Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology Chapter 1207

There are some things that you really can't do even with extra money, such as progress, which cannot be solved quickly with money and requires a lot of time.

In fact, the Americans have been clamoring to return to the moon since 2004, and have formulated a rough stage. They will have to send people to the moon by 2020 at the latest. But why is it still at this progress after 2025?

Lacking money, the U.S. monetary system and trading system are slowly being eroded by other rising forces, and its dominance is far less than it was in the 1960s and 1970s. In addition, there was really no market for this project and it was not profitable, so it was slowly shelved.

Restarting suddenly is equivalent to starting all over again. It will take a few months to get it done. Is it possible? Obviously impossible!

The person in charge of the project held a meeting with the top management of the United States. After being scolded, he held a meeting with his subordinates when he came back. He did not scold anyone. At least he had scientific knowledge, but his face was full of sadness and his hair was about to fall out.

"There are currently two main problems. The first is that the load capacity of the warehouse is seriously insufficient. The second problem is that there is no satellite orbiting the moon to check. Even a relay can reduce the difficulty a lot."

The United States has so many things to do at once. In addition to carrying people, the rocket also has to carry cargo, so there is simply no room for it. The necessary equipment can no longer be shrunk.

For example, planting soil, compressed air, fire extinguishing equipment, as well as detection, communication, and lighting systems. So many things are piled together, and there are two or three tons of scattered things!

Is there any equipment for going to the moon that is not heavy? For the sake of performance, no one dares to reduce the structure, and even needs to find a few more backup methods. If this one doesn't work, that one has to work, otherwise they will have to wait for death.

This is not over yet, we have to save some fuel for the return trip, right? If the fuel belt is not enough, how can we escape the gravity of the moon and reach the predetermined orbit and be captured by the gravity of the earth?

In this way, the self-esteem cannot be reduced at all.

Two or three tons doesn't sound like much? In fact, it is quite an exaggeration. A lunar exploration satellite weighs three tons when fully loaded. The new cargo warehouse being developed by Mao Xiong only has a load capacity of 700 kilograms. The United States has more than two tons of stuff, which is impossible to carry.

Another problem is also thorny, and that is the lunar relay satellite. It is not that the United States does not have satellites orbiting the moon, but those satellites have long exceeded their service life. Some of them sometimes work and sometimes do not work, some are not used for communication at all, and some are simply scrapped. Calculated in this way, the help to the moon landing plan is almost zero.

The trouble is not just that. Even though the moon-orbiting satellite is still usable, it has seriously exceeded its age and is still functioning externally. In fact, its internal functions are difficult to adapt to modern requirements.

"Don't be so optimistic. In fact, those satellites orbiting the moon are all finished, and the photos released from time to time are all stored in advance..." Someone in the corner spoke dullly, and this blow stunned everyone.

"What? You all dare to lie about such a thing? When did it happen!"

"Actually, you should know in your heart. The moon does not have stable atmospheric pressure, so its orbit will naturally not be very fixed. The lifespan of these satellites is quite short. After running for a year and a half, the mission will be completed. But after so many years After that, photos are still sent back from time to time, don't you think it's strange?”….

Everyone was silent again. Many people had already thought about this possibility, but the moment it was confirmed was still very uncomfortable.

The vehicle for carrying people and cargo is not powerful enough, and there is no satellite relay between the earth and the moon. How can this be done? Why were Americans able to successfully log in in the past? There were relatively few satellites in the sky at that time, so the choice was big. Now when we launch, we have to calculate the gravitational force between the earth and the moon, and we have to avoid the satellites all over the sky. Many satellites have been sent to this position for a long time, making it convenient for observation. If you want to land, you have to get other people's orbital data and cleverly avoid it. This is a long story, and you really need to think about it carefully, otherwise you will hit the satellite in space and land in vain.

At this point, the most serious problems have been listed, and the next step is to think about how to solve them.

"If a single warehouse can't fit in it, then we can build two vehicles at once, launch two rockets at the same time, and land one behind the other. What do you think?"

