On November 22, 2025, at 12:45 AM, a remarkable event occurs: the launch of the first permanent lunar research station by an international coalition of space agencies, including NASA, ESA, CNSA, and others. This station, named "Luna Vision," is designed to facilitate long-term scientific research on the Moon and serves as a base for future missions to Mars. The construction of Luna Vision is a culmination of over a decade of advancements in space technology and international collaboration. The station is equipped with state-of-the-art laboratories, living quarters for astronauts, and even hydroponic gardens for sustainable food production. This landmark event is celebrated worldwide, as it symbolizes humanity's progress in exploration and the quest for knowledge beyond Earth. In the lead-up to this momentous occasion, significant historical milestones occurred over the last 1,000 years: - **1 Month Ago (October 2025)**: Final preparations for the launch take place, including the completion of astronaut training programs and the successful testing of life support systems. - **1 Year Ago (November 2024)**: A successful unmanned mission delivers essential supplies and equipment to the Moon's surface in anticipation of Luna Vision's construction. - **5 Years Ago (2020)**: Agreements between multiple countries pave the way for cooperative efforts in lunar exploration, culminating in the establishment of the International Lunar Research Coalition. - **10 Years Ago (2015)**: The Artemis program is initiated, reviving interest in lunar exploration and setting the stage for a human return to the Moon. - **50 Years Ago (1975)**: The last Apollo mission occurs, and interest in lunar exploration wanes as space attention shifts toward Mars and deeper space. - **100 Years Ago (1925)**: The idea of lunar exploration begins to emerge in scientific communities, fueled by advancements in rocketry and astronomy. - **200 Years Ago (1825)**: Early concepts of space travel are discussed among visionaries, though practical scientific frameworks are still in their infancy. - **500 Years Ago (1525)**: The Renaissance inspires a new age of exploration, with thinkers pondering humanity's place in the cosmos. - **1000 Years Ago (1025)**: Early astrological observations begin to lay groundwork for future scientific inquiry into celestial bodies. This timeline reflects humanity's enduring fascination with the Moon and the quest for knowledge, culminating in the historic launch of Luna Vision on November 22, 2025.
