Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

It's not just an argument.

While expressing its position, the Ark went on to elaborate its views from two perspectives: economic and scientific.

Considering that the lunar transfer orbit capacity of Xiangrui has now reached 25 tons, the construction of a space station in the lunar orbit is far more important than the modelling of the International Space Station and the construction of a similar station in near-Earth orbit.

“… abundant resources of rare earth, titanium ore and helium are stored on the Moon, and the construction of a space station on the Moon is undoubtedly a better option, given that we are already in a position to develop the resources of the Moon. ”

After listening to the Ark, the expert who had spoken earlier could not help but stand up and speak with a little excitement.

“But everything has a sequence, and I didn't say it was bad to build a space station on the moon, but why can't we just slow down and build a similar one in near-Earth orbit first? Now that we're working directly in the moon orbit, can you guarantee that the project will succeed? ”

In the face of aggressive questioning, the ark answered calmly.

“I can't promise, but I can answer that question because we can't wait. ”

The expert frowned and said, “How can you say that? ”

The ark smiled lightly and continued.

“I am sure you cannot be unaware that the Moon Orbit Space Station plan has been included in the draft budget published by NASA in 2018. Although their current energies have been implicated in the Ares plan, we have reason to suspect that the relevant plan has been reviewed by the Congressional Budget Committee, even before the Moon Orbit Space Station plan is further advanced to the Ares plan. Not surprisingly, the project will begin in 2022, and if the American space station begins, we will face greater engineering difficulties in the lunar orbit. ”

The voice of whispering was heard in the room. The expert stood up and questioned his expert. The expression on his face was constantly changing. Although there was still something to say, he hesitated for a while and did not figure out how to rebut it, so he sat back on his seat.

Yes, as the ship said, the moon orbit is much narrower than Earth's orbit.

Perhaps with advances in space technology and computer technology, spacecraft capacity in the same orbit could be increased, but with technology now, and perhaps even in the next 50 years, a moon orbiting space station could be the limit that the moon can afford.

If the launch of the United States Moon Space Station is on schedule in 2022, the Chinese nation would like to build a space station in the moon orbit again, which is certainly not as difficult as it is today.

Director Li looked at the expression and thought seriously about the issue. After a moment of pause, the ark continued to speak.

“Yes, as the professor said, everything has a sequence. The high ground leading to the future is there, and if we do not occupy it now, we will pay more for it in the future. ”

“That is my opinion, and I hope you will give it serious consideration. ”

“Today's choice may relate not only to the victory or failure of this space race, but even to our future in a century. ”

Originally, this meeting made a lot of people feel stressed, and by the Ark, the experts and scholars present, the expression on their faces grew more and more heavy.

It's the future in a century…

Nima, if you're wrong about this choice, you can't hang it on the shame column of history.

Or…

Why don't you let the tall guy take it?

The voices of the original "Near-Earth Orbiter” and “Moon" allocators were evenly divided into autumn colors in the Chamber, at best hidden from the former being larger than the latter. However, with the statement of the Ark, the balance was instantly broken.

Everyone turned their eyes to the first row of the chamber, and the Yuan Yard sitting next to the ark, especially the supporters of the near-Earth orbit space station, prayed almost all the time that the old man stood up and said something.

Unexpectedly, however, Mr. Yuan sat there motionlessly and did not speak or make a statement, which seemed to clarify his neutral position.

Director Li repeatedly looked at him and asked him if he had more opinions, but even so, Mr. Yuan had no intention of speaking at all.

All those in the Chamber who supported the establishment of the space station in near-Earth orbit had a desperate expression on their faces.

The old gentleman did not say anything, so he left the initiative entirely to Professor Lu. In the light of Professor Lu's statement, even if more people stood up against it, it would be of little use.

Besides, the big man has a lot of supporters, not necessarily a lot of people against him.

The meeting continued for a while, and several others subsequently stood up to make statements. Seeing that the discussion seemed to have settled dust, Director Lee announced the adjournment of the meeting.

