Chapter 335, The Beginning
In Huangping Town, on the huge parking field of Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group, huge anti-gravity spaceships are neatly arranged, like high-rise buildings standing on the wide airport.
At a glance, there are hundreds of gravity-defying spacecraft.
From the very beginning, Qin Yi had already given an order to Liu Peiqiang's side, for every 3 anti-gravity spaceships produced by Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group, one of them must be used for his own use.
A few years have passed, and Galaxy Aerospace has produced thousands of anti-gravity spacecraft, of which more than 300 have not been sold, but are reserved for their own use.
It is precisely by relying on these hundreds of anti-gravity spacecraft that Galaxy Technology Group has been able to occupy a dominant position in space, whether it is a mining base on the moon, or a solar power station or space farm in space, Galaxy Technology Group is the largest among them.
Of course, Qin Yi did this to prepare for today.
To build a huge space factory, I don't know how many of the various parts and components that need to be transported into space, if this anti-gravity spaceship is all sold, Qin Yi will not want to achieve such a grand goal.
There are some things that cannot be solved with money.
The doors of the huge anti-gravity spaceships opened, revealing huge bellies, and the ground crew was very busy, loading a large amount of supplies into the anti-gravity spacecraft in strict order and position.
In another open space, the astronauts lined up in a neat line, and they were about to embark on another journey into space, although none of them knew how many times they had traveled back and forth to space, and even each of them had some time of experience in spacewalking and space work.
But this time, they're about to build the first space factory in human history, a space factory that can be used to build spaceships.
Everyone could not hide the excitement in their hearts, and they had no regrets in their lives to be able to participate in such a huge project at the right time.
Here in the command and control center, scientists and engineers in white coats are busy, and on the huge display in the center, quantum computers are simulating the assembly of the space factory over and over again.
Scientists and engineers have calculated every step and every component into it, and developed a detailed sequence and methodology.
Even the simplest tightening of a screw is definitely not an easy task in space, and astronauts work very hard in the sky.
You can work 8 hours a day on the ground, but in space, you can work 2 hours and you will be tired.
There is no air, no gravity, walking and working in space, everything is very difficult and requires a lot of physical strength.
This is also the reason why the space robotic arm is becoming more and more popular, because it can greatly reduce the workload of astronauts, but the robotic arm is not omnipotent, and there are too many places in space that still require astronauts to get on the horse themselves.
So from the very beginning, scientists and engineers knew that the construction of a space factory must follow two principles, one is to be able to do it on the ground as much as possible.
There are a lot of parts in the space factory, and many small parts are assembled into large parts, which are completed on the ground, and after the assembly is completed, they are transported to space at one time, and then assembled with other parts.
The other is to arrange all the steps in advance as much as possible, so as not to make mistakes when assembling, if there is a mistake, it will be very difficult to disassemble and reassemble.
Although Wang Songling had already designed the space factory several months ago, there were all kinds of equipment, instruments, etc., as well as assembly sequences, parts design, and so on.
The work is still very huge, and it took more than 100,000 scientists and engineers at the Galaxy Science and Technology Research Institute more than a year to design and arrange everything with the help of quantum computers.
Qin Yi was also dressed in a white coat, and his whole person looked very tired, but there was an extremely excited look in his eyes.
From the time the space factory plan was proposed to the present, all the preparations have been completed, and soon, a great project will begin in its own hands.
"This is the beginning of our humanity really stepping out of the earth and towards the interstellar space age."
Qin Yi looked at the huge space factory that had been simulated on the huge display, and the whole person couldn't help but clench his fists.
Although I have seen too many space factories in the technology tower, and I don't know how many times larger than the space factory I want to build, the space factories of some advanced civilizations are like a huge planet.
But it's all someone else's, and it's only what belongs to you that makes you the most excited.
Once this space factory can be built, Qin Yi will be able to build even larger spaceships, spaceships to sail in the sea of stars.
