Speaking of Blue Star, whether it is sending astronauts or probes to space, the only way now is rockets.
Even with Jiang Chen around, rockets are currently the only vehicle that humans can use to send payloads into space, even to the edge of the solar system.
But Jiang Chen knew that it was impossible for rockets to bring human civilization into the space age, so he still wanted to upgrade human civilization? That is simply nonsense!
The rocket's efficiency and carrying capacity are too low. Although the engine has been upgraded, which can reduce a considerable part of the launch cost, it is still difficult to send hundreds of thousands or even millions of tons of payload into space at once. Possible things.
Do humans want to enter space on a large scale?
It's a little difficult.
Jiang Chen stood there without speaking, but his brain was actually working rapidly.
The space elevator must be built. If you don’t build it, you won’t be able to learn the technology.
After confirming his idea, he took up Guo Fan's words.
"Director Guo, since we want to film the space elevator, it's not impossible to do it."
Jiang Chen's words were undoubtedly a small bomb, blowing Guo Fan who was at close range and Wu Wan on the space station to pieces. Their hearts were beating wildly, unable to find their own rhythm.
"Academician Jiang, are you going to build a space elevator?" Guo Fan felt that he had never been so nervous before, and neither he nor Gonggel had ever felt this way when looking for someone to invest.
I beg you, Academician Jiang, are you kidding me?
Who would actually build a space elevator?
"Academician Jiang, you must be joking." Wu Dan laughed and said.
In his opinion, even if Jiang Chen has developed so many incredible scientific research results, no matter how outrageous, he will not set his sights on the space elevator.
"Director Guo, Brother Ba, don't be nervous."
"There are actually ways to make materials for space elevators..."
Before Jiang Chen finished speaking, Guo Fan became anxious: "Academician Jiang, the leaders above the space elevator project will definitely not agree!"
"No, Team Leader Fang should agree."
Guo Fan:? ? ?
Academician Jiang, do you want to see what you are talking about?
Why did Team Leader Fang agree to such an outrageous plan? !
Even for a person of Academician Jiang's level, as the leader of the science and technology team, it is impossible for him to agree with Jiang Chen's idea in a flash.
Guo Fan thought that he could not let Jiang Chen do whatever he wanted.
He followed Jiang Chen to find Team Leader Fang.
Team leader Fang was a little surprised when he saw the combination of these two.
What would Academician Jiang and a film director do to me?
"Team Leader Fang, I thought of a more convenient way to enter space than launching a rocket."
Team leader Fang became interested as soon as he heard it.
"Oh? Did Academician Jiang have any inspiration again?" Jiang Chen surprised him everywhere. This time Jiang Chen came to him suddenly, and Team Leader Fang saw hope.
If there is a more convenient way to enter space than rockets, then the later construction of the space station and lunar base will definitely be faster!
Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't speak, he asked, "Academician Jiang, just say it with confidence. Don't worry, I can accept whatever you say."
With the words of Team Leader Fang, Jiang Chen was confident.
"It's like this. I plan to build an elevator that goes directly to the Ark's space station. By then, people can take this elevator and realize their dream of ascending directly from the ground to space."
Team leader Fang: ...
"Academician Jiang, I seem to understand everything you said, but I still don't quite understand." Team Leader Fang thought he knew Jiang Chen very well, but he didn't expect that he was still careless after all.
elevator?
Who can build an elevator to go to space?
"Captain Fang, what I mean is to build a space elevator to create a shortcut for humans to enter space."
"Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, the father of aerospace, once proposed this idea. I believe there is some truth to it!"
"Currently, the space station and lunar base are only in the early stages of construction, and the difficulty will become more and more difficult in the future."
"Therefore, it is imperative to research a space elevator to ensure later construction work!"
Team Leader Fang's expression turned ugly.
"Build an elevator on the ground to go directly to the Ark Space Station?"
"That would require at least 36,000 kilometers!
"How do we repair it?"
Jiang Chen thought that he could improve his cultivation, but do you dare to cultivate?
After all, Team Leader Fang is not a young man anymore. Seeing Jiang Chen's determined look, an idea came to his mind.
"Academician Jiang, since you are here, you must have a plan to build this space elevator, right?"
When Jiang Chen saw that Team Leader Fang was on the road, he didn't hide it and said, "It's true."
Guo Fan was listening and began to beat his head, thinking that the plan would be the one set by the crew, right?
Team leader Fang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Chen, and stopped playing riddles with him: "Academician Jiang, do you have any... ideas?"
Jiang Chen was very honest and said, "I want to test some technologies by building a space elevator. The space elevator may not be successful in the end, but the technology involved is very critical."
Team leader Fang suddenly realized.
No wonder Academician Jiang proposed building a space elevator. It turned out to be to verify the technology.
This is also common in the scientific research community, but Jiang Chen's experiment this time was obviously a bit big.
But there's nothing we can do about it, Academician Jiang needs to be pampered.
"If Academician Jiang really wants to try it, you can submit the plan first and we can take a look at it. We can start with the test machine."
A smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth.
A test machine means there is no need to recreate the space elevator in the original movie 1:1.
This is actually what Jiang Chen wants.
If you want to restore the space elevator 1:1, you won’t be able to agree even if you put a knife on Leader Fang’s neck.
Jiang Chen is not stupid. In this peaceful and prosperous era, Long Kingdom agreed to build a space elevator of the same proportions as in the movie. People in other areas, especially Yingjiang's group, would definitely not agree.
36,000 kilometers, even if the rope of the space elevator is dropped, it is enough to circle the Blue Star.
There are many ways to go to space, but Wandering Planet couldn't provide them, so Jiang Chen started thinking about his next movie.
The key point now is to first master the technology of building a space elevator. Once Jiang Chen masters this set of technologies, it will be easier for Jiang Chen to learn other technologies.
He has already thought about his next movie, and if he wants to make it, he must make the kind of movie that helps him solve his current problems!
It’s difficult to go to space just by relying on a space elevator!
The best way is to earn points by using the space elevator first.
Jiang Chen silently opened the system interface and checked some movies that could be shot.
"The Three-Body Problem", "Nantianmen", "Blade Runner", "Pacific Rim", "Elysium" and so on.
For any of these movies, the technology he acquired would be even more advanced than it is now!
