I Have a Little Black Hole

As for the manufacturing work, Lei Tiantang is basically not involved now. Kuafu's current manufacturing capabilities are strong enough. All the three spaceships to be tested, a total of 6 Kuafu, took less than two months. It's done. If he made it, the test work could have been carried out long ago.

However, the spacecraft they want to test is mainly to verify whether the relevant design and the technology used are reasonable, and also to test whether the performance of the products manufactured by industry can cope with the complex environment in the universe.

These data need to be verified by experiments before they can be confirmed, so this time, only two spacecraft were built for this test, and they did not follow their usual standard test process of manufacturing at least four at a time.

Moreover, not all systems of the three spacecraft tested this time are fully equipped, because some components do not need to be tested, and some have been verified by the laboratory on the space station. In order to save time, These components are not installed.

After all, this test is also the first test. There is no need to make it so complicated. After the test is over, I don’t know how many places need to be changed. The more components are installed, the more troublesome it will be to change. These do not need to be tested It is not too late to install the components for testing until the design is roughly finalized.

Do you think the shapes of the three spaceships we designed are a bit low? After arriving at the new underground base specially built for spaceships, Lei Tiantang saw six spaceships quietly sitting on the ground. Spaceship, he still couldn't help but complain.

Indeed, the three spaceships in front of them look nothing like the spaceships in those sci-fi movies. Except for the solidity of industrial manufacturing, the appearance has no aesthetics at all.

These three spaceships adopt two design schemes. One is an aircraft-like spaceship manufactured as a whole, except that it does not have the wings of an aircraft. Instead of wings, four can be 360 ​​degrees forward and backward, and 120 degrees left and right. Rotating oversized ion engine.

Such a design can make the spacecraft fly more flexibly in space. After all, because there is no air resistance in space, it is very difficult for the spacecraft to change direction or decelerate urgently during flight, so The thruster design can better complete these operations.

Of course, in order to have better propulsive acceleration, there is also a larger ion engine at the tail of the spacecraft to provide more thrust.

Of course, the thrusters on all types of spacecraft use ion engines as the main thrusters, because such thrusters are the most cost-effective, and it is unrealistic to use hydrogen-oxygen or other chemical fuels for long-distance space flights. of.

Resources such as hydrogen and oxygen are very important things in spaceships. Astronauts cannot survive without oxygen. Hydrogen-oxygen synthesis water is also a necessity for astronauts, and it is also a necessity for plants on the spacecraft. Such an important thing Of course it can't be used as fuel for such a waste!

The most important thing is that the propulsion effect of chemical fuel is not ideal. The specific impulse is much worse than the ion engine. Of course, Lei Tiantang and the others will not choose this kind of fuel engine. Besides, he and Kuafu also re-optimized and designed a new one. The more powerful ion engine was used for the initial tests without any problems.

As for the engine with stronger power in the future, that one will be optimized and upgraded slowly in the follow-up research. Anyway, the research work of the spacecraft cannot be accomplished overnight.

The remaining two spacecraft are designed in combination, but the design of these two is completely different.

The first one uses a spaceship design similar to the one in Interstellar. Of course, Lei Tiantang's design can't be exactly the same as the spaceship design in the movie, but it uses its combination. Body design, and design that uses rotation to gain gravity.

After all, if the research and development of their artificial gravity system cannot be completed in a short period of time in the future, they can only use spacecraft of this design, because astronauts can work in a zero-gravity environment for a short period of time, but if they continue for several years Even working in a zero-gravity environment for longer periods of time, their bodies will definitely not be able to take it.

Therefore, in order to verify whether this technology is feasible, Kuafu and Lei Tiantang still designed such a spaceship for experimentation, although they were not very optimistic about such a design, after all, such a design is really dangerous to navigate in the harsh universe. too big.

You see, even the rotating spaceship with its own shield in Space Traveler almost collapsed after an accident. If it weren't for the protagonist's ferocious operation, the people in the ship would be farting. .

It can be seen from this design that everyone subconsciously thinks that such a design is unreliable, but such a design may still be needed by the company in a short period of time, so it is not a big deal to study it by the way.

After all, for the company's Mars colonization plan, the company's spacecraft design department has also carried out initial design work for this type of spacecraft. They just borrowed this design for an experiment, and it didn't take much effort. Wouldn't it be better if there were some unexpected gains during the experiment?

Although the remaining one is also designed in a combination way, this one is actually more inclined to a type similar to a modular design.

The whole spaceship is composed of 12 components with different functions and the core component in the center. From the outside, it looks like a cuboid. It is no wonder that Lei Tiantang wants to complain about the ugly design of the spaceship.

12 components with different functions mainly have different functions in the general direction. Some key functions are available for each component, such as propellers, life support systems, food and water, including various escape systems and other functions. But every component has it.

The advantage of this design is that in the event of irresistible dangers, such as catastrophic dangers such as asteroid impact, the components of the spacecraft that are not damaged can still escape from the damaged spacecraft smoothly, providing maximum safety for the lives of astronauts. protection.

This kind of escape design is much better than using the small escape cabin alone. The design of the escape cabin can only maintain the life of the astronauts for a maximum of one month. If there is no spacecraft to rescue during this time, it is still Get cool.
