v2 Chapter 65: Moon landing (1/2)
”Uh, did anyone of you see my gloves?” Collins emerged from Zhang Heng's side like a ghost, holding a bowl of unrehydrated pork with coriander potatoes.
”I don't know, but it seemed like it floated over my head a quarter of an hour ago.” Zhang Hengdao.
”Did you just watch it fly away?”
”It seems so.”
”Ok.”
”You can look in the lunar module, it should be floating in that direction.”
”Corinth, did you get the wrong toothbrush?” Armstrong also probed at this time, looking serious.
”Have you? I obviously put a name on it.”
”Yes, and you put it on my toothbrush.” Armstrong paused. ”Also, remember to clean the fuel cell, who's the turn to clean up?”
Zhang Heng raised his hand, ”It's me.”
”Let's do it,” said Collins. ”You still have big things to do today, don't you?” After that, he patted Zhang Heng's shoulder again.
”Don't worry about me, Neil will come back safely.” Zhang Hengdao.
Corinth frowned, and didn't understand what Zhang Heng meant.
But at this time the radio communication system also heard the voice of the ground control center, ”Apollo 11, here is Houston, and you will enter the orbit of the moon in a quarter of an hour, and the call is over.”
”Receive, Houston, we will be ready to finish.” Armstrong said, then turned to Zhang Hengdao, ”You have not had breakfast, eat more, we have a lot of work to do after landing on the moon, when the time comes It will be nervous. ”
Zhang Heng nodded, but he knew very well that he would not stay on the moon for too long. Zhang Heng looked down at the starfish on his hand again, and there was only one minute left at 5:55. According to the time flow of reality and copy, that means he has only 4 hours left in the world.
That's why he told Collins that Neil would return safely. As for himself, once he leaves, he won't step into the command / service cabin.
Twenty minutes later, the three of them suspended their work and came under the porthole. At this time, there was a relatively clear field of vision outside the porthole, and the surface of the moon could be seen. Now the Apollo 11 is only one distance from the moon ground. A distance of more than a hundred kilometers.
The moon itself does not glow, but it can reflect about 7% of visible light.
Through the portholes, the three can see the undulations and gullies on the moon's surface, just like the surface of a honeycomb. Pottery is known as plagioclase, a type of volcanic rock cooled by magma. The lunar mantle is made of stronger basalt, which has more iron than the mantle. As for the inner lunar core, it is melted iron and contains a small amount of sulfur and nickel.
”Well, this seems to be our destination,” said Collins. ”We are going to be separated soon, I hope you will not miss me too much.”
”Thank you, Michael, you can eat all the chicken salad while I'm away.” Zhang Heng replied.
”I wouldn't take this as a joke.” Collins pretended to think seriously for two seconds before saying, ”Take care of both of you, I will wait for you here, and we will return to the earth together.”
Armstrong remained as quiet as ever, only nodding when he heard the words.
Zhang Heng made his preparations for waiting a month ago, gave up those daily necessities, only brought the game props on his body, and put on a space suit. After that, he and Armstrong entered the lunar module ”Eagle”, Armstrong Close the hatch.
”Houston, here is the Eagle, David and I have entered the lunar module, the load-bearing legs have been deployed, and they are in good condition and finished.”
