Chapter 1501: Poles of the moon

The first thousand five hundred and thirty-six chapters of the moon's poles
After hearing what his son said, Zhao Zhongyao said, ‘Detection is still necessary. Because of detection, we can know more secrets. ’
Hearing what Dad said, Feifei said, ‘Okay, let’s explore the back of the moon! ’
So, Zhao Zhongyao drove the flying saucer and landed on the moon. Zhao Zhongyao chose a relatively large ring crater, and then let the flying saucer fall into the crater.
After the flying saucer stopped steadily, Zhao Zhongyao began to observe the terrain to see which piece of soil he needed to study.
Feifei looked at his father and said, ‘Dad, what are we going to study! Do you want to study these craters? ’
‘Yes, we just want to study the age of these craters. In this way, we can know when these craters were formed by the impact. When we know when these craters were formed by impact, we know how these craters were formed. Zhao Zhongyao felt that as long as he could detect the age of these craters, he would know a lot about the secrets of the back of the moon.
‘Then how do we conduct research? Feifei looked at his father puzzled and asked.
‘Our flying saucer spacecraft is not an ordinary flying saucer spacecraft, our flying saucer is very advanced. There are a lot of detection tools above, and we can perform geological age detection. Said Zhao Zhongyao.
‘Okay, let’s watch Dad make a geological survey! Feifei looked at his father and said.
‘Okay, you are optimistic. See how I detect the geological age of these craters. After finishing talking, Zhao Zhongyao began to remotely control a small unmanned aerial probe. This small unmanned aerial probe has various mining tools on it. It can collect some rock samples from the surface of the planet and then return to the mother ship.
Feifei, Tiantian, and Qu Yuqian watched Zhao Zhongyao flying out of a special hatch on the flying saucer while manipulating a small flying vehicle. Then, I collected a small piece of rock on the wall of the nearby crater and flew back into the flying saucer.
When the unmanned aerial vehicle flew back into the flying saucer spacecraft with the rock sample. Zhao Zhongyao can analyze the composition of the rock and the time when it appeared in the special laboratory inside the spacecraft.
Feifei, Tiantian, and Qu Yuqian were just sitting in the cabin, waiting for Zhao Zhongyao to analyze the data about this rock.
The instruments Zhao Zhongyao uses now are also very advanced. Soon he analyzed the key data of this rock.
After analysis, Zhao Zhongyao knew that this rock was the rock on the moon. Only its composition has changed. It is not the same as moon rocks in other places. Obviously, this lunar rock was hit by a huge meteorite before. The high temperature generated at that time changed the chemical composition of this rock.
After analysis, Zhao Zhongyao knew that the time for the change in the composition of this piece of rock was about 10,000 years. Although ten thousand years, for an ordinary person, it is a very long time. But compared with the age of a planet, it is not worth mentioning.
After Zhao Zhongyao knew some data about this rock, he returned to the cabin from the laboratory.
Feifei saw his dad coming, so he quickly asked, ‘Dad, how is your analysis, are these craters really young? ’
At this time, Zhao Zhongyao looked at everyone and laughed, ‘Of course, the age of this crater is only about 10,000 years. Fully in line with my previous imagination. ’
‘So, the records in the Mayan Bible that we read before are all correct. These craters on the far side of the moon are really the result of an event that broke apart ten thousand years ago. Feifei looked at his father and said.
‘Of course, the data obtained from the rock sample I just tested is the same as the statements we have seen from the Mayan Bible. It's just that we just looked at the age of this crater. This is not enough to prove that the collapse of the earth 10,000 years ago is the direct evidence that caused these craters. We need to explore more craters before we can prove that these craters were indeed caused by the collapse of the earth 10,000 years ago. Zhao Zhongyao said again.
‘Then do we have to explore some more craters? Feifei said, looking at his father again.
‘Yes, let’s explore some more craters. If all the detection results are similar to this crater, it can prove that the sky and the earth broke apart 10,000 years ago. Zhao Zhongyao said again.
‘Okay, let’s explore some more craters. Feifei said again.
‘Okay, let’s keep on flying! It's up to me how to detect! However, you have to learn too. Now I am just showing you a demonstration. When we really start to explore the solar system, you can't just watch it, you must try it yourself. ’
Zhao Zhongyao knew that what he was doing now was teaching two children! They must learn to operate unmanned water heaters to collect rock samples on other asteroids or large planets and moons in the solar system.
‘Dad, we will take a closer look. Said Feifei.
'Yes! Dad. We will take a closer look. Said the same every day.
In this way, Zhao Zhongyao began to drive the flying saucer spacecraft to start the activities of detecting craters. Both Feifei and Tiantian stood by their father's side, carefully watching his father manipulating the unmanned aerial probe to continue the rock collection activities.
Feifei and Tiantian are both watching seriously. After all, for them, this is an opportunity to learn. In the future, when their expedition team is formed, when they start exploring the solar system, they will definitely complete this work independently.
In this way, Zhao Zhongyao conducted geological exploration of some craters on the back of the moon. The result of the detection is the same as the previous one. The data detected later is the same as the data detected for the first time.
With these data, it can be fully explained that the collapse of the earth 10,000 years ago was real. The so many craters on the back of the moon are the result of that 10,000 years ago.
‘Dad, is the data you detected now the same as before. Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao and asked.
‘Yes, it is indeed the same as before. It can now be fully explained that these craters are the result of the collapse of the earth 10,000 years ago. Said Zhao Zhongyao.
