The length of the space elevator does not end with an extension to a geosynchronous orbit of 36,000 kilometers, because if the space terminal of the space elevator is positioned at this height, it will only be able to keep the five carbon nanotube cable strips straight and horizontal. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But it's not enough to keep the carbon nanotubes straight, because the five cables also have elevator cars on top of them and heavy supplies to be transported. Therefore, according to the previous design, the length of the space elevator must reach a length of 100,000 kilometers to be able to counteract the additional gravity generated by the space elevator when transporting people and materials with the centrifugal force of the cable itself.

However, when the asteroid, named Hercules, reached geosynchronous orbit and succeeded Prince Barnett as the foundation for the platform, the length of the space elevator did not need to be extended.

The asteroid itself has a large enough mass, and there are two super plasma thrusters with very strong thrust on it, which means that the Asteroid Hercules is actually a supership with the ability to maneuver. In fact, this asteroid has a large enough mass, so it can be very good as a fixed object for the space terminal of the space elevator, as long as Hercules maintains the speed synchronized with the Earth's rotation, then these five space elevators will become extremely stable!

Then, the relevant engineers in the Tinder Project will continue to install one or two super plasma thrusters on the Hercules asteroid, because this asteroid will serve as the basis for building a platform with the asteroid as the center, and continue to spread around until it forms a platform similar to a space port.

Once this platform is formed, then all the construction of large spacecraft, including the Super Plasma Thruster, can be done on this platform.

In fact, when the platform is fully formed, the real Tinder project will begin to unfold. All the work done in front of you is a preparatory work.

Of course, how to build a platform based on the Hercules asteroid and how to launch the Tinder plan don't need Tang Feng to worry about. In the past two years of training, hundreds of thousands of people have become skilled engineers. These people are the real source of fire for human beings to complete the Tinder plan, and with these experienced engineers here, Tang Feng firmly believes that the later Tinder plan will be implemented very well.

Tang Feng, who has been busy for a long time, has been at home with his family for a long time, and he has not done anything, just to make up for the debt to his family.

During this period, some of Tang Feng's old friends came to visit, because although Tang Feng didn't say anything, almost everyone around Tang Feng could feel that Tang Feng seemed to be going on a long "expedition", even if it was Mateschitz and Hugo. Sigman, an old friend who is far away from Tang Feng, actually felt this way on the phone, so the picturesque Lausara Island has welcomed many distinguished guests in recent times.

The first guest to arrive was Tang Feng's good brother Xuanyuan Gongsheng, a single young man in his twenties, who is now over thirty years old and the father of two children.

Xuanyuan came to Lausara Island with his wife and children, and they didn't notify Tang Feng before they came, so Tang Feng was also very surprised by the arrival of this good brother.

Over the years, he has been busy with the major affairs of the star core and the earth, and some of Tang's mines Tang Feng has almost let go, so over the years, in addition to being able to see Xuanyuan at the company's annual meeting every year, it is difficult for Tang Feng to see this bold Northeast man.

As the head of the St. Lawrence copper-gold mine and a shareholder who owns a portion of the world's second-largest copper-gold mine, Xuanyuan now has a very high position within the Tang family. Although the St. Lawrence copper-gold mine was spun off from Tang's the year before, Xuanyuan's position in the global mining industry has not diminished.

The arrival of Xuanyuan Gongsheng's family, the happiest is Tang Beier and Tang Ruze, because Xuanyuan Gongsheng's son and daughter are about the same age as Tang Beier and Tang Ruze......

The arrival of Xuanyuan Gongsheng seemed to blow the horn, and in the next few days, many friends came one after another that Tang Feng could not usually see. Mateschitz and Hugo. Needless to say, the two old guys of Sigman, the two of them are world-renowned rich men, because of their longevity in the past, these two old guys did not have much interest in coming out to play, and later there was a genetic modification solution, which extended the life span of human beings around the world by ten times, so these two rich and idle old guys are happy.

Now the two of them are about to become good friends, they have to go out together for more than half a year every year, and these two old guys have signed up for the first human colonization to Mars. With their relationship with Tang Feng and the additional sponsorship funds, the two of them have been selected as the first candidates to immigrate to Mars.

Dr. Schmitz is and Chris. Morgan, Benjamin. Rockefeller and Andrew. Mellon, the four of them came to Lausara Island together. Originally, Dr. Schmitz had retired from Star Exploration because of his age, but also because of the genetic modification solution, this old expert who made great contributions to the human march to Mars is now back in his post. The great Tinder Project is now being carried out under his full auspices.

This time, Dr. Schmitz came to Lausara Island for both public and private purposes, and the other three shareholders of Star Discovery Company were purely for fun.

As the most outstanding rising stars of the three major families in the United States, Chris, Benjamin, and Andrew successfully hugged Tang Feng's thick thigh in the early days, and partnered with Tang Feng to establish the world's most popular star exploration company, so now the status of the three of them in their respective families is quite transcendent.

Because now, with the identities of the three of them in the Star Exploration Company and the fame and net worth that the Star Exploration Company has brought to the three of them, there is almost no one in the family of the three of them who can compare to them.

Except for Benjamin, Chris and Andrew gritted their teeth and took out funds to join the Star Exploration Company, originally they didn't have much hope for this little-known small company, but they didn't expect that after a few years, this inconspicuous small company had developed into an existence side by side with the huge Tang Clan.

Star Exploration Company may not be comparable to Tang in terms of assets, and even some well-known large companies, but with the development of the Tinder Project, the prospect of Star Exploration Company has immediately become extremely brilliant. It can be said that if you want to talk about the most promising company in the world at present, then Star Exploration Company can definitely be among the best! (To be continued.) )
