In just a few hours, the topic of discussion changed.

But it can't be helped, in the eyes of ordinary people, amateur rockets are really useless except for playing and being a monkey.

If you can't transport things into space, it's basically scum.

It is simply not known that cheap amateur rockets can be used as sounding rockets, which are cost-effective equipment for exploration and scientific experiments in near-Earth space.

Sounding rockets can be used to detect the structural components and parameters of various layers of the atmosphere in the altitude direction, and study various solar-terrestrial physical phenomena such as the ionosphere, geomagnetic field cosmic rays, solar ultraviolet and X-rays, meteorites, etc.

It flies higher than a sounding balloon and lower than an artificial earth satellite operating in low orbit, and is an effective detection tool at an altitude of 30~200 kilometers.

Compared with the amateur rockets that are not well-known, the moon is much more well-known, and even the plan to explore the moon seems so lofty.

Not to mention abroad, it just so happens that China will launch the Chang'e-5 probe at the end of the year, and its mission is to collect lunar soil and return.

It is the most critical probe in the third phase of the lunar exploration project, and it is also the final battle of the Tianxia lunar exploration project.

After that, it's time for the manned moon landing project.

Originally, Chang'e-5 was supposed to be launched two years ago, but the delay of the Long March 5 further made people realize that it is not easy to explore the moon.

Seeing that the launch is still a few months away, at this time, Merrican has actually restarted the lunar Grand Prix program, allowing a large number of private companies to compete for prize money, and the rules of the competition coincide with the mission of Chang'e-5, which will inevitably make people think too much.

"If private space companies can do this, will there be a future for that summer's spaceflight?"

Don't think anyone won't think so.

Some people's minds are very fragile, not to mention those who fish in troubled waters, and the results of the competition in two years can be brought out now, and by the way, the Chang'e-5 mission will be criticized in a few months.

This is also the genius of Merriken, a seemingly simple thing, it will also hide several layers of secret tricks, so that others cannot be guarded against.

Soon, ordinary people are still discussing the surface information of this Grand Prix, and some bigwigs have begun to dissect the secret routine.

Analysis results: The competition of Merrican this time is just to gather some tool people to set off their own aerospace science and technology strength, so that various international forces can see that they are still the strongest on the earth.

After the end of World War II, the Merriken and Snow Bear alliance looted a large number of rocket technology and rocket engineers, and then desperately developed space technology.

Then Snow Bear hung up, and Merrican almost hung up because of this.

Thanks to the snow bear's early hanging, it breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly embarked on the path of self-esteem.

After the snow bear is gone, there is a bunch of bear cubs left, and Merriken is not at ease, and even the bear cubs have flickered to death.

In the past ten years, relying on the complete aerospace industry system that Merrican spent money to save in that crazy era, a number of professional private aerospace companies have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and quickly grew into thick bamboo.

If you want to say that the strength of various private aerospace companies is strong, in fact, the source is still the strength of the aerospace system of Merriken, after all, it was not in vain to spend money in those years.

This is not envious, and if you don't spend money, you can only watch it with a blank eye.

In connection with this Moon Grand Prix, it is said that private space teams from all over the world can participate, but which country's private space team can compare with the private space strength of Shangmei Rickon.

Not even private space teams, some national teams are not as good as some of the top private space companies in Merrican, such as a ...... in Asia

Third brother: "It's definitely not me, I'm very strong, I've even explored Mars, and the one who hasn't gotten out of the Earth-Moon system is the weakest."

Sakura: "It's not me, I've even explored asteroids, and the one that hasn't made it out of the Earth-Moon system is the weakest."

Althea Flowers: "Look at what I'm doing, everything you probe is mine."

Tianxia: "...... With limited funds and different development priorities, we are down-to-earth and steady."

The Remaining: "???"

"Groove, don't we even have a name?!"

Back to the point.

Previously, Merrican had signed commercial moon landing contracts with several private space companies, although it was only a one-way ticket to send the equipment safely to the surface of the moon, but it was already a symbol of strength.

After all, so far, only three national teams have this ability.

If a private company can do this, it will undoubtedly be a feat and the beginning of another step for the space industry.

With the lander, the lander with the return function is not far away, and several companies are working in this direction, all to bid for Merrican's return to the moon.

So this time, it is said that the whole world can participate, and the winners will choose the partners of the moon landing program, but in fact, they will choose from the major private space companies in their own families.

These companies are originally alternative companies, and participating in this competition is just going through the motions, and by the way, you can get some bonuses.

It was just perfect.

As for the other participating teams......

Sorry, you're just tools.

But if you want to say that other people's games are unfair, other people's game rules are actually the fairest.

It's about winning with technology!

Moreover, they will also make documentaries, show promotional videos of various teams, announce the details of the moon landing, and even conduct live broadcasts of the moon landing, and will also hold a public exhibition of lunar soil after the sample returns.

Everything is under the supervision of the whole world.

If that's not fair, then what is.

However, people's private space technology is the most advanced.

If you want to surpass others, you can, throw money.

This problem can be solved .jpg kryptonite

If it is a national team, for the sake of face, it may be a bit of a krypton, referring to that crazy era.

However, this competition is limited to private teams.

Not to mention whether the private team has so much money, but there is so much money, unless your team is full of idealists with space dreams, otherwise no team will spend this money.

So, that's it.

There are a lot of people who can see these things, but there will still be a large number of private teams signing up for this competition.

Even in China, Merriken knows the strength of several large companies, and they are also the approved moon landing partners of the Space Agency, and a large number of small space companies and small teams have signed up for the competition.

It doesn't matter if you can't make it to the finals, what matters is that you must show your face, and only by showing up can you become famous.

When you become famous, whether you start your own company or enter some large companies, you can have a layer of aura, and you can make money with aura.

And if you are lucky enough to enter the finals, you can definitely show a big face, and only by showing a big face can you make a lot of money.

The same is true of private space companies in other countries.

So soon, within an hour of the press conference, the Merriken space agency received the first entry form.

It is a small group in Merriken that has never heard of a name, and there are only five members.

Tom, who was in charge of the review, smiled at the time: "Sure enough, just like last time, the smaller the team, the faster the registration, and the really strong team will not sign up at this time." ”

"Haha, you're right Tom," Jerry, who was sitting next to him, also said with a smile: "I also received one, the team name is 'Canxing Lunar Landing Department', it's a small team of Tianxia, claiming to take the dream of gamers and use Canxing technology to go to the moon, which is a bit interesting." ”

"Oh, is it the Kanxing space program we usually play?" Spike, the other auditor, asked curiously.

"Yes, that's it, it also has a screenshot of the game showing the steps of their moon landing program," Jerry dragged down the registration form, "but the team is currently hiring, so there is only one 23-year-old captain, what an ideal little guy." ”

"I still want him to succeed, because I love the game." Spike said earnestly.

"So I decided to give him a pass, what do you think?"

"Hahaha, I also hope that they can succeed, then I will pass too."

"I'll pass it too."

"Yes, even for the sake of diversity in the participating teams."

Soon, the audit office was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
