A Boeing 747 from Boston landed at St. Petersburg Airport.
This is an out-of-print commercial airliner because Boeing’s headquarters and main factory are near Seattle, Washington State, which is now the North American region of New Humanity.
Eric Fan, who was under strict protection, hurriedly got off the plane and was escorted by a special car to the Arkhangelsk region of the HRE Federation.
He will board a Soyuz launch vehicle at the Plesetsk base there, head to the low-Earth orbit International Space Station, and then board a Saturn 8 to the moon.
The reason why I came all the way to the Shinra Federation to set up a rocket is that the space launch base in the area controlled by the Illuminati was basically occupied or destroyed by the new humans.
Cape Canaveral Launch Site (Kennedy Space Center) in Florida was occupied, and George Marshall Space Center in Alabama was occupied.
The Western Space Missile Test Center (Vandenberg Air Force Base) in California was destroyed, and the Houston Rocket Launch Center in Texas was destroyed.
The only remaining space base, the Wallops Flight Base in Virginia, within the Illuminati-controlled area, was destroyed.
In fact, the HRE Federation is not much better.
Lucia's Baikonur Space Launch Base and Svobodny Space Launch Base are both occupied by new humans.
Gaul's Xizhou Space Launch Center in South America was also unable to escape disaster.
After all the money was taken out, the only thing left was the Plesetsk base.
The Soyuz launch vehicle at the Plesetsk base is the only remaining complete launch vehicle besides New Humankind.
For example, the Illuminati-Blue Star branch has lost its complete industrial chain and supply chain. Even if the design information of the Falcon Heavy, Saturn V, and Saturn VIII is given to them, there is currently no way to complete the construction of the launch vehicle.

…
the other side.
On the sea south of the western section of the Taiwan Strait Cross-sea Bridge, an artificial island is under rapid construction.
This is the newly planned and constructed Strait Space Launch Center, which is also the largest space launch center to date.
It consists of 3 main island bases (each one has an area of 36 square kilometers) and 12 secondary island launch sites (one each has an area of 3.7 square kilometers).
It can launch 48 large space launch vehicles at the same time and has launch, remote control, monitoring, recovery, maintenance, supply and training functions.
It was chosen to be built next to the Strait Cross-sea Bridge, on the one hand to facilitate land transportation, and on the other hand to facilitate the transportation of large rockets.
In addition, the sea is far away from densely populated areas, which is conducive to confidentiality and safety work.
Qin Jingwei, the director of Jiuquan Space Center, was transferred to the Strait Space Launch Base as the base commander.
He is currently discussing the planning, arrangements and construction work in each area with a large group of engineers and designers.
Qin Jingwei is also very anxious. This space launch base is affiliated to the Science Committee and the War Committee.
Both Huang Mingzhe and the War Committee are now demanding that the construction work be completed as soon as possible.
Mainly because of the threat of those asteroids, the new humans feel troubled, especially since the Lizardmen have set up a base in an ultra-long orbit 937,000 kilometers away from the Blue Star. Once the opponent has a way out, they may become unscrupulous.
The new humans on the blue star have no retreat and can only confront the asteroid head-on.
Huang Mingzhe requires that the Strait Space Launch Base must be completed before the end of June this year, because he is preparing things to deal with asteroids that must be launched into outer space.
And it carries a lot of items, estimated to have a mass of tens of thousands of tons. Currently, the number of Chang 5-D launch vehicles has been expanded to 24, and the number of disposable Chang 5-E launch vehicles has also been increased to 8.
But this quantity is not enough. The Chang 5-D low-Earth orbit only has a payload of 37 tons, while the Chang 5-E low-Earth orbit can reach about 68 tons.
But compared with the transportation volume of tens of thousands of tons, it seems to be a drop in the bucket.
There is no time to design a new launch vehicle now, so we can only expand the Chang 5-D and Chang 5-E on a large scale, and use ants to move these items bit by bit to low-Earth orbit.
