Chapter 474 Moon Race?It depends on whether you can keep up
What is NASA doing?
The fact that the Phoenix Group, which has attracted worldwide attention, is about to collect "lunar solid water" has naturally also attracted intense attention from NASA.

NASA headquarters.

In Director William's office, the report on the "collection of solid water" project initiated by the Phoenix Group is in progress.

"...Director, this is probably the case. The Phoenix Group has already confirmed the launch time of their 'Donghai Dragon King' probe."

"After half a month, they will usher in their launch window."

After listening to Rui Jackson's report, Director William nodded expressionlessly.

The outside world may be surprised that the Phoenix Group is so efficient, but he has fought against the Phoenix Group for so long, and it is no longer surprising that the Phoenix Group has such a speed.

but……

William exhaled lightly, and his face did not feel depressed. Although the Phoenix Group is making rapid progress, NASA is not without action during these times.

Since receiving a special fund of US$2000 billion for "Manned Moon Landing", NASA has immediately integrated many excellent commercial rocket companies in North America. Boeing, SpeacX, Lockheed Martin and other companies have joined the support team of the SLS rocket.

"At the same time, we just took advantage of this time to announce our "Lunar South Pole Exploration Program" to the world - since the Phoenix Group has discovered "solid water" at the Moon's South Pole, we can't fall behind, and we have to Discover 'solid water' at the south pole of the moon as soon as possible!"

"Now...if we launch our SLS rocket right after them and launch our 'moon mission' at the height of their global attention, at least we are sending a strong response, telling the world that NASA is still there. It's not 'dead', but it still has the ability to return to the moon."

NASA was ecstatic when it was confirmed, and Rui Jackson, who was in charge at this time, announced it to the world immediately.

"North America is too strong, this is the hope of mankind, the light of technology, come on!"

As he walked towards the coffee machine, preparing to make a cup of coffee for Rui himself, he said:
"Rui, we can't keep our eyes on the Phoenix Group. Our SLS rocket is making good progress recently."

The first to speak was Chief Ouyang.

"Well, Rui, you are responsible for this matter yourself."

Rui Jackson's expression froze, and he responded immediately:

Upon seeing this, Director William became even more excited, and after thinking for a moment, he ordered:

Thinking of this, Chief William tapped his fingers on the table, looked at Rui, and comforted him:
"Ruy, don't be too anxious. We expected them to start collecting 'lunar solid water' so quickly."

"If we want to take the initiative, we should really speed up our 'moon exploration' progress."

but.

At the same time, it was announced that NASA will officially launch the "Lunar South Pole Exploration Program"-this SLS rocket reflection will send a "probe" to the lunar south pole to search for solid water and traces of life on the lunar south pole.

After a huge sum of money integrated the top launch vehicle team in North America, the effect was immediate.

Your Phoenix Group has detected the "solid water at the south pole of the moon", so I will also come to detect the solid water on the moon.

"Let's talk about our SLS rocket, how about it? Has the SLS rocket project team heard any good news these days?"

Chief William nodded in satisfaction.

There are constant quarrels in the major comment areas on the Internet platform, and many naval forces are still active in the comment areas, promoting the greatness of NASA.

"Let's execute according to our previously scheduled plan-from the moment their rocket lifts off, we will monitor their rocket throughout the entire process."

"Indeed, although the Phoenix Group is good, we still have to face up to the gap in terms of launch vehicles. It is not shameful to face up to the gap."

"Rui, this is definitely the best news I've heard in a while."

"...Damn it, the people upstairs are boasting too much, right? Why isn't there such praise in the comment section for the success of the Phoenix Group's rocket launch?"

With NASA's technical reserves, coupled with sufficient funds and the participation of top North American companies, the rocket issue is unlikely to become a long-term problem.

After finishing speaking, Master Ouyang pondered for a moment, then looked at Hu Lai again.

"Once the SLS rocket project team confirms that the rocket can be launched next month, then we will immediately announce it to the world!"

Half an hour later, General Manager Ouyang and Factory Manager Zhang came to Hu Lai's office. The purpose of the two was naturally to evaluate NASA's sudden announcement of the SLS rocket launch and the "Lunar South Pole Exploration Program".

"And after their probes land on the moon, we will coordinate our exploration satellites in lunar orbit to monitor them 24 hours a day, and try our best to grasp their latest daily developments."

"According to the consistent style of North America, after we discover 'solid water' on the moon, they will definitely step in and will never sit back and let us enjoy such an important scientific discovery to ourselves."

Under the propaganda offensive, many half-knowledgeable netizens were frantically led by the navy, bragging about NASA's awesomeness, and constantly slandering Yanguo Aerospace.

