Chapter 267: Flying Apsaras

Qiongdao County is a special county in Nanyue Province, because the entire county is Qiongdao, and it is also Qiongdao National Forest Park and Qiongdao Tropical and Subtropical Ecological Reserve.There are only two cities established in Qiongdao County, Yecheng City and Lucheng City.Yecheng City is the seat of the county, but it is mainly responsible for administrative management, so its prosperity is far less than that of Lucheng City.Lucheng is the most popular tourist city in China and the most popular summer tourist destination in Asia.

There are two ways to go to Qiongdao County, one is to go to Yecheng City from the Qiongzhou Submarine Train Tunnel, or take a plane to Qionghua International Airport in Lucheng City.Since the entire Qiongdao is an international forest park and ecological protection area, vehicles other than electric vehicles are prohibited on the entire island.Yecheng City and Lucheng City are connected by the Qiongdao high-speed maglev train on the west side of Qiongdao. This train runs every hour from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, which is cheap.

Of course, as the southernmost big island of Cathay, it is also an important military base.In Zibei County, not far from Lucheng City, there is a military camp. The entire county is either a soldier or a military dependent.At this time, Sun Ping was on a business trip in Zibei County, and Sun Ping was really depressed about this trip.Since Lucheng City is an international tourist city, it is naturally inconvenient for Sun Ping to show up.

As a result, Sun Ping arrived at Qiongdao Railway Station in Yecheng City through the Qiongzhou Submarine Train Tunnel in the middle of the night, then took an electric car to a small military airport on the outskirts of Yecheng City, and then took a helicopter to Zibei County.Zibei County is surrounded by hills, and Qiongdao retains a large amount of virgin rainforest, so the secrecy here is very high.And Zibei County also has several good ports on Qiongdao, and this port naturally became a naval base.This naval base is an important port for the Sinian Navy to assist several front-line bases in the South China Sea and the Western Pacific, so its importance is quite high.

However, Sun Ping knows that the most important military facility in Zibei County is not the naval base. It can be said that this naval base, the nearby air force base and the garrison in Zibei County all serve this purpose.The most important place in Zibei County is the Lingxiao Aerospace Center where Sun Ping is located at this time, and the Lingxiao Research Institute of Aurora Kingdom for aerospace technology and outer space research is also located here.The purpose of Sun Ping's business trip this time is to witness the launch of the main control module of the Tiangong space station and to evaluate the progress of the Tiangong project.

The Tiangong project is the first step of the space program proposed by Sun Ping. It will be the largest and most fully equipped space station built by Shuilanxing so far.The completed Tiangong space capsule will be radial, with a main control module and a communication module in the middle.The core main control module will be the brain and heart of Tiangong, and there will be two escape spaceships on the south side of the main control module, and the north side will be connected with the traffic module.

The traffic module is actually for docking with the spacecraft of different countries. Because the interfaces of the spacecraft in Russia, the European Union and the United States are different, a traffic module is simply made as a universal interface.According to the design, the traffic module can dock with up to four spacecraft at the same time.

The channels and brackets extending from the main control cabin will connect with six functional cabins, including four experimental cabins and two living cabins.In addition, the entire Tiangong space station can also be connected to other functional modules in the future, but it depends on the specific needs of the future.

As a new generation of space station, the living module of Tiangong space station can generate a certain gravity through self-rotation, which is equivalent to about half of the earth's gravity, allowing astronauts to live in space for a long time without suffering from weightlessness syndrome.Because of gravity, astronauts will have real beds on the space station instead of "standing up" to sleep.At the same time, because of the use of the new ecological cycle system, astronauts can already enjoy a monthly bath instead of using atomized water for washing.

"Dr. Sun, thank you very much for coming to Lingxiao Research Institute." Just as Sun Ping got off the helicopter, he saw Ma Tao, the deputy director of Lingxiao Research Institute. "The Tiangong Space Station, Guanghangong Lunar Base Station, and Mars Explorer interplanetary spacecraft that you presided over to design are all classics. I invite you this time to make a final inspection of the main control module of the Sky Space Station. "

"You're too polite." Sun Ping was rather humble about Ling Xiao Institute's praise.

Although my own design comes from the system, the important data still comes from years of research by Lingxiao Research Institute.It can be said that my own design stands on the shoulders of the giant Ling Xiao Research Institute.Besides, I just designed these things myself, and the person who actually made them was the Lingxiao Research Institute.

Under the leadership of Deputy Director Ma, Sun Ping and Deputy Director Ma got on an electric car.Since Qiongdao County is the largest electric vehicle consumption area in the country, the new electric vehicles that have just been launched with super batteries as the main power source have been fully distributed here.Compared with previous electric vehicles, the new electric vehicles have higher output power and longer battery life.Although it cannot be compared with professional off-road vehicles, the general field conditions are no longer difficult for new electric vehicles.

Lingxiao Aerospace Center is nearly two and a half hours' drive from Zibei County, and it needs to pass through a virgin rainforest in the middle.Because there are too many unknowns in the rainforest, even though this area has been explored by humans, the windows of the car are still closed.Suddenly, the original rainforest disappeared, replaced by a large number of industrialized buildings.

