Chapter 492: We Need the Moon

Hushan Airport.

It is known as the "domestic aviation holy land", with more than 3,400 civil aircraft resident and more than 6,100 registered aircraft.

Over the past two years, it has undergone several rounds of expansion and re-ordering, with a separate chunk dedicated to flight schools.

It's August 15th, and there is still half a month before the official opening of the university, but the students of the new remote department have already gathered here in advance.

The new students in the province include all the departments that have established direct cooperative relations with the base, and the treatment of these students is completely different from that of the same school.

For example, military training, the Xinyuan Department has no military training, or it has been changed to air military training.

The rules of the flight school are basically the same as those of the Air Force, and the training regulations are similar, but they are much simplified depending on the situation, which is much more comfortable than military training.

This year's new students add up to a total of 1,400 people, which is much less than the current scale, which is the consequence of the base's "elite strategy".

Hu Dong stood on the high platform and swept his gaze over the more than 1,000 students, and the rotation of the Air Force major standing next to him was similar.

Hu Dong: "I said, your air force is recruiting all over the country every year, don't keep staring at us here." ”

Major: "Captain Hu, I'll take a look, just take a look." ”

“……”

The Pioneer and the Glory returned to Earth on August 12th and 13th, and Hu Dong felt that he was in good health, so he came to see this year's freshmen to feed them some chicken soup, after all, the appeal of the commander of H2 should still be good.

Of course, another important task is to convince the students that there is a future in aerospace in Xinyuan than in the Air Force, and in the latter's view, these students with excellent grades in various disciplines and basic training experience are simply natural elite pilots who have never given up poaching.

As the two of them spoke, there was a "buzzing" sound in the distance, which was the fleet that was ready to come and help.

In order to welcome the new students, the base made up 400 planes of various types, and after lining up in the distance, they formed a huge dense formation and swept from a low altitude of 1,000 meters.

However, these aircraft groups are mainly beginner and middle education aircraft, and after that, it is the welcome gift of the Air Force, because of the proximity to 611, they have gathered 24 J-20 and 2 Y-20 and 4 Y-9 to fly in formation.

Although the number is much higher than that of the previous fleet, the cheers received have not diminished at all.

The two flying formations did not do acrobatics or pull cigarettes, but they simply passed through the field at a low altitude, but they still brought the atmosphere to the climax at once.

Hu Dong took the opportunity to start painting cakes and pouring chicken soup, and the major on the side interjected a few words from time to time to propagate the air force.

The weather is relatively cool today, so Hu Dong stayed after the chicken blood and prepared to interact with these new students, and there may be apprentices he will bring in the future!

The students were obviously very happy to be able to interact with such an astronaut, but the first question Hu Dong heard made him a little unexpected.

"Mr. Hu, yesterday United Mining said that it would buy a hydrogen bomb to blow up the moon, so will we fly a space shuttle to drop a nuclear bomb in the future?"

The question immediately got the other students talking about it as well, and it was big news, and it's being discussed all over the world right now.

Hu Dong: "I don't think it's likely, after all, it's a bit difficult to fly a space shuttle to dive and bomb in a place where there is no atmosphere. ”

The little joke drew a lot of laughter, but the question itself wasn't serious, and everyone was happy.

Another student stood up:

"Mr. Hu, do we all have a chance to go to space?"

Hu Dong: "Of course, your future work location is in space, just the Yushu No. 1 base can accommodate 1,000 people, as well as the Guanghan Palace base, Mars in the future, and the super space station, 10,000 people are not enough, and you will miss the ground in the future."

It's no joke, even at the fastest speed at the moment, it would take a year to get to and from Mars, a business trip could be two years if you count the work mission, and the mission period of Jupiter and Saturn could be ten years. ”

"Can we be faster, then? For example, developing a better spaceship......"

Hu Dong: "At present, the base is working on this, we already have the most advanced nuclear engine in the world, and we are still working hard to develop stronger and faster models, so that people in the future can travel to the solar system within a month." ”

“……”

The interactive session lasted for an hour, and before leaving, the principal of the flight school, who was in charge of taking the new students, stopped him:

"Captain Hu, how do you arrange the visit schedule for these freshmen? Now the base is strictly managed, and Mr. Ye did not approve it. ”

Hu Dong scratched his head, there will definitely be a visit, but for the sake of confidentiality, it is definitely necessary to prepare in advance, and now the base is undergoing OGAS2.0 transformation, which is a bit troublesome at this time.

"I'll ask the president, only he can call the shots."

"Okay, I'm sorry for you."

……

The impact of the press conference was greater than expected, and even overshadowed the heat of "Snow Bird".

Lin Ju extremely suspected that this was a decoy thrown by his superiors in order to divert his attention, and he exploded a hydrogen bomb on the moon, and it was a lot of hydrogen bombs with a large yield, and the attention aroused by this topic can be imagined.

After the press conference, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) immediately expressed their opposition, not only believing that this was a flagrant violation of the Outer Space Treaty, but also that the impact was extremely bad.

The current UN secretary-general, a native of Luzon, has directly denounced the practice in front of the media as "naked expansion of force", "extremely irresponsible for the future of humanity", and "a conspiracy by certain forces to subvert peace".

The opposition of various other international organizations, such as environmental protection organizations, is also quite clear, claiming that this is bringing "human destruction" to space, and more radically opposing the mining operation of United Mining on the Moon, believing that it affects the ecological environment of the Moon, destroys the harmony of space and space, and will have a huge impact on the tides and endanger all mankind.

In other countries, especially the island countries, the opposition is the strongest, and these countries have shouted the slogan "The 21st century is not the century of nuclear bombs", arguing that mankind should completely abandon nuclear weapons, not use them for any purpose, and should continue to reduce the number of nuclear weapons.

So what is the reaction of the people, the people?

The day after the press conference, a mass march broke out in Aramco, with the main demands being:

"We need the moon."

The simple Aramco people thought that the hydrogen bomb would blow the moon to pieces, and then everyone would not even have to look at the moon.
