Chapter 571: Cross-dimensional Attack
As the saying goes, "I will not offend others unless they offend me." In this regard, we have always been a role model for the whole world.
Of course, if we really encounter a threat, we will fight back strongly.
After all, strength is the bottom line, and talking big is meaningless.
"What? The Rabbits announced that they are going to start research on aerospace fighters?"
The one who was most shocked by this news was undoubtedly the SAM Space Agency, which wanted to realize manned moon landing again.
Previously, they wanted to take advantage of the Fed's interest rate hike to obtain sufficient funds to support their research work.
Unfortunately, due to the repeated decline of the US dollar, such a beautiful fantasy has become a bubble.
Of course, this does not mean that SAM space agency has completely given up on re-realizing manned lunar landing.
Although the Apollo program is difficult to replicate, space launch systems are still under research.
There are no incompetent scientific researchers in Sam's space agency. As long as they can get Sam's strong support, it is only a matter of time before they return to the moon.
"No... If the rabbits really create such a powerful weapon, then let alone our desire to retake the scientific research base at the South Pole of the Moon, even landing on the moon may be restricted!"
At this moment, Williams' mood fell to the bottom.
Because, if they were capable of producing such powerful weapons, they would definitely not allow other countries to land on the moon easily.
This situation is far more serious than losing an important lunar scientific research base.
In a hurry, SAM Space Agency immediately reported the situation and held an emergency meeting to discuss the situation.
"According to the recent speed of technological development in the Rabbit, we may be able to complete the research on aerospace fighters within a few years. This will almost have a fatal impact on our return to the moon," said Williams.
If the rabbits had just taken over a better scientific research base, there would still be a lot of room for recovery.
After all, the surface area of the moon is very large, and there are many places to establish scientific research bases.
If you just land a few years later, you will only be behind at the starting line.
But if the rabbit were to be the first to create a powerful space weapon like an aerospace fighter, there would undoubtedly be a cross-dimensional gap.
Even if the rabbit does not explicitly prohibit anything, Sam will have to consider whether he dares to launch a spacecraft to the moon at will.
"Since the rabbits can research aerospace fighters, we can do it too! When everyone has aerospace fighters, no one will dare to do anything excessive to the other."
"No, this is too difficult for us! We can't even make a rocket to send people to the moon, so how can we have the ability to build an aerospace fighter?"
After hearing the researcher's words, everyone fell into silence.
Indeed, if it was the once-dominant SAM Space Agency, then researching aerospace fighters and other space weapons that are beyond reality would not be something incomprehensible.
But now, due to the decline of the US dollar and the decline of SAM's status in the world, SAM's space agency is struggling to support even a moon landing project, let alone researching aerospace fighters.
At this time, Johnson raised his hand and expressed his thoughts.
"I think we can try to have friendly communication with the Rabbit Space Agency. In fact, the Rabbit is not that hostile to us. When the liquid hydrogen fuel leaked in the Space Launch System, it was Professor Xu You who helped to come up with a solution. Although this ultimately prevented the Space Launch System from achieving manned lunar landing, it was not because there was anything wrong with Professor Xu You's solution, but because the Space Launch System had some other defects."
After hearing what Johnson said, everyone felt that there was some truth in it.
If the rabbit was really that hostile to them, it would not have communicated with them so many times and tried to help them.
Xu You did not ask for any excessive rewards, but only asked Sam to provide some outdated information.
After thinking about it, Williams felt that Johnson's proposal did make some sense.
"Okay, Commander Johnson, you will be responsible for communicating with the Rabbit Space Agency again. It would be best to have a good chat with Xu You directly. I think Xu You is likely to be the important person in charge of the aerospace fighter project."
"Okay, Chief Williams, leave this matter to me."
In order to better achieve the goal this time, Johnson obtained authority and was allowed to reveal to Xu You some secrets about the moon that were held by Sam Space Agency.
If these secrets can be traded to Sam's advantage, it will be a worthwhile trade.
…
At noon, after finishing their research work at the Institute of Aerospace, Xu You, Wu Jing, Lin Shi and others went to the cafeteria to eat together.
After these days of research, the aerospace fighter project has made initial progress.
In particular, the core energy project of micro-fusion can indeed achieve a relatively stable energy supply under the macro state.
"By the way, has there been no reply from Lunar Rover No. 3 yet?"
"Yes, I haven't received any reply yet. I'm afraid the Lunar Rover No. 3 is in danger."
Several months have passed since the No. 3 lunar rover lost contact.
After such a long time, there is still no signal coming back. It is really difficult to wait for good news.
Seeing Xu You looking a little lonely, Wu Jing said:
"We have arranged for the lunar satellite to conduct a focused investigation on the location where the Lunar Rover No. 3 lost contact. Once there is any information, we will be informed immediately."
"Well, I hope to get relevant news as soon as possible." Xu You nodded.
No matter what the real result is, Xu You still very much wants to know the specific reason.
However, Xu You had already made preparations for unexpected situations, so he specially arranged four lunar rovers at one time to carry out exploration missions on the moon.
Even without a lunar rover, most missions can still be carried out smoothly.
After finishing the meal, everyone returned to the laboratory for a short lunch break.
At this time, a staff member came over and said to Xu You:
"Professor Xu You, do you remember Commander Johnson from the Sam Aerospace Agency? He said he wanted to discuss something with you."
When it comes to Johnson, this "old friend", Xu You is naturally familiar with him.
However, the current experimental work is still very urgent, and Xu You does not want to waste too much time on Johnson.
