Half-immortal civilization

The heavy test equipment was placed on a steel ingot weighing 300 tons and fixed with 300 tons: According to calculations, during the process of electromagnetic pulses moving the space, powerful forces will be generated, and these forces cannot be calculated temporarily, but It is estimated that it may be as high as about 30 tons.The metal needle itself has a weight of about [-] tons, but it is obviously unable to resist the huge force that may be generated during the impact.The base is added to fix it, and to prevent the signal transmitting machine from being overturned due to excessive force during the test, causing unknown dangers in the test—it is already dangerous enough.

Huge low-lying crawler loaders move the gigantic test machinery into the hermetically sealed laboratory.It is connected to a group of physical batteries of Gaoshou Company through two arm-thick superconducting cables. This group of physical batteries is the size of a house and can store 10 billion kilowatt-hours of electrical energy.

The test is extremely dangerous and has to be disconnected from the grid to prevent events such as grid burnout.

Long Xinsheng talked boastfully, while the top executives of the expert company, including Zhang Jingyuan, were listening to the professor's lecture like elementary school students.But the fact is that such a communication technology is really enough to change the world.And the first to accept these technologies is the master company.

"Mr. Long, have you ever calculated, or roughly estimated, the approximate energy consumption after such a technology matures?" Liu Donghai, as one of the top 16 members of the master company, and Qi Fengwu are in charge of the master company's energy projects .Energy projects are also beginning to be tight; originally with physical batteries, everyone thought that they could at least meet the needs of development in space for 30 to [-] years; in fact, everyone found that the development of master companies is too fast, and the world is catching up. Also accelerating.In this case, the original physical battery technology is not enough.

Space machinery’s demand for energy has ranged from tens of thousands of kWh to millions of kWh, and then jumped to tens of millions of kWh, billions of kWh!Seeing that the communication technology developed by Long Xinsheng is another big consumer of electricity, Liu Donghai finally became anxious!I'll go, don't develop so fast, okay?
"Uh, it is estimated that 300 million kilowatt-hours of electricity will be used. If the test is successful, it will probably have a working time of about 1 minute. According to the current technology and compression acceleration technology, the pulse of about 1 minute can transmit about [-] words. words."

"With 300 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, you can only transmit more than [-] words?" Not only Liu Donghai's mouth twitched, but even Zhang Jingyuan was a little speechless.I know high-tech is expensive, but it's unreal to be so expensive.

"It takes a lot of energy to move the space." Long Xinsheng had to explain.In other words, this energy consumption is really a bit big, but what can it do!This is a theoretical technology that involves space. If it can be successful, it is already very good.

Li Changxing was in charge of the electronic information of the master company, and asked a key question, "Mr. Long, is it possible to transmit information such as videos and pictures through this technology?"

When it comes to this, Long Xinsheng is full of confidence: "The most direct transmission can only be sound; but other signal information is not impossible to transmit, but it may be necessary to set up translation. Just like the current electronic information technology, we A sequence of ten numbers from 0 to 9 can be sent, and then these signals are converted into sounds, pictures, videos, etc. by a compiler.

It's just that it's still in the early stages of the experiment, and we can only say with confidence that if this experiment is successful, we can come up with a machine capable of super-speed communication within half a month. space walkie-talkie.Although, such a machine may weigh as much as ten tons or more. "

"Not bad!" Zhang Jingyuan gave Long Xinsheng an affirmative answer when he heard this. He has worked very hard, and such technologies that he had never thought of before have succeeded, so don't be too demanding. "However, Mr. Long, this kind of technology is good, but we should have a higher goal. I hope to see a complete super-speed communication technology within the next year, which can realize the same functions as the current network on the earth.

As for energy, we will build larger space photovoltaic power plants or even space nuclear power plants if it doesn't work.Energy wise, you don't have to worry about it.Whether it's materials, energy, or even other support such as formations, as long as you need it, the headquarters will arrange it as soon as possible. "

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Long Xinsheng is sincerely convinced, and Zhang Jingyuan is indeed the same these days. The communication laboratory has not produced any output in the past two years, and even the theory is incomplete, but Zhang Jingyuan is still here. There is no abridged support, what is asked for.

"Team leader, the experiment has been prepared." At this time, an assistant in a white coat came to report the situation.

"Okay, let's start right away." After Long Xinsheng finished speaking, he greeted Zhang Jingyuan and others to the observation room, where everyone can observe the entire experiment process with the help of the camera.

There are actually hundreds of screens in the observation room. This is the first time that all senior executives of the master company entered this place, including Zhang Jingyuan.

"This is an ordinary camera, this is an infrared camera, this is a magnetic field camera - can directly observe the magnetic field, this is a gamma ray camera, this is an X-ray detector, this is an ultraviolet camera, this is a temperature detector, this This is a gravity field detector, this is a metal stress flaw detector, this is a radiation monitor, this is a flash catcher, this is an air pressure detector..."

The staff will introduce you one by one.A super-epochal scientific experiment, of course, cannot do without an advanced observation system.It's just that the on-site observation system is really complicated, even Zhang Jingyuan has to sigh with emotion for a while, the power of wisdom.

The human naked eye can only see 4% of the world; but we can observe almost 50% of the world with the help of various instruments!This is an amazing progress.Even practitioners are not necessarily stronger than the power of technology.

"Countdown: 10, 9, 8..."

Long Xinsheng has been staring at the screen tightly, and the specific implementation is of course for the real experts who are directly in charge of the research to implement it.Putting on a show can be done in ordinary things; but in rigorous scientific research, it is absolutely not allowed!
"1, 0! Start!"

Hum... At that moment, all the screens displayed different images, and at the same time, there seemed to be a little buzzing in the air.At the same time, at least half of the alarm bells in the observation room alarmed.

"Hold it for 1 minute! As long as you don't reach the limit, don't give up the experiment!" Long Xinsheng commanded calmly in the face of danger.

Some alarm bells turned from yellow to red, and some that had previously been flashing green started flashing yellow...

The buzzing sound disappeared, only the alarm bell rang loudly, and various effects continued to flash on the various screens.Ordinary light and shadow cameras see only a blurred metal needle with a flashing aperture; while other cameras detect various rays.

Suddenly, all the sounds stopped, because the set time of 1 minute had arrived, and all the screen displays were frozen at the last moment.Of course, this is just a display, and the detection has not stopped in fact, but the later data will be automatically recorded and entered into the hard disk.

"Oh oh oh!" All the super-speed communication researchers began to scream, and no one cared that there were more than 30 high-level executives of expert companies beside them.No carnival can not express the excitement in my heart.

And the receivers set up in space, whether they are in low-earth orbit, synchronous orbit, or the detectors on the space mirror 20 kilometers away, have all detected the signals here and have sent them back.

How many days and nights, how much suffering, finally crossed the most critical step.

It worked!This word does not need any adjectives to modify it.

Success!There were only these three words in the scene, and they gathered into a sea of ​​joy.
