Chapter 529: Star Eye's target, point at Lagrange!


Kunshan, Jiangsu, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Xingchen Technology, Xingchen Optics.
Guo Shouyu followed Luo Jia and came to see Zhang Yuechuan and Lu Chengfeng, who were in charge. After a brief greeting, they went to the fourth workshop under the leadership of Zhang Yuechuan.
"This is a trouble. Since you have a space telescope solution, why not say it earlier?"
"I don't know how the mirror you designed compares to the latest Weber telescope in North America."
On the way, Guo Shouyu asked many questions, but Zhang Yuechuan and Luo Jia both felt embarrassed and did not answer immediately.
Luo Jia frowned and said, "Well ... our space telescope is still very special. The reason why we didn't notify everyone in advance is also our own reasons. In short, it is difficult to say a word. You will know after a while."
"It's hard to say a word?" Guo Shouyu wondered, "I'd like to see, then, can your space telescope go against the sky? For so many years, telescopes around the world have almost the same design, because the optical principle is there. "
Luo Jia and Zhang Yuechuan looked at each other, said nothing, and continued to move forward.
The fourth workshop is independently connected to the factory area through a narrow corridor, and the access control is very strict. Everyone must pass the iris test, and then pass through the huge metal reinforced door to finally enter the interior of the workshop.
"robot!"
After entering the workshop, Guo Shouyu flashed his eyes and exclaimed.
I saw that this is a futuristic factory with a very advanced concept. The main productivity comes from human engineers, hardcover robot arms, and general-purpose work robots led by Starwing.
Among them, human beings are more responsible for supervision and management, and the ultra-fine work of processing optical lenses is done by robots and mechanical arms to ensure the final assembly accuracy.
"This is your lens !?"
Guo Shouyu suddenly stopped and looked at the huge optical lens in the clean room, revealing an unbelievable look, like seeing some kind of frightening monster.
"Yes, what you see is the main lens of the space telescope we make." Zhang Yuechuan answered slightly blandly.
Guo Shouyu was completely stunned, because this lens has exceeded his imagination. Roughly estimated that the diameter is at least 25 meters or more, which is equivalent to the height of eight floors.
You know, the famous Hubble Space Telescope has a caliber of only 2.4 meters and the billion-dollar super space telescope Webb. The caliber is 6.5 meters. However, the space telescope designed by Xingchen Technology has a single lens diameter. Over an astonishing twenty-five meters, what kind of crazy is this?
"You guys ... you didn't even use the splitting technique!" Guo Shouyu asked for a minute after he stunned for a full minute.
Luo Jia skimmed his lips. "It is true that the Weber Space Telescope in North America uses eighteen hexagonal lenses with a single diameter of 1.3 meters and a weight of 40 kilograms. In simple terms, it is a combination lens. Weber's lens Is stitched together with eighteen hexagons. "
"The question is, does hexagonal stitched lenses really represent advanced technology?"
"I don't think so. The reason why North America adopts a combined design is not from an optical angle. It is more because of the stability of the mechanical mechanism, the flexibility of the motor control system, the limited volume inside the rocket, and the total cost control. Other related reasons. "
"That is to say, North America wants to use one-piece circular mirrors like us, but unfortunately they can't make them. The strength of the mechanical structure can't support this kind of super large lens. The total weight of the telescope is hundreds of tons. There is no such powerful launch vehicle. "
Although Xingchen Optics is a rising star in the industry, it has already become a blue star. Inside the ultra-ultraviolet laser hybrid lithography machine, the complicated and unparalleled lens system, Xingchen Optics can be successfully developed.
In terms of auxiliary systems, the main mechanical structure of the Star Space Telescope uses more advanced graphene materials and more powerful ultrasonic motors. It is not delivered by rockets, but by a space elevator located on Weigu Island. These prerequisites are Not in the West.
Different conditions and doomed play are different, so Xingchen Technology chose a simple and rude route, and built a giant with a weight of several hundred tons.
"Not necessarily?" Guo Shouyu thought for a moment and said, "After Weber is divided into small mirrors, each small mirror actually has a separate motor to control it, so if there is any optical aberration that needs to be adjusted, it can be controlled more flexibly."
