a small base in the form of a “cave dwelling”.

This cave has natural heat preservation and heat protection functions. The mountain can also block lunar dust and space radiation, making it easier to create a closed aerobic environment.

With the cave-dwelling lunar base as the core, several astronauts can stay on the moon for a long time, transport materials and personnel through the lunar spacecraft, gradually expand, and finally build a large-scale lunar base in the true sense!

Du Xingyu and Su Peng’s task is to survey the terrain, explore the nearby soil and rocks, and find a suitable place as a base for cave dwellings.

This time, they plan to stay on the moon for ten days, complete the preliminary work, and then set off to return to the earth.

According to the guidance of the Chang’e satellite, Du Xingyu and Su Peng quickly found the previously selected mountain and began geological exploration.

A few hours later, Du Xingyu rode a lunar motorcycle with soil and rock samples back to the lunar module for analysis. By the way, Shen Yan and Jiao Mengyun were asked to change shifts. He and Su Peng were drinking water and eating in the lunar module to replenish their energy.

Scientific research work is very boring most of the time. After three days of measurement and data analysis from the previous Chang’e project, Du Xingyu and others finally found a suitable location.

This is a natural cave with enough space. As long as it is properly modified, a lot of cave digging can be avoided.

Outside the cave, there is an empty flat land suitable for landing the lunar module and driving the lunar rover.

“First, build a signal station above the cave!” The three began to build the signal station while transporting materials and storing them in the cave.

In order to show that this is the territory of China, they also planted red flags around.

“Before we leave, we have to build a small ecological space.” Du Xingyu said, “I will now divide the work.”

“Su Peng and I laid solar panels to construct an energy system. Shen Yan and Jiao Mengyun worked in caves to build confined spaces. One of us must always stay on the lunar module to handle emergencies and contact teammates. Work in turns. ,Start now.”

“Received!” The four divided their work and started to work.

Above them, lunar exploration satellites of various countries are looking for their tracks. The Lunar spacecraft Lunar is still flying along the moon’s orbit, waiting for their return.

“The solar panels have been laid and the power system is complete.”

“The confined space has been completed, the air pressure is normal, and the water circulation system is normal…This ecological space is expected to last for half a year!”

In the cave, they used the materials they carried to build a small ecological space that could be repaired by the astronauts who arrived here.
