"It won't work, it really won't work. It's too far from Manchester to London."

Herman was panting, his figure typical of an obese white child growing up with a belly larger than his head.

He was already too tired to stand it before leaving the city of Manchester along the tracks at Central Station and King's Cross Station.

"I asked, can our adventure plan be shelved? It would be too tiring just to walk."

"Can our plan be to wait until I get my driver's license this summer and we can drive to London?"

Lawrence was slightly thin, but his physical strength was much better than Herman. He shook his head and said:

"How could we just give up?"

"How far have we come? We haven't even left the Manchester area yet."

Herman's head was covered with sweat: "The problem is that it's too hot now. Can we wait until the weather gets cooler?"

“After the fall semester is over is a good time to do it.”

Heman looked up at the sun in the sky and said.

Lawrence shook his head: "If we finish going, if there are any items left by the magician, they may be picked up by others."

"There are so many explorers recently, I can't guarantee that no one else will discover this secret."

Magic has become the prominent science of Blue Star. England's Sky TV has a special program every night to introduce magic-related knowledge.

The magic club in the university has become the most popular club, and there are many activities where students form groups to explore traces of magic.

The University of Manchester also has a magic society, and Lawrence and Herman are also members of the magic society.

Lawrence was very confident in the secret he had discovered, and he wanted to keep it a secret and not let more people know about it.

So he only brought his best friend Herman with him.

It's just that he didn't expect the other party's physical problems. He was already out of breath after only half an hour.

"Have you ever thought that if we could find traces of the existence of magical society and become a magician, you would never have to walk on your own again."

"Any space teleportation can go from Manchester to London."

After thinking about it carefully, Herman felt that this pain was nothing, and he clenched his fists full of flesh:

"Okay, I'll keep at it."

"I really can't hold on anymore. How long does it take to get from Manchester to London?"

Lawrence glanced at his watch and said helplessly: "It's only been ten minutes."

"It's about 200 miles from Manchester to London."

Herman pulled up his legs and walked back: "I may grit my teeth and follow you for 20 miles."

"Two hundred miles, I'm afraid I have to hand myself over here."

"And we only have five days of vacation. To cover two hundred miles, it will take at least a month to travel."

Lawrence nodded and said, "So what I'm thinking about is how far we can go in these five days, and then finally take the train back to Manchester."

"Maybe we found traces of magic after walking less than twenty miles."

"You need to persevere in anything you do, how can you just give up?"

Herman shook his head: "I don't think I have the perseverance to persevere, so I might as well give up early."

"Giving up is just a choice, it does not mean failure."

"You go ahead, I will wait for the good news of your triumphant return at the apartment."

No matter how much Lawrence tried to persuade him, Herman was unwilling to continue.

Because in his opinion, it was still unclear whether traces of magic could be discovered, and even if they found out, it was still unknown what benefits they would gain.

It would be better to go back to the apartment, lie on the sofa, drink iced Coke and play games.

I just bought Futureverse and haven’t played enough with it yet.

At this time, reason reoccupied Herman's brain.

Originally, Herman thought he was just out for a day of adventure.

He thought it was a good arrangement to spend one day exploring outside during the five-day vacation. Fat people also need exercise.

But if he spent all five days of his five-day vacation exploring outside in the scorching sun, he might as well explore in the virtual world.

Lawrence asked: "Are you really not going to take risks with me?"

Hearing the plea in Lawrence's tone, Herman thought for a moment and said:

"It's not that I don't want to take risks with you, but such risks are very inefficient."

"It's just a sentence from Rowling's interview that made us expend so much effort."

Lawrence defended: "But many people have followed the route from Manchester to London to look for traces of magic..."

The popularity of the route from Manchester to London during this period was second only to the prehistoric Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain in southern England.

Legend has it that the prehistoric Stonehenge was moved from Ireland to England by Merlin.

The English guessed that this was the magic circle built by Merlin.

Herman interrupted: "Yes, it is possible that there are traces of magic."

"I also admire your preparations this time, including the fact that I have never thought about going to Central Station before."

