"Are you ready?"

"Always ready."

On the last step of the ramp of the lander, Deng Lei and Leana stood sideways together, and then solemnly stepped out of the left (right) foot at the same time, leaving the first footprint on the lunar surface together.

The two who were supporting each other stood up with each other's help, Deng Lei's brain was a little empty now, and he felt the solid ground hard before saying:

"All the resources of the Moon are owned by all mankind and will be used for the benefit of the people of the world."

With that, he pushed Reyana back.

The latter was stunned for a moment, and then a trembling voice appeared on the radio:

"We have lifted your veil, and now your eyes are discerning."

An ordinary Qur'anic quote that believers all over the world have recited do not know how many times, but now it is as if it were the first time they have heard it from Mohammed himself.

In the ground command center, Lin Ju and Academician She looked at the Abel delegation who was about to go crazy, and applauded cooperatively.

Academician She picked up the microphone in the bustle and said to the last astronaut in the lander in a small voice:

"It's your hole two."

"Hole two understand."

Li Wei only walked down from the hatch at this time, and everyone was more in favor of him taking the first step, but he resolutely rejected the proposal, saying that his current identity is "an employee of the United Mining Tianmu No. 2 Exploration Team", and Deng Lei went down first to be more suitable for the commercial nature of the mission.

He is now 52 years old and enough to face everything calmly.

Under the gaze of the two astronauts who had already landed on the lunar surface, he smoothly walked to the ground step by step.

"I feel good, I'm proud of my country."

[Event: Space Race.]

The manned vehicle built by the base carried out a mission to the moon in cooperation with a third-party lander, sending a base astronaut to the moon, a third world astronaut to the moon, and an important person to the moon.

This mission is not included in the autonomous landing operation of the base, but it is still of great significance and has a significant impact on the world's space pattern.

Note: The first phase of this event will be settled on December 31st, please complete the login mission as soon as possible.

The ground command center, hearing the prompt of the system, Lin Ju recalled the progress of the XH40, and now it has been confirmed that it will roll off the assembly line in October and make the first flight in November, and there is still plenty of time.

Although this is not considered to be a moon landing carried out by himself in the eyes of the base, Academician She does not think so and sincerely congratulates him:

"Now Xinyuan is the only private enterprise in China and the world that has an independent moon landing and can still land on a large scale, you have done a very good job, congratulations."

Lin Ju: "I suddenly thought about whether United Mining should be listed? Otherwise, it should be possible to increase the limit by now. ”

Academician She: "......"

United Mining really has a listing plan, but the original plan was to wait for the "Yushu" base to be listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange when the initial start of construction, and make a good start.

But now that Lin Ju said this, he suddenly felt a little pity, and he always felt that he had lost a lot.

Not to mention that the money is a small amount of money, the space agency now uses too many places to use money: Tiangong Space Station, Qianqian Space Station, Dawning Program, Chang'e Program, and Tianwen Program are all very expensive projects, and almost half of the funds on the account have been consumed.

Although the manned landing on Mars has been confirmed, the funds will not be approved until the conference in February next year, and even if there is an important help from Advance, it will be necessary to invest at least hundreds of billions of yuan to complete the Mars program.

This is not an exaggeration, the environment and distance of Mars determine the exponential rise in cost, every launch mission has to be a 100-ton giant rocket, and because of the distance and window factors, the ferry boat is not very effective.

The completion of the assembly of the Endeavour does not mean that everything is fine, on the contrary, the cost of familiarization and maintenance of such a large space station is astronomical.

The current Tiangong space station weighs three times that of the original world line, plus extremely frequent launch missions (11 manned missions including commercial flights were carried out in 2017), the annual maintenance cost is as high as 7 billion yuan, and the advance space can easily use more than 230 billion yuan.

And how much money did the space agency receive in 2017? The disclosure is 13.8 billion US dollars (the budget of the Sugon Plan is included in the 2015 expenditure), about 95 billion yuan.

If United Mining can make money in various ways, not to mention making a profit, it will be a lot to subsidize one-third or even one-quarter of the expenditure.

This is also thanks to the fact that most of the rockets in service are recyclable and reusable, and they can also undertake commercial launches to make some money, otherwise they will have to increase by tens of billions.

In the more than 20 years from 1992 to 2014, the space agency spent 20 billion yuan, and the budget figure for the next three years was ten times that of it.

Although this process of vigorously producing miracles and relying on industrial advantages and abundant funds to sprint forward is very comfortable, Academician She still has not forgotten the traditional virtues of diligence and thrift.

At the beginning, Seryov also took the Tengyun project into his hands, I don't know how the progress is?

……

"Reana, you are the hero of Abor, you are the first people of Allah to land on the moon."

At the Mukara Cosmodrome, King Hamand, the "commander-in-chief" and "captain of the Abel astronaut team", was connecting with Reana, and a face under a white turban and an astronaut covered by a golden mask appeared in the global live broadcast at the same time.

Due to the Arbor royal family's money offensive against all broadcast media around the world, there are no ads during this time period, except for the watermark, the Chinese/Aberbor bilingual subtitles are streaming below, and the green theme color scheme is used, and it seems that they themselves landed on the moon.

Robert, the newly appointed NACA director, looked at these money-only tyrants with a blank face, and his heart was indignant.

In fact, they didn't want to bring Abel closer to the Artemis program, and also promised to let Abel's astronauts land on the moon first, but、But because the NACA of the new century is too 'pigeon', Abel finally chose Xinyuan, which even the space shuttle is willing to sell.

That's more than 10 billion US dollars, and even SLS can make three shots, why are these local tyrants unwilling to trust the traditional elite?

Although NACA has not fallen off the altar due to the accumulation of the past, it can be regarded as precarious, and most people's perception of NACA has changed from "the light of civilization" to "the light that has become a little unreliable".

Robert now has to deal with the Artemis II accident investigation team, while vigorously reorganizing the entire space system, actively preparing for the Mars program, hoping to make a comeback.

Looking at the opponent's mission to the moon is also part of the plan.
