China and Russia announced plans to build a lunar space station. Can they travel in space in the future?

On March 9th, 20021,Zhang Kejian, Director of China International Space Agency, and rogozin, General Manager of Russian National Aerospace Corporation, signed the Memorandum of Understanding on Sino-Russian Cooperation in Building an International Lunar Research Station by video. The two countries will build a lunar research station based on the principle of "* * * commerce, * * * construction and * * * enjoyment", open to all interested countries and international partners, strengthen scientific and technological exchanges and promote the peaceful use of space by mankind. It can be said that on the moon project, China and Russia formally joined forces, which conforms to the American "Al themis" plan and formally challenges the American space hegemony.

June 65438+June 654381October+March 2020, the United States signed the Artemis Plan Agreement with Italy, Australia, Canada, Japan, Luxembourg, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom, and officially launched the Artemis Return to the Moon Program. It is planned to land on the moon in 2024 and build a space station and a ground base on the moon. However, in this plan, the moon is divided at one time, and the participating countries can cooperate with the United States to obtain the ownership of the lunar mineral resources, and after the completion of the construction of the lunar base, a safety zone will be established around it, thus avoiding other countries and companies from damaging the mining work. It can be said that we have to bypass other countries to seize the territory and resources of the moon, in fact, carve up the moon.

The SLS launch vehicle that Al themis plans to land on the moon is scheduled to be launched for the first time this year.

The "Artemis Plan" can be said to be a cruel insult. By virtue of its superiority in space technology, the United States tried to race around the moon, resulting in the fact of seizing territory and resources. Other countries want a piece of the action and only join American gangs. Especially in the case that controlled nuclear fusion technology is becoming more and more possible, helium 3 resources on the moon alone can be said to be the highland of future energy. The Sino-Russian joint lunar research station project is a declaration of war submitted to the American "Al themis Project".

The establishment of the Long March 9 project and the trial operation of the 500-ton liquid oxygen kerosene rocket engine also marked the official blowing of the horn of China's March to the moon.

Since the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia's strength has steadily declined, and it has been unable to bear the huge amount of money needed to develop the moon. However, as a pioneer of human spaceflight and a veteran space power, Russia's technical background is still quite profound. Although China has made great achievements in aerospace in recent years, its technology and experience accumulation are still quite lacking. The two countries implementing the lunar program can be said to have complementary advantages, which can greatly accelerate the progress of their lunar development plans and challenge American hegemony.

It is said that the American drama Space Force is a documentary.

Moreover, the joint efforts of China and Russia to promote the moon international scientific research station program have also given other countries in the world one more choice, especially France, the core of ESA. France and Germany did not participate in the Artemis plan of the United States. Connecting Europe will almost turn the Artemis plan into a five-eye alliance and its vassal self-improvement plan.

As for space tourism, that's two different things. At present, even if economic factors are excluded, few people can undertake the skills and physical requirements required by standard astronauts. Russia used Soyuz spacecraft to send several rich people to travel in space to make money, but it also conducted professional training for more than half a year. When the rocket is launched and the spacecraft returns, it will bear a huge overload. However, when the human body is in a weightless environment for a long time, the vestibular balance system of the brain will be destroyed, and bone density and muscle density will also be lost. Only through strict and systematic training can the body reach the ideal value, and the harm caused by "space disease" can be reduced.

New Sheppard rocket with blue origin

Therefore, the space travel planned now is more about the adjacent space. For example, Bezos' Blue Origin Company is approaching the threshold. Harmony "New Shepard" can reuse rockets, and plans to fly to the "Carmen Line" 0/00 km from the ground and then return. 1 1 minute journey, let passengers experience the feeling of weightlessness in space for 4 minutes.
