Chapter 488 (1/2)

With the separation of the space plane and the space station, the space plane immediately began to accelerate. A few hours later, the plane reached its limit in the universe, that is, Mach 50.

Since the distance between the earth and the moon is the farthest at this time, that is, about 400000 kilometers, it takes nearly two days for the space plane to reach the lunar orbit at the speed of Mach 50 plus the acceleration and deceleration time.

Of course, if the space plane arrived at the moon in a straight line at the speed of Mach 50, it would not take so long, just less than a day.

However, because the universe is a vacuum environment, it is absolutely impossible for an aerospace plane to reach Mach 50 in the universe at once. Even if it can, its internal astronauts can't do it. Therefore, it takes at least six or seven hours to add up the acceleration and deceleration time.

Navigation in the universe is boring and tasteless. After nearly two days of navigation, the space plane finally reached the lunar orbit, and was successfully captured by the lunar gravity and entered the lunar orbit.

Then, at the command of Zhang Feng, the person in charge of the overhead aircraft, the cargo hold of the aircraft was slowly opened.

Subsequently, five lunar orbiters were successively ejected from the warehouse. At the same time, under the command of the aerospace aircraft computer, these lunar orbiters also started their own engines and flew towards their predetermined orbits.

In order to more accurately explore the lunar environment, although this exploration of the moon is not a landing exploration, they also designed data exploration of different altitude orbits to explore the moon from different angles and heights, so as to provide data support for their space technology and landing on the moon in the future. In fact, these detectors are not just detectors.

These detectors seem small in size, but their internal functions are very powerful. In addition to exploring the moon, they also have all the functions of the navigation and communication satellites launched by Tiangong technology to the moon. In other words, these detectors are actually part of Tiangong technology's deep space exploration network.

Soon, these ejected probes have reached their respective orbits and began to focus their lenses on the moon, and then transmit these data to the aerospace plane. On the aerospace plane, after simple processing of these data, they directly transmit these data back to the earth.

With the first batch of data back to the earth Aerospace Center, Wang Bing and they couldn't wait to open these data packets and start looking up internal data and photos.

Wang Bin looked at the data and discussed them with each other from time to time. Especially when the lunar storm, ocean data and photos were sent back, everyone discussed more, and even some people were amazed.

”According to the data we obtained before, it is inferred that the storm ocean of the moon was formed by the impact of a super large meteorite. According to the inferred data, the super large meteorite hit on the spot is at least the size of nine medium-sized provinces in our country, and the energy generated by its impact is also very huge, at least millions of times that of the first human to know ”Energy.” in the command center, Qin pointed to the picture on the big screen.

”Yes! If such a meteorite strikes the earth, it can definitely cause the extinction of life on earth. Even with the current scientific and technological level of human civilization, there is no way to destroy such a large meteorite.