Hu Lai stated his opinion affirmatively, then looked at Factory Director Zhang and Chief Master Ouyang, and said slowly:
"NASA's solution to the problem of the SLS rocket is also within our expectations, and it is also a matter of high probability. We just look at it with a normal mind."

Factory Manager Zhang and Master Ouyang were right.

This is the power of soft propaganda.

"SLS rocket, full name 'Space Launch System', is a super-heavy launch vehicle evolved from the space shuttle. Its maximum take-off weight is as high as 2608 tons, and its carrying capacity in low-earth orbit is 95 tons. 27 tons, this is the largest rocket on earth, North America is awesome, NASA is awesome!"

"Before I came here, I specifically asked the SLS rocket research and development department about the latest progress—the fuel leak problem that has been bothering us seems to have found a solution last night."

"If you put them 'to the moon' before us, there's no question they'll regain the initiative."

As early as 2016, NASA proposed to launch the SLS rocket to start the North American "return to the moon" program.

"real?!"

"'Manned landing on the moon' is not that simple. Although NASA has solved the problem of the SLS rocket, it involves the safety of astronauts. The SLS rocket will not be easily used to carry people to the moon without full launch verification. From the perspective of technological development It can be deduced that it will be difficult for them to achieve 'revisiting the moon' in a short period of one or two years."

Thinking of this, Hu Lai couldn't help showing a smile.

The news spread back to China, and heated discussions broke out on the domestic Internet.

Hu Lai nodded slightly, agreeing with Ouyang's statement in his heart.

"Can you speed up the progress of the 'Looking at the Moon Rover' and the 'Mobile Charging Vehicle' to land on the moon? For example, this time, use the time window for launching the 'Donghai Dragon King' to land on the moon?"

of course.

Race to the Moon?

It's not that the Phoenix Group is not strong, but that NASA's years of prestige have really put a lot of pressure on it.

Unexpectedly, NASA solved the problem of the SLS rocket in a desperate situation, and finally caught up with the Phoenix Group's "lunar exploration" progress technically.

"Director, there is indeed good news."

Having said that, Rui Jackson finally showed a rare smile on his face.

He was slightly surprised and asked:

"That's right, why are a group of shepherd dogs claiming to be number one in the world? If it weren't for the delay of the SLS rocket launch so many times, I would have believed that NASA was number one in the world, and it turned out to be a pair of pigeons again!"

"Good guy, the Phoenix Group turned a blind eye when they sent the 'lunar rover' to the moon every minute, and when Father Mei came to hear the news, he knelt and licked frantically. It's an orgasm, right?"

After saying this, Director William couldn't help but walked back and forth in the office a few times.

However, the sky failed. In the past seven or eight years, the SLS rocket has been delayed due to various reasons. As a result, William and even the entire NASA executives do not have much confidence in the SLS rocket...

"Hehe, if you don't believe me, just wait for NASA to slap you in the face!"

have to say.

The various problems and delays encountered by the SLS rocket over the years are not a secret in the industry. At the beginning, he judged the possibility of the SLS rocket launch from a professional perspective.

"It's just... what I'm worried about now is what if they also find 'solid water' after landing on the south pole of the moon..."

"And we will soon be able to catch up with the Phoenix Group!"

During the period when the Phoenix Group discovered "lunar solid water", it was regarded as the biggest shortcoming of North America's "revisiting the moon"-many problems of the SLS super-heavy launch vehicle began to be solved one by one, and the "return to the moon" plan Finally saw a glimmer of light.

"And, there's one more thing we need to be aware of... Will they start a 'manned moon landing' program immediately after the successful launch of their SLS rocket?"

Phoenix Group, to be precise, Mr. Hu Lai Hu also received the news that NASA is about to launch the SLS rocket and officially launch the "Lunar South Pole Exploration Program".

Obviously, the meaning of the needle tip to the wheat awn is already very strong.

"Are you kidding me, can the Phoenix Group's rocket compare with the SLS rocket?"

Although he does attach importance to NASA, he has already thought clearly these days—that is, the Phoenix Group is the center, and Phoenix can go its own way.

"You know, we can now say that we are suppressing NASA and stabilizing them, but once they also discover 'solid water', our current position of being the only one in the world will obviously be greatly threatened."

Hu Lai frowned slightly.

Since NASA is trying everything possible to catch up with the Phoenix Group's progress on the moon, then...it depends on whether you can keep up.

"What do you two think of this matter?"

The prestige accumulated by North American NASA in the field of aerospace for so many years is not in vain. The successful resolution of the problem of the SLS rocket means that NASA has technically possessed the strength of "manned landing on the moon".

"It's not impossible. Everything is ready for the 'Donghai Dragon King', and several units of the 'Looking at the Moon Rover' and the 'Mobile Charging Vehicle' have already been produced."

