FIELD: astronautics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aerospace engineering, particularly, to spacecraft. Device for delivery of tourists from near-moon orbit to the surface of the Moon and subsequent return to Earth consists of three elements that ensure the task. First element of the system is the lunar orbital ship (LOS). LOS is the second stage of carrier rocket. LOS delivers two separate equipped modules of lunar vehicle (LV) in take-off module (TOM) and landing module (LM). TOM and LM have all required systems. Modules are attached to the compartments of the compartments using detachable connections on pyro-locks installed on the upper and lower face frames of the modules. Along longitudinal axes of the compartments inside them there are guides installed, along which the yokes are fixed, which are fixed on the upper and lower face frames of the modules and used for unstressed removal of modules beyond the LOS. Spring pushers are used to remove modules from compartments. LOS is lowered to the surface of the Moon by means of a liquid-propellant rocket engine of a landing module with a deep thrust throttling. Four-post chassis of LM from folded into working state is translated before descent to lunar surface. Take-off from the surface of the Moon is carried out using a liquid-propellant module of the take-off module.
EFFECT: higher convenience in use.
