Chapter 2921

The Nagaril natives who ran towards the "miracle" hoped to get some favors from the gods from where the gods were hiding.

But in the end, they only got the gift of civilization-

Bullets to kill them!

This is the gift that civilization brings to the backward, but from another perspective, brass is indeed a not cheap gift for most backward civilizations!

The sound of gunfire on the vast Nagaril prairie spread far away with the wind, but no one would run over to see what happened here, and no one would care about the bodies thrown outside the cordon.

They seemed to have never existed, just like them.

Perhaps many years later, archaeologists will discuss this issue, why these people were killed on the ruins of civilization.

Is it because they stole important information from the ruins?

Or did they try to escape from the tyrant?

Just looking at the bones, you shouldn't be able to tell their race, and genes can't really exist forever and intact, and they also have a time limit.

The Minister of Space who issued this order did not care about the death of a group of innocent people above his head. When a scientist reaches the forefront of science and shoulders a greater mission, these things will decline a lot.

Coupled with the "elite humanism" of the upper class of the Federation, for this scientist, those Nagaril people are not human at all.

How does it feel to kill an animal? He feels the same at this moment.

Compared with the sadness of these lives lost, he has many more important things to do, such as talking to Mr. Lynch.

"...After our calculations, our lander will enter the lunar orbit after two days and seven hours, and then successfully reach the lunar surface after more than ten hours."

"...Yes, this time it is a one-way ticket. We have not sent it back for the time being, so it can only arrive with the second batch of equipment on the moon."

"Yes, we already have a plan, and the funds are sufficient...We expect to launch at least five rockets to the moon before the end of next year, and start designing return rockets and manned rockets."

"Okay, I understand...I will!"

The conversation was not long, and the minister breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone. In fact, there are still many rockets under construction or completed in the base.

These rockets are hidden in the launch silos, and they will only be revealed when they are needed.

The most advanced industrial technology in the entire federation is concentrated here. They work for the company without any conditions or requirements. Two or three hundred thousand people working at the same time have unprecedentedly improved the progress of the work.

The capitalists have a high skill book in standardized assembly line production. With sufficient funds, Lynch vigorously develops space exploration.

So the factory does not consider whether the rockets produced have practical uses at all, anyway, it is right to build them!

Let alone launching four or five rockets a year, even launching one a month is no problem!

However, Lynch also mentioned an important thing on the phone, that is, to make preparations for the subsequent development of the moon.

The first thing is to design a more reasonable and practical one-way rocket, which is to send materials from the earth to the moon without considering coming back.

It does not require too many sophisticated detection and analysis instruments, as long as the thrust is sufficient and stable navigation can be achieved, the rest is used to load materials.

They also need to get the data on the surface of the moon as soon as possible to realize the design and production of prefabricated parts for the lunar base.

Lynch hopes to establish the first human survival base on the moon within five years.

It does not need to be very large, it is enough to accommodate thousands of people.

After having such a place, it will be much easier to continue to stuff people in it and expand it.

And according to some speculations, the moon itself also has many special resources, which can greatly facilitate the entire plan.

They can mine, refine, forge and use them on the moon!

At this moment, the whole society is paying close attention to the live broadcast of the moon landing.

Many media have begun to produce programs around the moon landing on a large scale. Some programs are centered around science, such as discussing the value of the moon to human civilization.

There are also discussions about whether the moon is suitable for human habitation or whether humans need to conquer the moon.

Some are theological. After all, in many mythological stories, the sun and the moon are always two important celestial bodies that myths cannot get around.

They can not only give birth to gods, but more importantly, in mythological stories, gods also live on these two planets!

"...Doctor, do you think there are some traces of humans or other civilizations on the moon?"

The host on TV is asking the guests invited to participate in the program, an expert in astronomy and an expert in theology.

The doctor of astronomy immediately shook his head, "I have read many mythological stories and novels. In fact, ancient astrologers, tarot masters or some other mystical professionals related to star divination can be said to be the pioneers of astronomy."

