Vol 2 Chapter 1721: Copernicus Crater

Keke, go on. Qin Xinghe looked at the experts who were a little disoriented, coughed a little to remind him, and then asked Wu Hao.
Yes, Wu Hao nodded and looked at the people sliding the folding flat screens and said with a smile: "After exploring the Manilius crater, our Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover will head south, and then arrive at Qi. Hacigenus Moon Creek."
　　 Higinus Moon Creek, this is the largest moon creek in the sea of ​​gas, why, do you still want to continue to go to the bottom of the valley to probe for water? An expert seated opposite Wu Hao asked.
　　 Yes, Wu Hao nodded and replied: "We want to find out whether the solid ice we found at the bottom of the Moon Creek Valley this time is a special case or is it widespread.
　　 And this is also to understand the solid water content on the surface of the air and sea, and to accumulate reference data for subsequent exploration projects. "
"Although Higinus Moon Creek is much larger than the Moon Creek you have detected, I am not optimistic that there will be solid water at the bottom of the valley. Because these two Moon Creeks are formed by different factors, the one you explored is different. Although Chuyue Creek is short, it is relatively deep, and the canyon is relatively narrow. Therefore, if sunlight does not enter, there will naturally be favorable conditions for the formation of solid ice and reduce evaporation.
　　Although Higinus Moon Creek is relatively large and long, the canyon is relatively open, so I am afraid it is difficult to have solid water at the bottom of the valley. "An expert with gray hair and glasses spoke up.
　　 Hearing what this expert said, the other experts also nodded in agreement.
It’s the same with Wu Hao. He didn’t refute the expert’s words, but nodded and smiled in agreement: "You’re right, we also considered these factors. But without actually detecting it, how can we be sure of our speculation? Is it correct?
　　 Moreover, not only solid water can be detected at the bottom of these moon creek valleys, but also some deep layers of lunar soil can be detected, so we think this exploration plan is still very necessary. "
Seeing everyone nodding, Wu Hao continued to slide the map and said: "Explore and play Higinus Moon Creek. Our Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover will travel westward along the north side of Ukte Crater. Then follow the isthmus channel between Qihai and Shuzhao to enter Shuzhao.
After the end of the summer marsh, our Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover will detect the summer marsh, and then arrive at Eratoseni’s crater. At that time, it will detect this crater according to the situation. After all, from us According to the relevant data obtained in the previous period, the useful value of this crater is small after all. So if you can find a way to go down at that time, then the Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover will go down to the crater for detection.
If you can’t find a suitable way to go down, the Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover will abandon the detection of this crater, and then head southwest, passing through the Stadi crater with a slower topography. The most famous landmark on the moon. "
　　 "Copernicus Crater?"
　　 Looking at the crater on the satellite remote sensing map on the big screen, the experts couldn't help but become excited. You know, this is the most famous crater on the moon, but you can know how famous it is from his name.
Although the scale of Copernicus crater is relatively small, far inferior to those large moon seas, the time of formation of this Copernicus crater is relatively short, and the energy produced by the armor is also very terrifying. Its shock wave Debris from the sea of ​​dust has splashed over thousands of kilometers around the Copernicus crater, like the rays of the sun.
　　 Therefore, everyone is full of interest in this famous crater. I heard that Wu Hao and their Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover on the moon, can you not be excited?
　　 This can be said to be the most representative and famous crater on the moon, and it can also be regarded as the youngest crater on the moon. There must still be a lot of matter from the universe preserved in it, so if it can actually enter the Copernicus crater, then there will definitely be major discoveries. Zou Huanyi and Zou Lao affirmed Wu Hao's exploration plan.
　　 Another expert also nodded and said: "Apart from others, it was the first rover that could enter the Copernicus Crater. This is a great innovation worth remembering in the history of space development."
　　Wu Hao smiled upon hearing the words and said, "In fact, by comparison, I value the ability to discover something valuable.
　　 And as a famous lunar landmark, if a scientific research station or a lunar city is set up here, I think it would also be a good choice. "
　　 Set up a scientific research station here? The expert was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "If you factor in other factors, this is indeed a good choice. However, the terrain here is relatively complicated, and other resources may not be so abundant. Of course, it depends on the actual exploration results."
"I also don't think this is the best choice, but this is also one of the few sites we initially considered ~ EbookFREE.me~ The specific situation depends on the actual exploration results." Zhang Qu nodded. .
Wu Hao looked at Zhang Qu and said with a smile: "After exploring the Copernicus crater and its surroundings, our Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover will start all the way south and arrive at Zhihai. , The sea of ​​clouds, and gradually move closer to the south pole of the moon.
　　 Everyone knows that the closer you are to the south pole of the moon, the more complex the terrain will be. We don’t make rigid requirements for our plans in this area. If the exploration is successful, then continue to the south, infinitely close to the moon's south pole. If the detection is not smooth and the terrain is complex and difficult to pass, then for the follow-up detection plan, we have to give up. The Wangshu intelligent lunar lunar patrol rover will follow the edge of the lunar south pole circle, then cross the twilight line, and enter the back of the moon.
After 　　 reaches the back of the moon, it will still focus on detecting some related situations close to the Antarctic, and then go all the way north to explore some areas of interest.
　　 may cross the equator again, reach the northern hemisphere of the moon, and begin to approach the north pole of the moon.
　　 But these exploration plans have to be put to the end, because we are not sure whether our Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover can stick to such a long-distance maneuver detection.
　　 After all, the environment on the moon is too complicated, especially on the back of the moon, the environment is more complicated. In addition to withstanding the alternation of high and low temperatures, it also has to withstand radiation from the sun and the universe at all times.
　　 So we are not sure whether the Wangshu intelligent lunar patrol rover can withstand these challenges. "
