Otherworld Girl Development Guide

The US, used to dominating the world and bullying other countries, has become somewhat inept at fighting equal wars... After so long of counterinsurgency warfare, it has forgotten how to fight against opponents of equal strength.

If the old men who are used to calling for air support whenever they encounter a problem suddenly find that their own planes in the sky cannot break through the enemy's blockade, then it is worth considering how much fighting power the soldiers on the ground still have.

"...Our F-35 is no match for the Chinese Qingluan fighter jet. Their large strategic aerospace platform, with its high-altitude takeoff fighters, can suppress an airspace within a 1200-kilometer radius..."

"...In conventional combat, it would be very difficult for us to shoot down their large strategic aerospace platforms..."

"...Their new electromagnetic railgun technology is already very mature; we simply cannot intercept the hypersonic guided projectiles fired by these railguns..."

"...Therefore, our advice is: avoid using force, and trip them up in other ways."

Chapter 18 Now it's called Guanghan No. 1

On the moon, 38 kilometers away, researchers are conducting scientific investigations of the Marius Hills.

After their initial excitement faded, the research team members were left with only the heavy responsibility on their shoulders.

The nation spent a great deal of resources to send them to the moon, and they must do their utmost to bring back complete data; only in this way can they live up to the nation's expectations.

To paraphrase an academician: If the lunar base has even the slightest flaw, they will have failed the country!

After using the three-point blasting measurement method, the researchers gained a more detailed understanding of the interior of the Marius Hills, which is much more detailed than the data from lunar remote sensing satellites.

After all, currently only China has the capability to conduct on-site research on the moon!

Academician Wang sat in front of the computer, carefully examining the data on the Marius Hills. Under the processing of the White Bird supercomputer, the data was used to create a 3D model, presenting the interior in its entirety before his eyes.

After repeatedly comparing the remote sensing data, Academician Wang nodded. There were some discrepancies, but at the bottom of the Marius Hill, there was an even smaller cave that was very suitable as a site for a fusion reactor.

"This cave is perfect for building a base!"

The rabbit studying geology nearby couldn't help but sigh, as did the professor who had thought he would spend his whole life doing space geology research on Earth.

He personally felt that the country had become stronger! Otherwise, without technical support, such a comprehensive study could only be simulated on a computer... but the data was incomplete, and the simulations were just fake.

Just like engineering projects, relying solely on remote sensing data without conducting on-site investigations... results in shoddy work.

"This 'cavitation' at the bottom of the cave... is truly a masterpiece of nature; the thick rock layers serve as a natural protective barrier."

After a fusion reactor is built at the bottom, the heat emitted by the reactor can be channeled throughout the cave, raising its temperature to a level where humans can survive.

As for how to direct the heat upwards, rabbits have a hundred ways.

"However, the Marius Hills is a foreign name. From now on, it should be called Moon Palace No. 1, our rabbit's moon palace!"

The data was transmitted to Tiangong via the power radio of the white bird after being encrypted.

During the first week of the Guanghan scientific expedition, researchers traveled to the perimeter of Guanghan-1 every day in lunar rovers to conduct surface surveys and carefully examine the surrounding geology.

The research team members seized every opportunity to collect data and organize it.

As the data from the field investigation became more detailed, the 3D model of Guanghan-1 also became more comprehensive.

Time flies, and the research team members have unknowingly spent a week on the moon.

This alone is enough to qualify for a Guinness World Record!

The driver maneuvered the lunar rover to the edge of the Guanghan-1 crater, whereupon both lunar rovers came to a stop.

The research team members jumped off the vehicle and immediately took four boxes from the lunar probe's shelf.

Upon opening the box, four DJI Space Edition drones were revealed in a folded state, each costing as much as 400 million RMB!

The four special DJI drones are somewhat different from the drones on Earth, resembling pesticide sprayers, except that Earth's pesticide drones wouldn't work in such a "hellish" environment.

The entire machine, from its outer shell to its interior, is designed to operate in a vacuum environment. Of course, high-precision photoelectric probes and small phased array radars are also essential.

Each drone is painted with a rabbit holding a hemp seed, and its code name is Yutu No. 1-4.

After deploying the drone and confirming that it was in normal working order, the researcher spoke into the microphone in the helmet: "This is Luna 1, calling Whitebird... Over."

"Shiratori received, Luna 1, please speak... Over."

"Yutu is ready and can depart... Over."

"Understood, system is online..."

Inside the cabin of the White Bird drone, four crew members, all of whom had undergone professional drone control training, pressed their fingers on the controllers to confirm a normal wireless connection before taking off with the YuTu drone.

The expedition team consisted of 12 people. Apart from Academician Wang, who was quite old, and a geology professor who stayed behind, only 10 members were on-site to conduct research. Therefore, the task of piloting the drone was handed over to the crew members.

*Pfft pfft pfft...* Although no sound could be heard, the research team members standing next to Yutu still experienced auditory hallucinations.

The Yutu UAV has been modified with a working gas nozzle where the rotor should be, since there is no air on the moon and thrust can only be provided by a working gas.

The space that was originally meant for pesticides has been converted into a working gas storage tank, which can provide drones with two hours of lunar surface activity time.

The thrust generated by the working gas propelled the drone into the air, and then, under the control of the researchers, it flew towards the entrance of Guanghan-1 and slowly flew inside.

After entering the cave, the four drones dispersed and began to circle the cave wall to scan the interior of Guanghan-1.

