Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 370 Human Clones

Spider No. [-] continuously "spit out" cables from the nozzle on its head, really like a spider descending in the air.

The speed of Spider No. 50 is getting faster and faster. After reaching a speed of [-] meters per second, it will no longer accelerate, and will start to "spin silk" downward steadily.

Deng Lin explained that this speed is the limit speed for the synthesis of carbon nanotube cables inside the space spider, and it cannot be faster.

Yang Xi calculated that it would take seven days to reach the ground at this speed.

Hu Bo asked suspiciously: "This speed is too slow. It takes half a month to go back and forth to Earth, which is enough for a spaceship to go back and forth to Jupiter."

Everyone laughed when they heard the words, and Lin Wei explained to him, "This speed is the speed of a space spider. In the future, the speed of the space elevator will not be slower than that of the aerospace plane, that is, it will reach the space station from the ground in an hour. "

Hu Bo still doesn't understand why the speed of the space elevator can be so fast, Yang Xi said: "The elevator cabin in our sky ladder will run in a sealed vacuum channel, relying on the electromagnetic force of the coil in the channel, it can easily make the elevator cabin reach 100 kilometers per second."

"If it didn't take half the time to accelerate and decelerate, the time would be even less!"

Zhong Cheng made a vivid analogy. This is actually the barrel of an electromagnetic gun with a length of 3 kilometers, except that it fires the elevator cabin.

Only then did Hu Bo suddenly realize that this electromagnetic gun is really big enough!
But then expressed concern about the amount of work.

Lin Wei said with a smile that the acceleration coil will not be laid for 3 kilometers, and no one can afford such a large amount of coil usage.

Moreover, such a long acceleration coil channel is enough to accelerate the elevator ship to close to one-tenth of the speed of light, so it is completely unnecessary.

The passage of the space elevator only has more than 100 kilometers of acceleration coils in the first and last parts of it, and a kilometer coil every [-] kilometers to maintain the speed.

This amount of work is completely within the tolerance of Red Star Company.

After a short rest, everyone continued to work and launched the other seven space spiders into space.

Seeing the sprawling space spiders disappearing into the air with eight cables, Lin Wei asked Deng Lin how long the raw materials carried by the space spiders could last.

Deng Lin said that the soil material loaded by the space spider at one time can only be made into a carbon nanotube cable with a length of 3000 kilometers.

At a speed of 50 meters per second, it will stop for 16.7 hours of operation.

Therefore, Zhaixing and Lanyue have to take turns to replenish the space spiders with raw materials and the propellant propelled by Zhu Rong.

The two aerospace planes will make frequent trips to and from space until the first elevator cabin is put into use.

They also provide delivery tasks for other construction materials, and the schedule is very tight.

Originally, if there were four aerospace planes, the situation would be much better, but the space ladder project started earlier than expected, and the third and fourth aerospace planes have not yet been completed.

Zhong Cheng and others returned to Lanyue, checked the operation of eight space spiders in the command center, and then prepared to return to the ground.

Zhou Hu followed them back, while Liu Yuzhu and Deng Lin stayed in space with replacement engineers.

September 7 at eight o'clock in the evening.

The asterisk dropped from the sky and returned to Zabuye Airport, Plateau City, where it started.

Shocking cheers erupted on the Star Reacher, and the crew embraced each other and shed tears of excitement.

After 251 days away, they returned to the embrace of Mother Earth.

This whimsical star-seeking operation has come to a successful conclusion!
Surrounded by everyone, Zhong Cheng stepped off the star-seeking ship, and they were greeted by countless spotlights at the airport and thousands of people from Red Star Company and all walks of life in the Federation.

Let Zhong Cheng and others deeply feel that they ended their lonely space journey and returned to human society.

……

After finishing the grand welcome ceremony and settling down the other crew members on the Zhaixing, it was already 12 o'clock in the middle of the night when Zhong Cheng and others rushed back to Beishan.

Zhong Cheng asked Zhou Hu, Yang Xi, and Lin Wei to go home to reunite with their families first, and we will talk about what's going on tomorrow.

He came to his villa with 9528 and 9529, and he felt a sense of being close to home.

It has only been more than half a year since I left the earth, and I feel as if I have passed a lifetime. Is this an illusion of time and space?
He didn't know if the family had rested, and opened the door carefully.

As a result, the earnest eyes of the parents came into my eyes, Ye Wenxin and her father-in-law and mother-in-law were on the right, and Yang Shuzhen and her daughter Lu Yue were on the left.

Zhong Cheng excitedly greeted his family one by one and responded to their greetings.

Suddenly, he found a familiar figure behind Ye Wenxin, and he immediately became vigilant.

"Alicia!"

Zhong Cheng yelled and was about to rush forward.

As a result, Ye Wenxin stretched out her hand to stop him, while Alicia carefully hid behind Ye Wenxin, lay on Ye Wenxin's shoulder, and stuck out her tongue at him.

Zhong Cheng was a little confused for a moment, unable to understand the situation.

Mother Zhong glared at him reproachfully, "What are you doing yelling, don't scare the child!"

Zhong Cheng smiled wryly, you call this powerful and cold-blooded genetic warrior a child?

But seeing Alicia's harmless appearance to humans and animals now, he let go of the idea of ​​asking why now.

After letting the four old people sit down on the sofa, Zhong Cheng, Ye Wenxin, and Yang Shuzhen also sat aside, and Lu Yue pulled Alicia to watch cartoons.

Zhong Cheng roughly talked about his experience of going to Ceres and capturing asteroids. In fact, he has been sending back videos during this period, but everyone wants to hear him talk about it again.

Then he asked about his family's situation. Zhong Xin was studying at Red Star University of Technology and lived in the school. Zhong Yi did well in the mech training base and passed the first-year screening in early July.

After chatting for an hour, Zhong Cheng saw that it was getting late, so he asked the four old people to go back to their room to rest and leave him alone.

Watching the old people leave, Zhong Cheng looked at Ye Wenxin and then at Alicia.

Ye Wenxin turned her head and asked Alicia and Lu Yue to play in the small living room. Alicia sweetly agreed and pulled Lu Yue past.

Zhong Cheng said dissatisfiedly to Ye Wenxin: "Wenxin, you know who she is, why did you bring her home, how dangerous it is!"

Seeing Yang Shuzhen laughing aside, Zhong Cheng gave her a strange look, Yang Shuzhen waved her hand quickly, "It's none of my business!"

Ye Wenxin sighed, and said in a low voice, "This child Alicia is very pitiful, let me tell you from the beginning!"

It turned out that after Zhong Cheng brought Alicia back from the moon last October, he handed her over to Qin Wenyu.

Qin Wenyu discovered an amazing fact from Alicia's blood sample. Alicia looks fifteen, sixteen or even eighteen or nineteen years old, but her actual age is only three years old.

That is to say, her body cells and tissues existed for only 3 years at the longest.

Except for the obedience to specific personnel orders and the trained killing skills instilled in his mind, it is completely a blank sheet of paper.

"Clone?"

Zhong Cheng was taken aback. Only human cloning can explain this situation, and it is the most extreme cloning technology that uses genetic technology to artificially and quickly create a mature human being.

Human cloning technology has always been a scientific research field that is forbidden in human society, because it is too contrary to ethics and morals.

This kind of clone has no childhood or youth at all, and it is difficult to be called a real human being.

They are just industrial products mass-produced in biotechnology workshops.

There is absolutely no bottom line for Xingwang Company!
