This star is going to the moon

Chapter 292 The SLS rocket's maiden flight was postponed again as expected; the fourth season of "Back to Field" premiered.

[I regret it so much! I shouldn't have come out for the May Day holiday. There was no scenery at all, it was just a sea of ​​people!]

【You're lucky; I actually got to the tourist attraction. I'm stuck in traffic on the highway!】

Haha, looks like I'm having a great time, drinking cola and eating watermelon at home, like a badger running rampant in a field!

The official lineup for the sixth season of "Go Fighting!" has been announced, and Luo Zhixiang is indeed no longer on the show.

[With all these scandals, they definitely won't dare invite him again. Luo Zhixiang had previously said he'd be a guest on one episode, but it seems he won't be able to this time either.]

Indeed, it's fortunate the production team didn't hire him; otherwise, this incident would have kept other production teams busy, and we would have seen a pixelated person or a constantly moving sponsor logo when the show aired.

[Haha, this is considered good. If it weren't handled well, with legs or half an arm showing every now and then, or even shadows appearing when there's no one there, it would be enough to film two episodes of "Approaching Science"!]

The entertainment industry is really too chaotic. Let's look at the stars and the sea instead. Since the end of April, there has really been a space race atmosphere. Both we and the US have Mars exploration missions. One is carrying two Mars rovers, and the other is carrying a Mars helicopter. In addition, there are space airports and space shuttles. The US has also confirmed its lunar lander.

Indeed, this year has been a banner year for space exploration. In July, three countries launched Mars probes, enough to form an 'Earth fleet'.

[I just don't know when our country's manned lunar landing program will be announced. Actually, everyone already knows, so why keep it so secret?]

[Perhaps it's because the Long March 10 rocket hasn't been completed yet, and there's a risk of unforeseen problems during its launch. Compared to the US, our country seems to prefer a more cautious approach.]

Indeed, the SLS lunar rocket from the US has been slated for its maiden flight for years, but it's been delayed repeatedly. Will it actually fly next month?

I think it's unlikely; there's been no movement at all, and it might be delayed further...

[Haha, what I said came true, it really was postponed!]

[I saw it too, they've pushed it from next month directly to next year!]

[Damn, I thought it would be delayed for a few weeks or months, but it's been delayed for a whole year. Is Boeing even capable of this?]

[Boeing has such a big reputation...it should be able to handle it, but maybe the requirements for the lunar rocket were too high, and besides, NASA was supposed to cut costs this time, so they probably didn't get enough funding, hence the development difficulties.]

What?! The SLS rocket has already been severely over budget. Boeing isn't some innocent country bumpkin; they're ruthless when it comes to money...

People didn't think much of it before, after all, it's normal for rockets, which are highly precise devices, to be difficult to develop.

But since the comparison with Lu Yun, the situation has changed.

We don't expect all aerospace companies and organizations to be as fast as Lu Yun, but they can't be this lagging behind, can they?
Especially since the US has set a goal to return to the moon in 2024, but the key rocket for manned lunar landing will not be able to make its maiden flight until the middle of 2021. Can it make it in time?

Even now, many people believe that Boeing may have to postpone its plans until next year.

If it is postponed to 2022, then there will only be two or three years left before the return to the moon is scheduled.

However, some people think that three years is not a problem, because the Saturn V rocket of the Apollo program was used to launch a manned lunar mission three years after its maiden flight.

During those three years, the Saturn V rocket underwent five tests before being launched for a manned lunar mission on its sixth attempt, after confirming that there were no problems.

The Artemis "return to the moon" program is now less extravagant, requiring only two tests before a third manned lunar landing.

Everyone knows that Russia's technological development requires archaeology.

Surely you Americans aren't worse off than you used to be, right?
No way, right?

As a reborn individual who returned several years later, Lu Yun is qualified to answer this question.

However, this is indeed a very complex problem.

Technology has certainly advanced in recent years. After all, the control systems of the rockets and spacecraft used in the Apollo program were probably not as advanced as those of a regular electronic watch today, let alone a smart watch.

However, with more advanced technology, the US's requirements for a lunar landing have also increased. Theoretically, it's not a problem, but a key issue is that the US is no longer the same as it used to be.

It has transformed from an extremely advanced super-industrial nation, even bearing traces of a "national system," into a greedy financial nation that feeds on the entire world.

Now, the country across the ocean has become a super-industrial nation, and its "national system" is the very foundation of its existence.

Originally, that country only had the insignificant advantage of being "the only country in the world with a complete industrial chain system."

However, when she met Lu Yun, who had been reborn and possessed a cheat-like ability, she would have a huge advantage!

So what is Lu Yun doing now?

He was sharing news about the airing of the pilot episode for the fourth season of "Back to Field".

The new season of "Back to Field" is about to air, so remember to watch! Although I, as the eldest brother, have left the Mushroom House to do something big, I'll still appear in another way. Can you guess what it is?

Well, Lu Yun does have a side job as an "actor".

Moreover, as a true master of time management, this side job did not delay the progress of his aerospace strategic projects.

Especially since the higher-ups discovered that his actions could influence the mentality of people across the ocean, they... were quite supportive.

Lu Yun has over 100 million followers on Weibo, and his followers are very active, so he received a lot of replies immediately after posting this message.

[I thought you were only going to be a guest on one episode, Yun Ge! I didn't expect there to be another surprise!]

[How did they appear? Good grief, did they just parachute into the Mushroom House on a rocket?]

[Taking a rocket would be too much of a commotion; it's more like they landed on a highway in a "Wooden Kite" (just kidding)]

[You guys really have wild ideas. The Mushroom House doesn't have a rocket landing zone, and the road isn't an airplane runway. It's impossible.]

[No, you guys are actually discussing this? Even if these things can land, there's no support system at the Mushroom House. How will they take off again? We can't exactly set up a launch site by deploying a Red Alert base vehicle, can we?]

[That's definitely impossible, so I think it's an orbital drop. Lu Yun first flew to space in the "Wooden Kite," then donned powered armor to carry out an orbital drop mission, re-entering the atmosphere alone and landing directly in the Mushroom House!]

[Damn it, the previous ideas were indeed unrealistic, but I actually think this even more outrageous idea has a chance of coming true. Now that we have the Wooden Kite, the previous powered firefighting suit was a prototype of powered armor, or rather, what was shown was all outdated, while the military already has real powered armor?]

Wow, if that's really the case, will the orbital paratroopers from sci-fi movies become a reality?

Forget about it, that's impossible. Look at how many heat-resistant tiles are on the bottom of the Wooden Kite; with that much power armor, it's practically a sphere...

As the discussion in the comments section became increasingly skewed, the pilot episode of the fourth season of "Back to Field" aired at 7:30 pm on May 1st.

"Come on, let's take a group photo!"

"Being together is the life I've always longed for!"

"This is a family photo of our family at the Mushroom House in 2019..."

With Teacher Huang's narration, the fourth season of "Back to Field" began.

He first introduced the recent situation of the animals in his home, especially the four puppies that were adopted.

Then they began to introduce the guests' situations.

"Lu Yun has left us..."
