The letter also stated that the preliminary budget for the lunar biosphere project is about 50-100 billion RMB.

For China, this money is not nothing. But to be honest, it is still very distressing to invest in a biosphere project.

After pondering for a moment, the old man called over a guard. After saying a few words, he closed his eyes again and began to ponder.

...

After waiting for some time, under the guidance of the guard, Yuan Zhouli, a senior leader in science and technology, walked into the small two-story building in front of him.

He knocked on the door of the study room, and after a voice of "come in" came from inside, he carefully opened the door and walked in.

"You're looking for me?"

In the study, the old man smiled and nodded, gently pushed the letters on the table over and said:

"I have a letter here, please read it first."

Yuan Zhouli nodded, walked forward without hesitation, and picked up the letter from the table.

Seeing the paper used for the letter, he almost guessed who wrote the letter in his hand.

Although there are some people who can send letters here, only the person from Jinling can do it with this ordinary manuscript paper in his hand.

After all, when other people write letters, especially letters sent here, they usually have dedicated stationery.

That's the only one who doesn't care about these things.

He could even picture the person sitting at his desk writing a letter and casually pulling out a stack of papers for daily calculations from the drawer.

...

After guessing who sent the letter, Yuan Zhouli quickly unfolded the letter and read it carefully.

[...Exploration of space will become a driving force and catalyst for the development of new technologies and basic scientific research." This view has been repeatedly confirmed in history.]

[Generally speaking, there are two types of models for the development of new technologies. One is "natural growth". For example, as new materials and new processes mature, the indicators of a certain technical direction will also improve; ]

[There is another type that first has a target indicator, and then sorts out the key issues that need to be overcome in order to achieve the indicator from top to bottom, and overcome them one by one. Such as the controllable nuclear fusion project. 】

[Generally speaking, the second type of technological progress also often has a chain effect. A technological breakthrough will be accompanied by the progress of a series of related technologies. But at the same time, the second type is much more difficult because it often means interdisciplinary and cross-field

cooperation, and a large amount of capital investment.]

[Just like controllable nuclear fusion technology, its success has also led to the development of many other disciplines, which can be seen. 】

[Today, the process of "exploring space" plays the role of a catalyst: there are clear technical goals, massive financial support, and a large number of talents. 】

[It can enable us to discover new materials, new methods, invent better technical systems, better manufacturing procedures, extend the working life of instruments, and even discover new natural laws. All this newly acquired technical knowledge can also be applied

For ground technology...]
