Chapter 511: : "The Gemini Project"]

In fact, Ren Hong himself did not dabble in space technology too much, but the space technology process of Matrix Technology is still in full swing. The most important factor is that Air China supports behind the scenes, not only sharing technology for "China Matrix", but also delivering With a large number of talents, Ren Hong actually issued some task indicators. His most current work or research is mainly the technology decoding of the Blue Water Giant.
With Liu Yuliang at the helm of the "China Matrix", Ren Hong only needs to invest money and set the general direction of control. If there are any technical difficulties that cannot be overcome, he will join him. Fortunately, he is not needed much at present.
However, the space technology of the "China Matrix" has another biggest feature, and Ren Hong's greatest contribution, that is the huge difference between the system and the Western space technology, because the existence of "Ziyuanjing" has led to the space of the "China Matrix" The technology is moving towards another turning point. In other words, it is more advanced. The small size and high energy storage "purple source crystal" as a power source means that it can completely abandon the bloated rocket launch and carry more materials to greatly reduce the cost of launching. and many more.
This completely different shooting tower has completely changed the development direction of matrix technology and even the entire country in the space technology system due to the appearance of "Amethyst Spar".
That's right, this shooting tower is not used for rocket shooting, but for the shooting of aerospace transport aircraft. Let's say the "Fox Eagle" aerospace transport aircraft. This type of transport aircraft is specially designed to transport materials to space. It is 42 meters long, has a wingspan of 18 meters, and has a maximum payload of 63 tons of materials.
The volume of the "Archawk" aerospace transport aircraft is much smaller than that of the "Columbia" space shuttle that has been retired by the United States, but its payload is twice that of the "Columbia". To be able to do this, it is inevitable that "Amethyst Spar" can be used as the energy supply of the power thruster.
The bloated "Columbia" space shuttle needs a large part of its mass for propulsion fuel, but the "Arc Eagle" aerospace transport powered by "Purple Source Crystal" can afford a purple stone the size of a can. All the energy supply required for the entire transport aircraft to travel between space and the ground means that most of the space and load capacity originally occupied by fuel can be used to transport materials.
And the complete abandonment of rockets is an absolute turning point for the human space industry.
Shooting towers have completely replaced rockets. The "Arc Eagle" aerospace transport aircraft enters the ejection orbit of the shooting tower on the take-off runway. In just nine seconds, it can make the aerospace transport aircraft use a semi-"" shaped ejection orbit in nine seconds. Within a period of time, when the transport plane is separated from the launch tower, it will be able to get 35 bonus points, and when the "Arc Eagle" air-sky transport plane has 360,000 kilometers, it is 80,000 kilometers past the US space shuttle.
According to the plan, the "Tiangong Ring Star Harbor" has a mass of up to 77 tons, and the "Arc Eagle" is calculated according to the standard 5 tons material load. At least 15 round-trip transportation between outer space and the earth has to be carried out.
It is just an aerospace transport aircraft, and its efficiency is too slow. For this reason, the "China Matrix" plans to build an "Arc Eagle" aerospace transport aircraft to meet transportation needs.
Fortunately, the development and application of "Ziyuanjing" have greatly reduced the cost of Matrix Technology’s space activities. If a launch vehicle is used to bear the materials for the construction of the orbiting star port, not only will it be caused by the rocket load. The number of launches has doubled to more than three times, and the supply of rockets will certainly not keep up. This has caused the construction cycle of the orbit Starport to skyrocket, and the expensive, low-cost, and inefficient rocket launch costs are enough to make people desperate.
It costs 1.5 to 300 million U.S. dollars for one shot, and it takes three full times to ship, and the shipping cost alone exceeds 500 million U.S. dollars. Even a high-level funder such as Matrix Technology cannot afford it.
Fortunately, the "China Matrix" does not have these troubles. The existence and use of Ziyuanjing allows the "China Matrix" to obtain cheap space exploration costs, which is an unmatched advantage in Western space exploration.
Ren Hong left the shooting tower control center and came to the production workshop. The "China Matrix" is located in the north of the company's headquarters, covering an area of ​​36 hectares, which is larger than the area required by the research and production center of any subsidiary of Matrix Technology. . No way, the characteristics of the "China Matrix" are like this. A firing tower and take-off runway must occupy a large space, and there must be protection around it, and a lot of space must be vacated.
Ren Hong inspected the space base for most of the day, and basically had a general understanding of all the planning processes. To his surprise, the progress of the project was much faster than he expected. However, it is relieved to think about it. The efficiency is so fast because of the internal technology tree shared by Matrix Technology, the support of the external Air China Administration and the government, and the "help" of major brother companies. For example, the subsidiary will soon provide a batch of intelligent devices. The production unit provided assistance in the production of materials for the "Tiangong Ring Orbit Star Harbor".
