Only the first few rows of the large auditorium, which can accommodate thousands of people, were filled, and the large area of vacant seats made the entire auditorium deserted, giving it an indescribable sense of decay.
The academic students who were sitting upright said nothing. Apart from breathing, no second sound could be heard in the auditorium.
There was the sound of footsteps, and several officers, surrounded by a major general, walked onto the stage and took their seats one by one.
Then the major general was the general who was talking to Ye Han at the beginning. Ye Han in the audience couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, wondering why he was here.
The major general stood up holding on to the table and said loudly and bluntly: "I declare that the first phase of the aerospace training team training is over and all trainees have graduated!"
All the students were active servicemen from the military. When they heard the news, no one made any unnecessary noise, and all eyes were focused on the major general.
The major general's eyes swept across the students in the audience, and he lowered his voice and said: "I know that many of you are very uneasy and uneasy. In fact, I am as unsure as you are. For no other reason, I want to train an astronaut in the past.
It will take five years, but the time given to you is only half a year, and no one can be calmed down. I have also heard some rumors that they want to treat you as cannon fodder, but I must tell you that the opposite is true. Not only are you not cannon fodder, but
He is a real astronaut with trans-historical significance!"
The major general's fist hit the table hard, and his eyes were firm: "Why do you say that? All of you here are elites drawn from various fields across the country, and everyone has the ability to do their own thing. At the moment, whether at home or abroad, the fight against
The situation of the insect is not very optimistic. At this time, I call you to Beidu for six months of closed training just to cultivate a group of cannon fodder? To put it bluntly, if you are really cannon fodder, there is no need for me to sit here and face it today.
Everyone, the purpose of my coming today is to explain everything that needs to be said clearly so that everyone can understand the situation clearly."
At this point, the major general sighed and sat back on the chair: "It's a long story for a child, and I'm not too young anymore. I must be tired after standing up to finish talking, so I have to sit down first. You don't have to do that."
If you are nervous, relax.”
That being said, which of the students really dares to relax?
"The situation is very complicated. I will talk about whatever comes to my mind and try to keep it as short as possible." The major general continued, "You all must know the situation of Europa, but the real situation is much worse than the public situation. When the asteroid group was discovered at the beginning of the year
Several major observatories around the world have also discovered some unusual situations. After a period of tracking and observation, they found that many small celestial bodies with irregular motion trajectories appeared near Jupiter. We have good reason to believe that these look like small celestial bodies.
The thing is an alien spacecraft."
There was an uproar in the audience. The major general remained silent and gestured to the assistant beside him.
The lights in the auditorium were dim, and a beam of light shot out from the projector fixed on the ceiling, shining on the white curtain behind the stage.
It was a fairly clear photo. There was half a white celestial body in the lower left corner, and there were a large number of spots floating near the celestial body.
The background of the photo is a special red color. Students who have studied astronomy will know at a glance that it is the unique markings on the surface of Jupiter.
The major general waited for everyone to calm down before he lowered his hand: "Through observation, we found that alien spacecraft frequently travel to and from other moons of Jupiter. We believe that aliens are collecting celestial resources near Jupiter, and Europa is one of them.
Point!"
The general made another gesture, and the scene behind him switched to the ravaged ice fields of Europa. From the photo, you can see that there are many alien spacecraft floating near Europa.
The alien spacecraft in this photo are clearer. You can see that these spacecraft are elongated ovals and look like short-cut cigars.
"It is still unknown what aliens discovered on Europa, but we all know that there may be liquid water under the ice of Europa, and there may even be life. The aliens' target is definitely not water.
Then we have reason to believe that what they discovered is life, at least organic matter."
The audience was in an uproar again, and Ye Han's heart was beating wildly.
As an astronomy enthusiast, he is very aware of the significance of the discovery of life on Europa.
"Don't be excited. We didn't discover it. What's there to be excited about?" The major general raised his voice, "The frequent activities of aliens are not good news, my comrades. They are probably building a permanent base.
Or it may be manufacturing spaceships on a large scale, or it may be preparing for a second asteroid attack. In short, it is definitely an action that is detrimental to the earth and mankind."
"To tell you the truth, as soon as this situation was discovered, the superiors held emergency consultations with the United States, Russia and Europe and formulated a counterattack plan. The main idea was to send a spaceship to Jupiter and bomb it with nuclear bombs." The major general suddenly sighed, "But what?
, we have never even landed on Mars, how easy is it to run away before we learn how to walk? Unmanned equipment has low reliability, manned spacecraft have great technical difficulties, and direct flights to Jupiter are not operable at all, even if they never return.
A suicide attack is also impossible, so the counterattack plan is directly rejected."
"Later, several major countries came together to study for a period of time, and the final result was in-depth cooperation at the international level, integrating aerospace technology and reserve resources, and going all out to build a lunar base, making the moon an outpost for mankind to resist aliens!"
As soon as he finished speaking, it was replaced by a large photo of the moon, with the names of each area marked on the photo.
"Building a lunar base is not a small project. I am not afraid to tell you that whether it is the Yankees, the Maozi, or ourselves, we all have plans to build a lunar base, and we all have mature plans and engineering designs. The reason why we have always stayed at
On paper, the only reason is that the cost is too high. How high is it? So high that China, the United States, Russia and Europe cannot bear it even if they are tied together."
"To engage in spaceflight is to burn money, and it is to be burned in piles. Building a lunar base in peacetime is not as simple as laboring people and wasting money. The labor cost alone can bankrupt governments. But the current situation is different. The labor cost has been reduced to a minimum.
Save a lot of money. Moreover, the lunar base is of great military significance and is an important barrier for mankind to resist aliens. Once the aliens come to your doorstep, you will have no chance to invest, so no matter how high the investment is, it will still cost a lot.
We must first build a lunar base!"
Ye Han's heart was racing and her breathing was short with excitement. She wished she could rush to the stage and say something right now.
