432 Eagle emblem in the night sky
The head of the technical department responsible for the operation of the space station at the Imperial Space Agency of Iran Hill stared at the computer screen in front of him through a pair of heavy glasses.
After careful calculations, this huge space station is now fixed in a planetary synchronous orbit. It's right in the sky, motionless and running very well.
"What happens when the solar panels are opened?" He looked at his colleague and asked casually.
Because he was a little nervous, he liked to ask this kind of question lately. And because of the same nervousness, no one found him annoying, on the contrary, everyone was willing to answer such questions.
"Everything works! Minister. 19 minutes ago, we adjusted the orientation of the panels, and now the power generation is working properly, we have disconnected the nuclear reactor and the power system is still not affected. The technician sitting next to him reported.
A female technician walked in with a cup of bitter tea, put the bitter tea in front of the minister in charge, and asked with a smile, "When I left, there were no problems in the magic laboratory, right?" ”
"Watch it for you!" In the other position, a female technician in a magical robe was of short stature, and she sat in a position completely covered by the back of the chair, and if she didn't speak, no one would probably notice, and there was also a staff member on duty.
This female magician also wears a pair of heavy glasses, because people who are engaged in technology read a lot of books, so in the technical department of Iran Hill, the wearing rate of myopia glasses is almost the same as the rate of guns of front-line soldiers.
In the entire surveillance hall, there are very few researchers and technicians who do not wear glasses, but there are as many people who wear glasses as if they were crossing the river.
"Experimental data is almost fixed, and in outer space, the use of magic has increased by 700%, which is a great statistic that has never been proven before." The diminutive magician proudly stated a fact, one that, once announced, would be enough to shock all magicians.
"The enhanced magic array has a sevenfold strengthening effect after using one percent of the original energy consumption, I have never seen such an exciting research result, we are creating a history, a history of magic." She said, gesturing her finger at the monitor.
Inside the monitor, a magic array was flashing with dazzling light, as if it had lost its restraints, it seemed to have life, and in the distant synchronous orbit, the effectiveness of this magic array was so strong that it could be seen clearly through the monitor.
"What's going on over there?" The Director turned his chair and looked to the other side of his seat.
Several staff members on the other side hurriedly replied: "The plant grows very quickly, and we used the plant magic inscription of the elves, although it is not as effective as the magic released by the elves themselves, but it is more than ten times better than the theoretical expectation. ”
"That is?" The Director raised an eyebrow and asked about a topic he cared about.
The staff over there didn't disappoint him either, and then replied, "Your Majesty's theory is correct, and the estimate of the Magic Academy is too conservative!" We can build an ecologically stable circulation system in space, and as long as there are enough places to grow plants, an ecosphere can be formed here. ”
This is definitely good news, if this experiment is successful, then using the magic of the elves, human beings can establish a stable ecosystem in space, and with this ecosystem, the self-development of the entire space station will become possible.
At that time, if you don't need to replenish oxygen and food, just transport materials and personnel, the cost of expanding the space station will be doubled.
And all this is undoubtedly a huge impetus and encouragement for the imperial aerospace project, which is throwing a huge amount of money into it.
"A second space station is under construction, and this time, we plan to send 10 astronauts into space, which is an adventure, but the adventure will pay off." The supervisor was dispelled by the bitter tea, and looked forward to a bright future with a teacup.
The first launch went very smoothly, which directly stimulated the ambitions of the top management of Ellen Hill. Deser personally ordered the construction of 3 similar space stations to begin at once.
These space stations will be connected in space to form a super-giant space station. Judging by the actual size, this space station is enough for 1,000 people to survive in outer space for a long time, which is already an unimaginable great progress in the civilization of the earth.
At Iran Hill, though, this is just a small prelude to the space program. As the plan progresses, Ellan Hill will launch radio telescopes and other equipment to join the Ring project, and begin to expand the living space of Ellan Hill people in space.
In a few weeks, Ellen Hill will launch a rocket and carry a rover to explore the moon in the field. If it is confirmed that the moon has value for development, then Iran Hill will immediately start the lunar development program.
