That's right, the second good news is that two years ago, Tang Feng chose to use an asteroid to experiment in order to let Dr. Schmitz experiment with a super plasma thruster with a diameter of up to 60 meters. www.biquge.info Now, the chosen asteroid has been successfully propelled into the geosynchronous orbit of the Earth by the two Super Plasma Thrusters installed on it.

Originally, Tang Feng wanted to experiment with the super plasma thruster and transport the asteroids rich in mineral resources to the earth's low earth orbit, but when Tang Feng realized that this kind of capturing mineral asteroids consumed too much energy and time, and at the same time, after Tang Feng controlled the entire solar system, he found it easier to use the star core to transport mineral asteroids, Tang Feng decisively terminated the idea of transporting mineral asteroids.

And the plan to make this asteroid replace Prince Barnett as the foundation for the construction of the platform was also thought up by Tang Feng and Dr. Schmitz after he took control of the entire solar system.

It's just that for the sake of these two experimental super plasma thrusters, Tang Feng drove the Nautilus back and forth between the Earth and the asteroid belt.

At the time of deciding on this plan, the earthlings did not have the ability to transport such a large super plasma thruster to the asteroid belt, in fact, let alone such a large plasma thruster, even if it was to send a person to the asteroid belt more than 100 million kilometers away from the earth, the earth currently does not have such conditions.

Otherwise, Tang Feng has the Nautilus, otherwise the plan of using the asteroid as the basis for building a platform is almost impossible to unfold.

The plan is that Tang Feng will use the Nautilus to transport the materials for the construction of the two super plasma thrusters to the selected asteroids, and then after the materials are ready, the relevant scientific and technological personnel will be sent to the asteroids, and then the two super plasma thrusters and two controllable nuclear fusion reactors will be installed on the asteroids.

It's better to transport materials or something, using the star core space, Tang Feng can transport all the materials to the asteroid at once. It is also good to say that although the space inside the Nautilus is not large, it is still no problem to transport twenty or thirty people at a time.

The key is that when building the super plasma thruster, there will be such and such accidents, and Tang Feng does not want to expose the star core for the time being, so Tang Feng has to go back and forth between the earth and the asteroid belt again and again, and at the same time have to divide his heart to protect the asteroid.

At most, on the asteroid with a maximum diameter of only 1.1 kilometers, there was an installation team of more than 120 people, except for the 25 engineers at the beginning, the rest were pulled from the earth by Tang Feng later. Therefore, Tang Feng must consider the safety of these valuable talents.

Such a tiny asteroid has almost no gravitational pull, and it is no exaggeration to say that if the person standing on it sneezes on the ground without wearing a helmet, he can "shoot" himself into space......

Of course, it was impossible to sneeze without a helmet. But it also illustrates how dangerous working on asteroids can be. Every time these engineers leave the temporary shelter where they live temporarily and are fixed to the surface of the asteroid, each of them must have a safety rope tied to their waists, and each person in the small team is connected to each other by a safety rope, and the last person and the person who is the head of the team will fix the safety rope to the fixed ring to prevent them from bounce themselves into outer space with too much force while working.

Moreover, the orbit of the asteroid is also irregular, and the asteroid that was originally moving normally may suddenly change its orbit due to the gravitational pull of the larger asteroid when it passes through a relatively large asteroid.

At this time, Tang Feng, who is far away in space, is needed. Although it is very easy to use the star core to ensure the orbit of this asteroid, it can't stop Tang Feng from paying attention to this asteroid at all times! Therefore, in those more than three months, Tang Feng really didn't worry about it.

Doing this work on an asteroid is undoubtedly very dangerous, but it is also a great exercise.

Human beings have never assembled such a large thing on such a small gravitational star before this, so this work on the asteroid is also an extremely valuable wealth of experience for mankind, at least when the asteroid arrives in the earth's low earth orbit as planned to build a platform foundation, these engineers who have worked on the asteroid for more than three months are a group of senior talents with rich experience.

That's right, with the joint efforts of these 120 people, the assembly of the two super plasma thrusters was completed in just over three months.

The two controllable nuclear fusion reactors are easy to say, because the two reactors that are larger than a standard container have been assembled on Earth a long time ago, and then they can be transported directly to the target asteroid. The biggest work on the asteroid was the installation of the two Super Plasma Thrusters.

The components of these two super-plasma thrusters have long been built on Earth, and the engineers can simply assemble them on the asteroid. The key is how these two plasma thrusters are fixed to the asteroid, which is the biggest problem. Just like building a building, laying the foundation is the most important thing.

Tang Feng would not use the star core to get the foundation for the installation of the plasma thruster in advance, since it was an experiment, since it was to accumulate experience, then all this had to be done by those engineers themselves.

Thankfully, there is a powerful Dr. Schmitz behind these engineers. As early as after Tang Feng sent the high-definition pictures of the selected asteroids to Dr. Schmitz's mailbox, Dr. Schmitz had already calculated the best installation location and installation method.

Although the asteroid is even negligible in size compared to other celestial bodies, it is still very large for the team of 120 people and the two plasma thrusters.

After all, this is also an asteroid that is 1,100 meters long, 700 meters wide, and more than 500 meters thick, and the two working faces selected by Dr. Schmitz to install the two super ion thrusters are also more than 0.45 square kilometers. This area is even larger than the Vatican's land area......

These 120 people are divided into two groups to work on two work faces, which is really inconspicuous.

To secure the two plasma thrusters, Dr. Schmitz used the clumsiest-looking, but most effective, method of wrapping the entire asteroid around the waist with high-strength carbon nanotube cables. The carbon nanotube ribbon, which is 15 meters wide and 30 centimeters thick, is strong enough to hold the two plasma thrusters to two sides of the asteroid.

Compared to drilling through the entire asteroid and then fixing the two super plasma thrusters from both sides, this method is not only the least difficult to construct, but also more safe. This method has been calculated to be enough for the two plasma thrusters to be very firmly fixed to the surface of the asteroid! Of course, this is also thanks to the development of carbon nanotube technology, otherwise, this method is also undesirable. Because only a carbon nanotube cable belt of this width and thickness can withstand such a large force.

In this way, the asteroid was successfully transported to the Earth's synchronous orbit after five months of acceleration, then seventeen months of deceleration......

This is the first time that humans have carried an asteroid in the true sense of the word! (To be continued.) )
