The central control cabin, which is not big or small, can accommodate nearly twenty people, and it is slightly crowded, but even so, everyone still does not feel that it is small here.

As a space vehicle, it is only one of the six main compartments, which is already very large.

At the entrance of the control module is a platform.

The platform has an obvious mechanical structure, which seems to be hiding something inside, as well as various indicator lights, about one and a half meters in diameter, up to waist, and embedded in the ground. Next to it is a console, which can be judged by the partition and text markings of the buttons, which is the button that controls which cabin.

The others all found a relatively convenient location and watched Chen Mo walk over curiously.

"This is the energy source of the aircraft."

Chen Mo pressed a button and entered his fingerprint and password information.

In an instant, the bright silver metal cover at the top of the platform spread out like a turbofan, and a transparent glass cylinder the thickness of a calf slowly rose.

The ends of the glass pillar are held in place by a complex mechanical structure, like the poles of a battery, filled with a transparent dark blue liquid, and in the middle of the liquid, one can see a lilac polyhedral crystal the size of a goose egg, which is held in place by a thumb-sized tube, and along with the two ends, it resembles a battery.

And this 'battery', there are eight in total, arranged in a circle in the platform.

"This is the energy battery." Chen Mo said.

There is no need to hide, there are some things, when aerospace aircraft and ion engines appear, when it is time to announce them.

When the aerospace plane was being developed, he thought about the time when these technologies would be displayed in front of others.

"Impossible."

Several experts lost their voices almost simultaneously.

How many crystals the size of a goose egg can power such a huge aircraft?

No way.

The existence of this kind of thing is beyond the scope of their current knowledge.

If Chen Mo said that it was a small nuclear fusion reactor that provided the energy, their reaction might not be that big. Because Chen Mo has successfully researched controlled nuclear fusion, it is technically feasible to miniaturize the controlled nuclear fusion reactor.

Now Chen Mo told them that this crystal, which is not as big as a fist, is to provide energy for the ion engine.

Sounds too exaggerated, too incredible.

"Academician Chen, this is not a joke, right?" Yang Wei was obviously a little unconvinced.

It's not that he doubts Chen Mo, it's that all this is too unbelievable and completely subverts their cognition.

This kind of thing, at present, only exists in movies, and there is no theory.

"It's kind of magical, indeed." Chen Mo didn't care about everyone's questioning eyes: "But it's a fact, these 'batteries' are the energy of the aircraft." ”

"Crazy, crazy."

Hearing Chen Mo's firm words, several experts found it difficult to accept.

Here today, they have refreshed their worldview. Whether it's an ion engine, or a variety of other technologies, it's something that shouldn't be there right now.

He was wondering if Chen Mo was talking crazy or if he was dreaming.

What would the world be like if there was such energy? Human development will accelerate by several decades.

"This is a new elemental crystallization that has been modified by high energy, it has specificity, and under the irradiation catalysis of strong light, it can radiate high-energy beta particles, and the radiation particles increase with the increase of light intensity, so it can be used for controlled power generation."

What's new?

Explaining this, everyone on the field was silent.

The new element means that the current knowledge is an unknown gap in what is known about it.

No one thinks that their current periodic table contains all the elements of the universe, the universe is so big, there are too many unknown substances, they may not even know one percent of them, there is a special element, it is not unusual.

The people on the field are all scientific researchers, and they accept new things quickly, Chen Mo's explanation made everyone's excitement slow down a little, but they were still full of doubts and disbelief.

"Can this substance replace controlled fusion as an energy source?"

"I can't."

Chen Mo shook his head.

"According to the current laws of physical cognition, energy is conserved. This crystallization is modified so that the internal atoms are in a critical state of excitation. High-energy particles can be radiated under the stimulation of strong light because it absorbs a lot of energy in the transformation, and the strong light only acts as a catalyst.

We can think of this new element as an energy storage substance that simply releases absorbed energy. When the energy is released, it loses its function and becomes a waste battery.

And there is another limit, the elemental crystallization of this element, the volume can not be too large, and the energy they can absorb is also limited, once the energy is overloaded, it will be wasted. ”

Chen Mo briefly introduced the characteristics of this new element to everyone, in order to study these elements, the company's electricity bill was hundreds of millions per month, but Zhao Min saw the data and said that he was perverted.

These crystals, or he went to Science Island to use the star ring of controlled nuclear fusion to generate electricity, and the cost was not so terrifying.

The experts on the field looked at each other, including the material experts among them. The material expert has been exposed to many magical materials, but this element is beyond the scope of his knowledge.

Although everyone had doubts, they still suspected that Chen Mo was fake, but because of Chen Mo's authority, they could only temporarily suppress their doubts in their hearts. Because there are too many things in the technology that Chen Mo researches, they don't understand, it doesn't mean that Chen Mo doesn't understand it.

The new element is unknown to any of them.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Chen Mo turned his head, turned off the platform of the energy battery, and restored his original appearance.

Without his passwords and instructions, no one would have been able to get their hands on the batteries unless the plane was dismantled.

"How do you use beta particles to convert them into electricity?"

"This reactor has a thermoelectric conversion system made of new materials, and the new materials can absorb beta particles and heat energy and convert them into electricity."

Chen Mo patted the control platform.

"Theoretically, it can absorb all the high-energy electrons radiated by radioactive elements. However, the radiation of radioactive elements is uncontrollable and fixed, and the difference is that the high-energy electrons emitted by the elemental crystallization of this new element can be controlled by laser catalysis. ”

Hiss......

It's something they don't have in their knowledge base.

This question is out of the box again.

Especially the material expert, at this time, he is more eager to watch Chen Mo than the Miss World champion, if he can, he doesn't mind having a good chat with Chen Mo, and it's okay to be a student.

After a tour of the space plane, a group of people came out of it, still in a trance, and the shock had not yet faded.

Chen Mo knew everything about them, and after a circle, he accepted too many new information and technologies, and they were all brand new knowledge points.

Not to mention the value of this aircraft, the new elements of the battery are already priceless. There are also reactors that use high-energy electrons to generate electricity, ion engines, and many other technologies and new materials that they don't know about.

The experts on the field all have the feeling of living for half their lives in vain.

Any kind of technology is something they can't imagine in their lifetime.

This is not an airplane, it is a treasure trove of technology.

None of the technologies they worked on were as valuable as one of the technologies contained in this aircraft.

Now only one last doubt remains.

Can this plane fly.

If it can fly, it will prove that all the techniques Chen Mo said are true and feasible.

Any technology in it can be announced to the public, and a ten-magnitude earthquake can occur in the science and technology circle, if all the technology of this aircraft is exposed, then it is not Mars hitting the earth?

After all the people left the spaceplane, they all looked at Chen Mo.

They were eager to see the plane test flight, but they were the team sent to observe, they were guests, and what they would do next was what Chen Mo said, not that they could see whatever they wanted.

"Next, let's get ready for a test flight." Chen Mo said to the ink girl beside him.

Today's task was originally a test flight, this expert team, just came to visit, and now the weather outside is good, it is a good time to test the flight.