Lingxiao Aerospace Center is located in a flat land surrounded by mountains, and the entire center presents a north-south rectangle.To the north is a tall launch pad standing on the flat ground, and to the south is the control area, assembly area, and Lingxiao Research Institute, and the two sides are connected by wide roads.Like the Dawn Research Institute, many buildings in the Ling Xiao Research Institute are also underground.A nearby mountain was almost hollowed out, where the main building of the Ling Xiao Research Institute is located.Sun Ping was arranged by Deputy Director Ma to rest in the guest house for the night, and then started to check the work the next day.

Sun Ping carried an inspection device with him, which could collect a lot of data, which was somewhat similar to the tricorder used in "Star Trek".The data collected by the tricorder is transmitted through the special satellite of the Suguang Research Institute, and all the data is encrypted by 256 bits, which is basically impossible to be deciphered.After the data is collected by Sun Ping, it will be sent to the Eastern Sage computer located in the Dawn Research Institute for analysis.Seeing Sun Ping's instrument, Deputy Director Ma was quite envious.

However, after Sun Ping finished all inspections, he said: "This set of inspection equipment is actually not complicated. The main reason is that data analysis is very troublesome. The Eastern Sage has a special system for analysis, but it still needs to be continuously upgraded by me. So this This piece of equipment is not of high commercial value, so I just use it as an analysis aid. I have checked the entire main control cabin, and it fully meets the original design requirements. I think tomorrow's launch must be very smooth. The deputy director should prepare champagne for celebration."

"That's for sure!" Deputy Director Ma is very confident about the Magic Arrow D transport rocket.

Shenjian is the unified name for the transportation rockets of the Cathay Kingdom. Type A is the earliest design, and has basically withdrawn from the use sequence; Type B is the current main force, and together with the improved Type B, it has become an important role in the international satellite launch market; Type C The D-type is mainly used for manned launches, so there are many safety guarantees and escape equipment, and the design process is also the most complicated; the D-type is used for heavy equipment launches, so the cost is quite expensive.At the same time, Lingxiao Laboratory is still developing the E-type rocket, which is the so-called recoverable rocket.Because the E-type is still in testing, it will not be used for official launches for the time being.

The next day, the sturdy D-shaped rocket was leaning against the launch pad.Today's weather is fine and perfect for a rocket launch.At this time, everyone was waiting for the best opportunity, and Sun Ping was allowed to enter the main control room.At ten o'clock in the morning, the rocket was counting down to prepare for ignition, and when the countdown ended, the arrow shot straight into the sky in flames.

Subsequently, each monitoring station and monitoring ship sent a message, indicating that the magic arrow is flying in the predetermined orbit.When the first and second rockets separated, Sun Ping was completely relieved.Now he only cares about whether the main control module can enter orbit according to the scheduled plan, as long as the orbit is successful, then everything will be over smoothly.The remaining components will be launched one after another in the next year. At the same time, the Dongfeng Space Center in Suzhou will also launch the Phoenix space shuttle to launch astronauts into space to assemble these components.So according to the current progress estimate, Sun Ping thinks that the Tiangong space station will be ready for official use in the second half of next year.

The successful launch of the main control module does not mean that Sun Ping's mission is completed. Sun Ping still has a mission to come to discuss the site selection and assembly methods of the Guanghangong Moon Base and the Zhurong Mars Base.Regarding location selection, Sun Ping used the Eastern Sage to hack the space center databases of the United States, the European Union, and Russia. Combining the existing domestic data, the Eastern Sage has already identified several locations.Then, according to the launch difficulty and other conditions, there are only a few locations recommended by the Eastern Sage.

"The condition for this site selection is that our launch cost should be low, and at the same time, it should be beneficial to the life and scientific research work of future moon landing astronauts, and it should also be suitable for the return capsule to be able to actually launch and escape. Combining many factors, here are the ideal few locations at present. a location."

Sun Ping sent the site selection to everyone, and also marked the advantages and disadvantages of these sites one by one.

"As for the assembly method, it is a bit similar to our sky station. We will drop the components from the orbit of the moon or Mars, and then the automatic walking function of these components will realize the movement and assembly. At the same time, we will also launch some engineering robots. These robots will On the one hand, it will assist the automatic establishment of the base, and on the other hand, it will also be a helper for the astronauts on the base in the future. The final acceptance work will be carried out by our landing astronauts."

Sun Ping's proposal started everyone's discussion. In a sense, Sun Ping's proposal is the method with the least cost and the least risk.Because there are a series of unmanned landing exploration activities in Cathay, now it is necessary to expand the exploration equipment so that they have the function of living; and the combination of these components basically does not require the participation of astronauts, thus avoiding the long-term work on alien planets. risk.

Fortunately, the success of the humanoid robot has enabled the automation technology of the Cathay Kingdom to realize the automatic combination of these devices.What's more, Sun Ping still has some black technologies that he hasn't brought out. When the time comes, Sun Ping will use a suitable method to integrate them.

After several meetings and discussions, Sun Ping's plan basically became an action plan, and everyone planned to start implementing it according to the action plan.

Sun Ping left Lingxiao Laboratory and returned to Shuguang Laboratory. After upgrading the system automation program, the annual Spring Festival came again.And more importantly, the results of the joint entrance examination of Sun Ping's three disciples were also released.
