Chapter 528: Fourteen to zero, crushed!

As StarChain plans to launch a large number of near-Earth orbit communication satellites, the astronomical observation agency has been severely affected, and the work can hardly be carried out. The expensive equipment costing tens of billions of yuan will be scrapped, causing extremely heavy losses.
Director Guo of the National Astronomical Observatory, holding the idea of ​​a dead horse as a living horse doctor, came to Xingchen Technology for help and saw if there was a solution for the tough guy sky group in the scientific and technological field. After asking, I knew that Luo Jia really had a plan. That is, a space telescope was set up on Space Zero.
After learning this news, Guo Taichang was happy to go crazy. On the same day, he and Luo Jia went to Xingchen Optics, a subsidiary in Kunshan, Jiangsu.
On the other side, Elon Musk, the chief executive of the Star Chain Program, at Cape Canaveral Space Base, Florida, North America, is also being scolded by the director of major observatories in the West.
With the increasing speed of the star chain plan and the increasing number of communication satellites, not only China ’s astronomical observatories are affected, but all observatories around the world have been forced to go crazy. Astronomers who want to find Musk desperately abound. .
Hey ~
In the office, Musk sighed at the secretary's report.
"Forget it, I'll see them." Musk frowned. "If you can't convince these astronomical people, they will be annoyed by them sooner or later."
"Then I will ask the directors to come in."
The secretary nodded, exited the room, and she returned again a few minutes later. There were a few older gentlemen in formal clothes and bow tie behind, all of whom were mature and stern, and had a gentlemanly manner in their manners.
The old gentlemen are the representatives of the National Optical Observatory of North America; OpticalAstronomyObservatory, referred to as NOAO, is composed of four Kitt Peak National Astronomical Observatories, Tololo Inter-American Observatory, North American National Solar Observatory, and the National Optical Astronomical Gemini Science Center. The top of the field of astronomical observation exists.
"We want to protest! The StarChain plan has seriously disrupted our normal observation activities!"
"Now we just look into the sky and see all your satellites!"
When the old gentlemen walked into Musk's office, they shouted loudly and stared at him, as if to eat Musk on the spot, and even the secretary sweated for Musk.
However, Musk sat on the boss chair with his legs crossed, smiling, and looked out the window with a relaxed expression.
"Although I would like to hear some seniors finish their words, it is a pity that time is not allowed."
One minute later, Musk interrupted the long discussion of the old gentlemen, stood up, ordered the secretary to have tea, and then calmly said: "Let's make a long story short, the Star Chain Project will interfere with major observatories around the world, which we have long expected. Things. "
The old gentlemen were all stunned, showing angry expressions.
"As expected, why not notify us in advance?"
"That is, we are now very passive, and astronomical observation research has almost stopped!"
"Why not go on like this! You must give us an account."
Musk nodded gently. "As Luo Jia, the owner of Xingchen Technology often said, everything has a price. Right now, it is the price that Star Chain plans to start."
"Please wait a minute, and after a while, I will give you an account."
Considering that Musk had many bad shots in the past, the old gentlemen of the observatory did not pay for his promises, and remained unwilling.
"How can you explain !?"
"The number of communication satellites in the base orbit can only increase, can it be reduced?"
Musk shook his head seriously. "Anyway, the StarChain plan must be launched. Our old rival, Xingchen Technology, launched two space super projects in one breath, namely Space Station Zero and Space Elevator. StarChain is the only place we can The existence against it must not be changed or abandoned. "
Musk spoke sharply and lowered his voice, saying, "Although the observatory on the earth is disturbed, please don't forget that we and our European allies have space telescopes. We have an absolute advantage in the field of space observation!"
"And our old rival, how many space telescopes does China have?"
"The answer is zero, and none of them! So the worst hit for the StarChain plan is not your dear directors, but our opponents."
A few old men squeaked. "Although that being said, relying solely on the space telescope cannot completely replace the ground observatory."
"Is that so?" Musk shrugged and sneered.
"The Hubble Space Telescope, on April 24, 1990, was launched by the Space Shuttle Discovery, a reflective astronomical telescope with a clear aperture of 2.4 m, used to detect cosmic targets from ultraviolet to near infrared 115-1010 nm, equipped with a spectrometer And high-speed photometers and other auxiliary equipment. The high-gain antenna communicates with the ground through a relay satellite. After maintenance in 1997, it also has near-infrared observation capabilities. "
"The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory was launched on April 5, 1991 by the space shuttle Atlantis and operates in the gamma ray band and can also be extended to the hard X-ray band."
