Great Power Technology.

Chapter 283 A Brand New Data Node
Under Ye Zhou's remote guidance, the Gongger Peak base finally completed the final deployment, all personnel were in place, and the Six Nose Project officially entered the stable operation stage.

The next thing they have to do is to reproduce the prototype of the topological quantum computer one by one according to the drawings and documents.

This project team has brought together the strongest forces in the field of quantum computing in China, including not only Chen Ping in the field of topological quantum computing, but also Pan Jianwei, Zhu Xiaobo, and Peng Peng, who have created the 62-bit "Zu Chongzhi" superconducting quantum computing experts. Chengzhi's team, and all these people, will be closed in the isolated Kunlun Mountains for more than 6 months, in order to complete this technology that will completely change the world at the fastest speed.

This is another extremely urgent task, but they have no choice.

Because the window period is too short, as long as the research and development time can be shortened by one month or even one day, it also means that we can solve the calculation one day in advance, and the amount of data that can be obtained in this day can almost be described as immeasurable .

The pressure on Ye Zhou suddenly increased. He is the only one who has an overall understanding of topological quantum computers. Therefore, in almost every step of the experiment, as long as he encounters theoretical or practical difficulties, he is required to review and resolve them. answer.

The original regular life was broken again, and the high-intensity work rhythm was restarted. For that definite and extremely bright goal, everyone will do their best.

Thousands of kilometers away from Kunlun Mountain is the Xichang Space Launch Base.

With 7 hours left before the launch window, the inspection of the mission sub-system has been completed. Yan Wanhong, the commander of cryogenic power, closed the test valve for the last time, checked the leakage rate of all booster fuel pressure measurement check valves, and ruled out all previous launches. past minefields.

China's aerospace history is a history of exploration in which we cross the river by feeling the stones. During this process, we have not made mistakes or experienced major losses, but every time, the astronauts have learned more from it. experience, and then fed these experiences back into the next launch, such optimizations time after time finally brought about the current results.

After all the operations were completed, Yan Wanhong put on the special noise-canceling pickup earphones and started circling the rocket. He wanted to judge whether there was an air leak in the rocket through the sound.

When the Tiantong-[-] satellite was launched before, they had encountered the problem of gas leakage from the hydrogen vent. In order to solve this problem, the launch team replaced unreliable parts overnight, but this replacement led to a series of follow-up incidents. The butterfly effect of connectors, sockets, and pipelines almost leads to missing the launch window.

But this time, the largest Long March launch vehicle in our country so far is in good working condition.

After turning around twice, Yan Wanhong picked up the walkie-talkie and reported to the launch headquarters:
"The rocket is in good condition and it is confirmed that it has reached launch status."

"Received, all pre-launch site inspections are complete, please return to the command post."

"Understood, return to the headquarters."

Yan Wanhong left the launch area, and in the sky not far away, the first weather balloon had already been released.

At this time, in the headquarters, the analysis of the characteristics of the thermal properties of the atmosphere is in progress.

"All units report the latest data, does the atmosphere meet the launch window requirements?"

"Meet the launch window requirements, and real-time monitoring is in progress."

"What about the external environmental control system?"

"Report, everything is normal, and it is expected to start removing in 1 hour."

"External subsystem test preparation."

"Received, external subsystem test ready, power unit preheat ready, onboard component system calibration ready."

"Prepare to start dismantling the first-level channel platform."

"Received, the removal process of the first-level channel platform is ready, and the operators are in place."

A series of tense and orderly passwords were issued continuously. Hao Li, the 01 commander who was in charge of this launch, looked calm. He watched the preparation reports of various systems popping up on the commander's big screen, and breathed a sigh of relief.

So far, this significant launch is still going well. As long as the final launch preparation process is completed, this rocket will send the core components of the space-based laser anti-missile system it carries into space.

There, the payload module of the rocket will be docked with the Tiangong space station, and a new experimental module will be added outside the "Wentian" experimental module, named "Sky Survey".

