Chapter 145 Overturned

In fact, these eight lunar rovers are all remotely controlled. Now we only use two to do some experiments.

That is to say, they don’t have to really climb step by step. If there are higher value research goals nearby, they can quickly run over to study.

Now is not the first time for humans to come into contact with the moon, and not every centimeter of the moon's surface is worth studying, but due to the speed limitations of the unmanned lunar rover, scientists can only play with this kind of "carpet-style" scientific research.

Of course, it would be even better if the "carpet" and "running" could be combined.

Now, the eight new moon rovers of the Navigator are here.

In fact, this remote-controlled lunar rover is very similar to the way a man driving a lunar rover was moved before Meriken. Both require quick judgments from human hands, eyes and brains, rather than slow calculations from computers.

Why can a person drives a lunar rover reach 17 kilometers per hour?

It's because there are drivers driving it.

What pits, stones, aliens are there in front. The driver can make judgments quickly like he is on Earth, and then drive over, bypass or stop.

If the direction of progress is basically flat, with only small ups and downs, no deeper lunar craters, and no large rocks, just use the "super highway" of 17 kilometers per hour to rush over.

The same is true for remote control cars. The difference is that there is no delay when someone is on the scene. However, the driver of remote control cars is on the earth, and there is delay when the driver of remote control cars is on the earth.

Therefore, the speed of the remote control vehicle is limited to 10 kilometers per hour, and the usual use is even 5 kilometers per hour.

It is to give the driver enough reaction time.

If the remote-control driver sees dangerous craters and large rocks ahead, the data given by the detector is seven meters, so even if there is a delay, the driver can remotely control the lunar rover to stop.

So if you want to play with a remote control car, you need to meet several conditions.

First of all, the detection system must be sensitive and fast, and can quickly give the distance and size of the more eye-catching target. It is necessary to measure "sinks" and "protrusions".

The equipment in the past was not good, and the accuracy and speed were not enough, but now there is no big problem.

Then, it is appropriately limited speed and extended reaction time, as mentioned earlier.

Then there is the driver's problem.

In addition to requiring the eyesight and reaction of a normal driver, you also need to know how to predict it.

Needless to say, the driver must have this, that is, there is a stone or pit in front of you, and you have to judge how far they are from you, and then you can react quickly.

The prediction is the unique skill of the driver of the lunar remote control vehicle, because what they want to fight against is the delay in Earth-Moon communication.

If a driver on Earth finds a pit in front of him and finds it in time, he does not need to make a sharp turn. He can slowly turn a large arc to ensure the smoothness of the vehicle.

It is not possible for the driver to remotely control the lunar rover on the earth. If you find that something is wrong, it has actually been more than a second. Wait until you do some action, it will take more than a second to pass to the lunar rover.

So when you feel that you can turn a corner, it is actually too late, and all you have to do is to stop the car immediately.

Fortunately, the lunar rover is not fast, and it is impossible to fly like an earth rover. It can only be dozens or one hundred kilometers per hour, and its average speed is only five kilometers per hour.

The requirements are not too high.

Of course, the driver must receive training, and the better the better, because it still retains a speed of 10 kilometers per hour. If there is really a "predictive flow" veteran driver, this speed will be unlocked.

If it is an ordinary remote-control driver, it will definitely be on the brake most of the time, which will seriously affect the detection speed.

Tang Chao felt good.

After the results of a 10-meter test came out, he set the secondary target at 50 meters.

This time it was also very relaxed, the road surface was relatively flat, and no dangerous craters and stones were found, so it was completed quickly.

Then there were 100 meters, 200 meters, and 500 meters. Tang Chao and another driver drove smoothly, passing in a straight line, bypassing, stopping, turning, and setting off again...

Because it is now testing the control, I don’t think about scientific research anymore, so I will run around first.

The speed of 5 kilometers per hour gave them the feeling of driving Formula 1.

Especially when another car followed him and took a photo, the scene was so shocking.

Even if the small wheels only walk 1.39 meters per second, they will turn quite quickly. The lunar soil it brings up high and falls quickly, and can fly far away.

That's so spectacular.

The audience also screamed.

【Niu Bi!!】

【It actually succeeded!】

[If this is the case, combined with those slow unmanned detection rovers, the range of human exploration on the moon can be greatly increased.]

[That's right, and there is no need for real people to go up. After all, it's too troublesome to go up.]

[Yes, the ideal solution is to replace humans with the machine to explore space, but humans need to go out, so they still need to be promoted later.]

[It's much better. When the astronauts go up in the future, just remotely control these vehicles in the lunar module, haha.]

[Yes, let these remote control vehicles detect the place first. If necessary, the astronauts can go directly, and there is no need to come out and look for it bit by bit.]

[I also want to remotely control the moon... Damn, I've been overturned!]

【Damn, it’s really a mess!】

[Captain Tang's lunar rover has overturned!]

[Hahaha, what I said is embarrassing, wasting a lunar rover.]

【That’s right, what’s the point of showing off? It’s quite rude if you don’t have any skills. Now it’s a failure.】

[It's shameful to waste scientific research property!]

The surface of the moon is not the earth. Not only does it have a flat road, the weathering speed cannot keep up with the earth.

The crater formed by a meteorite falling down can remain in its original state for a long time and will not be weathered by wind and rain slightly flatter.

In addition, it was a small slope before, and although the angle was not large, it just blocked the small hole.

The most important thing is that there is a slightly raised stone next to the pit.

If you drive alone to a small pit or stone, the top of the lunar rover will most likely tilt, but the problem is not big.

But now the two are combined, and the position distance is just right, and the wheels are just at the lowest point and the highest point, so the inclination will be greater.

In addition, the previous small angle affected the detection efficiency, it was too late to see the real situation and data warnings.

As a result, the lunar rover entered the pit on one side and went uphill on the other side, and suddenly it overturned.

It’s because of lack of experience that I underestimated the small slope.

In fact, the correct way at that time was to slow down, leave enough time to detect and react, and then pass after confirming that it was fine.

But it doesn't matter, it's not a problem.

The data shows that all the equipment is fine and is operating normally, and the lunar rover simply collapses.

If an ordinary lunar rover falls, it will be dangerous.

If you turn over, you can also try to lift the car with the rotation of the sun wings.

But to be successful, the sun wing must be hard enough, the motor must be strong enough, and the sun wing must be long enough.

If you can't satisfy all three aspects, then you're embarrassed and lie down quietly.

If it is a car that is going back and forth, or even just turning it upside down, let alone it.

His remote control lunar rover is not an ordinary product, it is a normal one. It has a robotic arm installed on it, and the motor power is absolutely sufficient.

The moon has low gravity and the rover is also small in weight.

Tang Chao manipulated the robotic arm and supported the lunar rover bit by bit.

At this time, another remote control car also came over, using the same robotic arm to push it on one side, and successfully overturning Tang Chao's remote control car.

The command center cheered and applauded!

amazing!

The first time the lunar rover successfully rescues another lunar rover on the moon was achieved - achieving!

The overturn not only did not cause any impact, but also completed an experiment. This cost-effectiveness is no one else.

Moreover, the barrage of clamoring to make Tang Chao apologize just now disappeared in an instant, all of which were cheers and celebrations.

Now, this experimental task has come to an end and can be regarded as a complete success.

In an instant, the big screen in the command center turned into a big red screen.

[Warm congratulations to the successful first flight of the Long March 9 carrier rocket and the Moon Palace 2 test mission]
Chapter completed!
