After getting off the bus, the old village chief regretted it a little; how could he have fallen asleep?
Wasn't the plan to run a certain distance on the lunar surface?
He seemed not to see anything.
Liu Yun comforted him, "We've been out for a long time, and it was the middle of the night, so it's normal to be sleepy!"
"I took a nap, and now I feel more refreshed."
"As for the situation on the moon, we'll have another chance to see it when we get back."
Upon hearing this, the old village chief stopped worrying and focused on the scene before him.
Liu Yun was also curious, because she had only planned the train tracks; other places hadn't been planned at that time!
Therefore, she was also unable to simulate what these places would look like after being renovated.
Once you get off the train, you're indoors, just like on a planet. You don't need to wear any equipment or even any safety measures to walk around freely.
To be honest, if it weren't for the rather bizarre journey we took to get here, people might have mistaken us for being on a planet.
Perhaps they simply designated a piece of land and used a simulated lunar scene as a selling point.
Liu Yun looked around and could only feel four words: "magnificent and resplendent".
Unlike before, when I came here, it was still a very primitive, damaged pit!
It seems the crater has been dug too large, now extending into the underground area.
Both the architecture and the interior design are based on the ancient style of the Yan Kingdom.
It really looks like Chang'e's palace!
However, many of these things are just a veneer of Chinese style, but the core is still modern high technology, and the fusion feels quite good.
The moon has changed drastically since then. Its interior is so vast that the tour guide brought a sightseeing bus, and the group rode in several buses, slowly exploring the area.
Although Liu Yun's physical strength was not a problem, she really liked this mode.
There aren't many tourist attractions on the moon, but the area is enormous, and the initially opened areas may be quite limited.
However, what kind of pit is this? And the super telescope that was built is currently being used by a research lab to observe and study the depths of the universe.
Tourists cannot get close; they can only catch a glimpse of the whole thing from a distance in a special location.
The sheer scale of it can only be summed up in two words: breathtaking.
In addition, in many areas outside the moon, robots are doing some work, which has also become tourist attractions.
Such a large-scale deployment of robots for outdoor work is currently unheard of on the planet.
Given the lunar climate and environment, the robots have no skin, no clothes, and are basically in their most primitive state.
However, it's clear that these robots are different.
Some are tall, some are short, some are wide, and some are narrow.
Some of them don't look like human figures, but rather like animals.
Mechanical dogs are the most numerous.
There are also large ones, similar in size to elephants, which look very "heavyweight" and do jobs that are all related to weight.
The old village chief watched curiously for a while and said, "I didn't expect there to be such a rich variety of species here."
The tour guide readily agreed, listing all the different kinds and how many of each kind there were.
There are also murals depicting the story of Chang'e flying to the moon, and so on. There don't seem to be many attractions, but it takes quite a bit of time to walk around.
This is like walking on the moon; I doubt anyone would complain.
Reaching the end, the old village chief suddenly became excited: "I think I can smell the earth? There's soil on the moon?"
Tour guide: "Of course it was transported from Aquamarine Star, just to plant a single tree."
“The foods we ate before were all grown using special methods; there are very few grown in soil.”
Liu Yun was shocked: "A tree? It can't be the tree I'm thinking of!"
The tour guide chuckled, drove the car forward, and after turning the corner, a vast open space appeared before them.
Then you see a huge place with only one tree standing alone in the middle. That's right, it's an osmanthus tree.
This tree is quite lush, with a thick layer of soil, and it seems to have been treated with nutrient solution or something similar. It's growing quite well for now.
The surrounding light made the osmanthus tree look very mysterious.
Liu Yun: ...The genes of the Yan people are indeed powerful.
Aqi couldn't help but come over for a look: "The Yan people really... go to so much trouble! And all they can do is grow this one tree?"
Liu Yun: "This should be an experiment. If it really works or the cost isn't too high, the moon might actually be able to be self-sufficient."
"I never imagined it would become a tourist attraction, and that it would even evoke nostalgia?"
Mythology is also part of the culture of the Yan Kingdom; it is also a sentiment.
She had always thought that the moon was only home to high technology.
Indeed, the culture of Yan Kingdom is too comprehensive.
The old village chief seemed a little excited and wanted to go over and take a look, so the tour guide led him over as well.
When there are more tourists, they will definitely only be able to look at it from a distance. If people are allowed to get close, it won't be long before the bark of the tree is worn bare.
The old village chief touched the osmanthus tree, his eyes welling up with tears of emotion.
"Is our country really that powerful?"
The tour guide replied with absolute certainty, "These are minor issues. After all, the soil was dug from the planet and transported up using space."
"It took a little time and effort, but it wasn't too difficult."
"Actually, there are many plants in the places we pass by, not only for decoration and greening, but also for checking the environment."
"Most of them are plants with very strict environmental requirements. Once the environment or ecology of this place is in trouble, these plants will remind us, make us realize it immediately, and then take the rescue equipment that is readily available..."
Liu Yun: "The country wouldn't want to cover the entire moon with soil, would it?"
"Does this mean we'll have to dig deep in many places?"
Aqi: "You're overthinking it. Don't be fooled by the fact that there's only one tree here; it contains a lot of high-tech methods."
"This costs much more than shipping things from China, but it's all about novelty."
Liu Yun suddenly realized, "In that case, it would work on other planets too! If we don't have enough soil to dig in China, we can dig elsewhere!"
Aqi: "We still need to properly transform the planet, use technology to improve the environment, and maintain the natural ecosystem... Relying on the soil of Aquamarine is not a long-term solution."
"Transforming planets!" Liu Yun fell silent. It sounded absurd. "Even the mall doesn't seem to have the mature technology for this. I'm afraid it's not something a low-level civilization can do."
Aqi: "That's true..."
If they can terraform planets, would they still colonize and fight over territory?
Even without territory issues, there will be resource issues.
On Aquamarine today, many resources are no longer keeping pace with the research into cutting-edge technologies.
We must expand outwards to continue improving our technology; otherwise, much research will have to come to a standstill.
This is why all the research labs in the research space are conducting frantic research, especially the spaceship project, which is being pursued at almost every possible cost.
Many projects have to make way for this.
There was no other way; we desperately needed external resources. Without sufficient resources, many research projects could not proceed.
