Time.

The entire office of the Ministry of Defense was covered with a depressing atmosphere.

The hearts of everyone at the scene seemed to be pressed against a big mountain.

They have thought that there may be some gap between them and the current level of technology.

However, they never imagined that this gap would be so large!

Judging from the current level of science and technology of others, I am afraid that in a while, space immigration will be possible!

And now they can't even do the simplest return to the moon!

They really don't understand, what's wrong with this?

To know.

Their previous investment in aerospace was not low, almost all of them threw tens of billions or tens of billions of dollars into it!

Moreover, this kind of investment is definitely not the kind of once or twice!

But their entire aerospace development is still invisible!

They still have a huge gap with the technological level of the whole world!

At this moment, it was as if there was a heavenly battle in front of them, so that they had no possibility of crossing at all!

They now feel as if they are completely out of this era!

The gap between primitive man and industrial civilization is nothing more than that!

But the gap between them and the current era in terms of scientific and technological level is much bigger than this gap!

It's been a long, long time.

The top commander of the Ministry of Defense came out of that desperate mood and said:

"This thing...... That's it for now! Even if we increase our investment in aviation and aerospace now, it will be absolutely impossible to catch up with the current era in a short period of time! ”

"And...... We can't afford to take things as lightly as we used to! We have to change the way we think about a lot of things about technology in this day and age! ”

"Now we ...... It's no longer possible to cope with so many research projects at the same time! This is a completely unrealistic thing for us now! ”

"The only thing we can do right now...... That is, to get the two projects of fully intelligent AI assistance system and controllable nuclear fusion as soon as possible! ”

"Relatively speaking, these two projects are our top priorities right now! As for the aerospace side of the project...... Let's give up for now! ”

"If you don't even want to give up on those aerospace projects...... Then we will only lose more! In this day and age, we are no longer allowed to work on so many projects at the same time! ”

The words of the top minister of the Ministry of Defense revealed a bit of helplessness.

After all, this is the first time they have faced such a situation.

To know.

They were once veritable scientific behemoths!

At that time, there were 10,000 scientific research projects that were carried out at the same time, if not 8,000!

Moreover, among these projects, there are also some projects that consume a lot of money and are very difficult to develop.

For them back then, it wasn't much of a problem!

After all, as a country with the highest level of science and technology in the whole Blue Star.

They have plenty of time to slowly work on R&D! There are also enough resources to engage in multi-line flowering!

R&D more projects, for them, can be said to be a hundred benefits and no harm!

But now it's different!

Now they are too far from this era!

The words "scientific research monsters" have nothing to do with them!

They are now almost no different from "scientific research ants"!

Now they can only concentrate on one or two more important projects first!

Conduct multiple research projects at the same time...... That's absolutely unthinkable!

Hear these words from the Supreme Commander of the Ministry of Defense.

Everyone at the scene nodded in agreement.

The person in charge of NASA even opened his mouth to comfort everyone:

"Don't be too anxious! They're now experimenting...... Isn't this just getting started? Isn't this unsuccessful? Who knows if their experiment will succeed in the end? ”

"After all...... A space vehicle capable of flying to Mars is much more complicated than we thought! Their experiment was definitely not so easy to succeed! ”

"In terms of our current level of science and technology at Bluestar...... Surely you can't do that kind of thing! There's bound to be something unexpected happening! ”

"Even if the other party has a much higher level of science and technology than us, it is still a bit fantastical for them to realize this dream as a private company!"

"If only it were to go to the moon, it would be pretty much the same! If you really want to go to Mars...... This distance is still too far after all! It's still too hard to implement! ”

"Even if there is a gap between us and the current level of technology, it will definitely not be so big! It's absolutely impossible! ”

In the end, the head of NASA had confidence written on his face, and it could almost be said that he swore by it!

These words he said, although they meant to comfort these people at the scene.

But it's not just deliberately said to comfort these people!

What he said is not a lie!

Even...... It can be said that he really thinks about himself!

After all, there are so many people here on the scene, and there are talents from all majors and fields!

But if it is about aerospace, there is certainly no one who knows better than him!

He knows very well how difficult it is for Jiaxing to do this kind of thing now!

If you want to fly to Mars, you need a spacecraft!

This kind of thing...... Even if it is given to them for decades, they definitely don't even dare to think about it!

If you can't even think of it...... How can it be successful?

This kind of thing in this day and age is purely a fool's dream!

Although for the time being, there are no problems with their experiment in Jiaxing.

However, he was convinced that it was only a matter of time!

After a while, the latest version of that aerospace plane will have some accidents and will not work!

It's just not time for the problem to arise yet!

This experiment ...... Surely it will not succeed!

After hearing these words from the head of NASA.

The rest of the people at the scene instantly became much calmer.

Although they don't know much about aerospace, what the other party said undoubtedly made them feel a lot more at ease.

At the very least, it can ease their nervousness and make it easier for them to deal with the problems that lie ahead.

…………

Meanwhile.

On the other side of the blue star, normal experiments are going on intensely.

At this moment, this experiment has come to its last moment.

