The future "Crescent" space base will have nurseries, schools and nursing homes.

The goal is to build a space city with a vibrant population and sustainable economic development.

Lanze is familiar with the concept of "space city". This is a familiar science fiction theme that humans have imagined for hundreds of years. But in fact, real space cities do not yet exist.

Even on a Kun-class airship, the population is only ten thousand.

Even on the lunar surface, which is very close to the earth, there are three million workers stationed there, there are no nurseries or nursing homes, and there is no population metabolism of its own.

Not to mention the surfaces of rocky planets like Metal, Water, and Fire. There are humans, but there have never been babies.

The rationing system, which is highly dependent on the earth's supplies, has nothing to do with sustainable economic development.

[Tell me, what does this have to do with exploding the moon?]

After reading the details of the project and leaving this message to Zhang He, Lan Ze took the naughty child out of the bed, washed it, and took it out.

He has to teach students.

Even if there was another huge explosion, it was more important to teach students. This was related to inheritance. Besides, he owed students lessons yesterday afternoon and had no idea how to pay them back.

After class, he was busy looking for information again and got the math paper that his wife asked for.

It was midnight. Lan Ze was lying on the bed and had time to read Zhang He's explanation.

[That’s right. You don’t think that the personnel and materials of the Crescent come directly from the earth, do you? 】

[Crescent has a planned population of 400,000. Even if a part of it is reserved as an infant population, with such a large population flow, it will be launched from the earth to a space station somewhere in a short period of time. Is this realistic? 】

[Crescent will be a training and exchange platform shared by all countries. All countries are striving for participation ratios, but in the end they decided to do it within the framework of the consortium. 】

[The internal plan is to use the moon as a population transfer station.]

[At the same time, the Crescent Space Base will be constructed based on the Lunar Complex Base. 】

[Due to the existence of gravity on the moon, the construction process is in line with human habits, and the transformation progress will be very fast. But this also means that we have to launch most of the joint lunar base away from the lunar surface. 】

[This will be the largest launch in history.]

[Looking up from the earth, it probably looks like a corner of the moon has been blown off.]

Lan Ze was drowsy. Looking at Zhang He's explanation of "exploding the moon", questions kept popping up in his mind.

He especially wanted to know China's role in the Crescent. But he was too sleepy to ask questions.

The next day, he was at the company, took some time out of his spare time, adjusted the mathematics test paper, and sent it to Zhang He.

Only then did I have the mood to continue caring about Crescent.

Zhang He's later explanation was a bit long. For the sake of the children, he slowly read to the end.

at last:

[The big leaders of our country have been asking for my opinion these days, asking me if I want to manage these 400,000 people. If I go, I can bring one or two children up and live together. What do you think of this?

?]

[When the New Moon was formed, it was very close to the Earth. During the vacation, the children can find opportunities to travel to and from the Earth to meet with you and their brothers and sisters on the Earth. But in the future, it will fly farther and farther. The ultimate goal is to circle Jupiter.

By then, the Crescent will become a satellite of the red planet, and the return trip for personnel to Earth will become far and difficult. However, by then, the children will have grown up.]

[If I accept this task, as the highest officer of 400,000 people, I need to avoid suspicion. Maintaining an image of not abusing my power will not allow me to easily return to Earth. Do you understand this responsibility? 】

Lan Ze's heart was pounding.

Xiao Momo was sitting on the open space in front of his father's desk, lying on a fill-in-the-blank picture book the size of someone else's, humming a song and coloring in a mess, but he was extremely happy.

"Can you take all our children away?" Lan Ze asked nervously.

For more than two weeks in a row, Lan Ze and Zhang He have been discussing the Crescent Moon issue online. For three consecutive weekends, she has been accompanying the students and was too busy to go home.

The 400,000 people in the Crescent can probably be regarded as experiments on a new form of human society. Although the population size is only equivalent to a county in China, it is not the kind of satellite county that surrounds a big city with convenient and comfortable life.

It is a super poor county where food, clothing and clothing are a problem.

Humanity has never tried to put so many living people into the same space base.

We need to consider food and drink, employment, education and elderly care before we can form a complete space city. This is an unprecedented and huge challenge.

After most of the joint lunar base is transformed and launched off the lunar surface, it still needs to be combined with a large number of ancillary facilities to form the final "Crescent" space base city.

However, the registration of the adult population among the "400,000" has been vigorously carried out in the past few years; these people have also been screened, divided into professional roles, and have undergone space life training. Most of them currently live on the lunar surface.

.

Supplies have also been prepared in Earth orbit, just waiting for the "moon bombing" operation to be officially launched.

China itself was not deeply involved in the Crescent.

The relationship between Shenzhou and the Federation is complicated. But in the case of the Crescent, they actually only started to be deeply involved about three years ago. The total number of Shenzhou personnel who are scheduled to spend the rest of their lives on the Crescent is no more than two

Thousands of people.

Because the design of Crescent City is based on the existing lunar base of the Federation, it is not technically advanced. Countries, including China, are focused on the social experiments that will be carried out in it. China’s participation is belated.

It provides technical support for the subsequent upgrade and operation of Crescent City.

In a space environment where every ounce of material needs to be calculated carefully, Crescent also needs a strong leadership team for political and economic stability.

The governance of this impoverished county has attracted the attention of every country and major organization on the planet. All forces voted to adopt a "dictatorship" system.

A "dictatorship" government has very high requirements on the leader's personal conditions.

Leaders who are too old and lack physical strength and energy are not suitable. Leaders who are too young and lack ability and experience are even less suitable.

Both the senior executives of China and the Federation found Zhang He one after another.

Among the candidates for "county magistrate" proposed by various parties one after another, Zhang He is recognized as the most suitable.

She is not yet forty years old, and looks very young among a large group of old people. She also has management experience in a large space base. At the same time, she also has both technical ability and personal prestige, and she can understand the data and control the situation.
