Chapter 312 Our goal is super grand

Richard listened to the children's conversation with a smile. Although he was still proud of Thomas's organized explanation, he always felt that something was wrong.

For example, a community with a shared future for mankind is no different from human beings. These arguments that seem unfamiliar to him are actually completely different from his life experience.

For example, people are actually different.

It’s like people in low-income neighborhoods should not go to high-income neighborhoods, otherwise they will often be treated unfairly. The so-called progressivism is nothing more than creating some people.

But Richard only has a junior high school diploma after all. Although he went to high school, he dropped out of school before graduation. It was not that he didn't want to study, but that he had severe dyslexia...

Well, in fact, he just doesn't want to learn. But Richard doesn't think he can blame him for this.

When he was studying, public schools didn’t teach anything at all, and they just finished school at 2:00 p.m. The most famous sports stars in the school are not those who have good grades, and who even like to study are called weird people!

Anyone who has seen Sheldon knows that this guy has been a top student since he was a child, but his life is obviously not that beautiful.

On the contrary, the most dazzling star is who plays good football in school. As for the poor grades, Who care?

So although Richard felt that what Thomas talked about was different from his life experience, he did not dare to deny it easily.

After all, it is something taught by the school teachers, and everyone says that the things taught by the school teachers are very good.

Richard would not believe these words before, but the facts proved that China had indeed come to the forefront of Xi'an University. What they could not do for decades, the Chinese people completed it in a few years, and he really gained benefits from it.

Not only that, China has even made satellites into defensive weapons. These defensive weapons can decompose all the planets hitting the earth. Therefore, it should be correct to learn what the Chinese teacher teaches. This is indeed a benefit to all mankind...

So in the end, Richard did not speak to interfere with the children's conversation, and he decided to believe in those who made his life better with the naked eye.

Perhaps junior high school teachers recommend that you come back to watch the greatest space program in human history at night, so similar situations actually happen in many families.

Fortunately, it is not a big deal for parents to go to bed later than usual on weekend nights.

Moreover, the launch time of China's rockets this time is not too bad. It is now past summer time, and China's 10 am is exactly nine pm Philadelphia time.

Although most parents have not that high scientific literacy, during this period, TV and the Internet have been hotly discussed that China will build the first lunar scientific research base in human history on the moon, so there are also many popular sciences.

For example, with the progress of human technology, the spacecraft from the 300,000 kilometers to the moon will take at least three days to run. Considering that this time it is a manned landing, there are various materials needed to build a base on the spacecraft, so the speed may be slower.

After all, safety must be taken into account. And you may have to turn a few times in the moon orbit to find the right opportunity to land.

So this live broadcast naturally cannot last for three days. What excited these children the most was probably the hour before the spaceship came to the sky, and the exclusive interview with Professor Qiao Yu, the host of the moon landing during the live broadcast.

Perhaps many parents in the community are like Richard, thinking that something is wrong. But the natives who can stay in Fish Town, or the newly moved residents, are the people who have gained benefits from China's visit to Philadelphia for infrastructure construction.

Not to mention anything else, the increase in housing prices alone made everyone a big profit. Naturally, they all had a tolerant attitude and even took the initiative to make up for what the teachers said, so everything became reasonable.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the whole of Philadelphia was also filled with crowds. Whether it was the request of the children or the adults themselves were affected by publicity, every household's TV or computer was locked on the China Moon Live Broadcast.

...

"Ten, nine, eight...one!"

As the countdown ended, rockets carrying spacecraft soared into the sky. In the video, the first batch of eight aviation personnel ordered to go to the moon to set up a lunar scientific research base, and their entire bodies were firmly fixed in their seats.

The total mass of personnel and materials carried by this launch was fifty tons, and the total weight of the launch was 178 tons.

But the ship only brought people and some necessary survival materials. In fact, the materials and machinery used to build the lunar scientific research base were successfully launched when the news was announced on the National Day. The spacecraft full of various materials is currently flying around the moon orbit.

Yes, this manned moon landing mission is actually carried out in two stages, with their respective technical considerations.

For ordinary people who do not understand technical details, they only feel that due to the rocket carrying capacity, they are routine to launch in two batches, but only for experts, they can know how bold this solution is.

Similar to the Artemis project launched by NASA in the early years, it is to build a space station in the lunar orbit as a landing intermediate station to realize the storage and transfer of materials in the lunar orbit.

This plan has been proposed for many years but has not been implemented. There are many reasons, such as the national strength of Xi'an University can no longer support space exploration.

But the most essential reason is that this solution is technically difficult. The lunar orbit is not as stable as the earth's orbit, and the orbital mechanics are more complex. After all, it is affected by gravitational disturbances from the earth and the sun at the same time.

In addition, low-month orbits may also encounter orbital decay problems, which requires additional fuel to maintain power with the thruster to prevent the spacecraft from crashing.

High orbits are stable, but require more fuel, which means higher load requirements on the rocket.

Therefore, how to determine a suitable position requires huge calculations. If the moon orbit needs more support for high-precision navigation, the reliability of the thruster will be higher. Humans have almost no experience at this level.

In short, in the eyes of many industry insiders, China's manned moon landing mission is dancing on the tip of a knife.

However, in the view of chief designer Qiao Yu, this is the safest thing. After all, talent is the most important thing.

It is not easy to train qualified astronauts, not to mention that according to the plan, these people have to stay on the moon for at least two to three weeks to complete the construction of the scientific research base.

This is the first time in human history that astronauts have been on an alien planet for so long, which is a test for the astronauts' bodies and will.

Therefore, it is safest to deliver things in stages.

If there is a problem with the first batch of materials launches, then the manned moon landing will have to be postponed.

