On the high-speed train, Fan Xiaoming put away his mobile phone and said with a smile to Su Zhe, who was sitting next to him: "Nowadays, the Internet at home and abroad is talking about things related to the moon landing. Coupled with the admissions staff sent by our school to all high schools in the country, I I feel that there is no hope for other universities to recruit undergraduate students this year.”
Su Zhe nodded, put down his mobile phone and said: "Listening to the feedback from the admissions staff, the students in this class know our school very well and want to study in our school. To be honest, this year's top students will basically choose our school. Others will choose our school." Colleges and universities really have no chance.”
"I estimate that our school's admissions rules will have to change next year, otherwise other colleges and universities will not be able to survive." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.
"Yes!" Su Zhe nodded, "In order to make other colleges and universities completely despair, we worked hard to complete the test flight of the spacecraft before the first batch of applications."
"No! No!" Fan Xiaoming waved his hands quickly and said, "We must ensure that the first test flight is successful, which is the first day of the college entrance examination."
"Yes! I want to give the students taking the college entrance examination a surprise." Su Zhe nodded with a smile.
The high-speed train arrived at Tamu Town High-speed Railway Station. Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming and the scientific researchers got off the train and changed to the subway.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Zhe and his party arrived at the Tamu Gobi Aerospace Zone.
After the group put their luggage at their residence, they went directly to the manufacturing factory of the simplified heavy photon aerospace engine.
Standing at the manufacturing factory to greet Su Zhe and his party were President Xu Zhengping, Dean of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics Dai Pingan and others.
Accompanied by these people, Su Zhe and his party began to visit the manufacturing factory of a simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine.
After a round, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming were extremely satisfied.
It is no exaggeration to say that the manufacturing factory built by the school in strict accordance with the design of Jiutian Research Center can be put into production at any time.
The visit ended at six o'clock.
After dinner, Fan Xiaoming gathered the relevant personnel of the simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine manufacturing factory into a large classroom.
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming took turns explaining to these people the composition, production and manufacturing processes of several simplified versions of heavy photon aerospace engines that will be produced soon.
The entire simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine manufacturing factory covers an area of 50,000 square meters, but the total number of production personnel is only more than 200 people.
The reason there are only so many people is because the manufacturing plants are highly automated.
The lecture lasted from 7pm to 10pm, lasting three hours.
Afterwards, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming went to the cafeteria with Principal Xu Zhengping and Dean of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics Dai Pingan.
The four of them chatted while eating supper together.
When talking about this year's undergraduate admissions, Principal Xu Zhengping said with great excitement: "You don't have to worry about this year's undergraduate admissions. Judging from the feedback from the admissions staff, the vast majority of top students are happy to choose our school. There is no other way. We will go to the moon." So tempting.”
"As far as the conditions of our school are concerned, other colleges and universities cannot compare." Dai Ping'an affirmed, "As long as students and their parents know about our school, they will basically choose our school. Of course, I am referring to those science students."
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming nodded and smiled.
While chatting, the four of them talked about the simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine and spacecraft.
Dai Pingan put down the tachyon in his hand, patted his chest and said: "According to the requirements of your research center, the spacecraft used for test flights, that is, six space shuttles of three different models, except for the engine, all other parts are ready , and more than half of it has been assembled, just waiting for the simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine."
"By the way! Academician Zhao Guoan from Northwest University of Electronic Science and Technology and the relevant departments of SS-Defense System have already responded and agreed that we can use their devices to verify and test the space shuttle." Xu Zhengping said with a smile.
"In just two or three days we can create a simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine required for the space shuttle test machine and space suit." Su Zhe said with certainty.
Fan Xiaoming added: "It will take a few more days to complete the assembly of the six space shuttles, and then they can be tested. We plan to test the flight on June 7, which is the first day of the college entrance examination."
"Okay! If the test flight is successful that day, then our school will be a complete victory. At that time, people all over the world will know that our Lingzhou University of Technology can achieve small goals." Xu Zhengping said with a smile.
