Chapter 65 Controlling the map on the moon!

"Damn it, this is the location we have chosen a long time ago. There are rich rare earth resources underground..." The people from the European Space Agency were very unwilling and wanted to have a fight with the other party.

But obviously, on the moon, the Chinese base is far more advanced than them in terms of numbers and equipment.

They had no choice but to follow the agreement and find another place to establish a base.

"We were fooled!" When the top leaders of European countries heard the news, they were furious, but there was nothing they could do.

"If I had known earlier, we wouldn't have worked together to promote the New Moon Agreement. This would have been a big loss!"

"The Chinese Space Administration doesn't know how many scientific research stations it has established. We must launch lunar reconnaissance satellites quickly, otherwise they will not know what they have done!"

…

On the other side of the moon, next to the Russian scientific research station, when they went out to explore the geology, they found that there was also a Chinese lunar scientific research station nearby, and the distance was just outside the radiation range of their scientific research station.

Within fifteen days, China built a total of thirty-five "scientific research bases", of which three were from the United States, one from the Russians, and one from the European Union.

"China has too many lunar scientific research stations!" Some people from various countries have proposed to the United Nations, expressing their dissatisfaction with the provisions of the "New Moon Agreement" and strongly urging them to reduce the number of lunar scientific research stations.

They even launched a new proposal, but it was rejected by one vote!

"Thirty-five, a total of thirty-five temporary scientific research stations! Most of the resource-rich places are occupied by them!" A big shot in the US space department said angrily.

"They occupy these places. Whatever we do on the moon from now on will be within their radiation range!"

"We cannot abide by the Moon Agreement! We want to build military bases and more scientific research stations! And we want to allow private space companies to build bases on the moon!"

They regretted it. In fact, they are not the only ones. All countries have already wanted to regret it.

But this was already within China's expectations. It’s strange that they don’t regret any treaty or agreement that is unfavorable to them!

"Whether they regret it or not, we won this lunar turf competition with a big victory!" Cao Liang said with a smile at the China Space Administration, "With so many temporary scientific research stations, the resources in these places can be used for exploration and development.”

Sometimes, you don’t necessarily need to write it clearly in international agreements or bills. You just need to actually control these lunar resources. Are you afraid of what others will say?

"Xiao Du's life capsule is really a surprise!" Lu Hong said, "Thirty-five temporary scientific research stations were built in fifteen days, which caught them off guard! And on the bright side, We won’t take the blame!”

"We don't need to worry about other things. Now we can concentrate on building the lunar base." Cao Liang said, "We should follow Du Xingyu's previous design of Guanghan Palace and try to complete it in the fastest time!"

"Well, now that the underground fortifications of the 'Guanghan Palace' base have been completed, surface construction can begin." Du Xingyu nodded. The Chinese astronauts who went to the moon before were not idle and have been constructing the underground fortifications.

In order to prevent meteorite impacts or possible enemy attacks, they also built air-raid shelters underground.

"According to the current construction progress, we can basically complete the Guanghan Palace base in three years." He Jinghong said.

"Three years?" Du Xingyu frowned slightly when he heard this time.

Three years is too long. It takes three years to build a lunar base. In the future, more complex space fortifications will take even longer. Isn't there still enough time?

"What's wrong?" Everyone looked at him.

"Nothing, I just thought of some questions." Du Xingyu knew that this was the fastest speed that the lunar base construction could achieve. Humanity's power in the space field was still too weak, so he could only make further plans.

After the meeting, Du Xingyu was still thinking about this issue.

He has tried his best to promote the development of aerospace technology, but the current situation tells him that mankind is still far from becoming a space civilization. Under the current circumstances, if there is an asteroid impact in more than ten years, mankind will still have to sit back and wait for death!

"Funding expenditures are increasing, and soon there will not be enough..." Du Xingyu secretly thought that the space agency has received more budget than in previous years, but even so, it is still not enough.

In order to minimize the budget, Du Xingyu also arranged his scientific research according to the space agency's plan.

"This is far from enough... If you want to prevent asteroids with a diameter of tens of kilometers from hitting the earth, you must have space bases, space ports, space weapons systems, and just-in-case space cities... these, even if the whole country It’s very difficult to do it unless we can gather the power of the whole world.”

Du Xingyu knows very well that no matter how hard he works now, no one will agree to spend so many resources to develop and build these space facilities. Let alone getting the whole world to work together to accomplish it!

Du Xingyu once asked a teacher a similar question, and the teacher's answer was: "Only when there is sufficient external pressure will unprecedented internal unity be shown."

"That's right, unless all countries in the world realize that developing space technology is the only way out for mankind, only then can I gather the resources of the world!" Du Xingyu's thinking gradually became clear, "We must let the whole world put aside differences and work together. , there is only the 'World-Destroying Star'!"

Du Xingyu contacted the Southwest National Astronomical Observatory again and asked them for relevant news.

"It's Xiao Du!" On the other side of the video call was Wang Qing, an astrophysicist at the Southwest Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Wang Qing is in his fifties, but he is in good spirits, especially his eyes, which are particularly bright.

"Professor Wang." Du Xingyu said a few greetings and then asked: "Do you have any news about the matter I mentioned last time?"

"What about observing extraterrestrial asteroids?" Wang Qing said, "I have already investigated it and everything in the asteroid belt is normal."

There is an asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, and 98.5% of the asteroids observable by humans come from here.

Du Xingyu had previously asked the observatory to help observe the situation in the asteroid belt. Now it seems that everything in the asteroid belt is normal.

After hearing the news, Du Xingyu's mood not only did not relax, but also became heavier. The reason is simple. Most asteroids in the asteroid belt are rocky fragments only a few meters in diameter.

The orbits of Pallas, Juno, and Vesta with an average diameter of more than 400 kilometers are also normal, and the dwarf planet Ceres in the main belt is also normal. This means that if an asteroid with a diameter of dozens of kilometers will impact in the future Earth, then it is likely not from an asteroid, but from a farther area!

For example, there are countless asteroids and meteorites in the Kuiper Belt on the outer reaches of the solar system. Until now, humans have not been able to clearly observe the Kuiper Belt.

In the vast space, asteroids with a volume of tens of kilometers are almost undetectable, and because their own radiation is quite weak, without reflected sunlight or radiation, it would be difficult to see them with human space observation capabilities.

"Professor Wang, I also want observation data from the Kuiper Belt." Du Xingyu said.

"Kuiper Belt?" Wang Qing thought for a while and said: "Currently our observations of the Kuiper Belt are limited. If you need more information, I can help you contact the Haleakala Observatory in Hawaii. They have more observations of the Kuiper Belt than we do. detailed."

"Okay, I'll bother Professor Wang." Du Xingyu nodded.

Thanks to Zhang Kjie, Star Alliance Apostle, Lost Island Master, City of Fallen Angels, and Tianxia for the rewards.
