Great Country Academician

Chapter 690: Stealing business!

Since the Artemis lunar module failed to land on the moon in the manned lunar landing race in June, and NASA lost to the Xinghai Research Institute and needed a space rescue by its opponent, the entire aerospace field has fallen into a downturn. .

As a major space country that has lasted for more than half a century, the pride formed in this field is deep in its bones.

But it is obvious that after the launch of the Artemis project, the NASA authorities did not do what everyone expected.

Not to mention landing on Mars, they almost failed to land on the moon.

Without China's Xinghai, their astronauts would have even died on the moon.

Although most Americans do not think that China has completely surpassed them in the aerospace field, at least there is no doubt that the other country has caught up in the aerospace field.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally difficult for Americans to arouse their passion and pride in the aerospace field.

It can be said that almost most people on the Internet are angrily criticizing NASA, believing that NASA has tens of billions of funds every year but has no development.

After all, in the 1960s, the United States completed the first flight of the Saturn V, with a low-Earth orbit carrying capacity of up to 140 tons, and a terrifying success rate of thirteen successful missions, a 100% success rate.

Even in the last century, they sent a man to the moon, leaving the whole world behind.

But now, decades have passed, their return to the moon almost failed. It can be said that this has almost severely damaged the confidence and belief of the Americans in the aerospace field.

This negative situation was not relieved until NASA issued a press conference two days ago.

The "SpaceX Crew Dragon" commercial spacecraft will carry a former astronaut and three tourists to space in a week, starting a twenty-four-hour space travel journey.

Even at a press conference, NASA Administrator Bilson publicly declared that space travel may become NASA's normal space planning in the future.

This news undoubtedly attracted the attention and discussion of many netizens.

After all, in normal history, whether it is manned spaceflight or manned moon landing, strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with ordinary people.

After all, almost all astronauts are selected internally and need to undergo long-term physical training and exercise before they can board the spacecraft and perform space missions.

The huge acceleration caused by traditional chemical fuel launch vehicles during launch is also a load that ordinary people cannot bear.

The "SpaceX Crew Dragon" commercial spacecraft is completely different. Except for one former astronaut, the rest of its space mission are ordinary people who have not undergone strict training.

Although the money spent is still considerable and beyond the reach of ordinary people, at least technically, normalized manned spaceflight and space tourism have become possible for ordinary people.

As for the cost, it can only be said that every new technology that emerges will almost always be expensive at the beginning.

Just like devices such as mobile phones and computers, in the last century they were only available to the government or the super rich. Today, not only everyone has a mobile phone and a computer, it is not far behind.

Even for many people, it is normal to have two or three or more mobile phones and computers.

Therefore, this report from NASA immediately aroused many discussions on Facebook, Twitter, blogs and other websites.

【Space travelling? Can ordinary people do it too? 】

[This is so cool, so cool, so cool. If I can take a spaceship to the sky, then this may be the most wonderful moment in my life! 】

[It seems that NASA has not completely disappointed us. It’s time to start the real space age one step ahead of other countries! 】

[The "SpaceX Crew Dragon" spacecraft is more than just a spaceship! It is the future of mankind! Because only when a technology can be popularized by all the people, can it be a real development! 】

[But 65 million meters of gold is so expensive! At this price, I'm afraid it can only become a toy for the rich. 】

[It doesn’t matter, the emergence of any new technology is expensive, but we can wait, right? It will only take a few years or more than ten years, and I believe it will be reduced to a level that everyone can bear. 】

[I heard that according to the theory of relativity, traveling in space will make you younger because time passes slower in space than on the ground! 】

[I hope the price can be reduced. If it can be reduced to 100,000 meters per trip, I will definitely go up there once! 】

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and many netizens on major social platforms in North America were excited by NASA's officially launched "space travel" plan.

Ordinary people can also go to space and overlook the earth from the moon hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, or even further away. This is undoubtedly a huge attraction for most people.

