My Black Tech Shelter

After accepting five people into his research team, Lu Chen took the five people to the high energy physics laboratory of the space station.

Take out an electronic document and send it to five people.

"This is the photon power station I am currently studying, studying how to use photons in sunlight to convert electrical energy."

Photon, also called light quantum, is the carrier of electromagnetic radiation and has energy, momentum and mass.

According to Lu Chen's idea, if photons can be used to generate electricity, the photon energy will be converted into electrical energy, and the momentum will drive the turbine to operate and convert into electrical energy.

If Lu Chen's idea can succeed, then Venus Airport and the lunar base will not have to worry about power consumption.

This idea came about after the construction of the nanocore energy harvester was completed.

After observing the operating principle of the collector, Lu Chen knew that it collects special energy in sunlight, so he thought that if photon-electric energy conversion could be achieved, a large amount of electric energy should be generated.

Through this idea, I will also study it in my daily research.

A recent experiment showed that Lu Chen's idea can be realized.

In a recent experiment on the conversion of photons into electrical energy, Lu Chen successfully converted a photon into electrical energy. After the conversion was completed, the electrical energy released reached one-tenth of the fusion energy of the same level.

So taking this as a clue, Lu Chen has been able to achieve photoelectric conversion under laboratory conditions.

It just so happens that these five people are also studying this aspect this time. Although they are only studying some forms or properties of photons, with their own pre-research data, they should be able to complete the industrial transformation of related technologies.

After seeing Lu Chen's experimental data, the five people at the scene also admired Lu Chen's big imagination. The key is that there are still experimental results.

Sure enough, people are different, and this also allowed them to see the gap between them and Lu Chen.

After studying the information for a while, the five people also gave their answers. If they continue to study according to the data given by Lu Chen, the results will be available in about three months.

Lu Chen also nodded, allowing them to go ahead and do it. Currently, there is a complete laboratory on the space station, but the laboratory on the moon has not yet been fully constructed.

So this time we can only go to the moon with the remaining people, and these five people will temporarily stay on the space station for research.

After the laboratory construction of the lunar base is completed in the later period, it can be moved to the lunar surface for experiments.

And what these five people don't know is that all the ones used by Lu Chen have been replaced by quantum supercomputers, and there happens to be one in the Venus Space Station.

So when they started researching, they found that the computing speed of the laboratory computers was too fast, and there were many robot assistants and artificial intelligence assistance.

With the help of these hardware, these five people quickly entered the research state,

Lu Chen looked at the photon research team that was on track, nodded with satisfaction, and returned to the living area to rest.

This project is a test for these five people. If these five people can no longer complete the research on photon power generation equipment as expected when they already have so much experimental data, then it proves that these five people are not suitable for this project. Research,

But if the research can be completed, then Lu Chen will focus on training five people to continue their studies in high-energy physics.

Jiang Bowen also communicated with Longke Academy. After all, his team was missing five people. However, Longke Academy did not object. After all, there was really no resources to invest in this area. Entering Lu Chen's place was considered a good result.

And just after Lu Chen and others arrived at the space station again, the other three countries on Blue Star were also very upset.

If the Dragon Kingdom is said to be a country in the sky, it can be said that it is the power of a whole country, but if you can own four spaceships and such a large space station alone, it is not scientific in any way.

So after learning about Lu Chen, the other three countries simultaneously expressed their voices internationally, hoping that Lu Chen could come to their country to conduct research.

And he also offered very high conditions, but when Long Guo found out, he just smiled and said,

After all, the conditions provided were not as good as those provided by the Dragon Kingdom, but even so, Lu Chen did not go to the Dragon Kingdom official to conduct research, but studied alone.

Therefore, the Dragon Kingdom watched silently, but secretly stepped up some actions and carried out tight defense in the area where Lu Chen was located to prevent the Stars and Stripes Kingdom incident from happening again.

——

Stars and Stripes, Houston Rocket Launch Site,

Stimulated by the Dragon Kingdom and with strong financial support, a company's Dragon spacecraft was moved here for launch.

Due to the decommissioning of the International Space Station, among the space stations currently in orbit, in addition to Dragon Kingdom’s Tiangong Space Station and Lu Chen’s Venus Airport,

This time, the Stars and Stripes Kingdom spent a lot of money and directly prepared multiple rocket launches to send the basic components of the space station and three astronauts into space.

Then after completing the docking of various cabins of the space station, the three astronauts will stay on the space station for a month.

A month later, the ground launch site will launch another batch of rockets to expand the space station and replace the three astronauts.

At this moment, Stars and Stripes TV Station is broadcasting the launch live, and Dragon Kingdom is also broadcasting it simultaneously.

Looking at the five towering rockets on the TV, the people of the Star-Spangled Kingdom were praising their country for being strong.

But here in the Dragon Kingdom, things are more cheerful.

