Chapter 608

Kagoshima space launch center.

It is affiliated to the Space Science Research Institute of the island countries and the launch site of the deep space rocket of the island countries. It has been used for decades and still carries out the launch plan every year.

Edo City calmly looks at the launch tower of Miao launch site, with lofty sentiments and ambitions.

In a small country, there are two space launch sites. As can be seen from these small points, their national ambitions have never been small.

They are located in an island country with frequent disasters and scarce resources. Every year, they are warned to have crisis awareness, so they have been looking for new territories.

So they have an ambition that is totally different from their own size.

For them, the arrival of a new era is another opportunity.

Huaxia has successfully landed on the moon and retrieved Yueyan, which will take the lead in the coming changes.

The oil resources on earth are not their share, but they are different on the moon. As long as they have technological development, there is an inexhaustible supply of helium-3, which is an inexhaustible wealth and a place for them to fulfill their imperial ambitions.

China has the Chang'e plan, the United States has the Hercules plan, Europe has the dawn plan, Russia has the Yuri plan, their island countries also have the "moon reading plan".

In the age of great navigation, the British island country will become the sun empire that rules the world. If they succeed, even if the next sun empire does not belong to them, it will definitely become one of the world powers.

Over the years, they have been pressed too hard by the United States. Once the change comes, it means chaos. It's also their chance to be equal to the world powers.

"Director Edo, the base called to say that the rocket manufacturing is nearing the end, and it will be completed in about a month." A female assistant came and interrupted the thoughts of Edo city.

"Well, I see."

Waiting for the female assistant to leave, Edo city continues to look at the launch tower dazed.

A month, not long, not short.

No one is sure. Maybe this is where their empire set sail.

……

South America, the North Atlantic coast, Guyana, is the location of the European Space Launch Center.

Ariane's second launch site is busy.

As director of the European Space Agency, young Werner was also on the scene, watching the progress of preparations for the site.

Soon, the rocket will be delivered for assembly. This time, their goal is very clear, that is to start the long stranded "dawn plan".

Dawn plan is a European lunar landing plan, which has many similarities with the new space plan "Hercules plan" of the United States. The main contents of the plan include:

a series of unmanned lunar exploration, including lunar orbit exploration, lunar soft landing and lunar rover exploration.

To realize manned landing on the moon and establish a lunar base.

Take the moon base as the springboard for manned Mars exploration.

The plan is to take lunar exploration as a technical exercise, establish a lunar base, and then, based on the development of lunar resources, take the moon as a springboard to implement manned landing on Mars.

The plan was put forward as early as 2004, but it has been delayed by various excuses.

After the completion of their mission, there has been no new lunar probe or lunar lander launched.

During this period, China successfully surpassed them and launched Chang'e lander, becoming the third country to land on the moon.

In recent years, the development of China has become more terrifying.

First, it landed on the back of the moon, and then recently, the March ant group successfully entered space, and the space boom appeared, so all countries around the world had to pay attention to this matter.

The countries in dispute in Europe also have to fuse different opinions and unite at this moment. They have finally made new progress in their long shelved dawn plan.

Without progress, it will not work. Now the Chinese nuclear fusion power stations are almost successfully put into operation, and the resources on the moon are particularly important.

It used to be the oil age, and then it will be the new energy age of nuclear fusion. Helium-3 is the next "oil". No one wants to fall behind.

"How long will it take for the rocket to be built?" Asked Verne.

"Just now Claude replied that it will take about ten days. It'll take half a month to deliver it here. " Said the assistant.

"Half a month? Just fine. " Verne said.

As long as the successful landing of the probe on the moon, this launch will be of great help to their future plans, and participating countries will also give them more research and development costs.

……

Baikonur Space Center, built in 1955, is a former Soviet space launch site and missile test base, located in a desert area of Kazakhstan.

It used to be the largest space launch site of the Soviet Union, and also the place where human space dream began.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, in 1994, Russia signed a lease agreement with Kazakhstan to reopen the space center, which has remained an important space center in the world for decades.

Mendelov looked up at the super heavy rocket standing on the launch tower, pointing straight to the sky, with a wrinkled face, which seemed full of stories.The rocket in front of us is Russia's latest super heavy rocket, polar bear series.

This rocket has another story.

Its predecessor was the N-1 rocket prepared by the Soviet Union for manned lunar landing. In the same year, after four consecutive launches of the N-1 rocket failed, the Soviet Union had to suspend the manned lunar landing program.

The Soviet Union disintegrated before the moon landing plan was put into operation again.

Russia inherited most of the legacy of the former Soviet Union, including the technical data of rockets, as well as most of the scientists and technical teams.

Over the years, Russia has been secretly developing and improving the N-1 rocket. After decades of technological improvements, it has finally succeeded. And the hot spot of space exploration, once again, the polar bear series rockets, will be the core of their new space journey "Yuri plan".

For the polar bear rockets, the rocket team has suffered a lot over the years, only they know.

The designer of this rocket is his teacher. His teacher has devoted his whole life to the rocket. After the teacher left, he took over the teacher's work and continued to improve the rocket design.

After years of continuous improvement in design and testing, rocket technology has become mature.

Last time Chen Mo went to heaven, after the Kremlin issued an order, the space agency announced the launch of the "Yuri plan" to re-enter the moon.

The March ant group announced the news of retrieving Yueyan, and their team heard about it.

China has mastered the technology of nuclear fusion and now the technology of landing on the moon. If they do not plan ahead of time, they will not have a place in the future even if their land is large.

Their country relies on selling energy resources to maintain its economy. Once nuclear fusion technology appears, they are not far from collapse, so they have to make up their minds to move towards high technology.

It is absolutely helpful for them to master the lunar exploration technology, because with the advent of nuclear fusion technology, the moon is another "oil field", the size of a planet.

"Teacher, the assembly of the rocket is finished, and it can be refueled at any time."

A middle-aged man in a research gown came and reported on the progress.

"Then it's up to God." Mendelov looked up at the polar bear rocket on the launch tower and sighed.

The story of the predecessor of the polar bear rocket is not good. This is the last test launch. If it fails, it means that their efforts over the years will drift. As long as the test launch is successful, it means that it can carry out the mission of manned landing on the moon.

March ant group announced the successful return of moon rock, which affected the hair of the global lunar exploration plan.

Not only the United States, Russia and Europe, including India, island countries and Israel, but also all ambitious and capable countries are preparing for the moon landing plan. No one is willing to fall behind.

The two fusion power stations started by marching ant group are nearing the end, and the fusion technology will be put into practice soon. This means that the nuclear fusion era is about to open the door, the resources on the moon, become the object of global competition.

It has been brewing for a long time. Now the wings of butterflies have been agitated.
