"...5, 4, 3, 2, 1, ignite, launch..." Seeing this shocking scene, I jumped up excitedly. At the special moment of 18:59:57 on October 1, China's second lunar exploration satellite "Chang'e" 2 was "lifted" into the sky by gauzy smoke at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center surrounded by mountains.
I thought about it carefully. As soon as the "ignition" sound ended, orange-red flames burst out, as if they couldn't wait to send the rocket into the sky. Amidst the smoke, the rocket soared into the sky at an astonishing speed, and the big words "China Aerospace" on it were full of meaning under the sunshine. The Chinese people's dream of lunar exploration finally came true amidst cheers!
Currently, Chang'e 2 was ignited at 18:59:57 on October 1, 2010, and was successfully launched at 19:00. At 1533 seconds after flight, the star and arrow separated and the satellite entered orbit. Online information tells me: The Chang'e-2 satellite is referred to as Chang'e-2, also known as the 2nd satellite. Chang'e-2 is the sister satellite of the Chang'e-1 satellite and was launched by the Chang'e 3C rocket. However, the CCD camera mounted on the Chang'e-2 satellite will have a higher resolution and other detection equipment will also be improved, and the data about the moon detected will be more detailed. The main mission of "Chang'e-2" is to obtain clearer and more detailed lunar surface image data and lunar polar surface data.
You see, how free the satellite is in space! Sometimes it rolls, sometimes turns sideways, sometimes rises, sometimes falls, which makes me cheer and cheer for it constantly. Although this is just another lunar exploration. I believe that in the near future, China will definitely have its first manned spacecraft arriving on the moon. Because China’s development will never lag behind others! If others can do it, we can do it too!
Tonight, the bright moon is in the sky. Looking at the bright moon, I seem to see the figure of "Chang'e 2".
Looking at it, I seemed to have turned into a satellite, flying towards the moon...
