Although what Henry said is reasonable, every country has selfish motives, who would be willing to hand over their country's elite troops to the control of the Williams Empire? Moreover, this 100,000 combined army spends a huge amount of money every year, so should each country share it equally?

Henry looked at everyone's expressions and knew that his previous idea of establishing the "Weiyuan" joint force was too simplistic. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Henry couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, originally for everyone's sake, after the establishment of the Weiyuan United Force, the countries of the entire Weiyuan system can be greatly improved in terms of foreign discourse, but the countries are full of speculation and defense about the Williams Empire, and they are obviously unwilling to agree to the establishment of the Weiyuan Joint Force.

What will these countries think if others kindly send troops to help the Williams Empire, but in the end, they annex their own troops? At this time, if they want to forcibly push forward this plan, it will undoubtedly destroy the relationship between the Williams Empire and the other 14 countries!

Henry thought for a moment and took the initiative to say, "Okay, I don't think you are too willing. In that case, then forget it! Then I will let the respective troops return to the countries! In this war, thanks to the help of all countries, I will give 50 billion Wei Yuan to show my gratitude, and distribute it to the countries according to the size of the contribution! For those who are killed and wounded, the Williams Empire will compensate them separately!"

When the presidents of various countries heard this, they were very surprised, and thought to themselves, it is really cool to send troops to "play soy sauce" and get so much money!

And Henry did it with a purpose.

These countries got the money this time and tasted the sweetness, then, next time, if Henry asked them to send troops, the countries would definitely send more troops. Invisibly, the Williams Empire is equivalent to owning the armed forces of the remaining 14 countries. In the Williams Empire, which has not yet become truly strong, the power of uniting 14 countries can make European and American countries have a trace of jealousy towards the Williams Empire!

After sending off the presidents of 14 countries, Henry began to be obsessed with the development of artificial intelligence.

At the same time, Henry is keeping a close eye on SpaceX's lunar landing program. The manned spacecraft used in the lunar landing has already been built, named the "Zeus" spacecraft, which is mainly divided into two parts: the main body of the spacecraft and the lunar module, when the spacecraft stops in the lunar orbit, the lunar module separates from the spacecraft and begins to land on the moon. After completing its mission on the Moon, the Lunar Module returns to lunar orbit, combines with the spacecraft, and finally returns to the space station!

When the U.S. Apollo 11 landed on the moon in 1969, it adopted a three-cabin landing mode, with the command module at the top, the service module in the middle, and the lunar module at the bottom. The way to land on the moon is basically the same, after the spacecraft reaches the lunar orbit, the lunar module departs from the spacecraft and goes to the moon. However, when returning, due to the technical conditions at the time, considering the weight and fuel and other issues, after the lunar module returned to the spacecraft, the lunar module had to be thrown away to reduce the weight. The service module is then powered back to Earth, and at the end of the day, the service module is also thrown away, leaving only the command module to return to the Earth's surface.

Today, after 37 years, the Zeus spacecraft uses nuclear fission and graphene solar energy as a power source, which is enough to ensure the energy supply of the spacecraft, and there is no longer any need to throw away the lunar module, which is wasted!

On July 15, SpaceX held a press conference to announce that the manned lunar landing project would be launched on the 20th of this month.

As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked.

Because so far, only the United States has succeeded in landing a manned person on the moon in the world! If SpaceX can succeed, it will be of great significance!

Countless people are looking forward to the early arrival of the 20th.

Five days went by in a blink of an eye.

The launch site of the Zeus spacecraft is located at the SpaceX launch center in southern Somalia, which is located on the equator, and the linear velocity of the Earth's rotation at the equatorial position is the maximum, which saves fuel for the rocket. SpaceX plans to send 10 astronauts over, and these 10 astronauts have taken the first generation of genetic evolution drugs developed by the gene umbrella, and their physical strength has reached 1.5 times that of ordinary people, and they have enhanced their resistance to cosmic rays, so they can better adapt to life in space!

At 09:00:00 a.m. Southern Somalia time, SpaceX successfully launched a heavy rocket codenamed Falcon 8 from the launch center in southern Somalia, lifting the Zeus spacecraft into the sky. The rocket is a two-stage rocket, the first stage uses liquid fuel, and the second stage uses nuclear fission, which is guaranteed to send Zeus into lunar orbit as quickly as possible.

In fact, SpaceX has developed plasma rocket thrusters, but at first, plasma thrusters were slow and could only produce 5 Newtons of thrust. If it is used for a short voyage like the moon, it is not as fast as other thrusters!

However, don't underestimate plasma pushers.

Launched back in 1998, Deep Space 1 was propelled by an ion engine with an impulse equivalent to 10 times that of a liquid rocket (impulse is the final momentum minus the initial momentum in kg·m/s). 100 grams of xenon propellant is consumed per day, and the speed increases by 25~32 meters per hour every day when the engine is running at full speed. It ended up working more than 14,000 hours, more than all conventional rocket engines combined.

With the advent of plasma thrusters, the time to travel from Earth to Mars has been shortened from 250 days to 39 days, and possibly even less!!

There is no doubt that SpaceX has a very deep research in this field. Zhang Fulin, a retired NASA astronaut from the United States, is now the main person in charge of SpaceX's plasma engine. He was NASA's first Chinese-American professional astronaut, with a quarter of Chinese ancestry, completed his Ph.D. in applied plasma physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1977, and after graduation, he was engaged in the research of plasma thrusters, and is one of the world's most authoritative experts in this field! In 2005, he retired from NASA to form the AD-Astra rocket company, and SpaceX did not hesitate to acquire the company, and finally included Zhang Fulin and other talents into SpaceX!

The Moon's gravity is 1/6 that of Earth, while Mars' gravity is slightly more than 1/3 of Earth's.

First simple and then difficult, to complete the moon landing, the next target is Mars.

The rocket successfully sent the Zeus spacecraft to outer space and flew quickly to the moon.

The average distance between the moon and the earth is 38,400 kilometers, and it took more than three days for the United States to land on the moon, and SpaceX plans to complete it in only one and a half days!

Thirty-one hours later, Zeus reached the moon's orbit. The next moment, Zeus is about to send a lunar module to the moon.

The exciting time has finally arrived!