Of course, thanks to the emergence of quantum simulation computers, many complicated calculations have become simple, which makes this solution feasible.

If you change the past, even if Qiao Yu insists on it, such a risky plan would probably be killed.

During the highly anticipated live broadcast, the rocket carrying the spacecraft successfully launched and successfully entered the Earth-Moon transfer orbit through an hour of explanation from the host.

Next is the spacecraft that needs to do a low-Earth orbit inspection. When everything is ready, it needs to ignite the fire and then head to the moon.

There is nothing good to broadcast live next.

After all, it takes about three days from Earth to the moon, and then it is a truly exciting time. The manned spacecraft must connect with the material compartment in the near-moon orbit, and then land at the predetermined location together.

However, everyone did not leave the screen because the host of the central media has contacted Academician Qiao Yu, the commander-in-chief of the moon landing plan.

For many people, this is the highlight of today. After all, in China's unremitting publicity, Qiao Yu has become a leader in the modern scientific community. His status has been higher than that of Newton and Einstein, and naturally has gained many fans.

Especially in the West.

Many statements are indeed tenable.

For example, everyone knows that in modern history, the power of the West is obvious to all. From the former Empire of the Sun never set to the world's lighthouse, the whole world is the leader of the Western powers.

Why did it suddenly fail in modern times? The answer given by Chinese teachers and many people on the Internet is that the West has begun to ignore science and education.

This view can only be said to be personal. After all, the West does not actually focus on science, for example, large technology companies pay great attention to scientific research and development.

But this argument is very popular from the perspective of ordinary people at Xida University. After all, they have all grown up through happy education. They are very clear about what kind of education they receive.

It was indeed very happy, but I learned nothing. So Xida fell behind, even the entire game. A good handful of cards was beaten to pieces.

The most important thing is that I was really happy when I was a child, but I developed such a simple habit in life.

In fact, human nature is accustomed to blame all mistakes on others, and self-reflection is a valuable quality that can only be possessed by acquired education.

So the current situation is that Westerners have a much better impression of Qiao Yu than Chinese, and they admire this young scientist more. It is counterintuitive, but it is realistic.

The only shame is that the following live broadcast did not deliberately take care of these Western fans, and they had Chinese conversations throughout the whole process.

"...Academician Qiao, can you tell me where China's manned moon landing plan lies in the strategy of aerospace power? How do you think it reflects the top-level design of China's technological development in the new era..."

The questions from the central media are always justified. To be honest, it is not interesting. Fortunately, the interviewees are not so pretty.

Especially as the first post-00s generation in China to serve as the commander-in-chief of major engineering projects, and only one year away from becoming a post-00s generation, it is difficult for him to behave properly in the interview.

So when answering questions, the young man extended it very well and even liked to quote widely, turning passive into active.

"...This is probably the end of this issue. After all, manned moon landing has not been completely successful. We should wait a few days later to reach the lunar orbit and successfully complete the orbit and landing. Let's talk about this issue.

Actually, I want to talk to you about other things, such as why we have to land on the moon by manned and why we have to build a lunar scientific research base. In fact, this question is the most important and needs everyone to understand the most.”

"Oh, then why do you think these two should answer?"

"This topic is a long way to go. First of all, why do you think there is war in the world?"

Really, for the host of the central media, Qiao Yu is definitely a love-hate existence.

There is nothing to say about love. China's top mathematicians and scientists are people with their own topics. The hosts and reporters who can talk to Qiao Yu in interviews are themselves affirming their status in the industry.

But as we all know, the central media is very serious about the internal assessment of hosts and reporters. Everyone is afraid of saying the wrong thing.

But Qiao Yu doesn't like to play according to the routine every time he is interviewed. Even if he communicates in advance, it's useless. The older he gets, the more he is.

This directly leads to worrying every interview. The same is true today. Qiao Yu's sudden rhetoric question made the host's brain jammed, obviously this was not in the content I communicated before.

Fortunately, her solid hosting qualities made her react immediately: "I really haven't thought so deeply, you can talk about it a little."

Now I can only pray to this commander-in-chief to say something that cannot be broadcasted...

"In fact, it is very simple, it is economy and distribution. But after all, the stagnation of economic development leads to distribution problems, and it is also because of the stagnation of technological development.

To put it bluntly, productivity no longer develops in a leap, resulting in smaller and smaller pieces of divisible cakes. When there is no increase in the economy, everyone can only grab the stock, which leads to increasingly extreme distribution.

When most people feel dissatisfied, bang... war will inevitably happen! So China has always developed technology to promote the development of productivity.

Only when technological innovation and productivity leaps, can the engine of economic development maintain strong momentum and there will be incremental growth! Then everyone can enjoy the dividends of development.

But this will create another problem, that is, productivity cannot always jump in development. Moreover, the earth is too small to resources that can not even allow everyone to live a wealthy life.

At this time, we must look beyond the earth. So you just asked me where the manned moon landing plan is in the strategy of a space power!

My answer is that this is what is necessary in top-level design to truly achieve the great unity of the people of the world! It is also the original intention of China. Chinese culture has always been a safe place if it is poor, and a prosperous place will help the world.

We not only want the Chinese people to live a good life, but also let the people of the world live a good life! The construction of the moon base is only the first step. Our ultimate goal is that the earth's civilization can truly enter the universe and have the ability to utilize cosmic resources.

Make the cake bigger! Let people all over the world enjoy the dividends brought by rapid economic development, and make everyone's lives better visible to the naked eye!

In fact, even if we have not yet conquered the moon, China has already done this! I believe that those hardworking people who are working with China in the region can testify to China..."