As long as the raw materials arrive, the intellectual machinery manufacturing production line can be fully activated, and the efficiency of production and manufacturing is enough to describe it as a dream.
On the third day, the tepid "China Matrix Space Exploration Technology Company" announced important news.
The "China Matrix" hasn't shown up much since its inception, and all the limelight has been snatched away by the project plans of the brother companies. Now the high-profile announcement of important plans immediately attracted the attention of the industry, especially related sciences such as astrophysics and astronomy. mechanism.
No one dares to underestimate this company. Although Matrix Technology is a latecomer in the field of space exploration, it is backed by one of the world's top aerospace powers. No one dares to ignore this "new player", "China Matrix". There is no concealment of the shadow of the Air China Administration, just like the US ns vs. spnbsp;Interestingly, the "China Matrix" releases news to the outside world. The institutions that have just concluded the 6th
Planetary Defense
Conference not long ago are very happy, because they believe that this time the
China Matrix
releases news, it should be joined, in fact, the external media are generally like this. thought.
Agence France-Presse’s media also reported that Matrix Technology is well-deserved to join. Although it is a latecomer in the field of space exploration, it is also not weaker than the upstarts such as sp and 1pb, and not weaker than Laura Space. These veteran aerospace companies, the potential of 1s company is beyond doubt.
"What? Refused?" Di Dimons, the head of the agency still in Cologne, Germany, looked at the ceiling in a daze. The voice from thousands of miles away in the communicator came into the ear again: "Yes, sir, the other party tactfully refused to join."
After finishing the communication, Di Dimons murmured: "How can he refuse? Is it an act of retaliation for trying to apply for the initiator of the Ninth Space Agency?"
After thinking about it, Di Dimons shook his head again, this is not like a Chinese style. This group of foreigners would never think that the space technology they were proud of was already expensive and cheap technology in Ren Hong's eyes, and they simply dismissed it.
The news of Matrix Technology’s refusal to invite to join spread wildly, and the industry was shocked. The consensus prediction of mainstream voices made collective mistakes. At the same time, I didn’t understand why we had to give up such an opportunity. I tried my best to apply for joining, but today I did not Is hesitant refusal an act of spirit? Or something else?
For a while, the opinions were divergent, and the media who saw the wind suddenly pulled it out. Matrix Technology's "euphemistic" refusal was really too embarrassing. This time I was embarrassed all over the world to the South China Sea. The Daily Mail couldn't help but jokingly ridiculed it, reminding me not to magnify words without full confidence, hoping that I would not be so embarrassed again.
Matrix Technology’s refusal and naked face-slapped behavior is equivalent to saying goodbye completely. As for one of the parties, only a brief message was posted, claiming that the resolution was regrettable, and then nothing went on.
The "China Matrix" announced that it will formally hold a press conference a week later, and announced a large-scale space exploration project called the "Gemini Project" on the parent company's official website.
In this condensed message with less than 50 Chinese characters, Matrix Technology made a simple disclosure of the "Gemini Project" ~EbookFREE.me~The Gemini Project" is a collective term, and is composed of "Sentinel Mission". Synthesize the "Gemini Project" with the "Mars Mission".
The outside world has absolutely no idea about the "sentinel mission" in the "Gemini Project" announced by Matrix Technology. It is impossible to interpret useful information literally, and the official has not provided an explanation. It is only necessary to know the exact news. Can wait for the announcement of more details.
But the other mission of the "Gemini Project" is different, namely: the Mars mission, where the two striking characters "Mars" are placed there. Although there is no specific explanation like the "Sentinel Mission", it is only from the two "Mars". A big character can explain that this so-called "Gemini Project" must be related to the exploration of Mars, and it is definitely an ambitious space project of Matrix Technology.
To hold a news conference is definitely not a small mess.
A brief official news immediately attracted the attention of practitioners in the world's astronomy and astrophysics and major space fields.
Matrix Technology announced that it will hold a news conference, and the media around the world love it, because referring to past examples, every time this company's news conference is held, the number of subscriptions and click-through rates at that stage are soaring, which can be converted For real money.
For a time, major mainstream media around the world sent reporters to the "China Matrix" at the matrix technology headquarters to participate in the press conference.

A single recommendation of the day: Today I recommend an unpopular single, a single produced by the American San Francisco rock band "": 5ssb, which translates as "5 Ways to Say Goodbye". I personally think this single is very good, but because Many people don't have the chance to get in touch with copyright issues. I recommend it to everyone today. If you are interested, you can listen to it! In order to learn English, Stone did not learn English so much that he listened to a lot of English songs, which was embarrassing to be continued.