Through the cameras in the live broadcast room, many people can already see Mars in front of them!

Especially...... At this distance, even many details on Mars can be seen very clearly!

Although, the plane didn't really land on Mars.

Not even the atmosphere of Mars penetrates, but only rotates around the periphery of the orbit near Mars.

However, this is enough to make these viewers in the live broadcast room excited and excited!

To know.

This is the first time in a long time that humans have come up close to Mars so closely! And so close to Mars!

If you look at the previous speed of technological development, if this kind of thing wants to be realized, it will take a few more decades to achieve it!

This is still relative to many researchers! This is relative to many astronauts who have undergone countless professional trainings!

And for ordinary people, this kind of thing, if they wanted to achieve it, it would take at least a hundred years to achieve!

After all, it is far more difficult to send ordinary people to the vicinity of Martians than to send astronauts who have undergone countless professional trainings!

Time.

The entire live broadcast room was like a volcanic eruption, and countless barrages erupted in an instant.

All the audience couldn't help but marvel at this scene in front of them.

All kinds of unbelievable voices are like waves of the sea, spreading throughout the live broadcast room.

"Is this Mars? Is this our brother planet of Blue Star? This...... It's the first time I've seen Mars look like for the first time! ”

"It's the first time I've seen Mars up close to what it looks like! I used to ...... I've just seen it with a telescope! It's just that what you see in the telescope is much smaller! I can't see it at all! ”

"I didn't expect that! In such a short time, you can see it so clearly! Moreover, after a while, when the long-range version of this aerospace aircraft can be mass-produced, and, after it is put into use......"

"Wouldn't we be able to go up and see for ourselves? This has been the dream of many of us astronomy enthusiasts for thousands of years! I didn't expect it to come true so quickly! ”

"This dream came true...... It seems a little too sudden! It's a little too incredible! I thought I wouldn't be able to see it even when I died! ”

"It's impossible to talk about any close encounters! Our current technology ...... It's developing a little too fast! It's Mars! Still so close and close! ”

Countless viewers kept shouting in the live broadcast room, and everyone's faces were full of excitement.

Everyone was so excited that they almost couldn't control their bodies at all!

In particular, many astronomy enthusiasts are so excited that they can't control themselves!

After all, humans have been observing many planets since ancient times.

For Mars, the closest planet to the blue star, it was recorded by some astronomical researchers a long time ago.

In addition, many modern studies on Mars have found many similarities between Mars and Blue Star.

and then gave Mars the name of a brother planet.

In other words, if you want to go to space, Mars is definitely the first planet of choice.

It's just that this kind of thing, if it was put in the past, everyone was just a casual fantasy.

This kind of thing...... A lot of the time, it's just a sci-fi movie.

But now, it's likely that it's not just a science fiction movie!

It is estimated that it will not be long before the dream of human immigration to Mars is really going to come true!

Just when these people in the live broadcast room were full of surprises.

In the live broadcast room.

Jiang Chen pointed to the picture taken on the camera and said:

"Now our level of science and technology, in fact...... It's still too slow! For the time being, that's all you can see! ”

"Even after a while, after our project is launched, people will only be able to see these things! Of course! At that time, everyone will go up and experience it for themselves! ”

"But that's not the end of our project! After this step is achieved, we will consider the follow-up to let our space plane land on the ground on Mars. ”

And then ...... Let's experience real space tourism! Of course! This kind of thing...... It's going to take a long time to get there! ”

"For the time being, we can't do this kind of thing! For us now, this matter is still a little difficult! ”

"However, we are also preparing for this! It will take some time, but it won't be too long! ”

Since it's space tourism, it's certainly not just about letting these people go around Mars.

Jiang Chen had actually been thinking about building an aerospace plane that could land on Mars and return smoothly!

In this case...... The fun of traveling will seem a little more!

At the same time, it will be more in line with the name of the project "Space Tourism".

It's just that, for the time being, it's still a little difficult to achieve this.

After hearing Jiang Chen's words.

The whole live broadcast room was stupid!

It's as if everyone has forgotten that the live stream is going on now.

Everyone looked at the scene in front of them, and they were dumbfounded and dumbfounded!

A burst of unbelievable voices kept boiling in the hearts of these people, like a boiling oil pot!

In the hearts of many people, it is as if a giant storm of more than a dozen levels has been blown.

After all, what Jiang Chen just said was too explosive and incredible!

A sound full of shock, like ocean waves, kept rolling in the hearts of these people.

"Isn't it! This...... Did I hear me wrong? Isn't there really something wrong with my ears? Or is there something wrong with my signal here? ”

"Brother Chen, this ...... What was just said? Landing on Mars? Make no mistake! Even now, we shouldn't be able to do that, right? ”

"This is outrageous! And, listening to Brother Chen, this plan is being studied? Is this project in development? And, in the near future, it will be realized? ”

"Our current science and technology ...... Has it come to this extent? Can you already start thinking about how to get to Mars? ”

"And, this ...... We're just ordinary people! Not a trained astronaut! Is it possible to do this with science and technology now? ”