When the time comes, the starry sky of the universe is so big that it can be galloped freely.
Like Qin Yi, in the entire command and control center, many scientists and engineers had scarlet eyes, and they were as if they had taken hormones in their tiredness, and they were extremely excited.
In particular, Professor Qiu Feng and Professor Shen Gongbao, these two are old and have experienced a lot of years, and it can be said that they have witnessed Huaxia Science and Technology step by step from backwardness to the peak of the earth.
"When I was studying abroad, I always didn't understand why my supervisor, Professor Stephen, always said that you need passion to do anything, especially in the field of scientific research."
"When the Apollo program was in place, everyone in the entire Uncle Sam country was extremely excited, full of passion and pride in such a thing as a manned landing on the moon."
"At that time, scientists could work tirelessly for days and nights for this great goal, and engineers could experiment thousands of times over and over again in order to solve a problem."
"Now that I'm looking at these young faces, I finally understand something."
Professor Qiu Feng looked at the busy scene in front of him, and looked at the excited expressions on everyone's body, and he couldn't help but recall what his mentor had said when he was studying abroad.
You need to be excited to do anything, especially to do scientific research.
"It's good to be young!"
Professor Shen Gongbao nodded, and then said with emotion.
"We are fortunate to be able to see that we have such a glorious day, but we are also unfortunate because we are old, and the great era that is coming is so magnificent."
"Think about it, if one day, we can also drive a space warship in the sea of stars to cut through thorns and thorns, break the waves, see the vast universe, and look for aliens, just thinking about it makes people hate to borrow from the sky for another five hundred years."
……
On the huge airport, the astronauts who had finished their training began to board the anti-gravity spacecraft, and each anti-gravity spacecraft was already filled with parts and supplies from the space factory.
The ground crew began to evacuate, and the huge hatch of the anti-gravity spacecraft began to close slowly, and soon, on the huge field, the anti-gravity spaceships were like knights ready to go, and they would immediately attack the vast starry sky with just one order.
"Buzz~Buzz!"
It didn't take long to wait for a shrill siren to sound throughout the sprawling industrial base.
As soon as they heard this voice, everyone couldn't help but be shocked, and the largest project in the history of Galaxy Technology Group was finally about to begin.
Huangping Town, outside the Galaxy Aerospace Industrial Base, on the top of the mountains closest to the industrial base, one building after another.
News media reporters from all over the world couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this voice.
Galaxy Technology Group is relatively low-key, although it announced its own grand blueprint to the outside world, but it was not disclosed to the public when it was implemented, so there was no way for everyone to enter the industrial base to report.
However, this does not stop everyone's enthusiasm, such a huge project, Galaxy Technology Group has now become a benchmark for the trend of scientific and technological development, which is related to the vital interests of countless people.
So since you can't get in, everyone will try their best to report it.
"God~ How much money does Galaxy Technology Group have?"
"There are hundreds of these gravity-defying spaceships."
Someone couldn't help but sigh as they looked at the neatly arranged anti-gravity spaceships on the huge parking field.
You must know that even if it is a powerful country, the anti-gravity spacecraft in its hands are very limited, even Japan, which is the most desperate and closest to China, has only more than 10 anti-gravity spaceships in their hands so far.
Now I see hundreds of anti-gravity spaceships, each of which is worth hundreds of billions of Chinese dollars in the eyes of these foreigners, and these more than 300 anti-gravity spaceships, just thinking about it will be stunned by this astronomical number.
Soon, however, with a series of shrill sirens, the anti-gravity spaceships began to slowly rise into the air, as if a building was rising from the ground, and like a mountain rising.
In the sunlight, these gravity-defying spacecraft cast a huge shadow, which enveloped a large area, and in the blink of an eye, the sky and the earth became extremely dark.
Soon, however, the shadows became smaller and smaller, and the anti-gravity spaceships soon disappeared from view and entered the vast expanse of space.
