Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Earth, North America.

NASA headquarters.

Sitting at the desk, Director Carson is going through the documents in his hand.

That was when the office door opened and a man in a suit walked in quickly.

Looking up at the assistant who walked in the door, Director Carson reached out and took off the glasses on the nose beam, saying in a weary tone.

“How's it going? What about the three astronauts? ”

The assistant replied.

“It is now on the Moon Palace Space Station. ”

Turning the fountain pen in his hand, Carson nodded gently on the desk, squeezing the fountain pen.

“What about the timetable for the handover of personnel? When does the Chinese side intend to send people back? ”

They paid at least $1 billion for this expensive Mars rescue operation.

Although the Chinese side propaganda has borne $713 million in relief funds for humanitarian reasons, the ghosts know how much they have actually paid.

After all, it is currently possible to bring people back from Mars at the end of the window period, which is just a company of Sky Technology. This budget is all their mouth.

Carson estimates that when the Chinese side reaches the top of the sky, it will look like $340 billion, and the entire rescue operation will cost less than $1.7 billion.

Coming to Commissioner Carson's sight, the assistant hesitated and said with embarrassment.

“… uncertain. ”

“Not sure?” Commissioner Carson frowned slightly, “What do you mean... they're still going to snap people? ”

“That's not true, just our astronauts… there seems to be a slight problem. ”

“… what is the problem? ”

The assistant's face was filled with bitter expressions in the face of Director Carson's questioning.

“Suspected Mars bacteria were detected in the metabolites of the three colonists...”

……

Immediately after the successful docking of the Xia Guang with the Moon Palace, news of the return of three New Virginia colonists to the Moon system spread around the world along the Internet.

Yet the world's people had not yet had time to cheer for that great moment, and news of the Mars species had been discovered among the three colonizers, and it had been spread with the triumph of the Chinese National Rescue Team.

When the news came to light, the international community was silent.

Some people are curious about these little lives from Mars, or some say they don't care about anything that astronauts bring back from Mars.

However, the emotions that pervade another part of the population, or the vast majority of the population, are panic…

Columbia Television.

Earlier, when he blew hot on the Ares plan and invited three colonizers to be guests, Jamie changed his previous position, becoming not only a staunch opponent of the Ares plan, but also invited an ecologist who strongly criticized NASA to come to the talk show.

Faced with the audience on the scene, as well as the camera lens, the old professor from Liu Liu's late season said in an angry voice.

“… I told you that Ares was another stupid and inhumane human experiment from the beginning! NASA knows it's not just the climate that's dangerous on Mars, it's the microbes we've never even seen, even the virus! Even so, however, they persevered in sending the colonists to Mars and deceiving them that one day they would be able to return home...”

“Oh, God, they did come back now, brought back by the generous Chinese. But where exactly are we supposed to put the ones carrying the Mars species? Who can guarantee that the bacteria they carry are harmless to others? Is it harmless to our fragile ecosystem? ”

“NASA must be held accountable for this! ”

It is not just TV Colombia that has changed its position.

When the word "human experiment" was put on the table, almost all the media in North America, but also worried about politically correct, drew a line with NASA and Ares.

As Director Carson had anticipated, the NASA and Ares plans were immediately heavily criticized by public opinion following the spread of information that the three colonists had been infected with Mars bacteria.

Though he felt a little wronged.

After all, there was no plan to bring these Mars colonists back to Earth in the Ares plan. Had it not been for that global sandstorm, they would not have needed to have burned their heads to calm the anger of the people.

But now it seems too late to say anything.

Since the moment Mars bacteria were detected on those three colonists, his political career may have come to an end...

At the same time, it was not just Director Carson who was hit.

Far from Wall Street in New York, there is also a cloud over the sky. Companies that were once popular in financial markets for space listings are now facing a gloomy winter of capital.

Even Space-X, which is already at the forefront of the industry, and the blue origins of Amazon Holdings, is not a very good time.

But at a time when public opinion was talking about NASA and Ares, there was a very different reaction from academia.

The paper published in parallel by Leslie and Dr. Zhao Shuxuan caused a great deal of sensation around the world.

The existence of life on Mars has always been a controversial topic.

Although mankind has launched countless probes into Mars, even dropped a life support unit, and three astronauts, so far no soil has been brought back directly from Mars.

Only three meteorites from Mars, numbered ALH840001 and Yamato593 and Nakhla, were available to astrobiologists.

Although there are indications of micro-organisms in each of these three meteorites, there is still no direct evidence that these micro-organisms have actually existed, or what they are.

The bacteria that Xia Guang brought back from Mars today, although full of unpredictable risks, also hold valuable research value.

The biology community sees this as a major epic discovery, and through this study of bacteria, it is expected to reveal the thin “ecosystems” on Mars and enrich the DNA databases currently known to humans.

The astronomy community has similarly indicated that the bacteria brought back from Mars by the three colonizers will provide critical research materials on the historical landscape changes on Mars and the evolution of the atmospheric environment in various fields.

Of course, scholars studying from relevant fields have expressed similar concerns.

Mars species that can survive in extreme environments are likely to exhibit equally resilient vitality on Earth and have an unpredictable impact on the Earth's ecosystem.

At that time, European colonists took a series of infectious diseases to North America, almost exterminating the indigenous peoples living there. And the Native Americans killed by infectious diseases are much larger than those who died under gunfire.

Now the three men have gone around Mars and come back with a small life on Mars, and while the physical condition of the three seems unaffected at present, there is no guarantee that this will continue to happen.

At a time when the atmosphere of panic was spreading, the China Lunar Orbit Construction Commission issued a public statement.

In the interest of human civilization as a whole, no consideration will be given to bringing the three colonizers back to Earth until the probable effects of the bacteria on the Earth's ecosystem have been determined, or until the species of Mars carried by the three colonizers have been found to have been completely killed.

At the same time, the China Lunar Orbit Construction Commission announced that a lunar research facility would be built on the surface of the Moon for the temporary relocation of the three colonizers and for the study of their condition.

The facility, as well as the research carried out, welcomed the supervision of all sectors of society and was open to the entire international community, with the participation of other countries.

However, this is certainly not pro bono due to multiple factors such as cost…
