Island country, Kagoshima Space Launch Center.

It is affiliated to the island nation’s space science research institution and is the launch site of the island nation’s deep space rockets.

Edo Castle calmly looked at the launch tower at Miu's launch site, with lofty ambition in his expression.

A small country has two space launch sites. Only these small details show that their country's ambitions have never been small.

They are located in an island country where disasters are frequent and resources are scarce. The disasters every year warn them to be crisis-conscious, so they are always looking for new territories.

So they have an ambition that is completely incompatible with their physical size.

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

Huaxia has successfully landed on the moon and retrieved Moon Rock, taking the lead in the upcoming changes.

The oil resources on the earth do not have their share, but it is different on the moon.As long as they have technological development, the helium-3 there is inexhaustible, that is endless wealth, and it is also the place where they complete their imperial ambitions.

China has the Chang'e Project, the United States has the Hercules Project, Europe has the Dawn Project, Russia has the Yuri Project, and their island countries also have the'Monthly Reading Project'.

In the era of great voyages, let the British island nation become the world's unsettling empire. If they succeed, even if the next unsettling empire does not belong to them, they will definitely become one of the world's powers.

These years, they have been pressed by the United States too hard. Once change comes, it means chaos. It is also an opportunity for them, a chance to sit on an equal footing with the powers of the world.

"Chief Edo, the base called and said that the rocket manufacturing is nearing completion and it will be completed in about a month." A female assistant came over and interrupted Edo Castle's thoughts.

"Oh, I see."

After the female assistant left, Edo Castle continued to look at the tower in a daze.

A month is neither long nor short.

No one can tell, perhaps, this is where their empire set sail.

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

Ariane’s second launch site was busy at this time.

As the director of the European Space Agency, Yang Werner was also on the scene, watching the progress of preparing for the field work.

Soon, the rocket will be shipped and assembled. This time their goal is very clear, which is to start the long-stranded'Dawn Project'.

The Dawn Project is a European moon landing project. It has many similarities with the new space program "Hercules Project" of the United States. The main contents of the plan include:

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

Realize manned landing on the moon and establish a lunar base.

Use the lunar base as a springboard for manned Mars exploration.

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

The plan was put forward in 2004, but it has been delayed and delayed under various excuses.

After their launched lunar satellite Wisdom 1 completed its mission, there has been no new lunar probe or lunar lander launched.

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

In recent years, China's development has become more terrifying.

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

Countries in Europe that are still in dispute have to unite their different opinions at this moment.They had put aside the Dawn Project for a long time, and finally made new progress.

Without progress, it will not work. Now that the Huaxia nuclear fusion power station is about to be successfully commissioned, the resources on the moon are particularly important.

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

"How long will it take for the Rockets to be manufactured?" Werner asked.

"It will take about ten days for Claude to reply just now. It will take half a month to send it here," the assistant beside him said.

"Half a month? Just right." Werner said.

As long as the probe successfully landed on the moon in this launch, it will be of great help to their future plans, and participating countries will also give them more R&D expenses.

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

This was once the largest space launch site in the Soviet Union, and it was also the place where the human space dream began.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, in 1994, Russia and Kazakhstan signed a lease agreement to reopen the space center. Decades later, this place is still an important place for the world's spaceflight.

Mendeleov looked up at the super-heavy rocket standing on the launch tower and pointed straight at the sky with a wrinkled face that seemed to be 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 that the former Soviet Union was going to use for manned moon landings. After the N-1 rocket failed four consecutive launches that year, the former Soviet Union had to suspend the manned moon landing plan.

The Soviet Union disintegrated before the moon landing program was launched again.

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

Over the years, Russia has been secretly developing and improving the N-1 rocket, and decades of technological improvements have finally succeeded.The hotspot of space exploration is once again on the ups and downs. The Polar Bear series rockets will be the core of their new space journey, the "Yuri Project".

For the Polar Bear series rockets, only they know how much hardship the rocket team has suffered over the years.

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

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

When Chen Mo went to the sky last time, after the Kremlin issued an order, the space agency announced the launch of the'Yuri Project' and landed on the moon again.

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

China has already mastered nuclear fusion technology, and now it has mastered the moon landing technology. If they do not make arrangements in advance, no matter how large their country is, they will not have a place in the future.

Their country relies on selling energy resources to maintain its economy. Once nuclear fusion technology appears, they will not be far from the collapse, so they have to make up their minds to move closer to the high-tech direction.

Mastering the technology of lunar exploration is definitely helpful to them, because the age of nuclear fusion technology has arrived and the moon is another'oil field', an'oil field' the size of a planet.

"Teacher, the assembly of the rocket is complete and you can refuel at any time."

A middle-aged man in a research gown came over to report on the progress.

"Then it's up to God." Mendeleov sighed, looking up at the polar bear rocket on the launch tower.

The story of the predecessor of the Polar Bear Rocket is not good. This is the last test fired. If it fails, it means that their efforts over the years will be overwhelming.As long as the test launch is successful, it means that it can perform the mission of manned landing on the moon.

The Marching Ant Group announced the successful return of Moon Rock, which affected the hair of the global lunar exploration program.

Not only the United States, Russia, Europe, but also India, island countries, and Israel, all countries that are ambitious and capable are preparing for the moon landing plan, and no one is far behind.

The construction of the two nuclear fusion power stations started by the Marching Ant Group is nearing completion, and nuclear fusion technology will soon be put into practical use.This means that the era of nuclear fusion is about to open the door, and the resources on the moon have become the object of global competition.

It had been brewing for a long time, but now the butterfly's wings have been stirred.
