Chapter 360: 50 kilometers per second

Zhang Xiaoman's meteor-level stealth operation special service ship, the largest proportion of the overall is the jump engine.

The jump engine is a very large component, and he knows from the structure diagram that the size of this thing takes up at least most of the spaceship, and the length alone is more than 30 meters, which is a true super engine.

And the role of this thing is also easy to understand, according to the explanation of the star sequence mastermind, it can fold space and open a passage for the ship to jump, within this passage, the ship can travel long distances at faster than the speed of light.

This is a bit of a big deal, because the most difficult problem in space travel is long-distance travel.

The vastness of the universe is always above the imagination of human beings, and if matter cannot reach the speed of light, if it wants to achieve long-distance space travel, it can only find other ways.

The jump engine solves this problem very well, but if you want to use this feature, you will need more conditions.

In addition to a lot of preparation time and energy consumption, the most important thing is to master the coordinates of the corresponding target point in advance, if there are no coordinates, the space channel can not be accurately located, and the jump is impossible.

In addition, in addition to the navigation system, what Zhang Xiaoman is most concerned about is the weapon system.

It's just a pity that this covert operation special service ship is not full-time responsible for output, it is very good at the field of electronic warfare, but it can be replaced by combat, it is a little stretched.

The ship is equipped with only one laser turret, one machine gun turret, and a phalanx defense system, and the number of weapon ports is smaller than that of anti-gravity vehicles.

But this can't be helped, after all, this spacecraft is specially used to perform electronic warfare, and fighting is not its strong point, and the specialty is not right.

After listening to the introduction of the basic situation, Zhang Xiaoman visited the various areas of the spaceship under the guidance of the other party.

From the combat area, to the logistics area, to the living area, the dormitory area, and even the cultivation area where plants can be grown, the entire ship is like a small fortress.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for such a large frigate to be piloted by only one person.

In order to control it perfectly, the crew needs to have at least 50 people, including captains, system administrators, operators, navigators, engineers, mechanics, medical personnel, psychological therapists, trainers, logistics support personnel, security personnel, etc.

However, according to another version of Star Sequence, Aurora has a fully automatic intelligent AI system, which has very powerful computing power, and can complete the control of the spacecraft with only one main control computer.

Of course, this kind of operation has great limitations, and can only be used to do some basic operations, and if you want to go further, you still need relevant personnel to assist in control.

Zhang Xiaoman came to the control room of the spaceship, where there were rows of machines that looked very powerful, he couldn't read them, and he didn't dare to ask.

After all, with his C-level driver's license, I'm afraid that even if he asks, there is a high probability that he will not understand.

Well, anyway, for this spaceship, he doesn't care about what he controls or anything, as long as he can use it normally, everything will be left to the intelligent system.

Zhang Xiaoman sat on a chair dedicated to the captain in the middle, touched the material, and looked around, not to mention that it felt pretty good.

"Star Sequence, start the spaceship, lift off."

He said to the system.

These commands may be a bit non-standard, but he is not a professional captain, and he has not learned anything: "Spaceship Navigation", "Spaceship Control", "Frigate Support Theory", "Special Service Ship Mastery" and other professional skills, and he does not even know the most basic command set.

However, as a powerful artificial intelligence, the ship system can easily recognize the meaning of his words.

Of course, he can also read the above books in the library of the frigate's living quarters, or read the electronic version directly from the ship's main engine system to the satellite network terminal.

"Instructions have been received, please ask the commander to confirm the target location."

The voice of the star sequence sounded, and on the platform in front of Zhang Xiaoman, a three-dimensional figure unfolded, and it was the star map of the water blue star.

He reached out and flicked it on it, only to find that except for the Aqua Blue Star, the surrounding places were all uncharted and had not yet been explored.

"By the way, don't forget to turn on the stealth operation mode."

Zhang Xiaoman said, casually chose a place in the star map, and saw that the originally bright lights in the spaceship gradually dimmed, and the beautiful voice of the star sequence also sounded:

"The command has been received, the stealth mode of action has been activated, and the inertial damper is activated...... Activation is complete, acceleration restriction is lifted, and autopilot is enabled......"

As Star Sequence's words fell, there was a ripple on the ship, and then it disappeared into the crowd of the craftsmen, and then quietly left the ground and flew towards the target location.

Zhang Xiaoman didn't feel anything change around him at this time, but he could see through the holographic projection screen that he was moving at an alarming speed, and in less than a few minutes, the new version of the Dawn had already flown out of the atmosphere.

Although the members of the craftsman group knew that the battleship might have taken off at this time, they still refused to leave, and they all looked at the sky with their necks up, as if they could see through the spaceship soaring in the universe.

"The destination has arrived, and the autopilot is off."

With the pleasant sound of the prompt, Zhang Xiaoman realized that he had come to space outside the water blue star.

He remembered that he seemed to have been in a similar position before, when he came in an all-rounder anti-gravity vehicle, but the speed was not as fast as it is now.

He vaguely remembered that the maximum speed of the anti-gravity car seemed to be about 5,000 meters per second, as for why a speed of 5,000 meters per second could break free from the gravitational constraints of the water blue star and reach space.

The reason for that is actually very simple, because it uses an anti-gravity engine, and naturally it no longer has to obey the first principle of cosmic velocity as defined by humans.

And now this frigate is even more exaggerated, reaching a speed of 50 kilometers per second, which directly increases the speed by 10 times, which is a bit terrifying.

If you set off from Aqua Blue Star to the moon at this efficiency, you only need to

However, it is also understandable that 50 kilometers per second is only the maximum speed, and it must be in space to reach this peak.

Coupled with the fact that this is a special service ship that specializes in speed and electronic warfare, it is not an exaggeration to have such efficiency.

After all, with the current human technology, the speed of a spacecraft in space can reach almost one-fifth of this speed.
