Chinese people are good at repairing the Earth, as well as the universe.

According to CCTV reports, Academician Wu Weiren, the chief designer of China's lunar exploration project, recently introduced at the main forum of the annual meeting of the Chinese Association for Science and Technology that in the next 15 years, China's deep space exploration will continue to steadily advance and will demonstrate and implement ten major engineering tasks in various fields such as lunar exploration. Just a few days ago, Academician Mei Hongyuan from the Center for Extraterrestrial Architecture Research at Harbin Institute of Technology also introduced aChina's lunar space station and lunar melting cave base plan.

From the introduction video, we will first build a space station in the orbit around the moon, and then use an unmanned lunar rover to scan and locate a molten cave on the lunar surface that is suitable for building a base. The drilling equipment of the lunar space station and unmanned robots will cooperate to operate,Expand the molten cave into a lunar cave suitable for building a lunar base.

Afterwards, the core module of the space station landed inside the lunar cavity, and the plant module, work module, and other main modules were successively inflated and opened underground on the moon, establishing supports, and injecting lunar soil mixture, becoming the main structure of the future lunar base; On the surface of the moon, facilities such as photovoltaic arrays, energy stations, and round-trip centers will be built, and the entire China's permanent research base on the moon will be completed.

The design of this lunar base is quite intelligent,It not only maximizes the utilization of the original terrain structure, which can greatly save costs, but also greatly improve the construction speed and safety of the base.

More importantly, the entire plan is not the dazzling PPT that foreigners often use to deceive funds, but rather a quite mature "construction plan",These are also construction techniques and plans that Chinese people have long used in years of infrastructure construction and lunar exploration projects.

For example, using a mixture of injected lunar soil is actually using local materials for building materials, and a similar operation is our "sand blowing and sea filling" in the South China Sea; There is also photovoltaic array, which is China's leading technology globally in recent years; In addition, a large number of robots work together, naturally requiring stable and fast signal transmission. China has been vigorously developing 5G or even 6G network infrastructure, which will come in handy.

It's no wonder some industry insiders claim that such a plan is not even "far ahead", but only "not advanced, can be demonstrated", which is the "basic operation" of China's infrastructure projects now. And this plan not only reflects the wisdom and innovation of the Chinese people, but also demonstrates their foresight and ambition. We are not satisfied with building infrastructure such as high-speed railways, bridges, and airports on Earth, nor are we satisfied with launching satellites, space stations, probes, and other vehicles in space,But to establish a permanent scientific research base on the moon, providing more possibilities for human exploration of the universe.

This is not to occupy or develop lunar resources, nor to compete or confront other countries, but to promote international cooperation and sharing,Make the moon the second home, classroom, and laboratory of humanity,This can enable humans to observe the solar system and deep space celestial bodies on the moon, study lunar geology and environment, test new materials and technologies, promote technological progress and social development, and achieve the common dreams and well-being of humanity.

Of course, Western countries led by the United States certainly do not think that way. They will only narrowly understand this one of the greatest explorations in human history as a confrontation between nations. However, we do not need to care about these noises or ignore these interferences. We will use our wisdom and efforts to bravely advance towards the sea of stars.
