America, New York City, NASA Space Aviation Center.

Today, the atmosphere here is exceptionally tense, with everyone busy at their posts, faces taut but mixed with a strong sense of anticipation.

In the corridors, one can occasionally see researchers in white coats hurrying past.

Even if they encounter old friends, there's no time for greetings, passing each other like strangers, everything appearing incredibly urgent.

Lune Matthews stands with agents from the Hurricane Bureau at the command center, his eyes fixed on a large projection screen in front of him, his expression grave.

Today is a special day, an important day for the Hurricane Bureau, the Space Center, and indeed, the entire America.

Just a week ago, they successfully launched a manned spacecraft named "New Apollo 1," commencing the ninth manned spaceflight.

However, this flight is different from the previous ones.

This time, instead of docking at the Space Station, there's a more ambitious goal—manned lunar landing.

This is a new attempt more than sixty years after the last manned lunar landing, marking a tense and thrilling moment for all aerospace workers.

According to records, although the last lunar landing plan succeeded, it was forced to halt due to funding, benefits, and other circumstances, unable to continue.

This undoubtedly became a regret for many.

Now, the Apollo manned lunar landing plan has been restarted, driving countless people crazy.

It's been over four months since the discovery of Longinus' Spear.

The discovery of this spear was key to restarting the Apollo manned lunar landing plan.

In an era where the Extraordinary World frequently appears, the appearance of this spear undeniably indicates the most apparent Extraordinary Domain, reachable at arm's length.

No one can resist such temptation.

Moreover, America has been searching domestically for its own Transcendent.

But until now, aside from Beelu, no Transcendent has been found.

Instead, many Alien Species have been found, mostly contained in an underground facility in the New York City Suburb for research at any time.

Therefore, for the spear on the far side of the Moon, the higher-ups are determined to obtain it.

If containment isn't possible, at least comprehensive research files need to be established, ideally keeping it firmly in their grasp.

Against this backdrop, the Apollo manned lunar landing plan, shelved for decades, has been put back on the agenda, called "New Apollo Program."

America boasts cutting-edge technology in the aerospace field, and with successful lunar landing experience, the New Apollo Program progressed smoothly.

Besides, spurred by the recurring appearances of the Extraordinary World and pressure from Starry Company, many domestic capitals in America swiftly moved into action.

A massive influx of funds abruptly reduced the program's timeline to four months.

Actually, according to the original budget, this timeframe could have been shortened to less than three months.

But ultimately, it involves advanced human spaceflight technology, with many technical challenges needing to be overcome.

We can't repeat the scenario of landing on the Moon and only staying outside for two and a half hours before having to return to the spacecraft.

Thus, there are still many technical hurdles to overcome.

Furthermore, modifying the spacecraft demands significant manpower and resources, leading to the program's timeline being postponed by over a month to barely complete.

However, due to the vast financial flow this time, the project team is well-funded in all aspects.

Massive amounts of money were poured in, with all sorts of top-notch materials, making the program's scale unknowingly many times larger than before.

Not only has the number of aerospace team members increased to thirteen, but the spacecraft's overall functionality has been fully upgraded, no longer a mere one-day tour.

Now, New Apollo 1 can explore the Moon for over 128 hours.

Moreover, the spacecraft is equipped with a set of collapsible infrastructure.

Once deployed, a temporary shelter can be established on the Moon, forming a survival base camp supporting three people for two years.

In other words, they're not just landing on the Moon this time, but also establishing a base to secure a foothold!

This sounds a bit sci-fi, but with today's technological level, it's indeed achievable.

The reason it wasn't done earlier is that the technology wasn't mature enough.

The investment required massive funds, but the returns were minimal, not worth wasting resources.

However, once there was a compelling reason to proceed, NASA Space Aviation Center once again demonstrated their technological prowess, leaving people genuinely amazed.

But the secrecy level of this plan has risen to an all-time high.

Even akin to the Manhattan Project back then, all scientists used an entirely new unique symbol to represent some basic formulas in science.

Some even fantasized that once the plan succeeds, the formulas they created might be recorded in textbooks like those of their predecessors, immortalized through history.
