Chapter 372

In the radar laboratory of the base, Gu Lu met several other core members of the Chang'e-4 team.

Li Changsheng, 30 years old, serves as the head of measurement and control technology in the Chang'e-4 team and comes from Modu Aerospace Electronics Co., Ltd.

Zhang Long, 28 years old, is the general manager of the Chang'e-4 propulsion system and was transferred from the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.

Zhu Yu, 32 years old, is responsible for the command and dispatch of the Chang'e-4 model. Like Zhang Long, he is from the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.

Wait a few people.

Including Wu Zheng, there are a total of ten core members of the Chang'e-4 project team.

All nine of you are here now.

There is only one person on the Long March series rocket side who is responsible for scheduling the work there.

It has to be said that the team members of Chang'e-4 are all young.

The average age is only thirty years old.

Among them, the oldest one is a 40-year-old engineer.

The youngest one is a young man about the same age as Gu Lu.

This 24-year-old young man is responsible for the overall design of the Chang'e-4 lander and plays a pivotal role.

At thirty-two years old, Wu Zheng is considered older in this team.

Young teams have the benefits of young teams.

Be hardworking and motivated!

Moreover, you are not bound by routine and can often come up with many good and novel ideas.

In terms of professional skills, the members of this team are certainly qualified.

It's just that maybe in terms of experience, they are a little less experienced than those old scientists.

In the past, the National Space Administration usually handed over such heavyweight projects to an experienced team.

But this time, the National Space Administration decided to use a batch of fresh blood when formulating the Chang'e-4 lunar exploration plan.

This is also an attempt.

So far, it seems that the results of this attempt are still very good.

…………

In the radar laboratory, everyone sat around an oval conference table.

Wu Zheng was sitting in the main seat, controlling the computer to project the image onto a large screen in front of the conference table.

A picture appears on the screen.

This is a conceptual diagram of the trajectory of the Chang'e-4 probe.

Wu Zheng explained to Gu Lu, "From the official takeoff of the probe to the landing on the back of the moon, the whole process can be roughly divided into four links."

"Earth-to-moon transfer, near-lunar braking, circumlunar flight, and official landing!"

"Among them, the last link is the most important part." Wu Zheng emphasized his tone, "From the lunar flight orbit to the official landing on the lunar surface, this link is the core of the entire lunar exploration plan and the top priority!

"

"Once something goes wrong in this link, the entire lunar exploration plan will be in vain!"

"So, it is for this reason that we chose to ask Professor Gu to come over for help." Wu Zheng turned his head and looked at Gu Lu.

"What do Mr. Wu mean?" Gu Lu didn't quite understand.

"I hope Professor Gu can help us calculate the posture adjustment and orbit change parameters of the Chang'e-4 probe from the lunar orbit to the landing stage!" Wu Zheng said the purpose of inviting Gu Lu here.

The so-called attitude adjustment and orbit change parameters refer to the values ​​of various parameters when the Chang'e-4 probe enters the landing preparation orbit through orbit change in the lunar orbit.

"Of course, if possible, Professor Gu can calculate the complete orbit of Chang'e-4, that would be great." Wu Zheng added with a smile.

After listening to Wu Zheng's words, Gu Lu smiled helplessly.

"Professor Gu, is it difficult?" Wu Zheng asked.

Gu Lu smiled and waved his hand, "It's not very difficult, but it takes a lot of time. I guess I have to be prepared to stay with you for the night."

It's already five o'clock in the afternoon.

Gu Lu guessed that he wouldn't be able to make it back tonight.

Wu Zheng laughed and waved his hand, "We have many rooms here and all kinds of benefits are pretty good. Let alone staying for a day, Professor Gu can stay here for a year."

"Professor Gu, we are not in a hurry. The detector is not expected to be launched for another three or four months. We can get the data within a week." Wu Zheng waved his hand and said with a smile.

"I know you are not in a hurry, but I am. There are still a lot of things waiting for me at the school!" Gu Lu smiled helplessly, "I will try to get the data out before noon tomorrow."

Wu Zheng nodded, "Professor Gu, you can make your own arrangements here. I have already prepared the room and equipment for you, as well as various data. I will have someone send it to you later."

After saying that, Wu Zheng took Gu Lu to the room where he worked.

That's a small office.

All kinds of equipment are complete.

Gu Lu glanced at it and nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, an employee from the project team walked in holding a folder that was almost half a person's height.

"Professor Gu, this is all kinds of data about the Chang'e-4 probe and the moon. If there is anything missing, please contact me and I will have it sent over immediately." Wu Zheng said with a smile.

Gu Lu asked the employee to put these documents on his desk, then picked up the top document and flipped through it briefly.

Here is a topographic map, a topographic map of the far side of the moon, which depicts various terrains on the far side of the moon, including hills, basins, etc.

There is no data attached to it.

Because no probe has ever landed on the lunar surface, this topographic map was drawn with difficulty by domestic experts through various foreign documents and several photos of the far side of the moon taken by NASA through the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.

Made of.

Gu Lu holds this lunar terrain map in his hand, which is the result of several months of hard work by several scientists.

The other documents placed on the table are almost the same amount of work.

Gu Lu sighed inwardly again about the difficulty of the lunar exploration plan, and then said with a bright smile, "Don't worry, Mr. Wu, just leave this place to me. I will hand over the data to you before noon tomorrow."

Mr. Wu walked up to Gu Lu, patted Gu Lu heavily on the shoulder, and said in a sincere voice, "Professor Gu, please excuse me."

Gu Lu smiled slightly, "Everything is for the motherland and the people!"

Space is another battlefield that major countries are competing for.

China, which is currently in the first echelon of its space exploration program, certainly cannot fall behind.

The Chang'e-4 lunar far side exploration plan is an important part of China's space program.

If Gu Lu had the opportunity to participate, he would naturally have to work hard to shine.

Carve your name on a corner of China's aerospace industry.

After a brief chat with Wu Zheng, Wu Zheng left.

Gu Lu closed the door of the office, poured himself a cup of coffee, sat on the office chair, turned on the computer, and started working on his own.
Chapter completed!
