The rise of nanometers

The construction of Lunar Gate is very fast, and the space agency has become more and more experienced in this aspect of work as time goes by.

The Moongate consisting of 30 space capsules only took a few days for the Federal Space Agency at this time.

On the other hand, after Nick returned to North America, the Noah Society secretly held a temporary joint meeting. They chose to swallow the strong demands of the federation.

After all, the secret agreement back then originally included provisions for entry inspection of alien items. Now the Federation just wants Noah to implement the original agreement.

In addition, the Federation has not been overly oppressive. For example, when it comes to dividing the areas on the front of the moon, Ocean of Prosperia, Sea of ​​Moisture, and Sea of ​​Clouds are considered NASA's territory by default.

Of course, this is what Noah would think himself.

In fact, among these three areas, the default development areas of the Western Continent Alliance and Lucia are also among them, but the Federation deliberately did not make it clear.

When Xizhou and Lucia want to march into the moon on a large scale, they can only choose these three areas. As for whether there will be conflicts between them.

The Federation was obviously deliberately planting mines.

Unbeknownst to most people in Blue Star, the division of areas on the front of the moon, as well as the biohazard at the Outpost 2 base and the emergence of the Moon Gate were quickly finalized.

On the Blue Star Internet, netizens were just surprised as to why NASA suddenly cooperated with the Federal Space Agency to build the Moon Gate Space Station.

People who don't know what's going on think that the two families are going to bury the hatchet and work together on the moon.

But NASA knows that it is in an embarrassing situation. The so-called cooperation is just to save face. Otherwise, it would be too shameful for the North American overlord to take things from extraterrestrials back to Blue Star and need to go through the monitoring of the Federal Space Agency.

As for the Federal Space Agency, they didn’t want Noah to jump over the wall in a hurry, so they cooperated with the acting.

July 26th.

Japan District, Tanegashima Space City.

After several upgrades and renovations, the space city has expanded by about 23 times in size and has huge supporting facilities.

Although this space city undertakes part of the launch mission, it is not the core space city.

In the previously launched space tourism project, 50 tourists will board a spacecraft here and go to the Tiangong Space Station in low-Earth orbit.

After registration, physical assessment, and space training, the first batch of five tourists are now at the base of Tanegashima Space City.

Kenichi Hasegawa, who was very lucky to get a ticket, has become much stronger after more than a month of training.

The fellow tourists were Wang Ziqiang, a local college student, Zhang Yang, a network engineer, Lu Tengwen, a restaurant owner, and Brian, an heir to a business from Western Austria.

After more than a month of training, the five people have not only become physically stronger, but also become familiar with each other.

There are still about 36 hours before they get to the space station.

After completing today's quick physical examination, Brian looked outside. At this time, there was a red sun on the sea, and most of it had sunk into the sea.

The golden waves, blown by the east wind and the tidal force of the moon, became more and more turbulent.

Many seabirds were hovering in the air, and from time to time they would pounce on the sea and grab a fresh fish.

Standing in front of the window, the sea breeze blowing on his face, Brian is only twenty-seven years old and the eldest son in his family. He chose to sign up for space tourism. On the one hand, he wanted to see the space power of the Federation of Greater China; Looking for new business developments.

Hasegawa came over and asked with a smile: "Brian, do you want to have dinner together."

"OK." Brian nodded.

For Brian, who was in a foreign country, Hasegawa's talkativeness and knowledge made the two of them involuntarily become familiar with each other.

Not far away, college student Wang Ziqiang, network engineer Zhang Yang and restaurant owner Lu Tengwen, who had finished their health tests, also walked to the base restaurant talking and laughing together.

As everyone walked along the sea-encircling corridor of the base, the entire base had a unique industrial aesthetic.

There are all kinds of robots everywhere, as well as busy engineers, technicians or researchers.

No matter how many times Brian watched it, he was always in an indescribable shock.

For a young man who has grown up in the Western world, this is his first time entering the Eastern world.

"Mr. Hasegawa, after returning from space tourism, I would like to invite you to visit various places in Greater China. I wonder if you have time?"

Hearing this question, Hasegawa was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "If you are on the way, I can take you with me. In my daily work, I need to interview you in various places."

"OK, no problem, I just want to see the real situation in the Eastern world." Brian nodded.

Hasegawa has actually had a lot of contact with Brian, a Westerner who has just arrived in the Eastern world, and understands his inner confusion and struggle.

After all, under decades of happy education in the Western world, even children from elite families may not be able to break through that narrow vision.

You must know that in the Western education system, from primary school to high school, political knowledge is rarely involved.

Brian lives in an aristocratic school and has a tutor, which is not of much use. He is just better than ordinary civilians.

Especially in terms of their understanding of the Eastern world, Westerners generally feel good about themselves and have a tendency to sit in a well and look at the sky.

In fact, this situation is somewhat similar to the Central Plains dynasty’s dream of becoming a heavenly nation. When society develops to a certain stage, if it cannot innovate itself, it will easily fall into a state of complacency.

Contemporary Western civilization, after experiencing rapid development in the Age of Discovery, has rapidly entered the era of industrialization.

After the Cold War, that kind of arrogance developed to the point of bone marrow disease.

Hasegawa was once confused, that is, after the Plaza Accord, Japanese society fell into a self-contained confusion. This was not a personal confusion, but a confusion of the society.

Hasegawa, who often reads newspapers and is active on the Internet, gained a perspective beyond Japan after joining Greater China. Only then did he understand some of his previous doubts.

After a society develops to a peak, without a higher reference, it is easy to fall into stagnation and confusion.

The Academy of Social Sciences calls this situation a "period of development confusion," and a civilization that falls into a period of development confusion is also called a "sinker civilization."

The Western world in Hasegawa's eyes is now a civilization of sinkers. Not only has it fallen into complacency, it has even promoted so-called "harmless stimulants" in order to suppress the bottom class.

As for young people from elite families like Brian, their inner pride is actually higher, and the more arrogant they are, the more likely they are to experience a huge gap when faced with the impact of reality, or even be struck to the point of collapse.

Obviously at this moment, Brian has fallen into self-denial.

Just the sight of Tanegashima Space City in front of him, the illusion of being in the future, made Brian feel doubtful about life.

And when he learned that Tanegashima Space City was only the sixth space city in the Greater China Federation, he was even more shocked.

Faced with the impact of the world view in front of him, the reason why he wanted to follow Hasegawa to visit various places in Greater China was to see if other places in the Federation of Greater China were at a similar level.

Unlike Brian who was confused inside, Hasegawa was calm inside, while Wang Ziqiang and others were proud and excited.