The hot discussion was not only on external Internet platforms. Soon, with the reposting of some video bloggers, technology bloggers or people with ulterior motives, the space travel press conference soon spread to China, arousing the attention of many people. Notice.

【Space travelling? Can ordinary people go up there without physical training? If I could, I would be so awesome! 】

[Isn’t it said that space travel is very demanding on the body? 】

[Yes, most people cannot handle the ultra-high acceleration during launch. Therefore, the United States is still strong in the aerospace field. The implementation of manned moon landing is just catching up. 】

[Watching NASA’s press conference, there was actually an old man among the three people traveling in space! ! ! I hope that when I get old, I can have a healthy body and enough money like him. I also want to take a look during my lifetime! 】

[Awesome, aren't you afraid that Yoneda will be crushed out when launching? 】

[Tell me the price and it will make me give up! 】

[Sixty-five million meters of gold per person, based on the current exchange rate, is close to 300 million. 】

[I can’t afford to offend you, so I’m leaving! 】

Compared with the public on the Internet, domestic netizens focus more on the price of space travel.

This press conference held by NASA can be regarded as setting an "official price" for the current 24-hour space travel.

Sixty-five million meters of gold!

This price makes many people gasp. It is indeed a space travel, it is really crazy!

While netizens were discussing this matter, on the scarf, there was a strip with a name called "Mountains, Rivers and Seas", which was officially recognized by the scarf as the "Father of Controlled Nuclear Fusion", "Academician of the Academy of Sciences", "Academician of the Academy of Engineering" and other titles. The pictures posted by the blogger once again caused a sensation on the Internet.

"Journey to space!"

"Aerial View from Space"

The content of the scarf is very simple, with only four words and a few pictures.

But netizens who paid attention to the news immediately went completely crazy.

【Fuck! It’s the God of Sichuan! The long-lost God of Sichuan! The living God of Sichuan! 】

【First! 】

[Oh my god, the old man Sichuan God actually remembered his bib account password? 】

[Sichuan God, Sichuan God, have you made any friends? Can I? 】

[Wait a minute, didn’t you guys take a look at what Chuan Shen posted? 】

【What the hell? Space travelling? Academician Xu, has he gone to space? 】

【Awesome! Is this a photo taken aboard the Xinghai? Is the earth outside the window? 】

[Confused, just now we were still discussing that NASA’s space travel can be used by ordinary people. The aerospace technology is awesome, but now Mr. Kaishen has just jumped on it? ? ? ? 】

[Kawashen. Is he in such good physical condition? Can you go to space on a space shuttle? ? ? 】

【No? Aren’t those who engage in scientific research generally weak? 】

[That’s a technological breakthrough! I have heard before that ordinary people can fly on the Xinghai Space Shuttle. Now it seems to be true, and the technology must be quite reliable, otherwise it would be impossible for Kaishen to go up there. 】

[Hiss~, since Sichuan God can go up, then we can definitely go up too! Space travel is no longer a dream for ordinary people! 】

The discussion among netizens was not over yet, Shanchuanhehai’s scarf account posted a new message.

"Do you know about space travel, moon travel, and Mars travel?"

"Not 65 million, not 55 million, but only 19.98 million, and you can experience a 'space travel' that is no different from an ordinary airplane!"

"Those who are interested can register in advance on the official website of Xinghai Research Institute! The institute will conduct screening!"

"Note: To register, you need to be an adult and in good health, with no hidden diseases; and pay space travel expenses in advance!"

"All rights of interpretation belong to Xinghai Research Institute and myself. Thank you for your attention!"

A short paragraph of text and several space photos of Prince Faisal and UAE Representative Abdul Rahman are also included in the blog post.

Under the picture, there is a short paragraph of text.

“A warm welcome to our first time travelers, Prince Faisal from Saudi Arabia, and Prince Ahmed Abdulrahman from the United Arab Emirates!”
