Prodigal son never prodigal

Chapter 437 A casual trip

Scientists do absolutely support projects like interstellar exploration.

Perhaps in the view of Ms. Zhao, a scholar who has studied both East and West and across liberal arts and sciences, the various shortcomings of human society are always repeated again and again, and the best way to deal with these problems is to keep moving forward.

For example, disputes in the South China Sea, chaos in the Middle East, and international conflicts are all, in the final analysis, competition for various resources.

It is nothing more than the development and change of various classes, ethnic groups and countries.

No solution.

But as long as you look beyond this scope and look at the vast universe, you will feel that the fussing over things in front of you is extremely ridiculous.

Because theoretically speaking, everything that is fought for on this blue star is as abundant as a sea of ​​gravel in the universe.

The difficulty may lie in reaching the threshold of jumping out of the earth and walking in the universe.

In order to cross this threshold, everything else can take a back seat.

In fact, compared to spending millions of dollars to buy a housekeeping robot that looks good, instead of hiring a nanny worth a thousand dollars a month, this will still have a huge market popularization process.

In fact, the aerospace industry is similar.

The cost is directly reduced, and the equipment originally planned for the manned lunar landing can be shared, and it can also pave the way for future manned lunar landings.

Originally, according to the domestic manned moon landing plan, the spacecraft alone would cost more than one billion. Adding all other peripherals, the budget should exceed 50 billion.

Recently, the three countries in the South China Sea and the South China Sea have begun to have internal disputes, and then even the countries surrounding the South China Sea have proposed to purchase such smart unmanned boats!
The market driving force can be imagined.

However, a military intelligent machine body that costs less than one million yuan can be sold for more than 30 million yuan!
Many countries are trying to sell off a few units, and it’s obvious that if you don’t buy them, you’ll be beaten!

The result of being beaten is that one cannot sit still.

In the past, technical cooperation mainly started after the Spring Festival, and the main force here assumed part of the funds.

It's too expensive.

Synchronize the launch of moon landing plans, Mars missions and Titan exploration missions.

Because Star Wars and space weapons all fall into this category, the moon landing of hundreds of thousands of kilometers has to be slightly later.

As a result, this sudden "special fund" quickly catalyzed the moon landing operation.

Therefore, not only the technology needs to be verified step by step, but the money must also be saved bit by bit.

Even the superpowers have to gradually save their food exports little by little to meet their capabilities.

You can go and not come back, and you don’t have to consider the survival needs of living organisms.

Previously, the domestic exploration trip, which included the entire process of landing on the moon and returning, cost 3 billion. If it only went up without coming back, it would only cost half of it.

Those who are willing to spend money now must be rich people or research institutions who are curious and try new things.

The annual domestic funds for this area are nearly 100 billion, most of which must be used for the low-Earth orbit, which is a three- to five-hundred-kilometer range.

Because there is no such strong urgency.

Seeing that the Yan and Qing brothers took the initiative to inject the proceeds from the sale of arms into interstellar travel, Ms. Zhao acquiesced in using the main production capacity of the intelligent robot super factory to deliver arms products.

All countries know the principle of this starry sea, but except for a few big countries, other countries simply cannot afford such a hugely expensive space game.

It is equivalent to sending a humanoid robot up first to test whether there are any problems in the whole process according to the manned standard, and to do the most realistic first-hand survey for manned moon landing.
Many things are ready-made!
There are still two billion US dollars left, give it some time and rub it in your hands immediately.

Super fast!
Ms. Zhao immediately caught Gai Qingyun to take relevant courses.

Astronomy, engineering thermodynamics, aerodynamics, materials and structures, automatic control principles, overall aircraft design, aerospace propulsion theory, avionics systems, etc...

There are tons of PDF files that haven’t been “imported” yet.

It’s not the end of the year yet, but the satellite city over there has already notified: “The weather conditions have been good recently, and it’s a good day to launch rockets and satellites. Do you want to join the queue?”

As one of the busiest rocket launch bases in the world, it is more than 200 kilometers away from the sports training base in Qionghai.

Yan Qing must talk about this in the live broadcast room: "The aerospace industry I mentioned to you after the Spring Festival, now thanks to everyone, every smart glasses and every monthly sports card you buy is piling up. It has become our step towards the sea of ​​stars. Next week we will launch this moon landing spacecraft in Qionghai. Everyone is welcome to come to the live broadcast room to watch with us..."

The live broadcast room must have been abuzz at that time.

Look at what those top internet celebrities are doing, showing off their wealth, bringing goods, and hyping up to make more money.

They are really exploring the universe here!
This directly resulted in the entire live broadcast room being flooded with more than 500 million domestic and foreign viewers when it was launched at the end of the year!

This has helped Weishi platform become the largest online live broadcast platform in the country and even the world, while also setting a series of records.