"Still using rockets, it's an antique"

"I crossed the river by touching the Star-Spangled Kingdom, and finally reached the other side ahead of schedule, and by the way, I touched him bald,"

“It’s not just reaching the other side, we have to dig a deep ditch to get out.”

…

But these are all discussions within Longguo’s own network.

Lu Chen was also watching the live broadcast. Looking at the live broadcast, the reporter interviewed the person in charge of the rocket launch.

"Mr. Marco, can you tell us about the performance of the rocket launched this time?"

"The rocket we launched this time is an improved version of Ares. The payload in low-Earth orbit has reached 120 tons and the synchronous transfer orbit has reached 70 tons.

The entire rocket is divided into three stages, of which the first and second stages can be recycled, which can effectively reduce costs.

At the same time, according to the design, the three-stage rocket will serve as the propulsion system and refueling station of the space station.

After we launch the space station components and reach space, the three-level boost will allow the space station to complete the orbit change and reach the Blue Star synchronous orbit.

At the same time, we will also conduct launch missions regularly. Thanks to technological breakthroughs in artificial intelligence projects and robotics projects, our country has fully entered the era of Industry 4.0, and the era of visual automation has arrived.

This ensures that we can manufacture five such rockets per month, and I believe we will soon be able to build a new large-scale space station."

Lu Chen watched the live broadcast and felt that the Stars and Stripes Kingdom had a strong foundation. He said that without the ion engine provided by itself, the Dragon Kingdom would still be in the rocket age.

After Stars and Stripes gave up on the high cost of the original Saturn V, it was soon able to come up with a cheap rocket with a similar load. This kind of heritage cannot be caught up in decades.

After seeing the final countdown in the live broadcast, I waited patiently for the launch to end.

After seeing that all five rockets were successfully launched, Lu Chen also turned off the live broadcast.

Now there has been a gap of several generations between myself and the Star-Spangled Kingdom in terms of aerospace. Not only in terms of flight methods, but also in terms of energy utilization, the Star-Spangled Kingdom is far behind.

Watching the live broadcast this time is just to understand the space progress of the Star-Spangled Kingdom. After understanding it, you should go about your own affairs first.

At the Stars and Stripes Launch Site, after it was confirmed that all the rockets were successfully launched, everyone present cheered.

The space station components launched this time weigh a total of 500 tons, including the living module where the astronauts are located, and the other four are the orbit module, service module, docking module and special equipment module.

Providing power to the space station through its own solar cell wings,

Through ground command of these and the satellites in orbit, after confirming that the five cabins had been successfully docked, the space station entered autonomous operation.

And the three astronauts are about to start a month-long life in space.

Just after the launch site announced that the launch mission was completed, the three people in outer space saw a formation of ten Starry Sky One spacecraft flying past them in the distance, heading for the moon.

The three of them felt that Long Guo did this on purpose because going to the moon instead of their side would consume a lot of unnecessary fuel.

However, the three people did not know that Longguo used an ion engine, which did not require chemical energy fuel and could be charged directly.

At Venus Airport, after watching the launch mission of Stars and Stripes, Lu Chen no longer paid attention to this matter.

After confirming his departure tomorrow, Lu Chen informed Jiang Bowen to prepare for departure.

Jiang Bowen was also paying attention to the rocket launch of the Stars and Stripes Kingdom. After receiving the notice from Lu Chen, he stopped paying attention and called his students to go back and pack up and set off on time tomorrow morning.

The next morning, after a group of people had a space breakfast, they took the prepared spacecraft and started heading to the moon base.

In order to see the space station of the Stars and Stripes Kingdom, Lu Chen asked Zero to "drop by" to take a look and observe.

Zero means received. After modifying the route, we started to set off.

The people on the spaceship were all elites. After feeling that the flight direction was wrong, they also knew that they were going to pass by the Stars and Stripes Space Station to say hello.

It immediately aroused everyone's interest.

Soon, the spaceship formation approached the space station,

Looking at the small and pitiful space station in front of them, these researchers quickly lost interest.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. After staying at Lu Chen’s Venus Airport, seeing this small space station again makes me feel crowded.

After the people on the space station saw another spacecraft formation passing by, they felt that the three of them were just like being in a zoo for people to visit, and their mentality was a bit broken.

Fortunately, they were all selected after thousands of attempts, and they quickly adjusted their mentality and reported the two incidents to the ground command center.

After the ground command center found out, it was helpless and could only protest through the official.

Long Guo’s answer was that it was caused by an error in the orbit setting of the spacecraft in the first place, and he promised that it would not happen again later.

As for Lu Chen, that is a personal behavior of a citizen and has nothing to do with the country.

When Stars and Stripes heard this answer, they could only endure it silently. At the same time, they increased their research and development of aerospace technology, hoping to regain their position.
