Chapter 62 "New Moon Agreement"

When people mention the Antarctic Agreement, they can't help but think of what happened in Antarctica. At that time, European countries divided Antarctica and almost completed the division of Antarctica.

But when the Soviet Union and the United States, the most powerful countries in the world at the time, arrived, they declared the division of Europe invalid. Then, regardless of their opposition, they directly established scientific research stations in Antarctica and occupied most of the Antarctic territory.

In Antarctica, China's control area is only more than one hundred square kilometers, while the United States has tens of thousands of square kilometers! The difference is hundreds of times!

"If the New Moon Agreement is based on the Antarctic Agreement, we can quickly establish several bases and occupy resource-rich areas on the moon!" Du Xingyu said. "When the Moon Guanghan Palace base is built, our actual control area will become the largest in the world!"

"Yes, Du Xingyu is right!" Cao Liang said, "That's what it means above. We must find a way to occupy as many resource-rich areas on the moon as possible before the New Moon Agreement is signed."

"At the same time, it should not be too public, otherwise other countries will definitely modify the contents of the Moon Agreement when they see it."

Du Xingyu touched his nose and said, "I have an idea."

"Say it." Everyone looked at him.

Du Xingyu continued: "According to the current international consensus, a space for human activities that can support four or more people on the lunar surface for half a year can be considered a lunar base. Our life capsule fully meets the conditions! Just need to add more With the addition of an inflatable radiation shield, we can create multiple 'moon bases' in the shortest possible time."

"As long as we do this... we can catch them off guard! Capture the most lunar resources!"

"What a great idea!" Everyone laughed, "The trick is because they don't know how much supplies we can transport to the moon. As long as we hide our skills, we can catch them by surprise!"

…

One month later, above the moon.

At the American lunar base, six American astronauts were welcoming their new teammates. Four more astronauts got off the lunar module.

"Welcome!" Astronaut Eddie went up to hug them.

"Great, now that you are here, we can build more strongholds!" Astronaut Titus smiled.

"This place can barely allow us to survive now. You need to expand the living space when you come!" Eddie pointed to the small cave behind them.

This is built to imitate the Chinese cave dwelling base. It is much smaller than the Chinese cave dwellings, but it can survive with some hardship.

"We are ordered by the Space Command to build more than three strongholds within this month to occupy the most resource-rich areas on the moon." Americans have been exploring the moon for decades, and the resources on the lunar surface are distributed It's all clear.

In the communicator, the commander of the American Space Force said: "In one month, the "New Moon Agreement" will be signed. At that time, these territories will directly belong to our great United States! Now, it is time for your service!"

"Then hurry up! We have to be careful about the Chinese and Russians next to us, especially the Chinese, there seem to be a lot of them coming!" Eddie said.

"Although there are many of them, they are too stupid and keep digging caves!" the commander laughed. The American lunar satellite has been monitoring China's lunar base.

In addition to digging in caves, those Chinese astronauts also built a very large radiation-proof greenhouse on the lunar surface. It seems that people are working under the greenhouse every day, but what they are doing cannot be seen by Americans.

"One month later, we will promote the signing of the "Moon Agreement" at the United Nations General Assembly. By then, as long as it is a 'scientific research site' we occupy, it will be surrounded by our territory. If the Chinese are willing to dig caves, let them dig them, you guys We must start construction as soon as possible to seize resource points," the commander said.

"Yes." The American astronauts began to work. Before departure, they also needed to expand their living space.

A few days later, the Russian lunar module landing site also welcomed three new team members, who were also building their own base.

China's Taiyin goes back and forth between the earth and the moon once a week. In the past few times, lunar exploration satellites from the United States and other countries were able to take some pictures.

But later, they not only covered the area near the moon landing site, but also accurately measured the orbits of satellites from various countries.

Satellites can only take clear pictures when they are over the target area, and the actions of Chinese astronauts have all missed foreign reconnaissance satellites.

There are only a few satellites on the moon now, and we haven't even had time to launch specialized military reconnaissance satellites, so comprehensive monitoring is impossible.

"What are the Chinese doing?" All countries are confused and want to find out, but that is the moon, and their aerospace capabilities do not support their large-scale reconnaissance on the moon.

The only thing that reassures everyone is that apart from conducting geological exploration on the lunar surface every day, Chinese astronauts do not seem to have any intention of establishing bases elsewhere to grab territory.

"They have killed so many people on the moon, and it is very difficult to survive! They must be working hard to build a lunar base. This time the "New Moon Agreement" must be passed at once! They cannot be given more time!" This has become a problem for various countries. According to the consensus, as long as it is stipulated that a base can only manage an area of ​​​​the lunar surface, it will be useless no matter how many people there are in the Chinese lunar base.

The United Nations General Assembly was held as scheduled, and all countries sent representatives to participate in the conference.

Before coming, everyone already knew that this conference was to revise the previous "Outer Space Treaty" and formulate a new "Moon Agreement."

At the conference venue, representatives from various countries have already taken their seats, waiting for the conference to begin.

The Secretary-General stood on the stage and announced: "After discussions among the member states, we have expanded the Moon Agreement adopted on December 5, 1979 from a total of 21 articles to 102 articles. I will read these below. Agreements, every agreement will be put to a vote.”

"Article 1: The moon (including orbit around, to and around the moon) shall be used only for peaceful purposes; the use of force or the threat of force on the moon is prohibited; the placement of nuclear weapons or any mass destruction on the moon is prohibited Sexual weapons.”

In this article, the previous prohibition on building military bases on the moon has been deleted.

“Let the vote begin on Article 1 now!”

Regarding this article, all countries had no objections and passed it unanimously.

"Article 2..."

The content of the agreement had been discussed by representatives of several major countries before the meeting. Most of the treaties were passed smoothly.

All the way to the treaty on the development and utilization of lunar resources.

"Article 96: The moon and its natural resources are the common property of mankind. Countries can only explore and utilize the lunar surface and below the surface, and must not seriously damage the lunar environment; its scope is determined by the lunar science and technology that countries have or will soon establish. The test base is determined...the details are as follows..."

Finally we have arrived at this article, which is also the most controversial article in the entire "Moon Agreement".

Those small countries do not want to agree to this because they do not have the ability to go to the moon and can only watch the big countries develop on the moon.

Of course, the major powers don’t care what they think. The competition for lunar resources among the major space powers is about to begin!

Thank you "Feng" for the reward!

Thanks to the honest Dunzi, Deep Space Galaxy, Xiong Xiaojun 1990, and rice-loving Taozi for the rewards.
