In these ten minutes, not only them, but also the lunar satellite signals of other countries were affected, especially the United States.
NASA Chief Battelle immediately mobilized space surveillance forces to check.
“What is deep space technology doing on the moon?”
"Boss, the signal is now lost. Our electric pulse space telescope has observed a short-lived strong electromagnetic field on the moon, which is expected to subside in five minutes," a subordinate reported.
"Keep an eye on me! No matter what actions they make, report them immediately!" Battle ordered.
"yes!"
…
"There's a signal!" In the ground command center of the Deep Space Technology lunar landing mission, the liaison officer finally received the signal from the moon.
"Call the command center, call the command center!" Yu Fan, the deputy astronaut captain, said with a hint of anxiety in his voice.
The five of them were still on a scientific research mission on the moon, and suddenly the signal was lost! Even if they had received rigorous training and were determined to die, the fear was unavoidable.
This is not the no-man's land of the earth, and there is still hope of leaving alive! This is outer space, above the moon!
Thirty seconds after the signal disappeared, Yu Fan made a prompt decision and asked all team members to return to the lunar module and wait for news from the ground.
"The command center received it! Please report the current situation!" the liaison officer said quickly.
In the lunar module, the five astronauts breathed a sigh of relief. Yu Fan quickly reported: "The second team is progressing smoothly and has completed its mission! However, we have lost contact with the first team and are trying to make emergency contact. Report completed! Please
instruct!"
The liaison officer was silent. Li Changjun turned on the communicator and said: "The first team has been killed. Now we suspect that there are alien nanobugs on the moon. To ensure your safety, please return immediately!"
"Receive... received!" In the lunar module, the five people felt like they were hit hard. The captain and team members had been killed, and everyone was very sad.
Yu Fan took a deep breath and said: "Everyone, I know it is difficult for everyone to accept it, but we were prepared to sacrifice before we came! Now everyone is listening to the order and preparing to return."
"Yes!" The team members know that all the reluctance and remembrance can only be kept in their hearts now.
While the team members were preparing their return plan, Yu Fan temporarily cut off communication with the team members and contacted the command center: "Command center, captain, have they completed their mission? If not, there is a spare electromagnetic field in the lunar module.
Bomb, I can continue the mission!"
"Their mission has been completed. Your mission is to return to Earth." Meng Xiaobai said, "With the scientific research information you brought, our next moon landing will be smoother."
"Yes!" Yu Fan responded, "Report to the command center. It will take two hours to complete preparations for return. I request that a robot be sent to search for the remains of the team members. I hope to bring them back to Earth."
In the command center, everyone looked at each other and nodded silently.
"Okay!" Meng Xiaobai said, "Permit the mission. Please remember that the first mission is to return to Earth. If you encounter an accident, terminate the search mission immediately! In addition, maintain the first-level alert state and be wary of nanobug invasion!"
"Copy that!" Yu Fan immediately began to perform the task, and the small robot originally used to perform scientific research missions was sent out.
Yu Fan didn't know whether he could bring back the remains of the captains. Because the nanoworms could easily destroy this kind of robot, he could only pray in his heart that everything would go well.
The robot's operation went smoothly. Soon, the small robot found the bodies of the five people and brought them back.
Behind the moon, in the South Pole-Aitken Basin, nothing was found. The nanobugs seemed to have just disappeared!
Meng Xiaobai does not think that an electromagnetic bomb can destroy all nanobugs. Such nanobugs can also come from the moon to the earth, which shows that their abilities do not stop there!
"Report to the command center, mission completed, request to return!"
"Permission to return!"
"Yes, ignite!" In the lunar module, five astronauts guarded the bodies of their teammates and activated the ignition button with grief. They wanted to take their teammates back home.
A few hours later, the lunar module landed accurately on the offshore recovery platform.
The bodies of the heroes were buried, and because they could not be made public yet, everyone held a simple memorial service for them in the command center.
"On behalf of the China Space Administration and all astronauts who strive in the aerospace industry, I would like to pay the highest respect to the five heroes!" Li Changjun bowed his head in silence.
"On behalf of all the employees of Deep Space Technology, I would like to pay the highest respect to the five heroes!" Meng Xiaobai bowed his head in silence in front of the portrait.
Behind them, everyone observed three minutes of silence.
"In the future, we must work harder to prevent such a thing from happening again!" Meng Xiaobai said solemnly, "We must establish our stronghold on the moon. Once the Hai tribe opens the nano wormhole again, we must immediately destroy it.
destroy!"
"The next stage of the plan must be to establish a lunar base!" Li Changjun nodded. "The most troublesome thing now is that I just received news that in the virtual world, representatives of various countries have reached an agreement."
"They signed the Space Exploration and Particle Impact Experiments Suspension Act and the Ocean Activities Restriction Act and the Humanity Emergency Defense Act."
"The plan requires that we will not be able to conduct space exploration missions for the next five months until the second negotiation with the Hai tribe. After five months, it will be postponed or terminated depending on the situation."
"Then let's divide the tasks!" Meng Xiaobai thought, "The launch tasks have been stopped, but the manufacturing tasks of spacecraft and rockets must not be stopped, but must be accelerated!"
"In addition to the moon base, I suggest a simultaneous Mars mission. Not just an exploration mission, but a Mars base - no matter how the second negotiation with aliens goes, the Sea People will come to Earth in twenty-five years.
Moon bases and Mars bases will be essential parts of the space defense system!"
"I will report it to the superiors." Li Changjun nodded.
…
The meeting in the virtual world ended, and the United Nations soon announced some consensus content. The world began to take action, mainly to reduce maritime activities and relocate important industries in coastal cities.
All countries know very well that the attitude of aliens is not friendly. According to their requirements, coastal cities are in great danger. Therefore, taking advantage of this rare and precious period of peace, the top priority is to quickly relocate important industries.
In addition, many residents of coastal cities are also relocating inland. Global economic activities have been greatly affected, and some areas are still taking chances and have not relocated.
Fortunately, China has not been as affected as other countries. Although economic activities have been restricted, there are no problems with living security.
The inland area is large and has been fully developed in science and technology in recent years. Automated agriculture is enough to feed the entire population and can also be exported abroad.
For ordinary residents, every day is a day of anxiety. In order to maintain social stability, Deep Space Technology began to distribute a large number of brain-sensing helmet devices, and even Chinese residents can rent them for five to ten years with their identity information.
A large number of people poured into the virtual world, and the real world became peaceful. But the situation is not optimistic. As the deadline given by the aliens comes, new changes are about to occur.
