Chapter 129: Astronautics Academy
After the college entrance examination.
After the college entrance examination results and the admission scores of various universities came down, Yun Xinghe, who has reached the age of 20, sat down with more than a dozen friends with the best relationship and discussed the problem of volunteering.
Yun Xinghe has long determined the goal of filling in the report - Bola Star Aerospace Academy, majoring in star exploration.
The School of Astronautics, located in Dongfang City, has a history of nearly 1,000 years and ranks among the top 10 institutions of higher education in Bolaxing.
There are three main purposes for the establishment of the Aerospace Academy.
1. Deliver fresh blood and talent to the Federation's 11th Starfleet.
2. Cultivate all kinds of talents in the aerospace field.
3. Train interstellar explorers.
Yun Xinghe filled in this school, naturally hoping to complete basic skills training in this academy, master the ability to actually control spaceships, and systematically learn how to become an excellent interstellar explorer.
You know, interstellar explorers are not what you want to be, it doesn't mean that anyone who has a spaceship in their hands can go straight to a strange galaxy, and then realize the dream of getting rich and famous, it's not that simple.
In general, the vast majority of interstellar explorers will go through the following steps in the process of generating dreams, entering their own exploration spacecraft, and then setting sail and realizing their dreams:
First of all, the major counterpart, the major studied in the university, must be a starry sky exploration related major.
Secondly, on a starship of the Federation Fleet, five years of service, must have excellent performance, and must obtain a post qualification certificate.
Finally, after passing all aspects of the assessment, they were selected as the pioneer astronaut team of the Federal Star Exploration Agency, formed a professional team, assigned advanced exploration spacecraft, and started the expedition.
So, to some extent, the search for habitable galaxies and the creation of more living space are mainly promoted by the federal government.
So, can you bypass the Federation, an individual or a private team, and go on an interstellar expedition privately?
After all, it is too troublesome to go through official channels, not to mention the trouble, and there are many restrictions.
Yes, the government does not restrict private expeditions, and even encourages them to some extent - as long as you report the habitable systems you find to the federal Star Exploration Agency.
However, the purpose of private expeditions is not for the sake of all mankind, but for their own small purposes, so the government will not give them much support.
For example, the government will not provide the star map that must be used on the spaceship, and there is no accurate star map, how many light-years away is a twinkling star in the sky? Whether it is a star or a quasar hundreds of millions of light-years away cannot be determined.
In addition to star charts, there are no planets with heavy elements in some star systems, so is there any value in exploitation? The Star Exploration Bureau will first screen the stars that have been excluded through various astronomical observation equipment, and even if there may be fish that have slipped through the net, more than 99 percent of them really have no value for exploration, and a lot of useless work has been avoided.
There is also some general knowledge of astronomy, which may make a big joke if some people don't understand it.
For example, in a galaxy with a large number of heavy elements, the size of its host star is 10 times that of the sun, is there any value in exploring such a star system?
The answer is no, a giant star ten times larger than the sun, the speed of the internal fusion reaction, geometric progression, if the life of the sun is 10 billion years, such a giant star, the life span is only 10 million years, and finally under the action of gravitational collapse, either a supernova explosion, or directly become a black hole.
Therefore, galaxies that do not exist for a long time are first excluded from the list of explorations.
There are also well-designed exploration spacecraft, material reactors and high-power engines used by military starships, private forces, there are no such technical reserves at all, and they may not even be able to make population bombs, and private forces, even if they find one or two habitable galaxies, cannot independently explore and swallow them privately.
And the reality is also the same, since the establishment of the Blue Star Federation, more than 1500 years, more than 100 habitable galaxies, all of which were found by the exploration spacecraft sent by the government, and most of the private spaceships that wanted to try their luck disappeared into the vast starry sky, never to return, and found nothing.
Yun Xinghe is very confident in being admitted to the Aerospace Academy, and his score will definitely be able to get on, and there will be no problems.
And these friends around me, the grades are not bad, and the admission score line of the Aerospace College is not particularly high (mainly because there are fewer people who apply), if they all apply for this college, most people should be able to go on.
