Chapter 464: Spaceship to heaven

On January 15th, the aerospace airport was very lively. Many people were caged in the square, and they were all staring at a behemoth.
It is 200 meters long, 40 meters wide and 50 meters high. Looks like a blue whale.
This is the newly designed spacecraft of the Space Exploration Group, the unmanned intelligent spacecraft, and the Xinghai Explorer-1.
It adopts a variety of new technologies and is a masterpiece of Qingci Technology and Space Exploration Group technology.
The rich equipment and huge carrying capacity of the spacecraft is one of its hallmarks.
Its silver-white hull contrasts with rainbow-like rays in the sun.
Seeing the unique optical reflection effect on the spacecraft, it is known that its entire hull is made of the highest-end materials on earth today, and the silicon gold crystal material is manufactured by one-piece molding.
Because miniature nuclear power plants can provide huge power for ion-electric propulsion engines.
The huge storage space can also store enough fuel.
The spacecraft is not only more bulky, it has also abandoned the wing structure design of the space shuttle.
It adopts recoil vertical takeoff and landing and vertical landing schemes.
The take-off process of a spacecraft, although not as convenient as a space shuttle.
But its take-off process is more simple and controllable, it just consumes some more energy and fuel.
The conventional ground is completely unable to withstand the extremely high-temperature flames ejected by the ion-electric propulsion engine when it starts.
From the ground where the spacecraft stays, the rainbow-colored light band peculiar to silicon gold crystals flashes, you can know the solidity of the ground.
Li Hao said with a smile to Qiu Shi, who is standing next to him, "Director Qiu, what about our company's newly designed spacecraft. The character does not meet the standard of spacecraft in your mind."
"It looks very mighty, I just hope that it is not a good product. Seeing these silicon gold crystals applied to a spacecraft, I always feel too wasteful." Director Qiu Shi said with envy.
"The total amount of silicon and gold crystals collected by our country and our company is similar, except that the country's use of silicon and gold crystals is too scattered.
We use all the silicon gold crystals on the spacecraft. Li Hao said with a smile.
Director Qiu Shi waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "This is also impossible, or the total amount is too small. The family business is too large, and there is not much to share."
"Your spacecraft needs to be more powerful. Now the collection of silicon gold crystals on the moon has stopped.
Just wait for the spacecraft to successfully repair the moon before we can proceed with the acquisition.
I was afraid of continuing the inquiry and affecting the development of the moon, but there was no way to fix it. Director Qiu Shi's eyes contained a trace of anxiety, and he said flatly.
Li Hao responded with great enthusiasm: "Relax, the process has been simulated many times. Our scheme is very mature.
Not surprisingly, the collection of silicon gold crystals can be resumed quickly.
Now that our company has received the payment, we can definitely do it well. "
As they were talking, a cymbal drum sounded in the square of the airport.
The personnel who were surrounding the spacecraft, immediately heard the sound of drums, were immediately away from the spacecraft under the arrangement of intelligent robots to maintain order.
In the square of the airport, there is an area circled by a one meter wide yellow line.
All personnel and equipment were moved outside the yellow line.
This is to protect people and equipment from being injured by the flame of the ion engine sputtered on the silicon gold crystal floor.
The slow drums began to rush, and intelligent robots were patrolling the square, which had already begun to block the entire square.
They waited, even a bird could not fly above the spacecraft.
Prevent unsuccessful launches of spacecraft.
In the space command center, Niu Zhenfeng watched that the spacecraft self-check had been completed.
The virtual light curtain on the space command center shows the entire process of the spacecraft self-inspection.
"Xinghai Explorer No. 1, the self-test procedure begins. The intelligent computer is active and controls all the devices to turn on in turn."
"The micro-nuclear reactor control software was opened and nuclear fuel plutonium began to be refilled. The nuclear reactor was officially started.
The power module is normal, the temperature difference generator is normal, and the standby temperature difference generator can be connected to the power grid at any time. The spacecraft power supply system is normal. "
"Two main ion engines have been successfully refueled, and five universal auxiliary ion engines have been successfully refueled. The fuel supply system is normal and the fuel storage is sufficient."
"The temperature maintenance system started normally and the mechanical control system started normally.
Xinghai Explorer No. 1 is ready to take off. "
Niu Zhengfeng saw that the spacecraft's quality inspection was completed, and he pressed the spacecraft's start button to start the formal activation of the spacecraft's take-off procedure.
A ray of light flashed on the one-meter-diameter metal ball next to it.
This is the newly deployed neutrino communicator.
Only a few base stations need to be deployed on Earth. Deploying several relay satellites in space can cover a wide range of communication needs.
The neutrinos constrained by the laser immediately carried the information and passed to the spacecraft's intelligent computer at the speed of light.
"Accepting the instructions, Xinghai Explorer 1 began to enter the take-off process."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. Take off."
The continuous sound of drums stopped immediately, and everyone standing on the square saw five light blue flames below the spacecraft.
The distribution of these five flames is similar to the five points on the dice. One at each of the two centers.
This is a carefully calculated layout that can make the spacecraft's overall hull stable during takeoff and landing.
The spacecraft's huge hull slowly lifted. From the outsiders' point of view, it feels very slow, which is due to the small acceleration of the ion engine.
But its true speed was not slow at all, and it quickly rose to 10,000 meters.
The main ion engines on both sides of the spacecraft started immediately.
It spewed a blazing white flame, distorting the air.
I only saw the spacecraft. The hull trembled in the air. It was like an arrow off the string, and quickly flew out into space.
The hull and the atmosphere were rubbing at high speeds while making a loud roar.
The silver hulls became slightly reddish.
The heat of the hull ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is introduced into the temperature difference engine of the nuclear power plant through the Yanjin heat transfer mechanism, and becomes a steady stream of electrical energy.
The spacecraft quickly broke through the constraints of Earth's gravity.
It followed the designated path and flew towards the asteroid belt.
As the spacecraft breaks through the gravitational constraints of the earth.
Niu Zhengfeng came to the hall outside the command center.
Directors Li Hao and Qiu Shi also stood in the hall, but most of the people here were supporting manufacturers and manufacturing units of spacecraft.
Niu Zhengfeng looked around and announced with excitement: "I announced that the launch of Xinghai Explorer-1 was a complete success.
The spacecraft meets design requirements and can already perform space missions perfectly. "
After hearing the news, everyone was not surprised. But he still showed a look of great joy, applauding warmly.
