Chapter 522 European and American manned moon landing plans

"Fuck! China actually wants to start manned landing on the moon, and will carry out manned landing on the moon next year. Isn't this intentional? They want to compete with us!?"

"It's so irritating! That fireworks feast gave China courage! Are they really so sure that they are not afraid of setting off fireworks like us?"

"That damn big devil, Satan, how could he appear in China! He should have been born in the West. Without him, our advantage would have been maintained for at least ten or even twenty years!"

"Sent a man to the moon? Is it that easy? Look at the fireworks feast before!"

"Our 2025 moon landing plan has not yet announced a specific time. China held a meeting and said that it will land on the moon in 2025. Is the moon landing so simple? Can manned landing on the moon be carried out with just a slap on the head!?"

"Shit! Am I reading that right? Is China going to launch a manned moon landing? Today is not April Fools' Day, right?"

"."

When the news reached the United States, it also caused an uproar. Everyone felt that they had seen it wrong, or that today was April Fools' Day, and they felt hard to be confident.

As someone said, when they were once the hegemons, Americans were full of confidence, magnanimity, and humor. But since their status has been shaky, they have become as irritable and unreasonable as menopausal women.

They are more anxious, but they are helpless!

After all, China now has 6 aircraft carrier fleets. Among the 6 aircraft carriers, 2 are conventionally powered aircraft carriers and 4 are the world's advanced nuclear powered aircraft carriers. Six aircraft carrier fleets cruised in the Chinese waters, protecting the Chinese waters. Such a powerful force, coupled with the roadbed strength, was like a turtle shell.

Not long ago, China tested a hypersonic missile with a flight speed of Mach 10 and a boost-glide ballistic form, which is a semi-ballistic re-entry spacecraft. This kind of hypersonic missile can kill all air defense systems instantly.

In terms of missile technology, China is the world leader and has its own trump card. No one dares to say that they will be able to defend against China's missiles.

Moreover, China is no longer the ineffective air force it used to be. Now China has built a modern and advanced "big air force". From time to time, an elephant walks, which has become a favorite among military fans around the world.

Even some military games, with the Chinese army as the background, have become the favorite army of many game fans, and have made this type of military games popular again.

And this piece of public opinion, in order to cater to the votes, some people soon promoted that NASA would definitely land a man on the moon in 2025. This pressure continued to increase as public figures came forward, so that NASA had to give a time The mission is to send astronauts to the moon on the special day of January 1, 2025, to prove NASA’s strength.

Not only in North America, but also in Europe, ESA is also actively promoting public opinion. After all, ESA has been very hard-working in recent years, with annual funding of less than 2 billion euros. The Galileo navigation system once envisioned has not been fully networked and can only It is considered a semi-finished product. Although it has local protection, the Galileo navigation system can only be marketed in Europe. Except for Europe, no one is willing to use the Galileo navigation system. They must either use the Beidou navigation system or choose the GPS system.

It can be said that the aerospace technology that ESA was once proud of has been surpassed in all aspects, and ESA is facing the dilemma of having its funds cut. After all, Europe wants high welfare and makes a difference in the fourth industrial revolution. Funding for something as unimportant as ESA will be cut.

ESA has received news that many people are already proposing to cut ESA's annual funding by two-thirds, which makes ESA unable to sit still.

There just happened to be such an opportunity, and naturally things went smoothly. The result was that all of Europe was suddenly filled with news about the space race and the introduction of space resources, emphasizing the importance of space, and even publicizing that if Europe loses space, then Europe's future will be It's bleak, Europe has no future!

To be honest, Europe has realized the importance of space very early and has entered space very early. However, Europe has many good things, but there is only one word - expensive!

As a result, the further they got to the back, the more they lost their competitiveness. Later, they simply let China launch the satellites they made into space.

And now, after ESA's push, the result is that in just a few days, not only has ESA's funding not been cut off, but 22 European Space Agency member states have approved a budget for the next five years, with a budget of up to 100 billion euros. The highest budget in the history of the European Space Agency.

ESA also held a press conference as quickly as possible and released a package of ESA's ambitious space plans. For example, ESA will completely network the Galileo navigation system within three years, and officially launch manned lunar landings in Europe in 2029. Europeans left European footprints on the moon.

When Qin Yuanqing saw these overseas news about aerospace engineering, he smiled meaningfully, good, very good, very good!