But to Yun Xinghe's surprise, on July 22, after the college entrance examination scores came out, five or six of the dozen or so partners whose scores exceeded the admission score line of the Aerospace College retreated.
"Boss Xinghe, my girlfriend wants me to apply for the Blue State Conservatory of Music with her, she wants to be a star, and I want to support him by her side. A sunny and handsome boy said, his head bowed, and his face was a little ashamed.
Lan Xiulong, who was next to him, opened his mouth, twitched the muscles on his face, and wanted to scold: Bastard things, for the sake of women, even brothers don't want anymore, and the ideals and wishes that they once made together have been forgotten cleanly!
Yun Xinghe pulled Lan Xiulong, his eyes signaled him not to get angry, and said to this partner with some regret: "Xiaokang, we all know that you love your girlfriend very much, since this is the case, I don't force it, I hope you can achieve positive results and go to the end." ”
That being said, Yun Xinghe's heart was not optimistic that Sun Kang and his girlfriend would be able to go to the end, because through [Advanced Mind Reading], he found that Sun Kang's girlfriend was a hypocritical and pretentious woman, and Sun Kang was with him purely for money, and he was very good at pretending, and he was very deep in hiding, Yun Xinghe was worried that Sun Kang would plant a big heel fight on this woman's head.
But kindly reminded him that he would definitely be angry, stiffen his friend's concern, and invite him to apply for the Aerospace Academy together, but he was not interested at this time, and it was impossible to pull it back, and after thinking about it, he gave up his efforts and let him fall deeper and deeper.
Only another person can be selected to replace this excellent repair officer.
"Thank you, Boss Galaxy. ”
Sun Kang's face was red and ashamed, and he didn't even dare to look at Yun Xinghe's eyes.
"Galaxy...... Boss Xinghe, I may not be able to go to your school anymore, my parents want me to take over their company, if I leave, this ...... This company has no part of me at all. ”
Another little friend said with a little stammer.
"Zhang Zhichao, a small company worth tens of billions, why are you a treasure? Can you have some ambition?"
Lan Xiulong couldn't bear it anymore and pointed at him and scolded.
"Zhichao, if we can find a planet, isn't it much more valuable than a company, and you have such a little ambition? Sugaru said with a disappointed expression.
"No, no. ”
Zhang Zhichao hurriedly shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't want to go, it's that the interstellar expedition is too dangerous, and it is very likely that I won't be able to come back, and my parents are afraid that something will happen to me, so I ......."
At this time, even Yun Xinghe shook his head in disappointment, sighed and said: "Zhichao, I thought you would be an excellent chief engineer, but now it seems that you are an unbearable layman, you go, I don't have your brother, in the future, don't say in front of others, you know us." ”
"Galaxy Boss ......"
Zhang Zhichao screamed, but no one paid attention to him, he had to bite his lower lip, lowered his head, and left the Yun family.
With the two precedents of Sun Kang and Zhang Zhichao, among the remaining ten partners, there were still four or five people, who were also slightly ashamed, stood up, said sorry, and left the Yun family silently...... No more excuses.
In the end, there were only five people left in the living room, except for Yun Xinghe.
Namely: Du Xiaopang, Su Jialu, Lan Xiulong, Xianglan Meiqin, and her sister Yun Qiaoqiao.
It's still a middle school day, and the team that stayed.
There was no increase in one.
Yun Xinghe was very disappointed, in the five years of high school, in the game, he had millions of good brothers, but now, no one is willing to go with him.
He was a real failure.
"It's normal, adults have adult thoughts, they are more realistic, easier to be persuaded by the person next to them, and they may care more about their girlfriends, care more about their parents, and have a lot of things that are difficult to let go, so it is difficult for adults to be moved by dreams, unless, this dream can be easily realized. ”
The old man in his head said.
"Xinghe, don't be depressed anymore, there are at least a few partners around you who have been with you until now, when you arrive at the Aerospace Academy, there will be more like-minded people with you, don't worry about the lack of personnel in your team, in the cradle of dreams, you can pull a team with enough people!"
"Cradle?"
Hearing this word, the depression in Yun Xinghe's heart was suddenly swept away, and he clenched his fists and said, "I know, old man!"