Dai Pingan nodded and said with a smile: "Landing on the moon and building a permanent base on the moon are our small goals. Developing the moon is what we should do. I heard that there is a plan to develop the moon." It is to build a central city and ten satellite cities on the front side of the moon."
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming smiled and nodded.
Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "We have a plan to develop the moon, but the premise is that we can successfully achieve our small goals this time."
Su Zhe added: "Furthermore, this plan to develop the moon must pass the review of the relevant departments. Only after the relevant departments agree can we develop the moon according to this plan."
"Indeed!" Xu Zhengping nodded, "However, developing the moon and building cities on the moon is not something we can accomplish. It requires the participation of all the people."
"Not only the development of the moon, but also Mars, and even the entire solar system." Dai Ping'an lamented, "What we have to solve are some key issues, such as communications, energy, transportation, etc. As for those core projects, we can Other institutions or companies should complete it, and it is best to participate in the full name.”
…
In the next few days, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming took scientific researchers and production personnel to produce a simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine during the day, and at night they went to the space shuttle assembly factory to participate in the assembly of the space shuttle.
During this period, Zuo Dajun led the scientific research team to transport a simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine used in the space suit.
At three o'clock in the afternoon on June 6, six space shuttles of three different models were lined up in the manufacturing factory.
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming are leading a scientific research team to conduct simulation tests on these six space shuttles.
Six space shuttles, three different models, two of each model.
The three different models of space shuttles are code-named Blue Bird, White Goose, and Black Bird.
The Blue Bird space shuttle is 40 meters long, has a wingspan of 30 meters, a cabin width of seven meters, a height of five meters, and a payload of two hundred tons.
The main purpose is to carry people, and the number of people it can carry is 2,000.
The White Goose space shuttle is 45 meters long, has a wingspan of 40 meters, a cabin 10 meters wide and 8 meters high, and has a payload of 350 tons.
It is a manned and cargo space shuttle.
The space shuttle Black Wither is 80 meters long, has a wingspan of 60 meters, a cabin of 20 meters wide and a height of 15 meters, with a payload of one thousand tons.
The main purpose is to carry cargo.
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming stood in front of the Heilongjiang space shuttle holding the laptops used for testing, and carefully looked at the simulation test data.
The other five space shuttles have completed simulation tests and are being pulled by tractors from the factory to the test airport one kilometer away.
"Perfect! The light energy receptors covered on the surface of the Black Wither space shuttle are all normal, and the battery system is also normal." Fan Xiaoming looked at the test data on his laptop and said with a smile, "Su Zhe! Your power system over there How about the control system?”
Su Zhe smiled and said, "No problem at all."
Fan Xiaoming looked at the space shuttle Black Wither in front of him and sighed: "It's so dreamy. We actually built such a big thing in such a short period of time. I can't believe it."
"Indeed!" Su Zhe smiled, "If we use the Black Wither space shuttle to transport people, it can carry thousands of people at a time. If it weren't for the space problem, it would be easy to carry 10,000 people."
"No! It's better to carry fewer people at a time. If an accident occurs, we can't afford it." Fan Xiaoming said seriously.
According to the plan, the Blue Bird space shuttle is regarded as the largest manned space shuttle. In addition to the Blue Bird, there are many different types of space shuttles under development.
However, the number of passengers on these space shuttles ranges from a few dozen to a thousand, and they are all small and medium-sized manned space shuttles.
"Yes!" Su Zhe nodded.
"Hey! To be honest, these space shuttles built now are not perfect enough. They must use beam channels to fly into space." Fan Xiaoming smiled bitterly. "If it is equipped with a serious heavy photon aerospace engine, or there is a super With a more powerful battery, the space shuttle will not need to rely on beam channels to charge, and can fly directly from the ground to space."
"I do think so!" Su Zhe smiled, "Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to produce a genuine heavy photon aerospace engine and a more powerful battery in a short time."
"Take your time!" Fan Xiaoming asked with a smile, "By the way! Have you read the plan to travel from geosynchronous orbit to the moon jointly submitted by the research center's scientific research team and the school? What do you think?"
