Earth Era

Chapter 109 Darkness

Through the radio built into the space suit, Zhao Huasheng heard a slightly thick male voice: "Hi, guys, hello, we are here to pick you up. Is this journey going smoothly?"

"It went well, but the scenery on the moon is a bit boring." While speaking, an astronaut swiftly lifted up a box of unknown materials and put them on the lunar rover.

There is a space behind the lunar rover for loading lunar material samples, and it is just right to put the materials brought there.

While chatting, several astronauts loaded the supplies onto the lunar rover, and then a total of five people boarded the two vehicles respectively. Under the guidance of the navigation equipment, the lunar rover continued to move crookedly forward. .

The moon has no magnetic field, so naturally there is no such thing as north and south. Here is an ancient desolation and loneliness, and there are no landmark buildings or terrain. The surroundings are as thick as water, and even the iconic things cannot be seen. But the astronauts driving here are not worried about getting lost. Because there are at least two satellites orbiting in the sky of the moon, providing accurate position information for the astronauts.

Through the glass on the helmet of the space suit, Zhao Huasheng can clearly see these scenery. There is a powerful searchlight on the lunar rover, which can illuminate at least hundreds of meters away, but no matter how far it shines, the scenery Zhao Huasheng sees is always desolate. Gravel and dust are the eternal tone here, and occasionally there will be a small hill or a meteorite impact crater, which can bring a little change here.

As he continued to move forward, Zhao Huasheng suddenly noticed a bright spot from a distance. The bright spot was small at first, but as the distance approached, it continued to brighten, and finally Zhao Huasheng saw its whole picture.

It is a great building that is so shocking that it cannot be added. In this boundless darkness, it crawled on the ground like a giant beast, watching it quietly. When the lunar rover came in front of it, a door opened quietly, and the lunar rover drove directly in. Then the hatch behind you closed. At this time, several astronauts and Zhao Huasheng left the rover. By the way, the supplies were moved behind another open door. After everything was settled, the door was also closed. After waiting for a while, Zhao Huasheng suddenly heard a barking sound.

The existence of sound proves the existence of a medium such as air, otherwise sound cannot be transmitted. So Zhao Huasheng knew that after being isolated from the outer environment of the moon, it began to inflate and pressurize. As the air pressure increased, Zhao Huasheng saw above the spacesuit. The bulge caused by too much internal pressure also deflated. After waiting for the reading on the instrument to reach 100%, an astronaut said: "We can take off this spacesuit."

When the aerospace industry just started, putting on and taking off spacesuits was a very troublesome task, which could not be done by one person. However, with the emergence of the explosion of human civilization and technology, spacesuits have become simpler and more advanced. It is no longer necessary for a person to put on or take off a spacesuit with too much effort.

Zhao Huasheng took off his spacesuit, saved them here, and then entered the main building of the lunar base through the corridor. Here is spacious, bright, full of humanized and technological design. In addition to some discomfort caused by the change of gravity. There is not much difference between this place and the comfortable villa above the earth.

Two astronauts went to arrange the supplies, and the other two astronauts accompanied Zhao Huasheng to look around the moon base casually, and explained to Zhao Huasheng how to use the various facilities by the way. and some caveats.

"There is a planting area, because the method of multi-layer planting is adopted. Although the place is not big, the food it produces is enough for two people. We have left many plant seeds here, and each seed has a corresponding The planting method here, the temperature adjustment, humidity adjustment, watering, fertilization, harvesting, pruning and other processes are all automatically controlled. When you plant plants, you only need to set up the automatic planting equipment according to the data on the instruction manual. parameters. They will be taken care of very well by the robot.”

"This is the entertainment area. Here you can open or close the data connection channel with the earth according to your wishes. You can freely choose whether to synchronize data with the earth database. If you choose to synchronize. The latest releases carefully selected by experts music, books, movies, etc. will be sent here."

