Red Soviet Union

On the moon, apart from the bases at the north and south poles, there are bases at the equator.

The sun altitude angle of the equatorial base is relatively large, that is to say, the sun is shining directly from the top of the head, so that there is sufficient sunlight during the day, which can provide sufficient energy for the base. At the same time, the lunar sea area near the equator is rich in mineral resources, which provides conditions for resource development. For example, there is rich ilmenite here, which can provide conditions for oxygen production.

However, the disadvantage of the moon's equatorial base is that in addition to the daytime, there will be nights, and this night is almost 14 Earth days. When these long and extremely cold moon nights come, it is no longer possible to use solar energy for the lunar base. Power and heat sources are provided, so nuclear power generation facilities are needed to provide protection. Moreover, at this time, the exploration activities stopped.

Therefore, the first plan is the north and south poles, and the second plan is the equator.

However, when Andre heard Tranquility Sea, he immediately thought, how familiar this name is!

Americans, the location of the Apollo 11 moon landing!

Tranquility Sea, on the lunar surface coordinates are 0 degrees 41 minutes 15 seconds north latitude and 23 degrees 26 minutes 0 seconds east longitude. It is located in the southwest corner of Tranquility Plain, near Sabine Crater and Ritter Crater. The entire plain covers an area of ​​about 260,000 square thousand rice.

This wide and flat land on the lunar surface is of course the best landing base for landing on the moon! The Americans chose to land on the moon here for the first time, of course there is a reason!

Now, for the same reason, the Soviet Union chose this area as the location of the second base. There is no other reason, that is, it is flat and easy to land!

If Tranquility Sea is the second alternative base, I suggest that we make Tranquility Sea a priority. At least, we can build small bases in Tranquility Sea first, Andre said.

Nothing else, this is completely intuition. Now, Andre feels that his intuition is too scary at some point. Could it be that this is the advantage of the traverser? Although I didn't give myself any powerful system, at least I gave myself some innate intuition!

Okay, General Secretary Andrei, then we will use Tranquility Sea as the first base. Yazov said. At this time, he hadn't mentioned the advantages and disadvantages of the Tranquility Sea Base, and the General Secretary had already made a decision. In fact, Yazov also knew why.

The first American landing on the moon was here! Therefore, the Soviet Union should also go up and have a look!

General Secretary Andre, if all goes well, our launch will take place at the end of this month. There will be an energy ship, which will transport the initial equipment of the base, and land on the moon as preliminary preparations. Then, a nuclear-powered The manned moon landing spacecraft will be launched by another Energia and fly directly to the moon.” Yazov continued.

The Soviet Union made a lot of preparations for exploring the moon. Now, finally, the manned moon landing is about to begin! The progress of the space department of the Soviet Union is quite rapid. In particular, various technologies have matured. The high-thrust Energia rocket, the high-specific impulse nuclear-powered rocket engine, and the experience of flying in space for a long time, the Mir space station Running, these, all make the moon landing plan almost like a matter of convenience!

Andre nodded: We must act in accordance with scientific laws, and we cannot cause various illegal operations because of rushing the schedule. What we want is the success rate. This is also a way to promote our Soviet.

The above sentence, the bottom is busy. If Andre said that he wanted to see the moon at the end of the month, then the people below may rush to make progress. The biggest loss of the strategic rocket army back then was Helu Is it Xiaofu's order? When Khrushchev asked his feet to be on American soil, a missile was about to be launched to demonstrate to the Americans. As a result, the demonstration failed, and even the Marshal of the Strategic Rocket Army was killed.

Andre didn't want to make such a mistake.

General Secretary, the convoy of the French President is about to arrive at the Kremlin. At this moment, the captain of the guard reported to Andre.

President of France! Andre stood up and said to others: Go, let's go out to meet our guests.

The president's itinerary is arranged several months in advance, and the visit between countries is a very solemn thing! And this visit by the French president was also booked a few months ago!

France, since the time of de Gaulle, has always been a maverick, perhaps because during World War II, de Gaulle was upset that the Americans did not support him, so France has always been a shit stick in the Western world.

Of course, the Soviet Union applauded France's behavior. In the Western world, it is unique and hinders the West. Of course, it is helping the Soviet Union!

At the same time, France is now welcomed by the Soviet Union with raised hands! After several failures, the leftist François Mitterrand successfully ran for the French presidency!

Mitterrand is also well-known in French politics. When he just graduated, he participated in World War II. He was captured by the Germans and escaped by luck. He later became chairman of the unified National Movement of Prisoners and Fugitives. Under his leadership, the resistance organization gradually grew and became a conspicuous force in the French domestic resistance organization, making important contributions to the liberation of France.

After World War II, Mitterrand gradually became a representative of the French left wing. His greatest achievement was that in 1971, at the first congress after the merger of the French Socialist Party and the gc Party, his speech made the government Everyone, Mitterrand was elected as the first secretary of the Socialist Party without receiving the Socialist Party card!

Afterwards, Mitterrand started his own campaign for the presidency. After several setbacks, he finally won the Elysee Palace in 1981.

At this time, Mitterrand was faced with a mess, the economy was full of difficulties, the unemployment rate and inflation rate remained high, and the international situation was turbulent.

As a left-wing leader, Mitterrand’s approach is exactly the opposite of Mrs. Thatcher’s. He advocated a gradual structure of the French economy through a certain degree of nationalization, planning, and autonomous management without eliminating private ownership. Reform to establish a French-style socialism of democracy and freedom.

As a result, the stride was too big, and the egg was pulled.

Even the Soviet Union is gradually reducing the planned economy, transitioning to a market economy, reducing the proportion of the state-owned economy, and striving to revive the vitality of the Soviet Union. Taking a unique path, Mitterrand actually wants to increase nationalization! Economically, Mitterrand's reforms have not been effective. At the same time, politically, Mitterrand is also in a dilemma.
