.,
This is indeed a very feasible method, and it is also one of the methods that everyone currently agrees with. Gao Jinguang nodded in approval.
Wu Hao nodded: "In fact, I am more inclined to print glass than to print this kind of concrete fortress. As we all know, the main raw material for producing glass is sand, which is silica. On the moon and Mars, the soil But this is the most lacking.
Compared with the previous concrete fortress, this kind of printed glass is obviously more practical and more in line with our human imagination and expectations for future settlements on the moon and Mars.
More importantly, the dome, or living space, made of this kind of glass can make full use of sunlight, which is also very important for the humans and plants living inside. "
Glass is indeed an ideal material that is most easily available and easy to manufacture. But similarly, glass also has its shortcomings. For example, glass cannot block various harmful rays from the universe and the sun. In addition, the strength of the glass is also a problem, if you want to ensure that the printed glass is strong enough. Gao Jinguang said to him.
Wu Hao nodded and replied: "The two problems you mentioned are indeed real. First, we must study and improve the process of 3D printing glass or other glass manufacturing technologies so that it can achieve the strength and toughness we require. . Secondly, we also hope that anti-ray technology can be added to the glass manufacturing process, so that it can resist the harmful rays of the universe and the sun.
In fact, the multi-layer laminated glass we currently use in high-rise buildings is very suitable. It is not only strong enough, but also low-cost and easy to manufacture.
Moreover, we can also inject a special transparent glue or substance into the interlayer between multiple layers of glass, which can effectively block these harmful rays from the universe and the sun, thereby ensuring human health under the glass dome. "
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh. Wei Hongyu even stretched out his finger and pointed at him and said angrily: "Look, this idea is amazing and very feasible. It seems that you are here." We are conducting exploration and research, what’s the matter, has the project been approved?”
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "Currently, we are only conducting pre-research and are still far from implementation."
Not far away, time waits for us not. Wei Hongyu waved his hand and said: "At present, Miou has announced that it will return to the moon and establish an international scientific research station on the moon. Obviously, this is to exclude us and monopolize the lunar resources.
Therefore, we must speed up our lunar exploration project. Otherwise, it may be like Antarctica, where good areas are occupied by others because we start too late.
If you want to enter deep space, you cannot avoid the moon. It can be said to be the bridgehead and seesaw for us to enter deep space, and it is also the gateway to our earth.
Therefore, our aerospace department has already begun to discuss proposals and technical demonstrations for establishing a permanent scientific research station on the moon.
I think you should join this project. Relying on the official alone is still a bit weak. We should attract more private forces to come in, thereby increasing the strength of our team. "
When Wu Hao heard this, he shook his head and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but our strength is limited, so we should not get involved in such a project."

sp; What, do you have thoughts or emotions? Wei Hongyu asked while observing him.
Wu Hao shook his head and said: "No emotion, this is because we don't want to get involved in such a project. You are also here, we are a private enterprise, and our status is rather embarrassing. So, it's better not to join in the fun, otherwise... "
At this point in the sermon, Wu Haobian did not continue. However, several people present heard the meaning of his words, and Wei Hongyu even laughed and scolded: "How come you are so young and have so many thoughts.
What happened to private enterprises? Private enterprises are also an important part of our national economy. You are also important members of our country's aerospace industry. This project is related to the future development of our aerospace industry. As one of them, you are bound to shoulder this responsibility. "
Yes, it was indeed the leader. These words came out of his mouth. Such righteous words did not allow Wu Hao to refute.
The theory is this, but in reality, there are all kinds of problems, and Wu Hao doesn't want to get involved.
It would be great if he started his own commercial aerospace project. If he got involved in such a project, he would not have so much freedom and would be too restricted.
Moreover, they are private enterprises themselves. In terms of status, compared with those enterprises and units with the prefix "国" or "central government", they are much lower. If you join in, you won't have the right to speak.
Seeing that Wu Hao and Wei Hongyu had some disputes and differences in this regard, Gao Jinguang immediately changed the subject with a smile and said: "Xiao Wu, I heard from Xiao Yu before that your new generation rocket is already under development.
You also know that I have been involved with rockets my entire life, so I am very interested in your new generation of rockets.
I asked Xiaoyu, but he didn't say anything. How about it, tell me? "
When Wu Hao saw Gao Jinguang speaking out to save the situation, he immediately glanced at him, then nodded and replied: "It's actually nothing. We have already started the new generation rocket project.
In fact, there is nothing to keep secret, it's just two directions. One is to hope that the new generation of rockets can have greater carrying capacity and thus transport greater payloads.
Our current Jianmu-2 modified rocket only has a carrying capacity of just over six tons, which is far from enough for us and is difficult to handle the launch missions of some large payloads.
Therefore, it is imperative for us to develop a new generation of high-thrust rockets, both in terms of our own development and market demand.
In the second direction, we naturally hope that the manufacturing and launch costs of our new generation launch vehicle will be lower, so that we can seize more launch shares.
Although the main force of our future development is this retractable launch vehicle, ultra-low-cost disposable rockets like Jianmu-1 still have a lot of room for application.
Especially when performing some special launch missions, the advantages of this rocket are very obvious.
As for the retractable rocket, we also hope to further reduce the cost of a single launch, thereby further reducing the launch price to attract more customers.
How to further reduce launch costs? The best way is to increase the number of launches. The more times a rocket is reused, the cheaper the cost will be when it is spread evenly.
We are currently working hard in this area and hope to make a technological breakthrough in this area. "
