Two weeks later, Galaxy Technologies held a press conference to announce its manned lunar landing plan, which was scheduled to launch a manned lunar spacecraft at 11:00 a.m. on November 11, 2011.
Facing the media, Chu Peng, CEO of Galaxy Technology, confidently stated that the company is full of anticipation and confidence for this manned lunar landing mission.
"For this manned lunar landing mission, we have conducted multiple simulations on supercomputers to identify and address any shortcomings, ensuring that everything is foolproof."
"We wouldn't say the success rate is 100%, but it's at least over 90%. At Galaxy Technologies, we put life first; the life of every person on the moon is priceless. It's precisely because we are absolutely certain that we dare to undertake the manned lunar landing program!"
"China will become the second country in the world, after the United States, to land a man on the moon!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, all the media reporters present were shocked.
To everyone's utter surprise, Galaxy Technologies will launch a manned lunar landing program in November this year; it was truly unexpected.
The manned lunar landing is of great significance, foreshadowing the beginning of interstellar migration.
The United States first landed on the moon on July 20, 1969. Forty-two years have passed since then, and during this time, European countries, Japan, South Korea, India and other countries still do not have the capability to achieve a manned lunar landing.
It is easy to imagine how difficult it is to send people to the moon.
Many people around the world have questioned whether the United States really achieved a manned lunar landing. After all, even in the 21st century, major European powers have failed to achieve a manned lunar landing, while the United States did so in 1969. It's unbelievable that many people think the US manned lunar landing was actually a hoax.
There is a reason for saying this.
As is well known, the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union had already reached a fever pitch in the 1960s and 70s. In 1983, the United States proposed the "Star Wars" program, claiming to establish an anti-missile system in space to attack ground targets from outer space. This fantastical plan immediately attracted the attention of the Soviet Union, but subsequent events proved that the United States' space competition against the Soviet Union was itself a "hoax" designed to cripple the Soviet economy.
If the "Star Wars" program was fake, then is it also possible that the "manned moon landing" was fake?
At this moment, Galaxy Technology Company doesn't care whether the American Apollo moon landing was fake or not, but our manned moon landing is definitely real!
Soon, Galaxy Technologies' first manned lunar landing mission caused a global sensation, attracting worldwide attention and sparking heated discussions.
Experts, scholars, and ordinary people alike are all discussing Galaxy Technologies' manned lunar landing mission.
Many people shared their opinions.
"Since the United States was able to achieve a manned lunar landing in 1969, there's no reason why Galaxy Technologies, with its even more advanced aerospace technology, can't do it! In my opinion, Galaxy Technologies' manned lunar landing plan will definitely succeed!"
"It's no exaggeration to say that Galaxy Technologies has already surpassed NASA in the US. Whether it's the number of aerospace researchers, the number of patents applied for each year, or the R&D investment, the two are no longer in the same league. For example, NASA has a total of 17,000 employees, while Galaxy Technologies has 220,000—the difference is outrageous! I have reason to believe that Galaxy Technologies' technological foundation has long surpassed that of NASA. If Galaxy Technologies cannot achieve a manned lunar landing, then probably no other country or company in the world can!"
"Galaxy Technologies' achievements over the past decade are undeniable! I am incredibly excited for the manned lunar landing mission on November 11th!!!"
"..."
Netizens from various countries are expressing their disappointment and frustration with their own countries at this time.
Galaxy Technology has become the "other people's child" that parents always talk about.
"Our country's space officials are just sitting idly by. Look at that private company, it's already preparing for a manned lunar landing. What about you? You're nothing. You won't even achieve the goal of a manned lunar landing in another hundred years!" a European netizen said angrily.
"This is what high-tech companies should be doing! All the companies in our country know how to make money, selling clothes, bags, jewelry, doing luxury goods business. I ask you, what's the point? Can this promote the progress of human society? Can this change the fate of mankind? Why don't they learn from Galaxy Technology? In the future, when others have already been able to migrate to space, we will still be stuck on Earth. What a tragedy that will be!"
"..."
A wave of public opinion is brewing in Europe.
Many people began to march and demonstrate, protesting the government's inaction.
In response, European countries quickly pledged to increase investment in the aerospace sector.
There's no way around it; the "other people's children" are just too outstanding, forcing European countries to get involved, or more accurately, the whole world to get involved!
Any country that misses out on the Age of Interstellar Exploration will inevitably fall behind other countries.
Currently, the best way to rapidly develop a country's aerospace technology is to cooperate with Galaxy Technologies and obtain technical support from them. At the very least, cultivating a good relationship with Galaxy Technologies could secure priority rights to purchase their spacecraft and other products and services in the future.
Time flies, and it's November 11, 2011.
On this day, the whole world was focused on Galaxy Technologies' manned lunar landing, with approximately 2 billion people watching the live broadcast.
Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, China.
At 11:11 a.m., as Zhao Ye read out the final countdown, the heavy rocket named "Shenzhou Starship" was ignited and launched.
