Lin Yi and Xiao Zihan enjoyed a few days of peaceful family time with their daughter before Lin Yi revealed his plan to travel to the moon base. Xiao Zihan then surprised Lin Yi by announcing that she and their daughter would accompany him, a prospect Lin Yi initially found unexpected but readily accepted.

It can be said that almost all the reserve aerospace personnel were gathered, and even so, there were still quite a few missing.

This time, it really caught everyone off guard. They had thought about migration, even mass migration, but never expected the time to come so quickly, and all at once it was a migration of 1000 people.

In the end, there was no choice but to directly transfer many excellent flying personnel from the air force.

After all, the space environment is not something an ordinary person can withstand. Astronauts require years of training; hence, the cultivation of space talent is a top priority and a very difficult task, leading to the scene before them.

Looking at the thousands of pilots standing in front of him, Ouyang Wei wore a bitter expression.

"Is this doable? Can these people handle it after going up there? Also, we need professional and proficient technical skills this time, not just the ability to fly a plane."

Glancing at the excellent pilots before him, Ouyang Lei bitterly looked at an elderly man beside him.

Hearing this, the elder couldn’t help but sigh:

"Ah, we’re left with no alternative now; besides these people, it’s virtually impossible to temporarily train spacecraft personnel; it’s almost as difficult as reaching the sky.

Space technology demands not only physical fitness but also mastery of various skills, from basic welding to advanced programming, they must know it all.

Training a qualified astronaut definitely can’t be completed in just a year or two.

Our astronauts need at least five to ten years of training to initially take shape. At present, the total number of all astronaut personnel we have is less than 100."

This is indeed the current situation. Not only here, but looking at any force worldwide, they can’t train aerospace talent on a large scale.

After all, such opportunities are rare, you might not need a few people even over several decades, spending immense effort to train them is very unwise.

Furthermore, human physical fitness has its limits and age restrictions.

A well-trained astronaut, if not deployed within a few years, becomes wasted.

Once their physical condition can’t keep up, they are only bound for elimination.

So this time, it really put them in a bind; they ended up selecting these pilots because there was no other way.

Unlike astronauts, these pilots are very precious.

Although their flying skills are solid, they’re clearly not adept with maintenance tasks.

But this time, the lunar base requires more than just flying personnel. It can be said that the pilots’ only advantage is their ability to endure the weightless environment.

Otherwise, their capabilities at the lunar base would be negligible, with no place to exert their strengths.

After all, there are no planes on the moon.

But right now there’s no choice; after gathering all space personnel, they also gathered all the reserve officers.

Finally, they barely managed to gather 200 people.

As for the remaining 800, they had no choice but to go with this solution.

"If I want to go up there, do you think it’s possible?"

Suddenly, looking at these pilots, Ouyang Lei said this, which made the elder pause, surprised as he turned to look at Ouyang Lei before helplessly shaking his head:

"I don’t think you can handle it; with your physical fitness, it’s unlikely you can withstand that environment."

Who knew, hearing this, Ouyang Lei was rather indignant:

"Someone has to lead the team this time, and I feel I’m very suitable for the task. Regarding physical fitness, I believe I’m fit; it’s hard for even five or six people to get close to me."

As if guessing what the elder wanted to say, Ouyang Lei straightforwardly gestured to stop him, interrupting his words:

"As for environmental testing, we can try it; if I can endure it, then just count me in this time."

Hearing this, the elder could only chuckle bitterly, nodding in agreement:

"Alright then, indeed this time we need someone able to command and hold the fort up there.

And you are indeed suitable, but I’m just afraid you can’t physically endure it.

Let’s do this; you’ll first try the simulated environment over there.

No need for high-intensity action tests; as long as you can adapt to living in that vacuum environment without feeling unwell, you can go up."

The reason the elder insisted on letting Ouyang Lei try the environment is, after all, this is no joke.

In the weightless state, humans find it very difficult to move.

Many experience discomfort, and in severe cases they may faint or go into shock. Such possibilities exist, and they’re absolutely forbidden from happening.

After spending so much effort sending people up, if they cannot live well up there and feel unadapted, it would be rather pointless.