Their increased investment in the aerospace field means that their investment in other fields will decrease. After all, the economy in both Europe and the United States is not very good, and for some reasons, they cannot let go and print money. They can only go to Harvesting servants to replenish blood, plus they are lagging behind in the field of controlled nuclear fusion. Controlled nuclear fusion is a real big project and is extremely expensive. It is absolutely impossible to conquer controlled nuclear fusion without burning money.

If we maintain high investment in aerospace engineering and controllable nuclear fusion at the same time, it means that other fields will have to drastically reduce funding, otherwise there will be no way at all.

Or, it is to cut high welfare, but this is simply unacceptable to these developed countries. Anyone who dares to do this will be kicked out of office!

It can be said that by relying on this step to directly transfer some competition to the competition in space, not only can we seize the initiative, but also give China a huge advantage.

After all, the International Space Station completely ended its service last year, streaking a ray of light from space and then falling into the Pacific Ocean.

It also means that, except for China’s ‘Tiangong’ space station, there are no other space stations in space!

Maybe they will think that it is just building a global navigation system and a manned moon landing project, but soon they will find that they must build a space station. Although China is only a "Tiangong" space station now, don't forget, China's The construction cost of the "Double Ring Space Station" project is as high as three trillion yuan. The general science fiction photos of the "Double Ring Space Station" are pictures and models that every science fiction enthusiast and aerospace enthusiast must collect. If they don't want to fall behind, they have to build a space station much larger than the International Space Station. The cost of the International Space Station is US$100 billion, which is still US$100 billion ten or twenty years ago.

Now, if you want to build a space station comparable to the "Double Ring Space Station", it will cost one trillion US dollars, or even two trillion US dollars!

There is no doubt that this is a bigger project!

For such a huge project, whether they build one individually or jointly, both parties will have to spend a lot of money, and where the money comes from, it can only be compressed from other places!

This will form a vicious cycle. After all, at this point, it is difficult for aerospace engineering to bring short-term benefits. Some benefit periods are even as long as ten or twenty years, and maybe they cannot bear it for that long!

This is a conspiracy, a naked conspiracy, an unsolvable conspiracy!

After Qin Yuanqing attended the seminar on the manned moon landing project, he stayed in the capital for another week, and then accompanied the leaders to a place in Inner Mongolia. Once upon a time, this was a vast desert, and the progress of the desert was blocked by the Three-North Protective Forest. pace.

But now, the former desert is gone, replaced by a lush green area. This is the result of the desert management project, turning the desert into a green space.

Although there are a few sporadic deserts, these are preserved features and allow future generations to remember that this place was once a desert.

It is expected that within two years, deserts will be completely eliminated in China.

"Dear leaders, according to actual measurement data, the rainfall here last year increased by 100mm compared with previous years, but there were no more sandstorms in Beijing and Chang'an!" Academician Xie Daoxin, as the chief engineer of desert control, personally accompanied Qin Yuanqing and other people.

"Carbon neutrality is our commitment to the world, and we have been working hard for this goal! Desert management is a powerful action for carbon neutrality!" The dean held a telescope and looked at the desert that was covered with vegetation, and then filled with Power said.

Although the vegetation is not tall, there is no doubt that desert management in recent years has been effective. Using scientific methods, deserts can indeed be eliminated and the environment improved!

The dean stood high and could see far. He knew very well that China had suffered from sandstorms in the past. In the past, the capital was filled with yellow sand from time to time. Both the economic losses and the impact on the image were huge, so Huaxia The construction of the Three-North Shelter Forest has been carried out unremittingly, and huge manpower, material and financial resources have been spent, and the climate in Beijing has been greatly improved.

However, this time using scientific methods, not only can the desert be eliminated quickly, but more importantly, the cost of governance is completely within the acceptable range of China, and huge benefits have been generated in the short term, and the benefits will soon exceed the investment in governance. .

The total investment in desert control projects is 800 billion yuan, of which 350 billion yuan comes from social charitable donations. The actual higher-level financial allocation is 450 billion yuan. In the past few years, due to treatment projects, areas that once suffered from sandstorms have disappeared, rainfall has increased, and the river water has become stronger. An obvious change is that the sediment modulus of the Yellow River is decreasing. .

And more importantly, this has turned more than two million square kilometers of desert into green space. This will be the living space of China in the future, which is enough for China to easily feed such a large population without having to strictly control it at all times like before. Follow the red line of cultivated land.

Of course, this will happen in the future, ten or twenty years from now!
