The moon, Shackleton Crater, and "Armstrong's" permanent settlement.
Harold Winston is looking out the window.
This is an empty city with a long history, a large scale, and complete facilities that can accommodate 100,000 people to live and study here.
Many people who have wrong illusions about the stars and the sea will believe that the first step for human beings to develop into outer space must be to establish colonial cities on the moon, and then continue to develop to other planets after having a solid foundation.
Obviously, this view is wrong.
There is no air on the moon, and its gravity is only one-sixth that of the earth. The lunar soil does not contain any trace elements that can be absorbed by plant growth. If we put aside the cultural significance and the attribute of "the closest celestial body to the earth", it is completely
It's a space meteorite.
If the scientific and technological research direction is set as "capable of sustaining human life on the moon," then a large part of these research results will be discarded due to environmental mismatch when establishing a Mars colony, which is a complete waste of resources.
If you have the time to build a large lunar base, it is better to build a large near-Earth space station directly. After all, no matter what planet you colonize in the future, a space station will always be necessary.
On this issue, until the Mars colony was established, the debates between different scientific research factions about "you can't reach a thousand miles without taking small steps" and "you are cutting your feet to fit the shoes" have not stopped.
Then, "Element Zero" and "Mass Effect" were discovered.
After both parties discovered that the main point of conflict in the dispute, "limited resources," no longer existed, they angrily stopped the debate and each invested in the research of this new technology.
As more and more "Gaia planets" are connected to mass effect repeaters, this original controversy has been forgotten by most people. Due to the excavation of ruins, Mars can be transformed into a scientific research base, and the moon
Here, it is basically transferred to individuals who have feelings for the moon.
For example, Mr. Kelly Kamski, the former CEO of Model Controlled Life.
Before the "bionic man" technology spread, he decisively purchased a base on the moon to carry out bionic man business, and invited Harold to lead the research.
As if he had the foresight to put his base on the moon, he avoided the Star Alliance's wave of comprehensive ban on "privately manufactured androids".
But if it was really expected, why would they invest heavily in it even though they knew that the Star Alliance would ban private androids?
Judging from the fact that "Model Controlled Life" has become Starlink's only partner in the non-humanoid android project, it may be possible.
In addition, Mr. Kelly's daughter, Miss Illya, went to Europa Academy City 7 to study because she awakened her powers. I don't know if she is considered a kind of hostage.
Whether it is a "hostage" or "further education" depends on the positions of both parties. As long as the Star Alliance does not plan to use the model to control life, Harold, as a veteran of two dynasties, is still confident in running the company for Miss Illya.
Harold looked away from the window and looked at the research base where he was.
No matter how much praise the outside world gives Kelly Kamski, as an original collaborator, he knows very well that it is only in the eyes of outsiders.
Mr. Kelly clearly told Harold that he invested in the android project to create a wife for himself.
He also put forward special requirements for appearance and characteristics, such as silver hair, red eyes, height, weight...
If he hadn't expressed in a very sad tone and attitude at that time that human beings are too fragile and easy to die, and he hopes to have a "person" by his side who can return to his original state after something goes wrong, etc., Harold would have long ago
He walked away in a hurry - that's not what androids are for!
Based on these words, it can be inferred that Mr. Kelly should have been married once, but his wife has passed away due to an accident. In terms of appearance, it is probably what he specifically requested.
After accepting this job, Harold was mainly responsible for producing bionic humans that met the market, and at the same time hired a female researcher to be responsible for the manufacturing of Mr. Kelly's "wife".
However, what happened next was not smooth. According to metaphysics, perhaps Mr. Kelly had the destiny of "Lonely Star". The production of other types of bionic people went very smoothly, which also provided great profits for model-controlled life.
, but only the project "Mr. Kelly's Wife" has never been successful. Various problems will always occur during the manufacturing process, causing the project to fail.
The only two successful results of this project were "Sela" and "Ligellet". In the words of the female researcher, she deleted the "wife" attribute and only retained the "mother" attribute, and the results were successfully created.
Already.
This result seemed to be a big blow to Mr. Kelly. At that time, the Star Alliance announced a comprehensive ban on private manufacturing of bionic humans. After being depressed for a period of time, he transformed Miss Illya out of nowhere and handed it over to Serra.
He took care of her with Li Jie Li, and then disappeared.
Miss Illya has silver hair and red eyes, and is cute as ice. She is very similar to the sketch of his wife that Mr. Kelly brought out, which basically confirmed Harold's guess about this matter.
However, what is a little strange is that Miss Illya claims that she has been in a state of slumber, but she is quite familiar with everything about model-controlled life. She made no mistakes in the transformation operation after taking over as CEO, and she even made herself a hair very skillfully.
A white bear is used as a mount, although it is a bit outrageous to call a white bear a berserker.
According to her own words, Mr. Kelly did not disappear, but was abducted by aliens.
This statement was a complete lie of children before the "First Contact War". Even after humans joined the Galactic Alliance, it was somewhat unrealistic - plundering residents who had not yet entered the space age civilization was a felony under the Citadel Convention.
If all of Miss Illya's test results hadn't shown that she was a normal human girl, Harold would have begun to wonder if Mr. Kelly had created her using some other method.
Later, Miss Illya awakened her powers and completely dispelled this suspicion.
As we all know, it is impossible for androids to awaken supernatural powers. Their body structure determines that all their abilities come from the miniature mass effect core as the energy center, which can only be imitated and cannot be created.
Miss Illya's awakened power is the ability to control the actions of dead objects by instilling powers into them.
It sounded like controlling a marionette, and it was said that Academy City debated whether it was specifically "energy conversion" or "molecular influence", and ended up classifying it as "disruption of order."
Hmm... making dead things move is indeed a disruption of order.