After a while, he quickly put the hot coffee cup in front of Rui, and said excitedly:

"Of course, as Manager Zhang said just now, if NASA finds 'solid water' at the south pole of the moon, it will pose a huge threat to us... We should really pay attention to this issue."

Rui Jackson hummed lightly, and replied:
"Don't worry, Director, I will arrange this matter."

Hu Lai couldn't help laughing.

"That is to say, a few days after the Phoenix Group's 'Donghai Dragon King' probe landed on the moon, there is a high probability that we will be able to launch our SLS rocket and advance our mission to the moon!"

Director William was obviously stunned for a moment, and then his face became extremely joyful. He never thought that the surprise would come so suddenly.

If you want to continue to press NASA to "fight", then you need to continue to accelerate the progress of "lunar exploration".

"Shoot, it's so awesome to shoot, is the late launch still shoot?"

He looked at Master Ouyang and asked slowly:
"Master Ouyang, how is the situation of the 'Donghai Dragon King' we are about to launch?"

"Um……?"

"Deploy the 'Looking-Up Lunar Rover' and 'Mobile Charging Vehicle' on the Moon in advance?"

There was a brief silence in the office, and after a while, Director Zhang said:
"Boss, this is expected."

Ruy nodded emphatically in agreement.

The news quickly spread around the world. Unexpectedly, just a few hours later, those space agencies and scientific research institutions that had confidence in the Phoenix Group suddenly had an ambiguous attitude towards NASA, and they all complained to NASA on social media. it is good.

Ok?
Master Ouyang's expression froze for a moment, and he suddenly understood.

"It won't."

same.

"According to the inference of the Boeing team, if nothing goes wrong, the SLS rocket should be able to reach the launch status next month."

After a while, he finally stopped circling and said to Rui:

"it is good!"

Master Ouyang frowned instantly, his expression suddenly became dignified, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly:

You know, the SLS rocket has troubled NASA for a long time.

After a while, perhaps because he felt that the atmosphere in the office was too dull, a smile appeared on his face, and he stood up pretending to be relaxed.

"I believe that as long as our two news are released, the whole world will soon be able to focus on us again!"

"Boss, do you mean that this time the 'Donghai Dragon King' will add the task of carrying the 'Looking at the Moon Rover' and the 'Mobile Charging Vehicle' at the same time?"

In the future, whether the Phoenix Group or NASA will take the lead in "moon development", or whether the two powers are in opposition, facing such a situation, all the national space agencies began to wait and see silently.

"I also agree with you."

……

On the other hand, and more importantly, everyone can feel NASA's aggressive ambitions for the Phoenix Group.

"However, this time NASA not only announced the upcoming launch of the SLS rocket, but also announced their latest 'Lunar South Pole Exploration Program'. They will also launch a 'probe' to land on the Moon's South Pole to find solid water..."

And the other side.

"Rui, the time window this time is also just right. Originally, I was very worried that the Phoenix Group's probe to collect 'lunar solid water' would push their reputation to the top again after landing on the moon."

Hu Lai nodded without changing his expression.

As soon as the words fell, Ouyang, who was at the side, directly denied Director Zhang's last assumption.

As soon as the news came out, all industry insiders who were looking forward to NASA's response could not help but take a deep breath.

Although Hu Lai despised NASA strategically, he still attached great importance to it tactically when he learned about NASA's latest actions.

"But this time, after they received $2000 billion in funding, they invited some of the top rocket companies in the United States to join... So, I think it is very likely that they have solved the problem of the SLS rocket from a technical perspective."

As for NASA, they can only follow the Phoenix Group, and they can never lead the Phoenix Group.

"NASA now undoubtedly regards us as the number one competitor. After the success of their SLS rocket, they can't wait to aim at the 'solid water' in the first mission. Obviously, they are unwilling to compete with us, and they may even want to use This approach puts us in a 'race to the moon' with them."

At this time, the project that has been pigeonholed for seven or eight years suddenly "is in sight", and it has been solved at such a critical time of competition with the Phoenix Group. This...is really surprising and exciting.

"Boss, although NASA's SLS rocket has been delayed since its launch in 2016, and in the past year or so, they have been delaying the launch due to several important issues such as liquid hydrogen leakage and high-frequency resonance..."

Time passed quickly, and five days later, the SLS rocket project team finally sent the confirmed news—all the problems of the SLS rocket have been solved, and it is confirmed that the launch mission will be carried out next month!

"And from the perspective of time, it's still too late."

"It's just that in this way, the carrying capacity must be increased, and the improved Fufeng-[-] rocket that was originally prepared will be replaced by the more expensive Fufeng-[-] launch vehicle!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Hu Lai looked at Director Zhang who was at the side.

"Old Zhang, make a budget, the money will come out."