Rocket launches and spacecraft launches are no longer rare in China. Even astronauts are somewhat accustomed to going up to the sky, and the lunar landing probe has also been there several times.

The most exciting thing should have been the manned moon landing operation.

But inexplicably, this robot landing on the moon, named Mingyue Qingyun, has attracted great attention.

Maybe in the past, no matter how much space travel or landing on the moon was done, it would feel very far away. Even if we felt that my country was great, looking back, everything would still be the same.

That is still a matter for scientific researchers and a very small number of astronauts. We should move bricks and mortar and fish for fish. This time, at least hundreds of millions of netizens are running around telling each other: "Damn it, Qingyun Live is really going to go to the moon, and I made a contribution!"

"I also bought a few pairs of smart glasses and go to the sports city every day..."

"Haha, I got an annual aerospace card, and I push my kids to exercise every day. Maybe their generation will be able to go to heaven!"

"Not necessarily, not necessarily, but there is hope. Is it fun? Is the aerospace project really... related to this?"

"We must be able to contact them. I find it interesting to practice many projects. Their generation is so happy!"

This further promoted another wave of card applications from the sports group.

But everyone was stunned until they followed Yan Qing's live broadcast to the scene: "Two?!"

Why is manned moon landing so expensive? It’s because the entire plan is much more complicated.

To put it simply, all previous technologies are preparing for moon landing technology.

For example, the technology of a 400-kilometer-high space station consists of several rooms and halls that are gradually put together by moving things up one after another.

This technology will be used for the moon landing. One rocket will send the lunar module up, and another rocket will carry the manned spacecraft.

The conversion is then connected in lunar orbit.

It's like a person who is in charge of flying a high-speed train and stopping at a specific rail station, and then changing to a taxi to go home.

After all, taxis are the best way to safely drive into the community.

This is more expensive the first time, but we will leave a space station in the lunar orbit. Landing on the moon again and again will gradually make this high-speed rail station rich and useful, and it can also become a station for flying to other places.

After all, the moon has no gravity, so it is much easier to take off.

Maybe this will be the high-speed rail transfer point where countless people will set off in the future.

Hundreds of millions of netizens followed Yan Qing's live broadcast camera. As Party A who has spent tens of billions of dollars, of course he is qualified to walk under the huge rocket launch tower.

He explained the entire moon landing plan to everyone to the extent that his hat could fall off when he raised his head.

In about eight days, we will dock near the moon, then land on the moon. We will have a channel to broadcast the entire process live...

Of course, it was actually Gai Qingyun who relayed it to him in the smart glasses, and the guy could even say at the same time: Hey, hey, I'm getting ready to board the cabin...

Yan Qingcai quickly picked up her pace and took the elevator to meet Ms. Zhao.

As super Party A and technology companies that provide super intelligence, they are definitely qualified to send "astronauts" aboard.

For such a big event, Song Siyu and Qiu Wenfang will definitely come and show up.

Of course, both of them are here to gain popularity.

Song Siyu used the fact that the Sports Group can launch and participate in this kind of super aerospace project as a confidence, and he can use it when talking to partners all over the country and the world: "You know our rocket went to the moon..." Just to say hello.

So she brought thousands of sports city franchisees across the country who could spare time to come to the scene, and they sat proudly and nervously in the stands together.

Damn it, one rocket has a chance of something going wrong, but with two of them, the risk is squared or cubed.

At this time, He Shunzhi took Black and White Tiger to take care of Zhao Ling'er, and Gai Qingyun did not explain to her that part of his "soul" was currently in the spaceship on top of the towering rocket.

The little loli knows better than the female police officer what is actually going on, focusing on the smart glasses she is wearing.

By the way, this live broadcast has indeed given smart glasses another strong endorsement.

All users of the entire smart glasses product series can directly open the live broadcast room and see everything from the first-person perspective of Yan Qing's glasses!
I saw the launch tower holding the rocket like scaffolding, and it turned out to be like this.

The elevator is similar to that on a construction site.

Finally, together with Ms. Zhao, we watched Space Robot No. 13 in the dust-free space through the glass.

Wearing a dragon suit, no space suit, no pressurizer, no cooling fan.

Just waving his hand, and with the help of the staff, he stepped into the round hatch of the spacecraft, feeling as if he was going to act cute in a live broadcast room.

Netizens in the live broadcast room all have a sense of excitement that I can do whatever I want!

On the contrary, the Taiwanese girl was on the yacht outside the launch center with her own troops and some uncles from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Today, when we are together, we have already looked at the world and the universe. Who else can be more powerful than us?

While talking, he raised his cell phone ring to take pictures and send them overseas.

She is the only one who shows off my man's super fierce attitude.

Especially to capture the white smoke billowing from the rocket rising into the sky.

That's all she cared about.

At this time, the new Qingyun No. 13 live broadcast room will be opened, and everyone can follow Gai Qingyun and experience the journey to the moon from a first-person perspective.