"Not so good! The GPS positioning of the earth has an error of one or two meters. If you go to the moon, you will know whether the positioning is accurate or not. The earth has a magnetic field, which will affect the detection results. You don't know, right? The most serious thing is that astronauts go to the moon After reaching the moon, I had to travel half a moon to find another warehouse!"

This possibility is really not small. Without the friction of the atmosphere, it is very difficult to adjust the position of the warehouse. If the positioning is not accurate, it may go anywhere.

"Then there is only one way. Ask Xia Guo to borrow a relay satellite. I haven't found it before..."

The proposal was immediately met with strong opposition. Xia's latest moon-orbiting satellite must be operating normally. The United States did ask Xia for help in the past, but now it's a life-and-death struggle. It's shameful.

But if you don't look for Xia Guo, who else can you look for?

The whole world is no longer interested in this project. Dongyang was very ambitious at the time and stopped working on it for more than ten years. It has been more than ten years since it started and it has been lost long ago.

The situation is similar in Europe. It is unreliable for the whole of Europe to be **** to carry out such a project. When it comes to paying for it, each one will be poorer than the other.

It's hard enough for a couple to sleep in the same bed. How can a bunch of couples sleep in the same bed in Europe? This project is essentially dead.

After thinking about it for a while, no one can use it, so I can throw another one in advance. Fortunately, this kind of thing is not particularly difficult. I have the star chain at hand, and the modification should be able to be useful in a short time, but It is impossible to completely replace the role of relay satellites.

Looking at Xia Guo's moon-orbiting satellite on the back of the moon, tears of envy flowed into my mouth. That place was not affected by the earth's magnetic field, and the communication was quite stable. Not to mention that Xia Guo was engaged in quantum communication. Everything was fine. It was not necessary. What are the five Lagrangian points looking for?

It was decided to launch the relay satellite in advance. Without this as a prerequisite, the chance of landing on the moon would be very small. Then we have to decide one more thing, and that is whether to build two rockets, one to send people and one to send things up.

The more direct approach is to increase thrust, increase the limited space of the rocket, fly bricks vigorously, and solve it directly. This is quite difficult. The production line is fixed and there is an upper limit on what can be produced. If you want to increase the size, you have to build a bigger model, a bigger furnace, and conduct wind tunnel experiments. It is not just about making it thicker. Then just install some flanks and **** fuel. ….

So building a new rocket has been rejected, so we can only try to reduce the number of things as much as possible. Don't bring so many gadgets. Don't bring so much equipment for scientific research. If you want to do research, take it back. The goal this time is mainly to go up and build a base and live for a while. Based on this concept, the weight has been reduced a lot, and it is getting closer to the approved load capacity.

But the scientific researchers kept shaking their heads. This person was putting the cart before the horse. Was he spending so much money just to send people up to build a shack? Without on-site research equipment, it is really inconvenient.

However, no one dares to say this, because the proposal to launch the relay satellite in advance was passed after being scolded bloody. Now who dares to talk about launching two rockets at the same time, that obviously requires more preparations All right.

"The ration is one month, and the seeds can grow into edible crops in two months. Is this reliable? This little soil, this little nutrient solution? And this little oxygen production equipment and green plants?" Three unlucky astronauts The staff members felt numb looking at their supplies list. A rocket is not enough to carry only its own food, but it also has to carry construction materials.

"We will continue to launch rockets to transport supplies to you in a month. Don't worry. You can't carry so many things at once. Please be considerate."

The astronauts are stupid, they are so considerate, their own lives are not guaranteed, is this a human thing? The follow-up operation of sending supplies has never been done before. Whether he can get the supplies smoothly is a huge problem.

"Let's not worry so much. If we ask to return after half a month, we will just say that the lunar equipment is broken!"

"I agree, this time it's really messy!"

“It feels like we might even have gotten lost halfway through!”

The three astronauts are very pessimistic. This project to return to the moon has been unreliable from the beginning. Many of the contents were launched without rigorous experiments. Their journey will definitely be thrilling. The three brothers had already sorted out their suicide notes, disposed of their property, and deleted all browsing history from their browsers. They only kept the mobile phones in their hands. They relied on this to use their ancestral skills. The main thing is to be innocent.