Once the Ring is on normal track, Ellen Hill will launch the base to their lunar surface. Yes, not a probe, but a direct launch of a base to the surface of the moon!
Ellan Hill will build a massive base on the moon to mine its resources and feed back to its home planet.
The whole plan is complete, well-prepared, and not something casual. At this moment, Iran Hill has really taken his eyes off their opponents, they have begun to study themselves, and they have begun to explore the universe.
War is obviously no longer the main theme of Iran Hill, and even because the opponent is too backward, Iran Hill has begun to slow down the speed of weapon development.
This really can't be blamed on the weapons developers of Iran Hill, when their opponents can't even beat the F-15 fighter jet, they really can't find a reason to develop the F-22.
"The next step is to plant it on a large scale...... This requires some of the functions of Space Station 3...... After all, space is the most important problem that restricts our use of the universe. An engineer watched the well-growing vegetables spread around the space lab, with a smile on his face that could not be concealed.
Everyone here has the right to rejoice, because they have not only accomplished a feat that changed the world, but they are also using their own efforts to maintain this important fruit.
"Isn't it! Space is the big problem that restricts our development! But...... Have you heard of that? Yesterday, the technical department had a bold idea to overturn the previous plan...... "In the middle of the night, the atmosphere in the room gradually became lively because of chatting.
Everyone was busy with their work, but they didn't delay their mouths in the slightest. Words kept coming out of their mouths, and many of them still didn't stop tapping on the keyboard.
"You're talking about the theory that resources lead development priorities?" The female technician who had just gone to make tea for the supervisor asked curiously.
"Isn't it? I heard that in addition to technology, experts in overall planning have also joined the operation team...... They believe that if His Majesty's assumption is true, then it will be more convenient to collect resources on the moon to build a star ring...... "A technician gossips about technology, and he is absolutely a thousand."
Of course, the director also heard these rumors, and immediately answered: "This theory is based on the theory that the gravitational pull of the moon is smaller, and it is more convenient and faster to transport resources. This is His Majesty's speculation......"
"But Your Majesty never missed." The female technician said firmly with a face full of faith and longing.
"Yes, Your Majesty never missed." Behind her, several male technicians also kept nodding their heads in agreement.
"Sometimes I even question my beliefs. I believe in science and think it can do anything, but whenever I see Your Majesty, I feel that the only person who is destroying my view of science is the one who puts science in front of me. The female technician clasped her hands in front of her chest as if on a pilgrimage, and her eyes were full of little stars.
"Okay, don't be emotional, Your Majesty is our god, the god of science...... I don't think there's anything controversial about that. I don't know where the voice came from, and I agree with the female technician.
The technician, who was still observing the growth of vegetables just now, then said: "So, I think that the construction of the star ring, in a few months, will lag behind the construction of the lunar base." ”
"Well, if there are resources on the moon." The short girl technician habitually pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose and continued to be more truthful.
Picking up the bitter tea in front of him, the supervisor blew it gently, and then took a sip, suddenly feeling more refreshed.
He perked himself up for a moment, then put down his teacup, clapped his hands twice, and reminded him, "Okay, that's the end of the chat!" Your Majesty is personally enlisted, and there is no way to inquire about our specific situation now. We should now be more conscious and do a good job in the work at hand! ”
He has been staying up late for two days in a row, and in these two days, he has to personally inquire about the execution of every action on the space station.
And in the past time, his efforts have not been without rewards, this huge space station is now running normally, and in the test cabin, there are even some experiments being carried out in an orderly manner.
And hundreds of kilometers away from them, in the endless night sky, a huge space station is waiting for the arrival of the person who started it.
Huge solar panels stretch out on both sides of it, like the sails of the new century, carrying the future and hope of mankind in space. It is the crystallization of human technology, and it is also a sign that an era has been opened.
As it slowly turned, in the darkness, on the shell of this huge space station, a huge eagle emblem was revealed, shining in the sunlight.
