Following.

Luo Sheng just came to work at Star Arrow International today, and Zheng Tao came to find him.

"Mr. Luo, I have read the news you brought me yesterday, regarding the solution of laser treatment of space junk, our internal team has actually focused on research and discussion, and the technical aspect is not a problem, but the reasons for other problems have caused us to hesitate about this solution."

Hearing this, Luo Sheng said succinctly: "The 'other' reason you said refers to political issues, right? ”

Zheng Tao nodded: "Not bad." Although the orbital laser station is specifically designed for cleanup, the question of whether it is possible to be used as a space weapon will certainly be an extremely sensitive topic for all countries of the world, especially in the West. ”

This is an unavoidable question, you are indeed designed to clean up space junk, but Lao Mei may not believe it, and in a sense, the laser station deployed in orbit can be urgently requisitioned in wartime, and can be quickly adjusted to become a laser weapon to strike satellites in orbit.

Zheng Tao added: "If this plan is to be successfully promoted to the practical application level, it needs to coordinate and communicate with international organizations such as the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space to promote countries to reach a framework agreement. ”

Luo Sheng nodded and said, "Well, it's quite comprehensive, but it's too much." Not only lasers, but all spacecraft that can clean up space junk have the ability to attack the normal working satellites of other countries, otherwise do you think that the major space powers are now investing heavily in space junk disposal? Wouldn't it be wonderful to develop orbital high-altitude weapons in the name of cleaning up space junk? ”

"Uh......" Zheng Tao thought he was on the fifth layer when he heard it, but he found that he was on the third layer, which was sloppy and sloppy, and his political awareness still needs to be improved.

It is no wonder that since ten years ago, the world's major space powers have shown great enthusiasm for space junk cleanup, including the Remove-Debris project of the University of Surrey in the United Kingdom, which has now established cooperation with Star Arrow International, and some space waste disposal projects in North America.

It also includes the space debris active cleaning vehicle codenamed "Aolong-1" launched in China five years ago.

Space junk orbits the earth, and it stands to reason that someone will take the initiative to participate in the cleanup of space junk.

But this is not the case, the world's major space powers do not mean to "take advantage", but are engaged in their own space garbage disposal programs.

The obvious answer is that it has the attributes of a space weapon.

If you don't, the satellites you launch in the future may really be garbage.

Luo Sheng: "There is no need to dwell too much on this problem, but because it has weapon attributes, it needs to be promoted, and it is all being done anyway, so it must be done as a technical reserve." ”

Zheng Tao: "Understood, I'll arrange it." ”

Luo Sheng's view on this issue is just the opposite, Zheng Tao They think it is a difficult thing to do, but Luo Sheng thinks it is a good thing, anyway, it can't stop everyone from engaging in competition to check and balance each other.

The outcome of the competition is predictable, and all parties will push up the cost, and in the long run, it will become less and less cost-effective and civilian.

So Star Arrow International needs to spend a lot of money to clean up space junk for the safety of the ladder to avoid the threat of space junk, this is no way, Lao Mei can ignore it at all, anyway, the ladder is Chinese, and the loss and risk to it are the greatest.

However, with the competition, there are more institutions that can provide space waste disposal solutions, which gives Star Arrow the ability to shop around, so as to obtain international pricing power.

The orbital laser station treatment scheme is definitely to be promoted, and it has an irreplaceable position in the future of space junk disposal, and will eventually become the mainstream, just waiting for the continuous development of technology.

But for now, the "Aolong-1" or the University of Surrey's Remove-Debris project is a more mature way to dispose of space junk by actively grabbing space junk and taking it out of orbit.

In the process of removing the space junk, the spacecraft that cleans up the space junk first adjusts its orbit according to the data monitoring of the space junk by the ground facilities, approaches to a position several kilometers away from the target, and then uses its own detection equipment such as lidar and infrared camera to confirm the target status, and further approaches to a place dozens of meters away from the target.

Before attacking the space junk, it is necessary to patrol the target using an optical camera or other equipment, confirm the capture point, and then approach the capture of space junk.

The spacecraft that cleaned up the space junk then parked it into the atmosphere and burned it to complete the cleanup.

……

Five days later, the University of Science and Technology.

In room 606 of the dormitory building on campus, Wang Chen was cleaning the room, and the school had approved the house for him to use, and said some words of encouragement.

"Oops, it's finally done!"

At this moment, Wang Chen is also tired and out of breath, as a rural family, he is not afraid of hardship, the entire dormitory is done by him alone, from the dirty mess at the beginning to the tidy up now.

It is worth mentioning that he didn't ask his classmates to help sort it out first, he had already listed the team list of Dawn Studio, and he would talk to them about joining the studio when the time came.

But now I'd rather be a little tired myself.

Obviously, this is a smart move, and if you recruit people after sorting it out, they will also think that you are reliable, and the probability of being willing to stay will be greatly increased.

It's like some entrepreneurs, the company is sloppy, almost everything is lacking, but you must have a good car and a neat suit.

In this way, when you go to meet customers for business negotiations, customers also think that you are reliable, on the contrary, if you drive a broken car and wear a raunchy crotch to talk about cooperation with customers, customers feel that cooperation with them is not practical.

Facades are really important.

……

The next day, Wang Chen went to the market to purchase some office furniture and office equipment, which were all in the second-hand market to buy goods, which could save a lot of money, especially IT equipment, mainly because computers were more expensive, and they also went directly to buy second-hand goods, but they should be new and not too old, and they could be assembled by themselves when they were bought back.

As for the relatively cheap office supplies such as document file management and desktop supplies, I will directly buy new ones.

Finally, pull a network cable in.

It took Wang Chen two days to get all this done, and it took nearly ten days to build the "nest" of Dawn Studio.

These are all paid by Wang Chen himself, which cost about 30,000 yuan, and half of his current family funds.

Whether the declaration from Star Arrow International can finally pass the review and whether it can get financing, Wang Chen is actually not absolutely sure in his heart, but what should be done still has to be done, and this risk must be taken.

Wang Chen also thought very clearly, even if the more than 60,000 yuan in his hand is all lost, it will be like that, even if he is not lost, it is still like that, a small 60,000 yuan cannot change any fate, on the contrary, it may change the fate of a lifetime.

Wang Chen, who figured this out, of course, didn't have any worries, and he was done.

"This is where the dream begins!"

Wang Chen looked around at the neat and clean room, although he was very tired, he was extremely happy in his heart, and his combat effectiveness was off the charts.

At this moment, a message suddenly popped up on the AzureBook laptop that had just been connected to the network, and a small window in the lower right corner showed that the personal email account had received a new email.

"Star Arrow International's reply?"

When Wang Chen saw the email directory, his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and he inexplicably felt like a lottery.

He didn't expect it to come so quickly, and he thought that he would have to wait for more than half a month before there could be news.

After a few seconds, Wang Chen clicked on the email after calming down.