‘Dad, shall we continue to travel and explore on the back of the moon next? Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said.
‘Okay, we have now learned the secret of the back of the moon. You can leave here. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Feifei and said.
‘Then where should we go next! We have seen the front and back of the moon. What else is there to see in other places. Feifei said, looking at his father again.
'Yes! Dad, what else is good on the moon. Isn't it nothing good? On the moon, besides the crater, isn't it a crater? Said the same every day.
After hearing the words of the two children, Zhao Zhongyao thought for a while and said, ‘Although we have seen the front and back of the moon, we have not seen the two poles of the moon yet! I don’t think we can look at the moon’s poles again. ’
When Feifei heard Dad say this, he said happily, ‘Dad, what are the poles of the moon like. Is it similar to other places? ’
Listening to Feifei’s words every day, I also looked at Zhao Zhongyao and asked, ‘Dad, are the moon’s polarities beautiful! Are they all craters? ’
After hearing the words of the two children, Zhao Zhongyao said again, ‘how come! The poles of the moon are different from other places. ’
‘Oh, what’s the difference? Feifei became a little curious again when he heard his father say this.
‘Dad, tell me, what are the poles of the moon like? ’Every day, too, he became curious.
After hearing what the two children said, Zhao Zhongyao smiled and said, ‘haha, see how anxious you two monkeys are. It seems that you are really desperate for knowledge now! Okay, let me tell you about the two poles of the moon! ’
‘Okay, dad, speak up. Feifei said with a smile happily.
‘Dad, you have to talk more excitingly. Said with a smile every day.
‘Haha, it’s really wonderful to talk about the two poles of the moon! Ok! You can all listen well, let me tell you slowly! ’
Next, Zhao Zhongyao began to tell the two children about the moon's poles. Qu Yuqian sat beside Zhao Zhongyao curiously, listening to him telling stories about the moon's poles.
‘Before, we also launched probes to the two poles of the moon. We already have a general understanding of the two poles of the moon. When Zhao Zhongyao and the others were building the moon city, they had a general understanding of the situation on the moon.
Zhao Zhongyao said this first, then paused, then said again, ‘For residents who want to live on another planet, the first thing that comes to mind is the issue of water sources. After all, if humans want to migrate to other planets, the first thing they must solve is the problem of water sources. If this problem cannot be solved, it will be impossible to survive on another planet.
Water is the source of life. One prerequisite for people on earth to land and live on the moon is to have sufficient water resources. Scientists generally believe that the gravity of the moon is too small to attract water.
There are features of water ice in some permanent dark areas near the south pole of the moon. The neutron spectrometer carried by our previously launched "Lunar Prospector" spacecraft proved that there is a high concentration of hydrogen in the dark regions of the moon's poles, which is likely to be contained in water ice.
Our scientists intentionally caused the "Lunar Prospector" to crash on the moon, in order to make the surface of the moon emit water vapor. Several ground and space telescopes aimed at the impact area to observe whether plumes of steam appeared, but nothing was found. The inclination of the moon's rotation axis is only 1.5 degrees, almost perpendicular to the plane of the earth's orbit around the sun.
So when viewed from the poles of the moon, the sun is always near the horizon of the moon. If somewhere near the pole of the moon is hundreds of meters lower than the average height of the lunar surface, such as the Shackleton crater area at the south pole of the moon, it will always be in the shadow of the sun. These permanently dark areas are extremely cold and the temperature is only -(223～203)℃.
The water ice released when comets and asteroids hit the moon can gather in these cold regions because they will never be evaporated by sunlight. Scientists estimate that there may be more than 10 billion tons of water ice in the uppermost layer about 0.3m thick in the lunar poles. Although we built a lunar city on the moon, we established a lunar base. But we must understand whether there is water ice available for human use on the moon, as well as the size and distribution of water ice reserves.
If it is confirmed that there is water ice in the south pole of the moon, it can be melted into water to produce rocket fuel or oxygen, and a semi-permanent manned lunar base can be built near it. To this end, our scientists plan to launch another spacecraft named "Lunar Survey Orbiter". Its main task is to determine the lunar global radiation environment, draw high-resolution global topographic maps of the moon, and draw high-resolution hydrogen element distribution. Picture, detecting the light environment and temperature of the moon's polar regions, and determining whether water ice really exists in the permanent dark regions of the polar regions, providing useful data for the design and development of future manned moon landing spacecraft, and selecting for future astronauts and robots landing on the moon Possible landing locations.
The design mass of the "Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter" is about 1000kg, of which the mass of propellant accounts for 50%. The spacecraft will be equipped with six scientific instruments, including a lunar orbiter laser altimeter, a survey camera, a neutron detector, a lunar radiometer, a Raman-Alpha mapping spectrometer and a cosmic ray telescope. In addition, the spacecraft will also be equipped with a small exploration spacecraft named "Moon Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite" to find water sources by hitting the surface of the moon.
Only after we conducted such an experiment at that time, we did not see the results we wanted. It seems that there is no water at the poles of the moon. This is why we did not consider using the water resources on the moon at all when we built the lunar city later.
This is mainly because, first of all, we are not sure whether there are water resources on the moon. Also, even if there is, it is more difficult to develop it. Because of this, we intend to transport water directly from the earth to the moon.
Of course, the reason why we think so is mainly because we are a super huge Venus spacecraft. We have this super huge Venus spacecraft. Even transporting water from the earth to the moon is relatively easy.