The day is approaching day by day, and new news will come from Xia State from time to time, which is what the top management of the United States does not want to hear. Judging from these aerospace news, Xia State is making very fast progress, the foundation is still stable, and it can be launched at any time. If the moon hadn't been set for a special date, it would have been launched long ago.

Not to be outdone, the top leaders of the United States agreed to the dual rocket launch for the first time, saying that they wanted to show their technological power to the world. This decision made with a slap on the **** undoubtedly made the people under his control even busier, but the project leader was a little relieved. At least the survival of these people after going to the moon should not be a problem.

Just throw the equipment into another rocket, and the construction materials and food are bound to the astronauts. If it doesn't work, you can still hold on for a while, right?

However, the gold content of dual rocket launches is indeed very high. They have made relevant plans. If it fails, they will prepare materials and try again.

On April 26, at 7 a.m. US time, the launch ceremony took place on time. This was also deliberately arranged by the US government. This time happened to be the time after Xia people returned home from get off work. A good show cannot be without an audience, right? The entire launch process was broadcast live and the whole world could see it. ….

It was not until this moment that the United States revealed that this time it was a dual rocket launch and landing, which triggered a crowd of exclaims. There is only one main control system, and the transport capacity is also fixed. It is difficult to manage the equipment if you are in charge of people, so it is generally not done like this.

"We do this because we have enough confidence in our own technology. After the two rockets enter space, they will always be in contact with each other and positioned. The cargo warehouse has a very high degree of autonomy and will be adjusted according to the real-time position of the astronaut cabin. After landing, The accuracy is about 100 meters." The spokesperson of the American Aerospace Corporation was proud. After so long, the United States finally showed its face for once, and he was the spokesperson and walked on the stage of history. How could he be dissatisfied?

It is rare to see a spokesperson with such confidence. We can only wish him success. Then when it came to interviewing the astronauts, the three astronauts were obviously not very interested and answered the questions in a rather dogmatic manner, as if they had set standard answers in advance.

Generally speaking, they are talking about scientific and technological progress, returning to the moon, making the United States strong again, and other correct nonsense. It sounds like they have said everything, but in fact they have said nothing. Anyway, everyone has had the meeting and knows exactly what situation is being described.

This time the rocket is Musk's X Falcon Heavy rocket. To be precise, it is a modified Falcon. It is bigger than before, and you can tell it is a ruthless character at a glance. When astronauts began to enter the cabin and the rocket began to refill fuel and check the instruments, Musk was interviewed.

He was high-spirited, more energetic than the spokesman, and looked like a smooth and proud big rooster.

"It is not easy for Space Company to get to where it is today. It has continuously accumulated technology step by step, and finally ushered in the opportunity to land on the moon. We are fully confident in completing this launch mission, and mankind will remember this day. Technology changes the world, and we create history. !" Musk doesn't talk much. Compared to his square-faced brother who lives far away in Xia, he talks less and values technology more.

But after he said this, his expression became serious, and his family knew about his affairs.

The rockets of Space Company cannot be regarded as dedicated moon landing rockets at all. They are all directly modified, which makes people very worried.

Modern aerospace attaches great importance to system control, but it does not mean that basic rocket principles are not important. In recent years, the direction of space development in the United States has gone astray. It always feels that the system is up to date. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Because of these messy reasons, the space shuttle is slowly being retired. This kind of thing is indeed relatively useless at this stage, but it cannot be denied that this thing must be developed. What if one day humans start to go into space, will it just be Can you be squeezed into a small space capsule and unable to move?

Shaking his head subconsciously, Musk was powerless. This launch was a big show to regain face for the Americans, and no one could raise objections.

The countdown to the launch of the rocket entered, and everyone began to get nervous, especially the three astronauts.

When the time came, the tail flame immediately spurted out, and the surrounding water curtain jetted rapidly, and the water vapor completely covered the launch base.

The strong push on the back made the astronauts extremely nervous, and they communicated on the internal channel.

Matt yelled, "Think back on your life!"

Damon yelled "I'm done thinking about it!"

Big Ben shouted: "Damn! My life is so short!" 39314599.
