In the video, the silver-white cylindrical core module floats quietly in orbit around the moon, and from a distance, the fist-sized electric propulsion vent blooms with blue arc light, pushing the core module to slowly turn.

Soon the folded solar panels spread outward, like an eagle with wings spread, spreading its wings towards the rising sun.

From the exit to the stable operation, the video is only a short ten minutes, and the Xiangrui, which has successfully entered orbit, sailed to the end of the intersection of daylight and the moon in a twilight.

This scene is like a painting.

In less than half an hour after the video was released, the comment area below the video was already bursting with excited netizens.

[Is that our Moon Palace?] It's beautiful! (excited) (excited)】

[Cool!! 】

[I hope I will have the opportunity to go up and see it in my lifetime.] (Erha) (Erha)】

[This moon looks too desolate, why don't we plant something on it.] (funny)]

【Heavy Weapons of a Great Power!! Huaguo V5 !! (fist) (fist)】

For many years, China has been closely following the pace of Western countries in the field of aerospace, and the success rate and carrying capacity of the Chang-5 rocket are often criticized.

Now, Huaguo has finally achieved corner overtaking in the field of electric propulsion, and with its own strength, it has sent the space station to the lunar orbit and walked in front of the world with its head held high.

The bitterness and hardships along the way, as well as the hard-won, I am afraid that only the Chinese astronauts themselves know!

In less than an hour after the successful orbit of the Yuegong, the news quickly spread across the ocean and overseas.

NASA first confirmed the news on its official website and Twitter, alerting the Russian Space Agency, ESA, and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) to also make relevant announcements and send congratulatory messages to China.

Regardless of whether there is competition or not, and whether the congratulations are heartfelt or not, acknowledging the strength of the opponent is also a matter of respect for oneself.

Even if there is 10,000 reluctance in their hearts, NASA has to admit that Huaguo's actions on the moon have exceeded their expectations.

Even they are 100% sure that they will be able to build a space station in lunar orbit, and in this sense, the Chinese have indeed done what they can't.

And just after the major space agencies confirmed the news of the successful launch of the Moon Palace into orbit, the BBC reporter synthesized the interviews with NASA officials and the spokesman of the China Space Administration, and made a summary report on the whole incident from a neutral point of view......

“…… At present, China has been ahead of the world in the exploration and development of lunar resources. No country has ever been able to build a semi-permanent facility in the erratic orbit of the moon and ensure that it can operate at a stable altitude for a long time. ”

According to NASA experts, the reason why Yuegong has been able to achieve such great success is mainly due to the significant progress made by Huaguo in electric propulsion technology. Compared to chemical propulsion, which is not easy to handle precisely, electric propulsion technology is indeed superior in terms of maneuverability. ”

"I have to say that this is very surprising, compared with the traditional space powers, China's space industry is far inferior to the old space power Russia and the United States, which has successfully established a set of aerospace commercial development models, both in terms of starting point and commercialization."

"But anyway, they did."

"The success of Luna Palace may be only a small step in the history of human spaceflight, but it is a big step for our civilization and the whole world to move into the future!"

Very rarely, the BBC gave a rare positive report on Huaguo and the Moon Palace in this neutral report. After the relevant report video was put on YouTube and other video websites, it immediately aroused widespread heated discussions among foreign netizens.

Compared with the excitement and excitement of domestic netizens, these hot voices are somewhat filled with all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Especially netizens in North America, the launch of the life support unit before it made many people excited for a while. However, in less than a month, the core module of Huaguo Yuegong was officially announced to be commissioned in lunar orbit, ahead of the United States.

If there is no gap in the heart, it is absolutely impossible.

Of course, there are people who don't care.

For example, a well-known talk show host Jamie Tang posted a tweet on his Twitter to cheer for NASA.

[I heard that Huaguo's Moon Palace was successfully launched? I don't know why you're down, I just want to tell you it's nothing big. 】

[Although China has successfully sent the space station to the moon, our NASA has sent colonies to Mars, tens of millions of kilometers away, and anyone with a little vision can see which one is more difficult and which one is ahead of this race. 】

[What's more, we also have plans to build a space station on the moon, which is the "Deep Space Gate"!] It's just that compared with Huaguo, we pay more attention to safety and science, so we have carefully set the construction period in 2022. 】

[Not just the Moon, our BFR rocket is already approaching the sky over Mars, and soon we will be able to confirm the condition on the life support unit and send our colonists to plant the Stars and Stripes on the New World!] 】

[My name is Jamie Tang, and I'm an ideal talk show host.] CCN has a talk show about three astronauts next Saturday night, and it's an honor to partner with The New York Times. 】

【……】

The tension created by this space race is spreading from the technical field to other fields at an incredible speed.

At this moment when public opinion was boiling, far away at the White House in Washington, a black sedan stopped at the door.

Director Carson, who was wearing a blue suit, pushed the car door and stepped out of the car, did not stay at the door for long, and walked quickly towards the White House with a serious expression.

After a short time, in front of the president's office, Director Carson stood at the door and knocked on the door, and after hearing a "please come in", he immediately reached out and pushed the door open and walked in.

When he walked into the office, the president, sitting behind his desk, seemed to be in a daze at a file.

Seeing this, Director Carson hesitated, a little unsure if he should go up and disturb him at this time.

However, he only hesitated.

Just half an hour ago, he received two messages in a row, and neither of them allowed him to delay......

The Adam's apple moved slightly, and Director Carson took a deep breath and spoke.

"Mr. President."

The monotonous voice, in the silence of the office, seems a little eerie.

As if weighing something, the president, who was sitting behind his desk, did not raise his head, his eyes still fixed on the document on the table.

Still, after a brief silence, the president responded briefly to his voice.

"What's the matter?"

Clearing his throat, Director Carson made his tone sound as relaxed as possible, and spoke, "...... Dear Mr. President, I have a good news or a bad news here, which one would you like to hear first? ”

As if he was thinking seriously about the question, and as if he had not yet departed from his previous thoughts, the president was silent for a while, and the signature pen in his hand slowly turned around, and suddenly threw out a sentence of unknown meaning.

"I'm used to getting rid of the broccoli as a side dish before enjoying the steak."

Hearing the unexpected answer, Director Carson was slightly stunned, lowered his head and frowned.

“…… Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean. ”

"I mean, I hate the taste of broccoli and I hate having to think about whether or not to leave that extra ...... after eating the perfect meal."

Placing the pen next to the CIA-bearing document on the desk, the president stared at Director Carson standing at his desk, fingers crossed.

"Let's start with the bad news."
