Chapter 405: torch

Lawrence did not know that he had become a glorious reserve player, but this did not prevent him from experiencing the shock of the cloud research institute to ordinary people up close.
All kinds of high-tech equipment and technologies that have been leading the earth for hundreds of years are like coming to the world of science fiction. Just looking at the list makes Lawrence feel that his heart beats and his eyes are red.
The "Prometheus" plan is just a vision of Lawrence. He originally believed that at least hundreds of years later, earth science and technology could be realized, but just before Lawrence's eyes, the difficult problems in the theory were solved, 80% The technical details above have never been seen by Lawrence.
But with the amazing ability that Captain Ghost has always shown, Lawrence can treat it with ordinary heart, but another thing makes him unable to calm down.
That is in this research institute ... there are only 16 scientists!
Sixteen scientists and three new part-time testers are said to be all living people in the research institute, and the rest are countless robot assistants.
This number can be said to be far lower than Lawrence and everyone else's imagination.
Even if it is a small laboratory set up by himself, there are more than 30 assistants who are not involved in miscellaneous tasks, and there are only 16 people in the cloud scientific research institutes that claim to have black technology everywhere and countless research and development results. !
Who can believe this? Not always engaged in scientific research can be fully automated?
In the virtual world, Yu Lao and others all displayed people in the face of small robots, without revealing their identities.
But during this period of time during the exchange of the "Prometheus" project, Lawrence could vaguely perceive that these people should be the same kind of people as themselves.
They are very familiar with the scientific research environment on the earth, and have a mature personality brought by age, experienced, wise and knowledgeable, love to be and particularly stubborn, all revealing a taste that makes Lawrence familiar ...
Lawrence will have such a familiar feeling when communicating with many top scientists.
But the difference is that in these characteristics, they seem to have a youthful vigor, which makes Lawrence feel a little contradictory.
What made Lawrence even more shocking was the "inhuman" ability demonstrated by Yu Lao and others.
Proficient in many foreign languages! Interdisciplinary all fields are involved, and the level is several floors high!
Quick thinking and quick response, the speed of mental calculation is completely incomprehensible!
The work efficiency is staggering. Often the solutions proposed in the morning have specific laboratory verification results released within two hours.
UBM knowledge has reached an incomprehensible point, almost all kinds of theories and techniques are readily available, and a few words can tell the conclusion that Lawrence needs to think for a long time.
Even in his own professional field, on the theoretical level and scientific research skills, Lawrence found frustrated that he was crushed by all the people present.
You must know that among these people, there are only five experts in the field of physics, and the rest are experts in the fields of chemistry, mathematics, and even biology.
But he can't even compare to a biological person in his professional field!
He finally knows why 16 people in every district can support the title of the strongest scientific research institute.
When such a scientist appears, Lawrence will tell himself that there are always one or two unreasonable geniuses in the world, but there are sixteen such people at once. Even if he is stupid, he knows that there must be a problem. .
It is rumored that Captain Ghost's human body strengthening technology is unparalleled in the world. The Ghost Knight can even avoid bullets. Just looking at the capabilities shown by these scientists, Lawrence knows that there is no reason for the hole.
However, when he asked whether this kind of body strengthening can be exchanged, he got a meaningful "internal employee benefit" ...
Lawrence deeply envied this employee benefit!
The strongest scientist, the strongest scientific research environment, and the strongest ghost captain ...
"It's a scientific paradise ..." Lawrence sighed as he watched the spaceship approaching the sun.
To recruit people first, this is why Nie Yun arranged Lawrence to participate in the plan. As long as he is a scientist who pursues truth, he cannot be indifferent to the scientific research environment like the cloud.
"Drip! The spaceship has arrived at the preset location!" At this time, the system sounded, interrupting Lawrence's thoughts.
The spaceship in the picture turned off the propeller, and slowly moved forward by inertia.
"Although the boss didn't come, but after all it was a revolutionary galaxy-level project. The ribbon-cutting ceremony still needs to be continued. Mr. Lawrence, you are the theory proposer of the plan, you come." Gestured.
A virtual operation panel immediately appeared in front of Lawrence, with a red handprint on it.
"No, I just put forward the inspiration for the design. There is hardly any help in the specific implementation process. This honor should belong to everyone here." Lawrence quickly resigned.
To be honest, in the second half of the plan's execution, Lawrence felt that he could not keep up with the pace of the old and others, and his technical accumulation was still too weak.
The so-called master first, Lawrence soon took a straight posture after entering the team, he is here to learn.
"Oh, inspiration is the most precious thing for science, and I look forward to you providing more inspiration for the earth." Yu Lao smiled and extended his hand to invite again.
Lawrence saw old perseverance, so he embarrassedly pressed his hand up.
"Drip! The 'Prometheus' system is officially launched!"
Then Lawrence saw the spaceship in the picture begin to slowly unfold.
First, the hull of the second half was opened, and eight sets of side-by-side thrusters suddenly split and detached in eight directions.
The spherical spaceship is filled with a thin and almost transparent film. Eight groups of propellers spray tail flames, slowly flying in 8 directions, and pulling the film behind them slowly expands.
The next picture is like opening a parachute, the area of ​​the opened film is getting larger and larger.
10 square kilometers ... 100 square kilometers ... 10,000 square kilometers ... 100,000 square kilometers ...
This huge film swelled slightly backwards under the influence of the solar wind, and finally formed an umbrella with a center pointing towards the sun.
The remaining hemispherical hull of the spaceship is hollow inside, like the counterweight sandbag of the hot air balloon, which is firmly attracted by the huge gravitational force of the sun, which offsets the solar wind thrust of the film.
The eight groups of propellers are slowly closed after the final attitude adjustment, so that the entire system and the sun remain relatively still.
"Torch No.1, track deviation 0.001%, anchoring completed!"
The Prometheus project was inspired by Dyson Ball, but Dyson Ball not only envisaged that the project was too large, but also had many difficulties.
For example, how can construction materials withstand high temperatures? How to deal with the huge internal stress caused by solar gravity? How to transport energy?
Lawrence proposed a way to replace solid materials with transparent solar films, and use flexible membranes to avoid huge internal stresses while reducing material consumption.
Solar thin-film technology is not new on earth. In 2015, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells in the laboratory has reached 21.5%, which has already entered the practical stage. After Nie Yun ’s black technology chaosed in, this civilian technology The development is even more rapid.
The unique parachute design refers to the solar sail theory.
As long as the film density and orbit are reasonable, the solar gravitation and solar wind on the film will cancel each other out, thereby keeping the orbit stable and avoiding stress tearing.
In addition, the specially designed light-transmitting film can add heat radiation reflective coating according to its own temperature tolerance, and adjust its own light transmittance to minimize the heat absorbed by itself.
Afterwards, using solar gravity, solar wind and revolution speed as parameters, Lawrence designed a stable orbit calculation formula for calculating the anchor orbit.
This is the smallest component of the "Prometheus" plan to steal fire-"torch"!