"Humans have been observing the universe since the birth of self-consciousness. The sun, the moon, and other planets in the galaxy are all objects of our observation."

"People in ancient times tried to connect the changes of these stars with what was happening and what was about to happen, trying to find some connection between them."

"So these people actually came into contact with astronomy earlier than ordinary people."

"Of course, these things were often shrouded in mystery because the rulers of the ancient feudal dynasties wanted to rule the people."

"Myths and folk rumors have indeed been circulating for a long time, but this does not mean that they are true..."

Astronomy has only become popular in recent years. For astronomers who have studied it for a lifetime, it is also a very happy thing for him to be concerned about astronomy.

This not only means that his research is valuable, but also means that economic value and economic markets are beginning to be cultivated rapidly.

Not all scholars feel happy when they reach the top. There are always some people who cry secretly because they have chosen the wrong industry.

But now it's good. A large number of institutions and companies are recruiting astronomers, and even TV stations invite astronomers to their programs.

This makes him feel that his previous choice was more correct than ever, although he regretted choosing the wrong major a few years ago!

Just when he was full of energy in popularizing science, the theology expert interrupted him, "I don't agree with your point of view."

"Dinosaurs are extinct. We have not seen living dinosaurs, but this does not mean that they did not exist."

"The same goes for gods!"

"We have not seen gods, but there are a lot of records about gods and traces of their existence that are almost the same in nature all over our world."

"In fact, we have discussed this issue many times. In the case of the low level of ancient human technology, why are there similar records about gods among multiple civilizations in places on this planet that cannot be reached by walking migration?"

"This can only mean that they observed the same thing at the same time."

"Some experts believe that this kind of "observation" is actually seeing the same "sky phase", so they have roughly the same records."

"Only this explanation can solve many problems that bother us, so I think if God really exists, then it must be in the starry sky, In the universe!"

"There may be traces left by gods on the moon... Well, to put it in a more popular way, there may be traces left by other civilizations."

"We have not yet successfully landed on the moon. As a scientist, I don't agree with your arbitrary statement."

The astronomer couldn't help but feel a little scared when he heard this. "As an astronomer, I have observed the moon for many years. I can even draw a lunar terrain by hand. I have never found any traces left by other civilizations on it."

The theological expert still retorted slowly, "Maybe what you observe is just what they are willing to let you observe. Can you observe something one foot in size on the moon?"

"Can you make sure you observe every inch of land?"

"You can't guarantee it. What makes you say there are no traces left by other civilizations on it?"

"I think you are not a real scientist, you are a pseudo-scientist!"

The astronomical scientist is unable to refute this point. The astronomical telescope he has used so far cannot observe such detailed things.

This also made his face flushed a little, "I dare to swear on my scarf, there is absolutely nothing on it!"

The theological expert sneered, "I swear on my keychain, you are wrong..."

Not only did the host not stop it, but he kept adding fuel to the fire.

People are no longer so excited to watch boxers fight in the ring, but they are still very interested in watching two experts fight.

Accompanied by the booing of the audience and shouts like "hit his nose" or "kick his ass", this program that seemed to be discussing academic issues soon became a farce in the ring.

When the program director said that the heat was about right and the ratings were enough, the host began to ask the staff to pull the two apart.

The astronomer got up in a panic, picked up his glasses with one lens crushed, and put them on his nose. He wiped the blood from his nose, "I'm going to make a bet with you. There's nothing on the moon. The loser... strips naked and runs around the TV station. The whole world will watch it live!"

The audience started to make noises again. The theological expert didn't really want to agree, because he also believed that there would be no traces of other civilizations on the moon.

But after glancing at the host, he gritted his teeth and agreed, and even made the bet more terrifying -

"Naked!"

The second page of the Pioneer Daily the next day reported this news, "Two experts bet on whether there are traces of civilization on the moon. The loser runs naked around the TV station." For a while, more people began to pay attention to this matter.

On the afternoon of the third day, the lander entered the lunar orbit and began to try to land...
