On the afternoon of May 3, 2024, the Chang'e-6 probe of China's manned space program will be launched from the Wenchang launch site in Hainan.
In another six years, by 2030, China will achieve a manned landing on the moon. By 2035, China will establish a lunar research station on the moon. From the moon landing to human survival, can you imagine what China's moon base will look like in the future?
1. Solar power station
After China's manned landing on the moon, it needs to build a solar power station to provide reliable power support for subsequent construction and scientific research.
There is no doubt that since there is no air on the surface of the Moon, the efficiency of solar energy use on the Moon will be much higher than that of the Earth. By building a solar power station on the surface of the moon, it will be possible to obtain sufficient electricity. And it's a task that needs to be done early on.
2. Establish an oxygen production base
If humans want to survive on the surface of the moon for a long time, they must solve the problem of oxygen, and the Chang'e-5 spacecraft launched by the mainland has found that there are a lot of water resources on the surface of the moon. When the solar power plant is built, the oxygen problem needed for human survival can be completely solved by electrolysis of water.
3. Establish a scientific research and production base
With electricity and oxygen, scientists can survive for a long time and can begin large-scale scientific research on the survival of human beauty on the moon.
At the same time, researchers carried out experiments to modify and verify the living conditions of the moon. Survey and evaluation of the Moon's exploitable resources. This includes the cultivation and production of crops on the lunar surface.
Fourth, the establishment of agricultural production bases
When researchers reach the application conditions for crop cultivation and production on the lunar surface, we will establish a crop cultivation and production base on the lunar surface.
When a large number of crops are produced, humans will really have a foothold on the moon, and they will no longer have to travel back and forth to the earth to transport supplies.
5. Development and utilization of lunar resources
When humans gain a foothold on the moon, they can gradually establish lunar resource extraction and refining plants.
The Moon is rich in rare metals, which can be refined for scientific research on the Moon and transported back to Earth.
6. Establish a small city on the moon
As we grow in size, we will build a small city on the moon with a sizable scale. It will also involve all walks of life in the clothing, food, housing and transportation of human survival.
At this point, humans will achieve long-term settlement on the moon. However, settling on the moon is not something that ordinary people can do.
In addition to astronauts and scientific researchers, the personnel who can land on the moon in the early stage will include a large number of engineers and technicians.
In the later stage, talents from all walks of life will be selected to land on the moon to complete the stage tasks according to the needs of the target task.
And when small cities can be built on the moon, it is estimated that ordinary people will also land on the moon.
At that time, the moon will also develop into a tourist planet, and ordinary people can land on the moon in spacecraft without special training. Therefore, foreign travel will not be uncommon in the future, and many people's tourist destination will be the moon.
In the future, meeting and saying hello "Have you been to the moon?" will become a regular greeting between people.