"I've seen it!" Su Zhe nodded and said, "In general, it's okay, but some details need to be optimized. For example, the spaceships between the two places should not carry more than 10,000 passengers."
"Yes! I think so too." Fan Xiaoming smiled, "I don't know what the scientific research team and the people at the school think, but they want to build a spaceship that can carry 100,000 passengers. Is it necessary?"
"One hundred thousand people! Just build a space city." Su Zhe asked with a smile, "By the way! I heard that the School of Architecture is joining forces with other colleges to build a space city in space that can accommodate a million people. not real?"
"It does happen." Fan Xiaoming said, "The School of Architecture has been very active during this period. The plan to develop the moon has its contribution. What they are promoting is not just the construction of a million-level space city, but also the development of Mars. There are hints of architecture school.”
"Not to mention, we haven't successfully landed on the moon yet. These people are about to come up with a plan to develop the entire solar system. This is too positive." Su Zhe said with a smile.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "Don't forget the virtual solar system created by our research center and the School of Computer Science. The staff of our research center and the students and teachers of the school will participate in it whenever they have nothing to do. With so many people participating, it is difficult to be active unless Weird."
The virtual solar system is actually just like an online game, simulating and developing the solar system.
However, the virtual solar system is not open to the public, and only teachers, students of the school, and people from the Jiutian Research Center can participate.
"That's right! With the existence of a virtual solar system and the participation of so many people, any plan can be worked out." Su Zhe smiled.
The virtual solar system is a beta version of the virtual universe we want to build.
So far, the effect is extremely good.
As the two chatted, the space shuttle Black Wither in front of them completed its simulation test.
The tractor slowly drove over.
After a while, the tractor pulled the Black Wither space shuttle slowly out of the factory.
When Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming were about to follow them out, a large group of people came over.
Taking the lead are President Xu Zhengping, Dean of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics Li Congshan, Dean of the School of Computer Science Li Congshan, Bao Qizheng, Zuo Dajun and others.
Tomorrow is not just about testing three space shuttles, but also testing the space suit developed under the leadership of Zuo Dajun, and the remote-controlled bionic robot developed under the leadership of the School of Computer Science.
During the test flight, the bionic robot will wear a spacesuit and ride on the space shuttle.
After the space shuttle enters space, ground personnel remotely control the bionic robot wearing a space suit to move in space.
After everyone greeted them warmly, they talked about tomorrow's arrangements.
There will be many guests coming to visit tomorrow.
These people include partners from Lingzhou University of Science and Technology, heads of relevant domestic units, and representatives from major universities.
At the same time, the test flight process tomorrow will be broadcast live simultaneously to students, teachers, and some important people of Lingzhou University of Technology.
You must know that this test flight is extremely important. It is not only related to whether Lingzhou University of Technology can achieve its small goals, but also related to the progress of human beings going beyond the earth to develop the solar system.
Everyone left the factory and walked to the test airport one kilometer away while chatting.
On the way, Fan Xiaoming introduced relevant parameters to those who did not know much about the three space shuttles.
It focuses on how far the three space shuttles can fly solely relying on the energy they carry.
The Blue Bird space shuttle can fly ten kilometers based on the energy it carries when empty, and the flight distance is three kilometers when fully loaded.
The White Goose space shuttle can fly eight kilometers when empty and two kilometers when fully loaded.
The space shuttle Black Wither can fly seven kilometers when empty and one kilometer when fully loaded.
After Fan Xiaoming finished speaking, someone asked, what would happen if the space shuttle was equipped with a genuine heavy photon aerospace engine? What if the space shuttle's super-battery packs were replaced with nuclear reactors to provide energy?
Fan Xiaoming's answer was very clear.
If it is a genuine heavy photon aerospace engine, it can fly directly from the ground to space as long as the existing space shuttle is optimized.
If a nuclear reactor is used to provide energy, if safety issues are not considered, a space shuttle using a nuclear reactor to provide energy can indeed fly directly from the ground to space.
But this plan is too dangerous. Once the space shuttle disintegrates in the air, it will be a huge disaster for mankind.