…
"Gong Zhang, you should pay attention to the wind-shelter design for the transportation port on the No. 3 main island. After all, typhoons often land near the Damuan Strait." Qin Jingwei pointed at the design drawing and reminded.
Zhang Haimin, chief engineer of China State Construction Engineering Corporation, patted his head and said, "I'm very sorry. I've been so busy these days. I'm almost going crazy."
Qin Jingwei was also very helpless: "I know everyone is working hard, but the quality and progress must not fall behind. We should remind each other."
"I will immediately instruct the design team to carry out wind protection simulation as soon as possible." After Zhang Haimin finished speaking, he immediately turned around and told his assistant about the matter.
April this year was extremely hot, and the sky was so blue that it turned purple. This is a side effect of the destruction of the ozone layer.
Qin Jingwei's arms exposed to the sun were slightly aching from the strong ultraviolet rays.
In last month's purification battle, the negative consequences of the gamma rays used on a large scale by the New Humanity finally began to emerge.
Some people may say that East Asia has not been attacked by gamma rays, so why are there signs of increased ultraviolet intensity in the Taiyuan Strait?
The reason is that the ozone layer is a stagnant gas layer, and as the hardest-hit areas where gamma rays are used extensively, the North American continent, Western Europe, and East Asia are all in the mid-to-high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere.
To this day, the Phoenix Satellite still uses gamma rays from time to time to support the New Human Army in various places.
Although there is a temporary truce with the Illuminati and the Shinra Federation, there are still 3.96 billion of the more than 5 billion mutated biochemical monsters of the old humans roaming in the areas controlled by the new humans.
Especially in the densely populated South Asian subcontinent, there are more than one billion biochemical monsters, just like locusts.
The extensive use of gamma rays directly decomposes the ozone in the ozone layer. As pieces of the ozone layer are destroyed, there are more and more ozone holes in the northern hemisphere.
Now in mid-April, the daytime temperature has reached as high as 41 degrees Celsius, while at night it has dropped to 12 degrees Celsius. The temperature difference between day and night has reached 29 degrees Celsius.
Fortunately, the resistance of the new humans is very strong, and the previous promotion of greenhouse agriculture and three-dimensional indoor agriculture has ensured the stability of the food supply.
However, this is not the answer. If the ozone hole becomes larger and larger, the consequences will be disastrous and the Blue Star ecology will suffer serious damage.
…
San Francisco, newly restored airport.
15 Y-20s landed at the airport one after another. A dozen of them were wearing white work clothes. The work clothes had an armband with an ∞ symbol on it, and ∞ was surrounded by a line of words:
[New Human Universe—Supreme Will—Science Committee]
They are the engineers, scientists and staff members of the Scientific Committee.
North America is currently under military control, and Wang Zhen personally received these people from the scientific committee.
The weather in California is even more extreme. San Francisco can reach 45 degrees Celsius during the day but only 8 degrees Celsius at night.
"Commander Wang, are your rockets ready?" Cai Huaqiang, director of the Institute of Atmospheric Research, asked hurriedly.
"Preparations have been completed everywhere." Wang Zhen is also worried about the extreme weather in North America.
"Then take action immediately."
In an open space near San Francisco, a dozen rocket launch vehicles launched hundreds of ozone-breeding bombs into the ozone layer 30 kilometers above sea level.
These ozone proliferation bombs can promote the oxygen molecules and oxygen atoms in the atmosphere to quickly combine into ozone, thereby achieving the effect of repairing the ozone layer.
In various control areas of the New Humanity, a large number of ozone breeding bombs were launched, and a large number of ozone layer holes were quickly repaired.
It is expected that the ozone layer can be repaired in about a month.
It is easy to destroy but difficult to repair, especially in the natural ecology. When gamma rays go out all at once, everything will die.
But it is difficult and troublesome to repair it.
This was before New Humanity had prepared for it. If ozone bombs were not prepared, the extreme weather caused by strong ultraviolet rays would be enough to severely damage the blue star's ecology.