"The evidence you presented is enough to convince me, but it's too difficult for us to find traces of magic just by walking on two legs."

"I think we need more preparations, including looking for mythical and legendary locations related to magic in history, and places where this route overlaps."

"Instead of walking the entire length of the railway line."

“After I get my driver’s license over the summer, I can bring my dad’s car over and drive down this road.”

Lawrence was a little downcast: "Okay, you go back to the apartment first, I want to go around by myself."

Three days later, Herman, who was playing the VR version of "The Witcher 3" while lying in the two-bedroom apartment they rented, heard the sound of someone opening the door.

His brain directly issued the command, and the VR screen switched to the main interface. He took off the VR, and then looked at Lawrence, whose face was full of exhaustion.

Lawrence's whole person darkened by more than one degree.

Herman thought it was a wise decision not to continue.

If you change from a white fat guy to a black fat guy, you really can't even hope to find a girlfriend in college.

Although he hasn't found it yet.

Herman comforted: "It's normal that no discovery has been made. I haven't heard of anyone in England having found anything."

Lawrence waved his finger: "Who said they didn't find it?"

Heman jumped up from the sofa: "What did you find? Show me quickly!"

Lawrence pressed his hand against him: "Who told you not to go with me?"

Heman said helplessly: "I took practical factors into consideration, and I didn't say I wouldn't go with you."

"I just won't go with you this time."

"The first thing I did after I got my driver's license was to think about driving and going on adventures with you."

"Show me quickly, what did you find?"

Guchong

Lawrence motioned for him to calm down: "Let me show you."

Lawrence took out his phone, then opened the photo and showed it to him.

Herman saw a photo of a slate and asked, "Is this a slate engraved with magic? Or is it engraved with a method of learning magic?"

Lawrence interrupted: "No, this is the prehistoric stone tablet in Hades Hall."

"I have new inspiration and I know which information to look up."

In 1981 a prehistoric cairn was discovered, investigated and excavated by the Archaeological Institute in Manchester at Hades Hall, above Rochdale.

"Our next adventure will be rewarding."

Like a punctured balloon, Herman walked towards the sofa with his head hanging down: "Okay."

Going on adventures during the summer vacation is even hotter than this season.

...

"nervous?"

"Why should I be nervous? The first unmanned experiment around the moon was successful.

We successfully landed the lunar exploration module within ten kilometers of the moon. "

"It's a pity that Amerikan took the lead. Their moon base has already been built."

"Just get used to it, haven't we always been chasing here like this?

As long as this lunar space station is successful, our next step is to manned the moon! "

"Yes, our original planned path is different from Amerikan."

During the space race, the moon landing plans of America's predecessors and Russia were very radical.

Under the current environment, China's moon landing plan is much more conservative.

Amerikan was already ahead of China in aerospace technology, and had the basis for a successful moon landing, so it only took two years to return to the moon.

This does not mean that China's progress is slow. You must know that China's plan this time is to build a lunar space station.

It can only be said that the technical routes of both parties are inconsistent.

As early as 2018, NASA, the Europa Union Space Agency, the Maple Leaf National Space Administration, and the Neon National Space Administration expressed their intention to join forces to build a lunar space station.

It was planned to be constructed in 2020 and then officially opened in 2024.

As a result, everyone knows that Amerikan has fallen out with Europa Space Agency and Neon Space Agency, so it is naturally impossible for all parties to cooperate on this project.

More than 300 million yuan was spent on the preliminary research plan, and Amerikan also took over.

This time it is equivalent to America choosing to land on the moon first to build a preliminary base on the moon, and then build a space station orbiting the moon.

What China wants to do is to build a space station around the moon first.

In case something goes wrong during the manned moon landing, the existence of the lunar space station will also be helpful for rescue.

The concept of China's lunar space station began in 2021. At the Global Space Exploration Conference in St. Petersburg, the Chinese Space Administration and the Russian Space Agency expressed their intention to build a lunar space station.

"Yes, only with a lunar space station can we support our sustainable exploration of the moon."

