When "Arc Eagle One" safely landed on the landing runway of the space base, the test flight mission will come to a successful end.

Although the test flight mission was not announced to the public in a high-profile manner, it was not concealed. Both ESA, NASA, and P companies have maintained a focus. The satellite, which has been paying attention to it over the Matrix Technology headquarters, captured the scene of the Arc Eagle-1 aerospace transport aircraft successfully returning to the runway of the space base. Soon after, the news was announced.

Shortly afterwards, half an hour after the triumphant return of "Arc Eagle One", Matrix Technology immediately announced the latest news, officially announcing the success of the aerospace trial mission and some details, and also released a high-definition video of the transport aircraft carrying materials with the space station in outer space and the cargo compartment and docking between the space station.

For a moment, the global aerospace field caused a sensation. The Arc Eagle One aerospace transport aircraft became the new favorite of the media without any suspense. The media at home and abroad are reporting related news. Everyone is speculating on the performance of this aerospace transport aircraft. Among them, the major aerospace powers and space agencies are most concerned about the capacity of the Arc Eagle One? Why can aerospace flight be completed without the help of rocket boosters? What emerging technology is used? Why can that launch tower replace rocket boosters? What range is the transportation cost?

Countless questions are in the minds of major aerospace agencies that need to be urgently known.

Once taken in the space field, it shocked the world, including the "Gemini Plan" that caused the world an uproar. However, the plan is a plan after all, far from comparable to actual actions. The complete success of this "double trial flight" mission is of extraordinary significance. It directly makes the influence and status of the "China Matrix" in the field of global aerospace and space exploration technology soar.

In addition, the Republic's influence around the world has further increased, especially in the current hot competition in the field of space exploration, which has given people a vague phenomenon that Americans want to become the new "global boss" in this field.

The United States has felt tremendous pressure. This is another feeling of unprecedented urgency after defeating the former Soviet Union since the war. In other words, it is a fear of losing its status. Americans have always regarded the country on the other side of the Pacific as the most threatening potential competitor, and have also made efforts for it in order to ensure that their country's global status remains unshakable, but things are contrary to their wishes.

In recent years, the United States has frequently suffered huge challenges. These challenges come from various aspects and in many different fields. Its competitor has turned into another behemoth of the Soviet Union, and it is a rival ten times more difficult than the Soviet Union. The United States once competed with the Soviet Union as if it were a tough guy who was poor, but it was completely different from its current competitor. Not only was it huge in size and wealthy, but it was also frequently able to penetrate the opponent. Many times, it won huge victories on the surface, but in fact it was not a vested interest, and its opponent could tolerate ordinary people. This was an opponent that was more difficult to deal with than the Soviet Union.

Americans have a feeling that even if they strike hard, they will be as helpless as if they hit cotton.

It is not scary to have an opponent, but what is scary is that the opponent has great wisdom. The biggest difference between a "reckless man" and a "wise man" is that the "reckless man" can be hit by a little trick. The former Soviet Union was so played and torn to death by the United States, but the "wise man" is completely different. If you are not careful, you may capsize in the gutter. Faced with such a competitor, you must do your best and be careful at every step. It can be said that you are exhausted. In order to solve this dilemma, the White House has also racked its brains.

Life in this US administration is not easy. Since the establishment of the new administration, it has not improved the current situation in the United States, and the unemployment rate has not been properly resolved. In fact, this US administration has done a good job. Maintaining the unemployment rate has not deteriorated, but local people do not think so.

Since the then president came to power, his approval rating has gradually declined. Except for "Wisconsin", the approval ratings in other major states in the United States have generally been below 50. Faced with this situation, it is probably the same for anyone to come to power.

Washington, DC, capital White House, Presidential Office.

At this moment, the then President, Secretary of State and NASA chief Charles Boll were in the office.

The Secretary of State and the person in charge were standing at the desk, with the back of the wheelchair facing them. The two saw a head exposed on the chair, and the president inside the desk was facing the two.

The "Charles" wheelchair turned 180 degrees, and the president turned to his back to both, facing the two, and his eyes were fixed on Charlesbor.

"Mr. President!" Bor bowed slightly to show respect and said.

"When will the American flag be inserted on the surface of Mars? When will the American astronauts leave the first human footprint on the surface of Mars?" The president looked at him, "This is not just a scientific and technological mission, it is also a political mission."

"Based on the current progress, and" Boer said immediately.

"Don't tell me these things, I only have a result, a date!" The president interrupted Bor who was preparing for a long speech.

Charles chose to shut up tactfully. Facing the president staring at him motionlessly, he thought for a while, and then said, "14 months later!"

"14 months are too long!" said the president: "In 8 months, I want you to complete the United States on Mars within 8 months!"

When Charles heard this, he was anxious, "Mr. President, I know your urgent hope and the urgent hope of the entire United States, but this is not something that can be achieved overnight. Landing on Mars is not as simple as landing on the moon. Earth and Mars are in two different orbits. Only when the two planets are relatively closest to each other is the best landing time, but this is periodic. Even at the best landing time at our speed today, it will take half a year to complete the journey from Earth to Mars!"

The president was silent and then asked, "When is the best time to log in?"

"Five months later, Mr. President!" Boer answered truthfully.

The president suddenly frowned and looked at Bor, saying, "It seems that you mentioned that it takes half a year to land on Mars, so why is there an extra three months?"

Boer replied: "It's true, Mr. President, although we have been preparing for a long time, due to some technical problems, according to normal arrangements and the best investment cost, the Mars landing should be completed in the next cycle."

When the president heard about the technical problems, he suddenly became annoyed and scolded: "Since it is a technical problem, why are you still competing in secret with P? Don't think I don't know the ridiculous conflict between you. Who sent the Americans to Mars has a meaning? Elon Musk, you, the difference? Take a good look at your opponent! Look at the cooperation between China Matrix and the Aviation Administration. We will definitely lose in this way!"