This experimental cabin will carry the command work for the entire space-based anti-missile system in the future, echoing the core warhead launched by Jiuquan, and jointly forming a complete space-based anti-missile system.

Seeing his expression, Hu Xuewen, the general commander of the power system, asked curiously:
"Master, are you not nervous?"

Hao Li smiled and replied:
"Nervousness is definitely nervous. In fact, it's not just this time. Every time the rocket is about to go to the sky, I will be nervous. However, in this position, you must learn to control your emotions."

"You can be nervous, but you must not be so nervous that your judgment will be affected. Speaking of which, I will test you by the way. It is now 5 hours before the launch. What is the preparation process we are entering now?"

Hu Xuewen glanced at the commander-in-chief's screen and replied:
"What I'm doing now is the calibration of the inertial navigation fault-tolerant unit—Master, why did this step start so soon? I remember that the calibration was performed after 3 hours before."

"Very well, you have learned to ask yourself questions, which is what I planned to test you. The answer is, because this is a calibration."

"We are going to carry out the docking of the experimental cabin this time. Both the launch accuracy and the docking accuracy are higher than before. Therefore, from now on, we will perform a total of three calibrations. This is the first time."

"After the calibration is completed, there will be the calibration of the auxiliary positioning system and the test of the auxiliary power system. Only after all the steps are completed without any problems can the final evaluation of 'launch' or 'not launch'."

"Most of this decision is made automatically by the system, but even if there is no problem with the system assessment, Commander 01 is the final decision-maker, with heavy responsibilities and great pressure."

"This pressure is borne by me now, and in a few years, it will be borne by you. Therefore, from now on, you must practice."

"Not just practicing technique, but also practicing psychology."

After listening to Hao Li's words, Hu Xuewen nodded solemnly.

"Okay, don't gossip, the aisle platform of the aviation cabin will start to be dismantled immediately, you go to watch the progress, that's your old job, as soon as you find any problems, report to me immediately."

"understand!"

The countdown to launch is 3 hours, the secondary calibration of inertial navigation is over, and the navigation test begins.

The countdown was 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the C-band signal transmitter was activated.

The countdown was 1 hour and 45 minutes, the safety inspection of the launch pad was completed, and the aircraft stabilization system was retracted.

With a countdown of 40 minutes, the flight termination system was activated.

The countdown was 4 minutes, the solid rocket ignition engine was started, the power of the aviation cooling fan was terminated, and the onboard data recording system began to operate.

The countdown is 20 seconds, and the solid rocket motor vector control gimbal test is completed.

After counting down for 15 seconds, the valve of the mobile launch platform is opened, and the water flow starts to wash the entire platform.

Hao Li took a deep breath, picked up the microphone, and said:

"The countdown to launch begins."

"10, 9, 8, 7"

"3, 2, 1. Fire up! Take off!"

In the distance, the engine of the Long March carrier rocket ignited loudly, and majestic flames spewed out from the tail of the engine, and the rocket began to lift off at a slow and steady speed!

"Xichang, program turn."

"Xichang, optical tracking is normal."

"Qingshan, the telemetry signal is normal, and the radar tracking is normal."

"Dongfeng, optics, USB, radar tracking normal, telemetry signal normal."

Everyone is nervously watching the flight status of the rocket, successive passwords are sent out continuously, video signals are sent back to the latest images outside the rocket, the booster is separated, the fairing is thrown off, and the secondary main engine is shut down.
Everything is going on as planned.

20 minutes after the launch, the load compartment entered the predetermined orbit, the separation of the ship and the arrow was completed, the solar panels were deployed, and the astronauts on the space station sent back a tracking signal, and they were about to enter the pre-docking preparations.

Four hours after launch, the payload module approached the space station and entered the deceleration process.

Six hours after the launch, the rendezvous and docking was completed, the astronauts entered the "Sky Survey" experimental module, and the space-based laser anti-missile command system was officially turned on.

At this moment, a brand new data node lit up on the large data link screens of all ships in the maritime fleet.

And the location of this node is at an altitude of 400 kilometers!
