Chapter 387 Standing Among Us
The various ideas about distant Earth, the United Nations, and humanity are now profoundly influencing the planet Ai, or rather, the citizens of the various countries that have joined the United Nations.
The inhabitants of that distant blue planet today have not suffered much, but there is one thing: all the countries that have joined the United Nations consider themselves to have accepted the concept that "we are the legitimate successors of the United Nations of Earth".
They are the inheritors of a great era and a great concept.
But now, what Alice is about to do seems to be the complete opposite of this.
"Comrades, we now truly see ourselves as the successors of the United Nations of the Earth, but first, we must make one thing clear."
"The society on Aixing, and the people of this land, must first stand in our history."
Having witnessed such a great society, with its ancient history and cultural works being unearthed and made known to people, such a society naturally became the aspiration of everyone—a society of immense material abundance and unlimited equality of individual rights.
But first and foremost, in today's world, they must face their own society and the era they live in, the era of this secondary civilization.
On the day the Institute of History of the National Academy of Social Sciences of the American Social Republic Union was inaugurated, Alice spoke to the historians below, word by word.
"Today, with the rapid development of science and technology, the excavation of pre-civilizations is becoming increasingly in-depth. However, in the years that followed, in the era when science was obscured, in the era when everything was lost and only pure primitiveness remained, we should not forget how we became what we are today."
While the yearning for a global United Nations will undoubtedly be a powerful spiritual boost to the restoration of the entire galaxy, many also believe that the path they themselves forge is of paramount importance.
In many countries, the transmission of history is relatively weak. Due to wars, regime changes, natural disasters, and man-made calamities, ideas and history are difficult to pass on.
Before the invention of a universal calendar across the entire continent, that history had been almost forgotten. But the people of this civilization could not stand on castles in the air.
Therefore, it is especially important to excavate, record, and restore their history.
Applause resounded throughout the building. The current Amelansi is in an era of transition from a social market economy to an automated economy. With the automated economy being hindered in some areas, especially in Britannia, a global capitalist financial center with a highly developed capitalist economy, how to carry out a revolution has always been an important issue of discussion in the newly formed republican alliance.
Alice set the tone: "Our country is in the era of transition from a capitalist economy to an automated economy. Today, social problems pose new challenges to us. On this basis, the whole country and the whole party should realize that we are now facing new challenges."
After discussions with Cardinal Allenya, Deputy Chief Minister of the People's Committee for Planned Economy of the entire Union, Alice proposed: "Our country is currently, or will be, in a transitional period for some time. The transition to an automated economy in various regions faces challenges. We should proceed with caution and refrain from overly rapid, radical, or hasty transformations."
If automation increases further, what should be done with the remaining workforce? How should they be trained? How can they be fully employed?
Some problems began to come into Alice's view, and she had to admit that they were things she hadn't expected.
However, Alice did propose many solutions, and even the initial solution was found in this way by the United Nations on Earth.
One approach is to deploy a large number of semi-automated factories and put labor into these factories, which, in layman's terms, means "pretending to work."
Second, a large number of students returned to school, extending compulsory education.
Third, we will carry out space colonization and send people to other planets as soon as possible to expand our territory.
Therefore, the current Allied Science People's Committee of the Americas bears a heavy responsibility. Putting aside the United Nations, the Allied space program itself must be vigorously developed.
After all, there are still a lot of legacies waiting to be awakened in space.
While Alice was arranging her work, in the Southern New World, under the nuclear dust, peace had not yet arrived. Throughout Glenarda, at least in this region, civil war spread like wildfire. On the ruins of the Führer's residence, militias from various factions drew their guns at each other, completely turning Glenarda into a battlefield of civil war.
Numerous armories were opened, and the surviving army, the rebellious slaves, and patriotic zealots... all hoped to change the country and walk the path they dreamed of. So, they took up arms on the nuclear ruins and pulled the trigger on the charred corpses.
Never die.
A red signal light soared into the sky, and higher up, a section of alloy structure floated in a synchronous orbit. The first batch of starport materials was transported into space by a spaceship that resembled a sheet of wood.
The "Starport Base" disposable ground-based spacecraft was docked in geosynchronous orbit, and construction of the first starport belonging to this civilization began on this foundation.
Beneath the heavy spacesuits were workers, most of them coming to this constellation of stars for the first time, floating in the airless space, using robotic arms, ropes, and jet propulsion systems to begin building a port.
Not far away, an unmanned probe is flying toward the blue moon of this planet. Records of "blue moon" and "white moon" were already made in the early days of civilization, but it was not until the scientific age, with the completion of the Hongling Observatory, that mankind was able to observe the moon hanging high in the sky in detail for the first time.
With the availability of various observation methods, the "Blue Moon," or rather its satellite, has been confirmed as a planet covered with abundant water and possessing an atmosphere.
This means that carbon-based life forms may exist on this planet, and even—a civilization may exist. With the launch of the first sublight-speed probe, all these conjectures will be confirmed.
The Friendly Space Telescope (SST) was the first probe designed for extraterrestrial space. It was equipped with various instruments, including an altimeter, barometer, and gas detector. It was launched by a Soyuz IIA Heavy rocket and was equipped with an inflatable buoyancy system to prepare for possible marine environments.
The satellite on its journey flew towards a nearby satellite. In Alice's vision, these two satellites would serve as the most solid base for the new humans to travel to other planets.
