Under Ye Quan's strong promotion, all plans related to space and military fields began to accelerate.

Hualong Guo and the four major groups made a lot of money by using the exhibition, and began to make global purchases of raw materials, and spent as much as they earned.

Xinhua followed suit and began to gradually reduce its foreign exchange reserves, which were used to purchase a large number of scarce materials and strategic reserves such as various metals and minerals from various countries, and accelerated the internationalization of the renminbi.

For a time, the prices of various raw materials have risen.

In a secret factory of the Galaxy Aviation Manufacturing Company, after working day and night, the "Hope" aerospace plane finally completed the final process, and the two subsequent aerospace planes, the "Dawn" and the "Dream", were also nearly completed.

The three aerospace aircraft belong to the Xinhua Space Administration, Galaxy Aerospace Company and Oriental Space Technology Co., Ltd.

Immediately after a short test flight, the Hope spacecraft was delivered to the Xinhua Space Agency, and its first liftoff began on 10 May, placing seven satellites into the intended orbit.

The next day, the 50-ton space module was put into orbit, officially starting the construction of the space station.

With the three large aerospace transport planes, the "Tiangong" space station, the "Oriental Star" space city, the space power station, and the moon base jointly cooperated by Xinhuaguo, the four major groups, and Hualong can be immediately put into operation.

Although the "Hope" aerospace plane is kept strictly secret, the ultra-high-density flight that takes off every day or two must not be concealed, and Li Jianguo has learned some details. I was immediately surprised.

Xinhua has long announced plans for the "Tiangong" space station. Information about the space aircraft "Hope" was also revealed.

What Li Jianguo never expected was. Xinhuaguo's space program will be implemented so quickly, and the capacity and progress of aerospace aircraft will be so amazing.

Previously, many international aerospace experts scoffed at Xinhuaguo's 4,000-ton space station plan, believing that it was pure nonsense, but now they have found that Xinhuaguo may really create a miracle and have the ability to build a super-large space station before the end of this year.

The International Space Station, which is made up of more than a dozen countries, is nothing compared to it.

After the completion of the Dawn aerospace aircraft. In addition to launching various satellites of Hualong Kingdom, Galaxy Aerospace also carries out satellite launch services around the world at an ultra-low price of one-third of the market price, and can send satellites to the sky in a few hours, which can be called fast, cheap and thoughtful service.

Since then, the commercial satellite launch services of various countries can be declared to be over, and rocket launches have no cost advantage in the face of aerospace aircraft.

Dongfang Airport is located in the south of Oriental New City, and after half a year of expansion, there is an additional space base of Oriental Space Science and Technology Company.

The third, the Dream, is parked here. It will undertake the task of building the space power station, officially named "Dongfanghong", and sometimes assist the Xinhua Space Agency. Participate in the construction of the space station.

Choosing this place as the Eastern Space Science and Technology Space Base has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that it is close to the Oriental New City, which is convenient for personnel to come and go and materials to be transported.

When building a space power station, the aerospace aircraft have to transport dozens of tons of materials into space every day, which requires good transportation conditions, and if it is located in a remote area, it will be very troublesome.

The disadvantage is naturally that the secrecy is not strong, and the take-off and landing of other aircraft at the airport will also interfere with the work of the aerospace aircraft.

Fortunately, the take-off and landing process of aerospace aircraft is similar to that of ordinary aircraft, and it is very safe.

If it is a traditional rocket launch, the space base must not be built near a densely populated area, and it is difficult to imagine that it is next to an airport due to low latitudes and local climate factors.

The biggest difficulties of space power stations are: first, the cost of transporting materials into space is too high; the second is wireless power transmission technology; The other is space junk and solar energy conversion efficiency.

After solving these difficulties, the entire construction work is not difficult, it is nothing more than a matter of time.

Oriental Space Science and Technology Co., Ltd. has launched a "seven-day space tour" project, which accepts tourists from all over the world, and each batch can send 20 tourists to space for a week, and the cost of each person is 100 million yuan.

This price is naturally very expensive for ordinary people, but compared with foreign space tourism, it is much cheaper.

And this price depends on the demand of the market, and it will slowly reduce some costs.

In fact, even if the cost is reduced to 10 million per person, Dongfang Space Technology will still make money, after all, the space plane can send 20 people and a batch of materials into space at a time, and the operating cost is not expensive, and the only thing that restricts is the reception capacity of the space hotel.

After the completion of the "Oriental Star" space city in the future, large-scale space migration and space tourism will be carried out. At that time, space tourism will gradually become democratic, and the cost will drop to hundreds of thousands or even less.

Before entering space, applicants need to train for a month at the space training base, which is much shorter than before.

Because the space plane is safe and convenient, in addition to the necessary physical tests, tourists mainly learn life skills such as diet and daily life under weightless conditions.

The first 20 visitors to sign up for the Guò space training will take to space on December 24 this year aboard the "Dream" space plane, becoming the first visitors to stay at the space station "Space Hotel" and spending Christmas and New Year's Day 2019 in space.

After the advertisement for space tourism was sent, many people did not believe it, because the time was almost May, and the space station of Xinhuaguo had not yet been seen at this time, and the so-called "space hotel" was still on the drawings.

However, the reputation of the Eastern Bloc is there, and it is impossible to make up a space hotel scam, and the fee is very considerate for tourists, not the full fee as soon as they sign up, but the installment payment before training, before liftoff and after returning.

Since the first astronaut went into space in the sixties, especially after the Lijian people landed on the moon, many people have been born with a "space dream".

It's just that it costs too much to realize this dream, and many people can only bury it deep in their hearts, while most of those who have the conditions will be moved and even put into action.

If nothing else, the rich people who have good relations with the Eastern Bloc alone are very interested in this space tourism, and by the end of May, more than 60 rich people have signed up, 23 of whom are foreign nationals.

And this number is still increasing, which makes people have to sigh that there are so many rich people.

As the first country in the world to send astronauts to the moon, it is a step behind in the construction of the lunar base, which makes the arrogant Lijian people convinced?

The country immediately increased its funding for the space industry, launched several major space programs, and announced that it would land on the moon again by 2020 and establish a permanent lunar base.

The Rakshasa Nation then announced that it would immediately build a new space station to act as a space transit station and land on the moon and establish a base in the coming years.

Not to be outdone, the European Union, the Japanese and Tianzhu countries have accelerated their own space programs.

The space programs of various countries have been proposed decades ago, but in the actual operation process, all countries have found that the optimism is too early, space is not so easy to touch, and the difficulties of technology and capital are like mountains, which are difficult for people to climb, and the original plans have been postponed.

This time, Xinhua and Hualong are menacing, with a momentum of "dominating space", and they have already achieved achievements that have attracted worldwide attention, forcing all countries to invest more forces in the field of space. (To be continued......)