After the lunar rover entered the Guanghan-1 space station, a member of the research team pulled out a relay communication device from the rover. The tail of the signal repeater was connected to the lunar rover via an integrated fiber optic cable/steel wire (the steel wire was used to support the weight and protect the fiber optic cable from breaking).

After connecting the safety rope to the lunar rover, they walked step by step toward the cave entrance.

The Guanghan No. 1 cave is very deep. The location of the cave entrance is not too difficult, but the signal of the White Bird UAV control system may not be able to penetrate the thick rock layer deep inside the cave, so a signal repeater is needed.

Each Yutu drone is very expensive to manufacture, and its internal data is priceless. Relying solely on AI is not very reliable, and Yutu never puts all its eggs in one basket.

When AI is unable to handle a situation, human intervention is required.

The team members slowly walked to the edge of the Guanghan-1 cave entrance, looked down at the cave, and the researchers couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. The bottomless cave seemed like a giant abyss's maw, ready to swallow everything.

However, it is still possible to see by sight that the four sprites are spiraling downwards around the cave wall, and the Yutu drone will send the data back through its onboard scanning equipment.

The research team threw the repeater into the cave entrance, and then the winch on the lunar rover released the cable. Under the moon's own gravity, the communication relay device fell deeper into the cave...

The repeater line is 2km long, which is enough for drones to explore to the bottom of the cave.

Inside the control room of the White Bird, Academician Wang looked at the data constantly being fed back and couldn't help but smile.

"Teacher, if we finish our scientific expedition and go back, it should be just in time for the New Year, right?"

"Yes, I'll be going back just in time for the Chinese New Year, and I think this data is the best gift."

Chapter 19 Lunar Cannon

The sun rose as usual.

Big news has broken on Earth: India, the world's largest democratic country, is set to jointly develop the moon with the beacon of democracy.

Immediately, the BBC, CNN, and all sorts of media outlets, both familiar and unfamiliar, began to tout their collaboration, claiming it was for "the future of humanity."

India felt like the whole world was watching them. To win votes, the old man declared on the spot that he would start an "upgrade ceremony" and that as long as you work hard, everyone can go to space, even if you are a dog!

The lunar development plan has been widely publicized online, through various news social media platforms, and short video platforms.

For the future of humanity!

Where do our taxes go? Our taxes are in the future!

Make the beacon of democracy great again!

......

Countries that have gained control of media discourse have begun irresponsible propaganda, and some capitalists seem to have also sensed the dangers of this.

"Today, if you spend $100, you can contribute $10 to the Moon Project..."

"As long as you spend a lot, we'll go to your space!"

"Space Funeral, a Journey to Eternity!"

......

Various products have started to be associated with the moon, such as limited-edition moon-themed sneakers and bags...

Zero-dollar purchases also use the gimmick of "for the future of mankind" when selecting goods... Even the American Iaido's random selection of lucky people to meet God is also for the future of mankind.

Demons and monsters, each displaying their unique abilities... In this abnormal world, the only normal person seems out of place.

On the other side of the ocean, at the CNSC headquarters.

The high-powered Shiratori radio continuously transmitted data back from "Guanghan-1".

Compared to Shiratori, the photonic chip supercomputer at CNSC headquarters processed this data and created the most detailed 3D model.

Especially when they saw that there was a small cave at the bottom of the cave, they couldn't help but exclaim, "A place chosen by heaven."

The cave at the bottom is large enough to fit 3-4 fusion reactors, providing enough energy to power the entire Guanghan No. 1 base.

The drinking water problem can be solved by synthesis, using H20O, for example.

According to the complete data, the rabbit only needs to seal the entrance of the burrow and build a vertical well in the very center of the burrow to turn Guanghan-1 into a sealed space.

Then, by reinforcing the cave and establishing multiple sealed zones near the entrance and inside the base, a lunar base large enough to house 10 people permanently can be obtained.

However, this is a lot of work, and the "lunar instance" can only be opened when the Tiangong space station is more than 50% complete.

Sending supplies from Earth to the Moon, 38 kilometers away, is a huge test of logistics and transportation capabilities. We can only begin to realize the Earth-Moon transportation hub once the cargo spaceport of the Tiangong space station is built and put into use.

The Tiangong space station's unmanned cargo port can operate in full automation. Unmanned cargo ships can also transport goods to the moon on their own and then fly back on their own. Since they do not carry passengers, they do not need to consider the limits of human beings and can theoretically make a round trip every 10 days.

With the tireless work of the drone 007, Guanghan-1 may indeed be realized "in my lifetime".

However, the first step is to establish a logistics receiving system on the surface of Guanghan-1.

The beginning is always the hardest, and this logistics receiving system requires the electromagnetic catapult device of Tiangong-1.

The long electromagnetic rail is like a mass accelerator in space, continuously launching supplies to the moon until a logistics system between the Earth and the moon is established.

In Rabbit's design, this logistics system is somewhat similar to an airport control tower, but instead of people, there is a huge disc where logistics drones dock and unload their cargo.

These goods will be transported to the places where they are most needed through the internal logistics system.

Building a base in outer space would be a real test of China's infrastructure capabilities.

Soon, the CNSC report reached the rabbit's brain.

In a closed meeting room, the elders began to discuss "Guanghan No. 1".

The Grand Elder put down the report in his hand, looked up at the rendering of Guanghan-1 in the "PPT", and couldn't help but shake his head.

It has a strong "space real estate" vibe...