"This is the rest area. You can choose the parameters that suit you to set the temperature, sound, bed height and softness, etc. If you want to sleep under the stars, you can turn on this switch. At that time, the ceiling It will become transparent, and the starlight will be reflected here. You don't need to care about radiation or interstellar meteorite impact. First of all, compared to a specific area, interstellar meteorite impact is a very small event, and even if it It finally hit here, and the high-strength protective layer can properly protect your safety."

"This is the restaurant and kitchen area. The automatic cooking robot has stored 3,079 cooking methods. You only need to put the prepared raw materials here, and it will automatically cook the dishes for you. .There is no need to worry about the taste of the dishes they make. Every parameter of them has been precisely calibrated by a team of gourmet experts and culinary experts, and the cooking robot is no worse than any top chef on the planet.”

"This is a scientific research area. We are equipped with the latest powerful computers and the most sophisticated observation equipment here. Because of the special environment, the resolution accuracy of the optical telescopes and radio telescopes here is no worse than any giant telescope on the earth. If you want to communicate with your colleagues on Earth, you can choose to turn on the data switch here, and any top scientist on Earth will be very happy to communicate with you the latest scientific data discovered."

"Here is the power module. Its power source is mainly the chemical and nuclear fission fuel stored in the base, as well as the solar power panel array placed several hundred meters away from the base. You don't need to worry about the lack of energy, as long as there is the sun , the energy supply here will never be cut off.”

"This is the tool and maintenance area. Here are the installation and maintenance materials for all the modules of the entire base, as well as the corresponding replacement parts. If there is any failure, you can follow the maintenance manual or the guidance of the earth experts. Repair them. You have had two years of professional training on Earth, and I believe this will not be a hindrance to you."

"This is the air and water circulation equipment area..."

"This is the waste recycling area..."

Under the leadership of the two astronauts, Zhao Huasheng spent about three hours visiting the entire lunar base, getting a general understanding of the equipment and regional distribution of the lunar base, and having a general understanding of the lunar base. After looking at the last place that needs attention, Zhao Huasheng nodded slightly, still without the slightest expression on his face.

"Then... from now on, this place belongs to you." The astronaut spread his hands and said to Zhao Huasheng.

The delivery of the lunar base has been completed, and the two astronauts also put the supplies at the designated place, so the four came to confess to Zhao Huasheng together, and then they walked into the isolation cabin, where they put on space suits , leaving the moon base.

Through the camera installed outside the lunar base, Zhao Huasheng clearly saw a lunar vehicle carrying four astronauts heading for the landing module ten kilometers away. After boarding the landing module, the lunar rover will be abandoned here, and Zhao Huasheng can control the lunar rover through the remote control device and come back.

Sitting in front of the surveillance screen, Zhao Huasheng stared blankly at the rover getting further and further away, and finally disappeared into the thick darkness. After a while, the surveillance equipment photographed a bright flame in the distance. Zhao Huasheng knew that the landing module took off. The landing module will dock with the Houyi spacecraft in orbit around the moon, and then Houyi will take them back to the skylab and then back to the earth.

Watching the fire in the dark sky finally disappear, Zhao Huasheng knew that at this moment, he was really the only one left on the moon. From this moment on, no matter what Zhao Huasheng looked at, he would feel a sense of loneliness and bleakness.

Zhao Huasheng also came to the isolation cabin, and after putting on the spacesuit, he came outside the moon base. Anyway, there is a navigation system in the space suit, and Zhao Huasheng is not worried about getting lost, so Zhao Huasheng wandered above the moon, walking in one direction, and he didn't know how far he walked, until the light from the moon base completely disappeared from him. until it disappears from the eyes.

Zhao Huasheng simply lay on the surface of the moon, staring blankly at the stars in the sky, and kept watching there until the space suit began to issue warnings of insufficient energy and oxygen levels.

"Your goal has finally been achieved. You finally broke away from human society and came to live on the moon alone... But why, I feel that you are very unhappy?" At this time, the voice of the long-lost plasma life form appeared in Zhao Huasheng in mind.

"That's my business, it has nothing to do with you." Zhao Huasheng said indifferently, "Start waiting, when you can see the sun here, when the sun's rays can reach here... I will construct a relationship between you and the sun civilization for you." communication link." (to be continued~^~)