"At the time, when the Hubble Telescope was sent to the sky, some optical aberrations were discovered, and North America was crazy to find the cause. It turned out that there was an error in the calibration mirror of the Hubble main mirror system, which eventually led to the main mirror being very accurately Grinding into a wrong shape, they spent a lot of money and great effort to correct the error, and the split lens system exists to correct the error. "
After listening to these words, Luo Jia smiled and said lightly: "If there is an error, the lens system needs to be corrected, and our lens accuracy is 0.1 nanometer, there is no error, so we don't need a lens."
"How many!?"
"You just said, what is the error of this lens !?"
Guo Shouyu grabbed his hair with his right hand and jumped almost in place with excitement. His voice was obviously eight degrees higher.
"One-tenth of a nanometer," Luo Jia replied calmly.
Guo Shouyu took a cool breath, he was shocked at first, and then exulted.
Those who have not done astronomical observations have a hard time understanding what 0.1 nanometer accuracy means and the cost exceeds 10 billion U.S. dollars. It is known as the most powerful space telescope of the 21st century in humankind, the North American Weber. What is the error of its lens? ?
Ten nanometers.
Xingchen Technology has achieved 0.1 nanometers, with an error of only one hundredth of the Weber.
What is even more incredible is that the diameter of the Weber lens is 1.3 meters, and the diameter of Xingchen Technology's lens is 25.537 meters, which is 19.36 times that of the Weber!
With such a huge lens, the realization of almost zero errors, I really don't know how Star Technology did it. Such a feat will definitely rewrite the history of the earth astronomy observation field.
"We did not use traditional grinding, but used robots and laser grinding technology." Luo Jia said faintly: "You may have forgotten that when we were studying lithography machines, we took out high-energy physics and set up a separate research institute. The dean is Xu Guangling and the chief consultant is Wen Chengling. "
"Wen Chengling's main energy is still in the Department of Life Science, but it has also played a key role in the work of the High Energy Physics Institute. Anyway, we have invested heavily in the laser field. We do n’t have a laser rapid-fire gun, but laser precision machinery, we A few have been developed. "
Guo Shouyu didn't know what to say. This is Xingchen Technology. It is a super awesome polymer. Before Xu Guangling came to Xingxing Technology, he was the star of tomorrow at the High Energy Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The laser expert turned to research in life sciences with a wide range of disciplines, which is unprecedented. Not to mention, he also succeeded and became a wonderful scientist across high-energy physics and life sciences.
"Let's stop here, right?" Zhang Yuechuan looked at his watch and said, "Everyone is waiting, what you really want to show you is still behind."
Hey ~
Guo Shouyu suddenly had a sense of Liu Liu entering the Grand View Garden. He wanted to be the director of the National Astronomical Observatory. After seeing the experts in the field of astronomy observation, when he came to Xingchen Technology, he felt that his eyes were not enough. Feeling fresh.
As the so-called person is more popular than death, this is probably the reason.
After walking through the busy production workshop, a group went into the test assembly area, where various components will be assembled and produced as the final product.
"My gosh, these are all space telescopes !?" Guo Shouyu stopped and asked. He looked at the behemoths in front of him, feeling that his legs were a little soft, and he couldn't move.
"Yes," Luo Jiashen said. "In addition to optical mirrors, we also prepared X-ray mirrors, infrared mirrors, ultraviolet mirrors, and radio microscopes."
"Let's say this ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Our plan is called the Eye of the Star. It is not composed of a certain telescope, but a complete array of astronomical observations."
Eyes of the stars!
Complete array of astronomical observations!
Not a single space telescope, but an array of many telescopes!
Realizing the meaning of Luo Jia's words, Guo Shouyu felt that the whole person was about to burst. This is probably Luo Jia's favorite cornering overtaking. When he was desperately building a space telescope in the West, he created a composite super observation array!
"Are you letting Enron rearrange the plan? Are you prepared to love the star of the star on Space Zero station?" Guo Shouyu asked.
Luo Jia shook her head with a smile. "Of course, a telescope will be installed on Space Zero, but the eyes of the stars will not be placed there."
There just happened to be a star map of the solar system, Luo Jia observed, then said with a finger: "The eyes of the stars will be placed here, five special solutions to the restricted three-body problem, Lagrange point!"
