October 2022, Jade Khanate

Many of the Jade Khanate's space launch missions were completed at the Besol launch site, which is located in the Guanmu North area more than 200 kilometers east-southeast of Plateau City.

As the launch caliber of rockets becomes larger and larger, and the launch density becomes higher and higher, the requirements for the size and quantity of launch sites also increase.

In recent years, the scope of the entire space center has been continuously expanded, and the Baysol launch site has become an integral part of it, rather than the whole.

Therefore, the official name of the Jade Khanate Space Center is now Guanmubei Aerospace Center.

On October 4, the Thurman space tug launch site. The front of the command hall is a huge main screen, flanked by smaller screens for multiple subsystem monitors.

Opposite the screen are eight rows of stepped workstations for field workers.

Professor Mustafa directed the engineers at each position in an orderly manner and listened to various reports one by one.

"Rocket attitude, normal."

"Circuit ignition, normal."

"Monitoring system, normal."

"The evacuation of personnel is complete, report to the commander, and the launch is ready."

The commander was Professor Mustafa. He looked up at the huge glass curtain wall of the VIP floor on the second floor, waved to Hamid who was standing at the window, and nodded to indicate that he was ready.

Hamid turned around and picked up the tablet-sized controller on the table, handed it to Bashir beside him, and said:

"Bashir, the command has given special permission to break the convention and let you personally operate the launch procedure."

Bashir was not mentally prepared. He thought that his location was only a VIP viewing area.

He took the controller and waited for Hamid to give him the final instructions.

Hamid patted Bashir on the shoulder and said:

"If your father is still here, we will ask him to press the launch button. Now, it is up to you to fulfill his long-cherished wish."

Bashir solemnly held the controller and walked to Roxana so that she could also see the screen clearly.

The "Start Launch" button displayed on the screen was green and flashed regularly. Bashir touched the button lightly with his finger.

A clear and loud voice came from the speakers in the launch hall:

"The launch procedure has been started, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..."

After Bashir heard 1, he pressed the launch button.

The Zunarong three-stage rocket independently developed by the Jade Khanate soared into the sky, dragging a stable white trajectory and disappearing into the depths of the sky.

The first orbital maneuvering vehicle in human history, the Thurman space tug, was successfully launched.

After Professor Mustafa congratulated each other with the on-site staff, he came to the VIP hall to meet Hamid and others. The professor held Bashir's hand and asked:

"Are you and Roxanne ready? Is the equipment safe at the farm in the Two Boat Country?"

Bashir and Roxana were still immersed in excitement. Bashir said:

"Don't worry, Professor, we are all ready. We will listen to your arrangements at any time and go to Shuangzhou Country to take over the tugboat."

Professor Mustafa told Bashir and Roxana that after the Thurman space tug enters orbit, they will take over at a suitable time.

Because experiments to verify Tesla's theory in low-Earth orbit may be discovered by others, the Jade Khanate officials cannot directly participate, nor can they control space tugs within the Jade Khanate.

Bashir and Roxana will "hijack" the space tugboat as hackers on the farm in the Two Boat Country to complete the experimental mission.

Hamid instructed: "Although your mission this time is experimental in nature and a practical exercise, no matter what situation you encounter in Shuangzhou Country, we will not help you. It is all up to you." ”

Mustafa further explained the planned timing of the experiment.

Under the leadership of Susay Muzadi, the construction plan of the space tugboat began in 2017. Taking into account the construction period, the professor originally suggested that the best time for the experiment was April 2023.

Because the solar flares and solar winds required to verify the existence of ultra-light waves and the "Little Girl" project are most likely to appear in 2023, when Saturn opposes Regulus with respect to the sun.

On April 22, 2023, the heliocentric ecliptic longitude of Saturn is 180 degrees away from Regulus, which is three o'clock and one line with the sun. The astronomical term is called "opposition".

At this time, Saturn and Regulus are in the forward and reverse directions. During the interlacing process, they will block the super-light waves in the forward and reverse directions, causing the temperature of the corresponding position of the sun to become lower, resulting in sunspots and intense solar activity.

Because Saturn's orbital period is nearly 30 years and its angular speed is slower than Jupiter's, the interleaving time is longer than that of Jupiter, and it can affect solar activity for up to half a year.

The interlacing of planets will lead to changes in the occlusion relationship of super-light waves, and solar activity will also intensify as a result.

In addition, in March 2022, the 50,000-year comet C/2022 E3 was observed.

The comet will reach perihelion on January 12, 2023, and cross the ecliptic plane on February 12.

"Considering that Saturn opposes Regulus as the background, and superimposes the impact of the comet, will the violent solar activity be advanced to January 12?" Rosanna asked.

"Yes, scientists who believe that solar activity is only caused by magnetic field activity within the sun predicted the maximum solar activity year in 2025. What they didn't expect was that the maximum year would be brought forward by a full two years." The professor rubbed his hands helplessly. hand, then said:

"Coincidentally, there is also a short-period comet, Mekhize 1 (96P), which will also cross the ecliptic plane and reach perihelion on January 31."

"Good guy! It's so lively. The blocking of ultra-light waves by these stars will intensify abnormal solar activity. From January to July 2023, solar radiation will intensify and the earth will continue to be hot?" Bashir asked.

"Yes, in the first half of 2023, the number of sunspots will soar, and the earth will continue to be hot and accompanied by natural disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons, and wildfires."

The professor continued: "The time you will take over the satellite is January 12th. We predict that there will be solar flares around that day. After completing the ultra-light wave verification test, you will complete the 'Little Girl' project from February 2nd to 6th." Practical exercises.”

Hamid took over and reminded Bashir and Roxana of the precautions for independently operating the space tug.

Using a space tug to conduct ultra-light wave experiments, according to Tesla's theory, the 180,000-kilometer-long "rope" will not only generate heat itself, but also emit extremely low-frequency radiation.

The Jade Khanate's long-wave station will receive and measure the strength of the signal, and the timing of unfolding and retracting the "rope" must be precise.

It is necessary not only to allow oneself to receive extremely low-frequency signals, but also to avoid being detected by others for too long.

"We have already blown up the long-wave station in the country of Liang. There is no longer a very low-frequency long-wave station in the same meridian zone on the earth. As long as we do experiments fast enough, it is safe. At least the very-low-frequency long-wave station in Liang will Blocked by the Earth, no signal of discernible strength could be received,” Roxana said.

"Yes, but you should note that when operating the tugboat, you will not have relay satellites and ground transfer equipment like we do now. During the day, the tugboat can only be effectively controlled when it is above your head." The professor added.

The professor whispered something to Hamid, and Hamid nodded in agreement. Professor Mustafa asked Bashir and Roxana:

"After you complete the Tesla rope test, the actual actual combat drill content can be told to you today."

"You have told us many times about Tesla's theory and the "rope" experiment of ultra-light waves. Bashir and I have been wondering why we don't use satellites to do this experiment, but we have to wait for our independently developed space tugboat?" Rosanna asked in confusion.

"This is the core secret of the 'Little Girl' project! Think about it, what is the unique function of the space tug?" the professor reminded.

"The space tug is maneuverable, can capture satellites, and can also change the orbit of satellites," Bashir said.

"In addition to artificial satellites, what else can a space tug capture?" Hamid also inspired the two of them.

Rosanna suddenly understood and shouted:

“The space tug is maneuverable and can capture near-Earth asteroids!”