In recent years, countries have invested huge amounts in aerospace.

In China's original plan, the lunar space station was in the reconnaissance period from 2021 to 2025, and the construction period was from 2026 to 2035.

They advanced the construction period by ten years.

"I feel very uneasy inside. I hope it can succeed."

"An important purpose this time is to test whether our Earth-to-Moon transportation system is as reusable as we imagined."

"The relay satellite has entered the preset orbit, and the advantages of the new fuel have been fully demonstrated. I believe there will be good results."

"The astronauts will need to bring back more lunar soil when they land on the moon, so that we can develop the cement materials needed for the lunar base based on geopolymerization technology."

The Chinese space agency's idea is to use volcanic ash and a sodium hydroxide solution based on geopolymer technology as the activator.

The compressive strengths of volcanic ash geopolymer samples after being treated under vacuum conditions for 24 h and liquid nitrogen freeze-thaw cycles for 30 times were 45.53 and 44.95 MPa, respectively.

The new cement material can not only meet the needs, but its water consumption is close to zero.

"It's a pity that we still lack magic brains. The mages' ability to develop the microstructure of materials is too strong."

Based on biological storage technology, the mages of China have developed a preliminary method of reconstructing the microscopic world.

They immediately used China's cutting-edge material research and development.

Among them, the two areas that China needs most have received the greatest human support.

Aerospace is one of them, and semiconductors are another.

Except for the masters of quantum physics who were sent to study the grand unification of the universe's time system, and the masters of mathematics who were sent to study artificial intelligence, all other mages went to various points to engage in the research and development of materials.

Jiang Yan is no exception. He also needs to devote some of his energy to the research and development of cutting-edge materials.

Huaguo Seed Industry Group's current advantages are too great, and there is no single enemy in the world.

Since the emergence of Huaguo Seed Industry Group, the domestic media has been promoting the dangers of genetically modified seeds in various ways.

Relevant papers by European and American professors are widely cited.

Even if it's a paper published in a little-known journal, as long as you talk about the dangers of genetic modification, we will help you publicize it.

"We directly used the orbit selected by NASA. Didn't they come to protest?"

"Of course we protested, but the question is is protesting useful?"

Originally, Amerikan and the other three countries planned to deploy the joint lunar space station in a highly elliptical 7-day near-linear halo orbit (NRHO) around the moon.

The space station is closest at 3,000 kilometers above the Moon's North Pole and as far as 70,000 kilometers above the Moon's South Pole.

The benefit of this is that NRHO will enable lunar expeditions to reach a low polar orbit with a delta-v of 730 m/s and a half-day transit time.

The orbital station only needs to maintain a delta-v of less than 10 m/s per year, and the orbital inclination can be changed with a relatively small delta-v expenditure to gain access to most of the lunar surface.

Such a design is very conducive to the spacecraft's transportation between the moon and the space station, and it has the ability to land at a fixed point.

Another benefit of near-straight halo orbits is minimal disruption to communications with Earth.

China is equivalent to optimizing on the basis of American's plan, but it still preempted the tracks in American's plan.

"We are the first to occupy the position for him. No matter how much they protest, it is useless. Is it possible that they will knock down our space station?"

"If the plan goes well, when the lunar base is established, we can prepare to build a giant telescope on the moon."

You must know that it is impossible to receive the long-wavelength unlimited radio waves from the dark age of the universe on a blue star. The ionosphere will reflect them through electrons and ions.

But building a radio telescope on the moon can solve this problem.

Just for this reason, Hua also wanted to do this.

"You are holding on to NASA's wool!"

The lunar radio telescope is also an idea proposed by a NASA-affiliated research institute.

They envision building an ultra-long wavelength (hereby wavelength greater than 10 m, i.e. frequency below 30 MHz) radio telescope within a lunar crater.

The telescope will be the largest full-aperture radio telescope in the solar system.

"Who allowed us to have sufficient budgets in recent years? We can take advantage of this abundant budget to do more things."

"If traces of magic can really be found on the moon, or even Merlin's spaceship as rumored by the outside world, we will send it!"
