Water Splashing Festival: Pink gun dazzles foreign girlfriend

Chapter 100 The sour taste of this moment permeates the whole world!
"Please tell me in detail, industry insider. Is the Lighthouse Country really that bad?"

Lina was shocked.

That’s the beacon country!
The biggest gangster on Blue Star!

Drag down the existence of the Russian bear!
The first country to land on the moon!

The Rabbit Country is thriving, how could the Lighthouse Country be so decadent?
[It doesn’t matter if you talk about it. People who know a little about aerospace can find relevant information by themselves. After all, many things can’t be covered up! For example, the Artemis program, the interstellar passenger ship program, and even NASA’s own extravehicular space suit program have all been postponed, and some have even been postponed again and again, with no limit on the extension!
But the money spent keeps increasing.

Money keeps being added, but plans are constantly being postponed. This is the current situation of NASA!
The main reason for this situation is NASA's comprehensive commercial transformation.

After the commercial transformation, the congressmen who hold the power of appropriation over NASA now bring the NASA director to Congress for hearings and questioning sessions from time to time.

What's even worse is that Congress is only concerned with accountability and issuing orders. They even asked NASA to withhold payments to contractors whose projects were indefinitely delayed and unfinished.

This request seems reasonable, but in fact it is completely making fun of NASA!
Although NASA is nominally the client of the contractors, in reality, the only two old aerospace giants left are Boeing and Lockheed Martin.

Which of these two companies is not a military-industrial complex with a deep background and too big to fail? They have a lot of connections in Congress, the Black House, and even NASA. Asking NASA to withhold the payment for these two companies is not making fun of NASA.
Not to mention withholding their money, NASA has to give them money first every time it gets a grant!
For example, Boeing and Lockheed Martin have been struggling for ten years and have lost NASA nearly 15 billion US dollars. The Starliner, which was supposed to make the first manned flight attempt to the International Space Station, was eventually announced to be postponed indefinitely because it could not be developed.

This was originally a plan to dock with the International Space Station, but the fact is that the International Space Station is about to expire! No, to be precise, it has been extended once! And this plan has been postponed indefinitely.

In other words, these 1.5 billion US dollars were gone without even a sound, and NASA has no way to hold them accountable!
This is not an isolated case, it is a common occurrence!

In fact, NASA knows that SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft is more user-friendly, and the efficiency of Boeing and Lockheed Martin is poor, but NASA not only cannot deduct the payment for the goods, it dare not even deduct the hundreds of millions of dollars in subsidies each year, let alone replace the contractor!
To put it bluntly, NASA is nominally the highest administrative department of the U.S. aerospace industry, but in reality NASA's money comes from appropriations by Congress, and members of Congress have close ties with those commercial aerospace companies. There are a group of big daddies everywhere, and no one can afford to offend them. NASA is like a mouse in a bellows, getting bullied from both ends.

Under such circumstances, how can the aerospace industry of the Lighthouse Country develop?
In addition, NASA itself has problems. After commercialization, NASA simply does not have the ability to conduct independent research and development.

NASA has been independently researching extravehicular space suits since 08, spending hundreds of millions of dollars, but it has not been successful so far and the plan has been repeatedly postponed.

Therefore, now NASA cannot even reproduce the technology used in the Apollo moon landing, let alone make further progress!
On the other hand, the Rabbit Country has been making great strides. It has only been a short time, but we didn’t expect that they are now planning to carry out the world’s first landing on the back of the moon!

If the plan succeeds, the NASA director will probably be called to Congress to be scolded again 2333]

Yang Xuan, Lina, and the audience in the live broadcast room were all stunned.

They knew that the Beacon Country was in a bad state, but they didn’t know it was so bad, to the point that they couldn’t even believe it!

It’s bad enough that we can’t build a spaceship, but we can’t even build a spacesuit?

And it’s an independent study by NASA. Isn’t this too abstract?

Everyone else is making rapid progress, but who would have thought that the Beacon Country is regressing so quickly.

Not only Yang Xuan and Lina did not expect it, even the people of the Beacon Country did not expect that NASA's regression would be so serious!
They only know that many of NASA’s space programs have been postponed again and again, but there is also progress, such as Starlink.

Now it seems that the only thing that their Lighthouse Country can offer is Starlink!

But Starlink has little to do with NASA and is almost entirely Maciej’s personal business.

In other words, over the years, NASA seems to have made no achievements in space exploration, and has only been spending money and regressing.

On the other hand, the Rabbit Country is moving closer to the stars one satellite after another, and they have been kept in the dark because of the blockade of relevant information, and are even complacent. Just now, for example, they looked down on the Rabbit Country's aerospace and suggested that everyone come to the Lighthouse Country to watch the satellite launch.

Thinking of their expressions just now, their faces turned blue and red with shame.

It's so damn embarrassing!
Just like a clown!
The main culprit that caused them to look like clowns is that the official media deliberately blocked information and Congress deliberately avoided the important issues and did not talk about this aspect, causing them to be seriously out of touch with the real world!
If they hadn’t heard the truth in Lina’s live broadcast room today, they would have continued to be deceived like clowns!

Even bring shame to the whole world!

When the audience in the Lighthouse Country thought of this, they felt an evil fire in their hearts, constantly running rampant in their bodies.

They finally understood why those violent old men rushed into the Black Palace and beat up those extremely hateful congressmen.

Not to mention those grumpy old guys, they now want to beat up those congressmen who never tell the truth!

So annoying!

They do nothing and are only interested in pleasure. They fail to do their job well, so they ban content from countries that have done well and achieved results. They are just trying to cover up the truth every day.

The most important thing is that they keep talking about freedom every day.

There is no freedom at all. People don’t even dare to face the truth about the world or make it public. People don’t even have the most basic right to know. What kind of freedom and human rights are we talking about?

Pooh!
Shameless!

The audience in the Lighthouse Country were all extremely angry.

There is a feeling of idol collapse and severe emotional hurt.

After all, they have always regarded themselves as the Beacon Country and believed that they are the glorious world law enforcers.

But the truth is so cruel!

Before they knew it, their country had become so old and corrupt that it could no longer leave the blue planet!
This is something they never thought about.

The most important thing is that the Rabbit Country has been making continuous strides in the field of aerospace and is moving towards the sea of ​​stars at an unimaginable speed.

There is no harm without comparison, but with comparison, the harm is huge!
While everyone was disappointed with the Lighthouse Country, they were also extremely shocked by the speed of the Rabbit Country.

Before we knew it, the Rabbit Country had left all the other countries in the world behind!

In the blink of an eye, the Rabbit Country’s satellite probe will even fly to the back side of the moon that has never been set foot on!

Everyone felt like they were dreaming and it was unreal.

At the same time, I was extremely envious that Lina could actually go to the scene to watch this satellite probe that is destined to go down in history!
Sour!

The sour taste of this moment permeates the whole world!
