Chapter 62 – “New Moon Agreement”

When it comes to the “Antarctic Agreement”, everyone can’t help but think of what happened in Antarctica. Back then, European countries divided the Antarctic and almost completed the division of Antarctica.

However, as soon as the world’s strongest Soviet Union and the United States arrived, they declared the division of Europe invalid, and then regardless of their opposition, they directly established scientific research stations in Antarctica, occupying part of the Antarctic territory.

In Antarctica, China’s control area is only more than 100 square kilometers, while the United States has tens of thousands of square kilometers! It’s hundreds of times worse!

“If the “New Moon Agreement” is set in accordance with the “Antarctic Agreement”, we can quickly establish several bases and occupy the resource-rich areas on the moon!” Du Xingyu said. “At that time, the Lunar Guanghan Palace base will be built, and our actual control area will be the largest in the world!”

“Yes, Du Xingyu is right!” Cao Liang said, “The same is true of the above. We have to find a way to occupy the resource-rich areas on the moon as much as possible before the signing of the “New Moon Agreement.”

“At the same time, it should not be too public, otherwise other countries will see it and will definitely revise the content of the “Moon Agreement.”

Du Xingyu touched his nose and said, “I have an idea.”

“Let’s talk.” Everyone looked at him.

Du Xingyu continued: “According to the current international default statement, a space for human activities for more than four people and capable of sustaining half a year on the surface of the moon can be regarded as a lunar base. Our life capsule fully meets the conditions! Just add it. With the last inflatable radiation shield, we can create multiple’moon bases’ in the shortest time.”

“As long as we do this… we can catch them by surprise! Occupy the most lunar resources!”

“Good idea!” Everyone laughed, “This trick is because they don’t know how much material we can transport to the moon. As long as we hide one hand, we can hit them by surprise!”

One month later, above the moon.

At the lunar base in the United States, six American astronauts are welcoming their new teammates. On the lunar module, four more astronauts descended.

“Welcome you!” Astronaut Eddie went up to hug them.

“Great, you are here, we can build more strongholds!” Astronaut Titus laughed.

“Now this place barely allows us to survive, and you still need to expand the living space!” Eddie pointed to the small cave behind them.

This is built after imitating the Huaxia cave dwelling base, which is much smaller than Huaxia’s, but if you feel wronged, you can survive.

“We are ordered by the Space Command to build more than three strongholds within this month. Occupy the most resource-rich area on the moon.” The Americans have been exploring the moon for decades, and the distribution of resources on the moon’s surface It’s all clear.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

In the communicator, the commander of the U.S. Space Force said: “In one month, the “New Moon Agreement” will be signed. At that time, these sites will directly belong to our great U.S.! Now, it is time for you to serve!”

“Then hurry up! We have to be careful of the Chinese and Russians next to us, especially the Chinese, they seem to have a lot of people here!” Eddie said.

“Although they have a lot of people, they are too stupid. They have been digging caves!” The commander laughed. The lunar satellite of the United States has been monitoring China’s lunar base.

In addition to digging in the cave, the Chinese astronauts also set up a very large radiation-proof greenhouse on the moon’s surface. It seems that there are people working under the shed every day, but the Americans can’t see what they are doing.

“One month later, we will promote the signing of the “Moon Agreement” at the United Nations General Assembly. At that time, as long as it is the’research site’ that we occupy, we will be surrounded by our turf. The Chinese people are willing to dig a cave, let them dig it, you It is necessary to start construction as soon as possible to seize resource points.” The commander said.

“Yes.” The U.S. astronauts started to work. Before they set off, they needed to expand their living space.

A few days later, in the landing site of the Russian lunar module, three new members were also ushered in, and they were also building their own base.

China’s Lunar Space shuttles between the Earth and the Moon once a week. In the past few times, the lunar exploration satellites of the United States and other countries were able to take a little picture.

But later, they not only covered the vicinity of the moon landing site, but even accurately measured the orbits of the satellites of various countries.

Satellites can only be photographed clearly when they are over the target area, and the actions of the Chinese astronauts are all staggered by foreign reconnaissance satellites.

There are only a few satellites on the moon now, and there is no time to launch a special military reconnaissance satellite, and it is impossible to achieve comprehensive monitoring.

“What are the Chinese people doing?” Countries are very puzzled. They want to find out, but there is the moon, and their space capabilities do not yet support them to conduct large-scale reconnaissance on the moon.

The only thing that reassures everyone is that apart from conducting geological surveys on the lunar surface every day, the Huaxia astronauts seem to have no intention of establishing bases in other places to grab territory.



“They have gone to the moon so many people, it is very difficult to survive! It must be fast to build a lunar base, this “New Moon Agreement” must be passed once! Can not give them more time!” This has become a country. The consensus of the People’s Republic of China is that as long as it is stipulated that a base can only manage one area of ​​the lunar surface, it is useless to have more people in the China Lunar Base.

The UN General Assembly was held as scheduled, and all countries sent representatives to participate in the General Assembly.

Before coming, everyone already knew that this conference was going to revise the previous “Outer Space Treaty” and formulate a new “Moon Agreement.”

At the conference venue, representatives of various countries have already attended, waiting for the start of the conference.

Standing on the stage, the Secretary-General announced: “After discussion by the member states, we have expanded the total of 21 articles of the “Lunar Agreement” adopted on December 5, 1979 to 102 articles. I will read these articles below. Agreement, each agreement will be voted on.”

“Article 1: The moon (including orbits around the moon, to and from the moon) should only be used for peaceful purposes; the use of force or the threat of force on the moon is prohibited; the installation of nuclear weapons or any mass destruction on the moon is prohibited Sex weapons.”

In this article, the previous prohibition on the construction of military bases on the moon has been deleted.

“Now vote on the first item!”

Regarding this article, all countries have no objections and passed it unanimously.

“The second…”

The content of the agreement has been discussed by representatives of several major countries before the meeting. Most of the treaties passed smoothly.

Until the treaty on the development and utilization of lunar resources.

“Article 96: The moon and its natural resources are the common property of mankind. Countries can only explore and utilize the lunar surface and below it, and must not seriously damage the lunar environment; its scope is determined by the lunar sciences that have been established or will soon be established by various countries. The test base is determined… The detailed rules are as follows…”

Finally, this article is here, which is also the most controversial article in the entire “Moon Agreement.”

Those small countries don’t want to agree to this one, because they have no ability to go to the moon and can only watch the big countries develop on the moon.

Of course, the big powers don’t care about their ideas. The lunar resource game among the space powers is about to begin!
