Bab 2: Reveal the Secrets of Moon
Humans have had an unwavering yearning for the moon since the dawn of the apes. Primitive times saw intellectual flourishing, fostering a sense of curiosity and awe of nature. People performed regular rituals to worship the moon as a sacred entity and source of blessings.
In the Middle Ages, the moon remained a mystery. Humanity strives to unravel the mysteries of celestial bodies suspended in the sky. These mysteries are all due to divinity - the beacon of the gods. Myths and legends adorn the moon, which is said to be the abode of the gods.
The Renaissance marks a critical point of understanding.
Galileo, a respected scientist, took a close look at the Moon through a telescope, revealing its composition - contrary to fantasy, echoing the barren landscape of Earth. The harsh reality of the Moon emerges—cratered, gray plains, devoid of energy.
This discovery has not stopped the desire of humans to go to the moon. The 20th century ushered in an unprecedented leap in science and technology. Space telescopes, satellites, rockets, and space shuttles whizzed out. Driven by factors such as political ambition, countries are competing to master the moon landing technology.
The Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969 culminated, immortalized by Armstrong's historic step—a tiny act for a man, but a giant step forward for humanity.
"However, behind this milestone lies a complex of truths," Jack continued, his words tinged with seriousness. "This vast Moon Base, shrouded in the guise of government science, hides an unspoken secret. However, now is the time to reveal that secret."
In extreme silence, a profound secret is revealed...
In the 1990s, the U.S. government held secret meetings with influential leaders from around the world. At this gathering, a twenty-year-old secret was unraveled:
In 1969, in Bailey Crater at the moon's south pole, an alien spacecraft was discovered - a discovery that changed the course of humanity forever.
After the success of Apollo 11, the United States embarks on a secret mission to investigate the alien spacecraft. The mission was carried out under high secrecy, avoiding media and public attention.
In their description, the craft was huge—an artifact fifteen kilometers in diameter, partially exposed and mostly buried under lunar soil. Transporting this massive object to Earth faced insurmountable challenges and disregarded technological limitations.
Its interior is like a honeycomb—empty and mysterious save for a lonely metal box called the "Perfect Element."
The words "Perfect Element" sparked a subtle shift in the team. This sentence appeared in their experience, mysterious and forbidden. Despite the erosion of curiosity, the concept remains elusive, cloaked in secrecy.
Undeterred, Jack delved into the truth.
"Perfect Element", miracles beyond human comprehension - the only remnants of these extraterrestrial entities. Its molecular makeup is imperceptible to humans and deviates from the familiar atomic makeup.
Superficially, it exhibits mercury-like mobility and is capable of being assimilated by living organisms.
At this international summit, the Americans made an astonishing discovery: "Our experiment revealed an astonishing fact—the panacea, perfect element. Epiphyllum, a short-lived flower, whose flowering period is extended tenfold. Rice, a short-lived annual plant, thrives for two decades!"
"Perfect Element corrects genetic aberrations, activates cells, delays aging—truly a panacea."
"A similar experiment in humans achieved consistent results, albeit with a lower success rate. However, the impact was profound, demonstrating the potential of Perfect Element in human subjects."
The revelation reverberated through global leadership. Imagine a world where Perfect Element affects human life so that existence extends into many dimensions. Chain Reaction - Transformative. However, given the technological gap, the United States cannot monopolize these discoveries. Desperation galvanized older politicians, fueling a collaborative drive to accelerate research.
Thus, a grand plan came into being. Moon Base, the nexus of exploration and revelation. Keystone - The potential for Perfect Element is magnified in this celestial setting.
"And so Moon Base was conceived," Jack told his comrades, revealing the profound truth. "Perfect Element and alien spaceships are state secrets, but the destruction of Earth has changed that. Over time, research may progress..."
He sighed, emphasizing the resilience of humanity, "Alien spaceships and Perfect Element are familiar terms. Yet as reality unfolded, they mattered more than imagined. Initially disbelieving, looking back, linking these fragments in Together."
Deputy Captain Jimmy asked, "Is the origin of Moon Base built just for this Perfect Element?"
Jack affirms: "Yes, one major reason is the lure of longevity. Political leaders and the plutocrats have invested heavily in extending life tenfold. This unique lure has driven global cooperation beyond energy and space exploration."
"Over three decades and $60 trillion in investments, this is the largest, catalytic longevity effort in history. Moon Base's fruit lies in this ambition to save humanity from the desolation of the universe."
Elaborating on the initial challenges, he elaborated, "Early construction faced shortages of air, materials, and water. Not enough resources were brought in from the earth. As expected, there was not enough manpower. No one dared to seek death, no matter what the pay. An ingenious The solution came to the fore—recruiting death row inmates. With a successful outcome, life loses its meaning."
"Ten years to conceive this prototype - evolving into a thriving settlement of 50,000 people, the pinnacle of scientific inquiry."
Jack's tone became urgent. "Today, however, we face an insurgency. Moon Base is in riots and hostages are being taken. Our number one goal: to quell this insurgency."
Jimmy said with certainty: "We will definitely win."
"Fired."
The room was silent. Efficiency-savvy Soldiers return to their posts, processing intelligence while preparing for upcoming missions.
