After a moment, the depressed engineer said slowly:

"Everyone, is there a possibility?"

Um?

Hearing this, Director Terry sighed softly, with a bitter look on his face:

"It doesn't matter anymore."

the other side.

Although he said that he is not afraid of NASA's challenge, it would be a lie to say that Dendrobium Hua does not feel any pressure from NASA's launch of the "lunar exploration plan".

Because whether it is the "East China Sea Dragon King" or the "Looking Up Rover", once it enters the payload bay and takes off the arrow, it will be powered off, and then the equipment will enter a deep sleep mode and will not wake up again until it reaches the moon. This needs to be ensured

There can't be any problems waking up the system.

"The Phoenix Group did this for just a few reasons. Either they needed to launch Fufeng-3 to prepare for the next manned moon landing; or, in their launch mission this time, in addition to the 'East China Sea Dragon King'

No. 1 collector, and other payloads.”

In addition, there is also close inspection of the surrounding weather, accurate forecasts of temperature, humidity, wind and other related data!

It is no exaggeration to say that once the rocket is ready for launch within 48 hours, all staff at the entire launch base will be on high alert and tense.

You know, Chang'e 8 carries a lot of "small scientific research modules", which is a verification model of the "space base". Wouldn't it be possible to use "Fufeng 3" to carry more "small scientific research modules"?

At this moment, an engineer with an obviously Asian face suddenly raised his hand.

After speaking, he picked up the cigar on the table, took a deep breath, and then continued:

"Director, which one do you think is more likely?"

The status inspection of the rocket is also multi-faceted and has no blind spots.

Countdown to launch - 24 hours.

The scene fell into a brief silence.

It is possible for the Phoenix Group to increase experience in this way.

However, it is worth noting that in addition to paying attention to the status of the rocket itself, the rocket support team will also use drones to monitor the environmental status around the rocket and launch base at any time.

As soon as these words came out, many engineers in the conference room couldn't help but nod.

Also attending the meeting was Director William.

"While we don't know why they did this, it clearly goes against common sense."

What does it mean?!

"Let's leave this matter to the Yankees to worry about. I believe they also know the news."

Just as Hu Lai was sighing, there was a sudden knock on the door in the room where he was.

Indeed, the Phoenix Group's aerospace team is an extremely professional team, and it is absolutely impossible for them to do such an unprofessional thing.

"Next, let's wait until the 24-hour launch countdown begins tomorrow to refuel."

"No matter what the reason is, it doesn't matter to us."

Preparing for a "manned moon landing"?

"Could it be that in addition to the 'Donghai Dragon King', the 'Fufeng 3' also carries something they have not announced?!"

the other side.

Yurilev nodded without any surprise on his face. Apparently he had thought of this before coming.

"So, according to common sense, it is undoubtedly the optimal solution for them to use the mature and reliable Fufeng-2 rocket that has been launched multiple times, but they actually used it..."

Next is the status check.

"After all, according to the information we have, the Phoenix Group has only launched the Fufeng-3 carrier rocket once during the 'lunar flight technology verification'. For example, their 'Chang'e 6, 7, and 8' series all use more advanced

For the mature Fufeng-2, I think they may also need more launch data from Fufeng-3 to prepare for the next manned moon landing."

This fuel is generally refueled 24 hours before rocket launch.

On the one hand, this is because liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen have very strict temperature requirements and are easy to evaporate. If you add them too early, you will have to continue adding them in the end.

On the other hand, once the rocket is refueled, it is destined to take off and there will be no turning back.

At 6 a.m. on January 26, 2024, the fuel refueling of the Fufeng-3 launch vehicle was completed.
Chapter completed!