After the meeting.

Zheng, vice president of Aeronautical Science Group, immediately stood up to the east, quickly walked to exit A of the conference room, caught up with the footsteps of Yuan Academician, and said with a sad face.

“Why didn't you persuade Yuan to sit next to him?" ”

Yuan Academician looked at him strangely.

“What do I persuade him to do? ”

Zheng looked east and immediately said: “What are you listening to him say? ”

Yuan Academician laughed and said.

“I think he said it well. ”

“...” Vice President Zheng stared at Master Yuan and looked at him like he was looking at a monster.

After a while, he pinched his eyebrows with a headache and squeezed a sentence out of his mouth, “Wait a minute, I can't turn my head... Don't you and that Professor Lu have always been irresistible? ”

“Who did you hear?” Yuan Academician looked at Vice President Zheng with his face on the board. "When did I say that Professor Lu and I were not up against each other? ”

He admitted that it was a little rough to look at the kid before, but that was before.

Now whoever brought this up, he and whoever flipped their faces.

Vice President Zheng's face is as ugly as constipation. I don't know if I should cry or laugh.

“The kid went crazy, you went crazy. ”

“It's a tens of billions, hundreds of billions of big projects! If we build this station in the moon orbit, how many space companies in our country can eat this order? Do you have any idea what that means? How many people does that mean? ”

Of course, it wasn't the jobs that really bothered him, but the Aeronautics Group's rocket R&D project and production tasks.

If, over the next five years, most of China's space needs are shifted from near-Earth orbit to lunar orbit, more than half of the other R&D projects and production tasks will have to be cut off, even if the Long Nine rocket survives.

Zheng sighed heavily to the east and patted a thigh.

“This kid is also tough enough to eat a single meal and play with it! ”

Staring at Vice President Zheng, who had long and short sighs, Master Yuan frowned and said.

“What are you talking about? ”

Zheng explained to Dong when he saw the appearance of the Yuan Academician who did not understand.

“Don't you get it? If the station were to be built on the Moon, only one enterprise in the country would be able to win the transport mission from the surface to the Moon orbit! Or forget about winning the bid, other companies, including us, don't even have the chance to participate in the bid! Why do you think he had to put the station in moon orbit? Do you really think he's so selfless for the sake of his country? ”

If the station were to be built in near-Earth orbit, Long March 5's capacity would barely fit in, and the launch cost, while not cheap, would not be high anywhere.

But if the station were to be built in the moon orbit, it would not be a question of cheap or inexpensive, but of not being able to do so.

To be part of the bidding process for this mission, at least wait until Long March 9 comes out. However, even if they move faster, two or three years ahead of schedule to design and manufacture Long March 9, it will have to wait until 2025.

By then, I'm afraid the yellow cauliflower will be cold.

After listening to Vice President Zheng's remarks, the look on Mr. Yuan's face did not change much, and he shook his head stubbornly.

“He's not like that. ”

Zheng cried to Dong and said, “How do you know he's not like this? Are you related to him or who? ”

The only way to save it now is to talk to the old man, join the other academics, write a letter in the middle of the book.

However, looking at the Yuan Yard teacher who did not have the oil salt in, he was angry and anxious.

Didn't this guy always complain about Professor Lu interfering in space?

What the hell is wrong with you?

Looking at Vice President Zheng, whose face rose red because of excitement, the Yuan Academician said not slowly.

“I am not his relative, nor do I know him. But just because he dares to use his life as a guarantee to go up with the immature Xiang Rui, I dare to assert that he is definitely not who you say he is. ”

“I understand what you're thinking, and I suggest you give up. ”

A warrior who dares to sacrifice himself for his country, for his science!

If such a great scholar is doing these things for his own selfishness, Yuan Huanmin will not believe it.

He's such a shaft man.

If he approves of his death, he won't change it.

After putting this sentence down, the Yuan Academician didn't say anything either. In the gaze of Deputy General Zheng, he turned away.