"Chandra X-ray telescope was launched on July 23, 1999 by the space shuttle Columbia and operated in the soft X-ray band."
"The Spitzer Space Telescope was launched by the Delta II rocket on August 25, 2003 and operates in the infrared band."
"The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope was launched on June 11, 2008 by a Delta II rocket and operated in low-earth orbit. The main task is to study black holes and dark matter."
"The Kepler Space Telescope, launched on March 6, 2009, is orbiting the Earth's solar orbit, and uses the transit method to observe exoplanets."
"The Gaia Space Telescope was launched by Soyuz carrier rocket on December 19, 2013. At Lagrange point L2, which is 1.5 million kilometers away from the earth, we observe the position and movement of about 1 billion stars in the Milky Way. The most accurate 3D map of the Milky Way to date and help answer questions about the origin and evolution of the Milky Way. "
"ASTRO-HX-ray telescope, February 17, 2016, was launched into space by the H-2A rocket from the neon Kagoshima Universe Center and was orbiting the earth at a height of about 580 kilometers, observing the black hole and galaxy clusters X-ray. "
"The main mirror of the James Webb Space Telescope is made of beryllium with a diameter of 6.5 meters and an area more than five times that of the Hubble Space Telescope. It was launched in October 2018 and observes the universe through infrared bands. The most advanced and expensive space telescope ever! "
Musk grew more and more excited, and several grown-ups gradually raised their heads. From Hubble to Webb, this series of space telescopes is the pride of the West.
If you want to know the gap between China's astronomical observation field and the West, just count the number of telescopes in space.
"Everyone, I must remind you that we and our allies do not have one space telescope, but a total of nine!" Musk said excitedly, "These nine space telescopes have different angles and different bands. To help us understand and recognize the vast universe is our eyes in space. "
"And our rival Huaxia, how many space telescopes do they have?"
"No! They don't even have a space telescope!"
"In the field of space observation, our advantage is enough to kill Huaxia and crush them into slag!"
"And you know what, this is just the beginning!"
"LUVOIR, Origin, Hound, Goddess, Gaia 2, these five latest models of space telescopes will all launch this year! It will expand our number of space telescopes to an unprecedented 14 ! "
With Musk's hoarse voice and burning eyes, several observatory directors were almost choked and their whole bodies were agitated.
"This year ... we are launching five space telescopes !?"
"There are so many !?"
"Yes!" Musk said firmly. "I have an agreement with the host of the White House. Since Earth is no longer suitable for observing space, we will put the observatory directly into space!"
"And you know, what's even better?"
"What is it?" The directors hurriedly asked.
Musk's mouth rose, revealing a smug smile. "They are all surveyors, even super surveyors."
Several directors were all shocked, speechless for a moment, showing infinite expressions.
The sky survey level means the same level as the Weber Space Telescope. If the Hubble Space Telescope launched in 1990 was the benchmark of the last century, then Weber is the benchmark of the 21st century. As for the Origin, it has high capabilities The Uber was therefore called the Super Space Survey Telescope, but unfortunately the specific parameters became confusing.
In short, except for a few astronomy enthusiasts, few people can count how many sky telescopes in space ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and their names, which is normal. After all, astronomy is very far away from the lives of most people. As for the level of the space telescope, fewer people understand it.
Musk slowed his voice and said, "What I just said is only this year's plan. Next year and next year, we will launch Mayflower, Mississippi, Canyon, Phoenix, and ESA will launch Gaia 3. Gaia 4, the British will launch Newton, Neon will launch Shan Wang, South Korea will launch King Kong, Israel will launch Haifa, and Australia and New Zealand will jointly launch Stallion. "
"You see, our allies are all over the world, and the total number of our space telescopes will exceed 20 next year! The year after, the year after year, more than 30!"
"Hua Xia, who doesn't even have a space telescope, what compares us !?"
"So when Star Chain is built, we will have three hegemonies at the same time!"
"Near-Earth Orbit Hegemony! Global Communications Hegemony! And, Space Observation Hegemony! We will completely overwhelm China in these three areas!"
"Some people, please wait and see. It's not the end of the day, on the contrary, he's just the beginning!"
