102 Four Space Scientists
Li Xinghe shook hands with Gilles again, saying that they would be received by the waves, and then he walked to Xinghe on his own.
Penile was so angry that she stomped her feet, looked at Li Xinghe's back, and thought, what a wooden man from a small country, he doesn't know how to be gentle at all, and the old lady still wants to wear a sexy bikini for you!
Hailang smiled awkwardly at Gilles and Penile, and he said directly according to Mr. Li's meaning: "The Xinghe has been undergoing maintenance recently, and it is not suitable to take too many people, so I will arrange your next itinerary, we will first go to the most luxurious resort villa in Tongalu to stay, and then go on an island tour......"
Although Gilles couldn't take the anti-gravity Xinghe, she had a little regret, but she didn't think much about it, after all, she had a very pleasant chat with Li Xinghe just now, and according to the itinerary agreed by both parties, the main task this time, the itinerary for visiting the satellite was scheduled for the afternoon of the next day, and today is free to arrange, she doesn't mind that Galaxy Technology arranged a vacation link for her.
Li Xinghe got on the Xinghe, arranged the 'old guys' to sit down, and immediately let Weisha start the ion thruster and fly away.
The long-distance bumps made Farquhar very angry, but after getting on the Xinghe, he felt an unusual difference, the two jet engines behind this aircraft were very conspicuous, but now they can fly silently, what kind of technology did they use to achieve such a level?
I saw the Galaxy pulling a 200,000-ton freighter on the video on the Internet before, and the loud noise made by the jet engine can be described as deafening, but now it has become silent, so he is very curious, it seems that the rumors on the Internet that the Galaxy uses the dual power of the ion engine and the jet engine are true.
He deliberately walked to the left window of the cabin and looked back at the two jet engines through the glass, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything from this angle.
Li Xinghe approached Farquhar with a smile and said with a smile: "Now it's propelled using an ion thruster. ”
"Ion thrusters, which can also be used on Earth?" Farquhar felt that his brain was running out, and he must have heard of ion thrusters, but they had not been produced in the lab, and they were conceived for use in space.
As soon as the other old guys heard about the ion thruster, they immediately surrounded them, how could this make them not excited, according to their cognition, the thrust of the ion thruster is very small, and the characteristic is that it can fly with small thrust for a long time, which is very suitable for flying in a gravity-free environment in space.
But the ion thrusters on the Galaxy are more powerful and thrusty than those that use chemical fuels, which makes them wonder if this is Earth's technology after all.
This also explains why the satellites of Tongalu have been able to enter their intended orbits quickly and freely.
"Hello, I am Li Xinghe, the founder of Galaxy Technology, you can call me Mr. Li!" Li Xinghe said as he shook hands with the four old guys one by one.
"Farquhar, Space Orbital Scientist!" Farquhar did not obsess at the question of why Li Haisheng is also called Li Xinghe, and introduced himself very happily.
"Paganini, planetary scientist!" Paganini looked at Li Xinghe with his sharp eyes, he spent his life studying extraterrestrial life, although the existence of aliens was confirmed from the fragments left in the 51st area of the First Brother Empire, but no evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial life has been found so far, so he is one of the people who supported Farquhar to explore Halley's Comet, but unfortunately he was unable to detect the elements of life on Halley's Comet in the end.
"Scherzod, stellar scientist!" Scherzod was the one who gave Farquhar the nickname of a space pirate, because he mainly wanted to use ISSE3 to study the motion of sunspots, but Farquhar lost ISSE3.
"Woodron, asteroid scientist!" Woodlon was also a colleague of Farquhar, who used ISSE3 to detect many asteroids, and later supported Farquhar's adaptation of ISSE3 to detect Halley's Comet.
"That satellite in Tongalu also uses ion thrusters?" Farquhar continued the conversation just now.
At the same time, several old guys also have such questions, and they all want to know the answers.
"You are worthy of being experts, that's right, exactly, that's called multi-purpose satellites, I plan to launch 32 of them, each of which has six ion thrusters, I won't say what energy energy is used, you can see for yourself then."
"Six ion thrusters?" A few old guys couldn't help but gasp, the satellite is so big, it also includes a solar umbrella with a diameter of 100 meters, and there is a certain amount of chemical energy to be prepared, etc., so how small do the 6 ion thrusters have to be designed?
"That's right, the Galaxy is also equipped with three ion thrusters, and the last time it rescued a cargo ship, the maximum thrust was about 100,000 tons." Li Xinghe revealed some information intentionally or unintentionally, but did not elaborate, adding to the mystery.
This has already shocked the old guys, the thrust of the two turbofan engines of the SU27 is about 10 tons, and the thrust of the ion thruster is more than 10,000 times that of it.
Li Xinghe looked at the surprised old guy, and continued to add fuel to the fire and said, "Farquhar, do you want to take back the ISSE3 satellite?" Fulfill your promise? ”
This sentence picked on the sore spot of Farquhar, thinking, of course, thinking about it day and night, he has always regarded ISSE3 as his son, and now he only knows that the orbit of ISSE3 revolves around the sun for 355 days, and if you want to get close to the earth, you will have to wait for 17 years, so even if you want to observe ISSE3 now, you have to wait for the right time, place and people, let alone take it back.
However, the multi-functional satellite has the most advanced astronomical observation black technology telescope, which can be observed at any time, not only can observe, but also can send a satellite communication signal simulating ISSE3 to enter the wake-up operation.
Farquhar looked solemn: "In 2014, we old guys organized a non-governmental team to wake up ISSE3, but in the end it failed, ISSE3 failed to wake up!" ”
Paganini looked a little sad and said: "In 2015, after we failed to wake up ISSE3, the only old person who could operate the old equipment for critical satellite communications, Lucio, has passed away, and we can't wake it up anymore, maybe it's time for us to go!" ”
Paganini, who is over ninety years old, has always understood the law of life, birth, old age, sickness and death, the destiny of heaven cannot be violated, many old men are old, he opens his eyes every day, and what he is most afraid of is to receive the news that the old man died in a dream.
Scherzod echoed: "I heard the old Green say that when NASA modernized its equipment, it disposed of all the old equipment as garbage, and deep space communication has completely changed in the past few decades, which is one of the reasons why NASA has contacted us less and less in recent years. ”
Hearing the old guy's memories, Li Xinghe smiled, he really didn't find the wrong topic, now he was not afraid that the old guys would run away, he said: "What if I have a way?" ”
"What? Do you have a way? After Faquhar finished speaking, he approached Li Xinghe and grabbed Li Xinghe's shoulders tightly, looking very excited.
From time to time, a few seabirds flew by the window next to it, accompanying the Xinghe.
