Although Lu Zhou could feel that the two pilots were somewhat reluctant to their new identities, it was gratifying that they did not bring their emotions into their work and study, and completed every task very seriously.

And what makes Lu Zhou the most is that the two elites who are worthy of being selected from the test flight team, whether it is the underwater simulated weightless environment out of the cabin training, or the anti-pressure training in the simulated overweight environment in the centrifuge, they have achieved quite excellent results.

As for subjects such as skydiving and wilderness survival training, there is no need to say much.

After becoming a full-fledged pilot, these things are compulsory for them.

In fact, compared with the high-thrust manned rocket, the Xiangrui does not have particularly high requirements for the physical fitness of the members, and the acceleration in the atmospheric environment is twice the G value, and after entering the low earth orbit, the Hall thruster will switch to the outer space mode, and fly with a lower engine thrust when the thrust-to-weight ratio is prioritized, so even ordinary people can take this spacecraft.

But having said that, you still have to be well prepared.

And just like that, time passed day by day, and soon it was December.

It is also the annual Nobel Prize Dinner, which is held as scheduled in the Blue Room in Stockholm.

Although Lu Zhou, like other living Nobel laureates, received an invitation from the Swedish royal family, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also asked him if he was interested in attending diplomatic occasions, Lu Zhou politely refused after thinking about it again.

First, the research work is too busy to leave, and the second is that it is really not interesting to force others. He still prefers to go up and receive awards than to watch others present awards. Although the food in the Blue Room is quite missable, it is not enough for him to miss it so much that he has to go.

In addition, the winners of this year's Physics Prize were David O'Sharon and Arthur C. Gossard for their work in the field of semiconductor spintronics.

The former received his Ph.D. in physics from Cornell University and was a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of California, Santa Barbara, while the latter is a major in materials science and computer engineering, also on the faculty of Santa Barbara.

There are very few outstanding scholars who are proficient in two fields at the same time in today's highly subdivided discipline, and it is even more difficult to make outstanding achievements in two different fields. However, it is precisely because this is a difficulty that ordinary people cannot accomplish that the importance of the research results of the two is even more prominent.

In particular, the discovery of quantitatively confined Stark effect and Hall effect fractional quantization not only means a major physical breakthrough, but also has a profound impact on the chip industry.

In fact, as early as several years ago, there were constantly predictions that the two would win the award, but unfortunately they have been with them all the way to the present.

Now that this award has finally fallen into the hands of the two, it is well deserved.

It is worth mentioning that there have been websites that have predicted whether Professor Lu will be considered for this year's Nobel Prize in Physics, and many people have even bet on him on a well-known betting website.

However, the final result is as Lu Zhou himself expected, and the Nobel Prize jury will not consider awarding awards to the group's research results, even if the research on controlled fusion is good enough.

However, Lu Zhou estimates that this is only one of the reasons, and the main reason is probably because he has just won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Otherwise, the theoretical model of plasma turbulence will be more than enough to promote the world's controllable fusion engineering research.

No matter how bad it is, there is He-3 atomic probe technology.

As a generous man, he didn't mind sharing the millions of kroner with his old friend, Professor Lazersson.

At the same time, on the day when Lu Zhou decided to drop the Nobel Prize dinner, news came from East Asia Power.

After a year of construction, the Xihe fusion reactor was finally completed in Daya Bay, and it is expected to complete the final commissioning before going online by the end of the year, and start delivering clean and cheap electricity to the Liangguang, Shenzhen and Xiangjiang areas on New Year's Day.

At present, the installed capacity of the power station has reached 11,000 M, which has exceeded the total installed capacity of the original Daya Bay Nuclear Power Station. In the future, Xihedui will continue to expand the number of generating units, and eventually keep up with the total installed capacity of Pangudui of 100,000M.

Also in this December, the Southeast Asia cross-regional power grid project has entered the final stage, and the Jinwu and Houyi reactors located in the north and central respectively have also completed the first phase of the project, which will be delivered in the autumn of next year at the latest.

At that time, controlled fusion will cover the power grids of East China, South China, North China, and Central China in all aspects, and gradually phase out some highly polluting thermal power stations.

It is said that because of the Houyi dui incident, some people at the last meeting put forward a proposal to demolish the Three Gorges, and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River were returned to a green landscape of green waters and green mountains. It's just that the pros and cons of this matter are very controversial in the academic community, so the discussion will not be resolved in the end.

On the other hand, with the completion of the Xihe reactor, the desire of other ITER member countries to negotiate has also become stronger.

If a year ago, they were confident that they could replicate the success of Pangudui in five or six years at most, but now, regardless of whether they are still so confident in their own academics and ITER itself, China is gradually closing the gap in the energy field and promoting the energy revolution. The determination and courage of their lives have made it impossible for them to wait like this any longer.

Lu Zhou is not very clear about the specific progress of the negotiations, nor does he know what exactly the country has exchanged from European and American countries, but judging from the fact that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs invited him to visit Stockholm with the delegation, the progress should be quite smooth.

After all, if the negotiations don't go well, the authorities won't dare to let him, the chief designer of the fusion project, take the risk.

Thinking that he had missed so many interesting things, Lu Zhou, who was standing at the door of the training room, couldn't help but sigh.

Looking at the two people lying on the vibration test bench with their teeth chattering, he said with some regret in his tone.

"Envy, ......"

Wang Peng, who was standing next to Lu Zhou, was slightly stunned.

"Envy?"

Looking at the two pilots who were lying on the vibration test bench and "wanting to die", Wang Peng's eyes when he looked at Lu Zhou suddenly became strange.

What's there to envy about this thing......

"Well," not noticing Wang Peng's eyes, Lu Zhou nodded and said casually, "Don't you want to go to the sky?" ”

Wang Peng: "Heaven ...... Do you mean going to space? ”

"Or else?"

Wang Peng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "...... I probably hadn't ever thought about flying that high. ”

Lu Zhou sighed and asked, "What is the maximum height at which you can skydive?" ”

Wang Peng: "The highest one...... It's about six thousand meters. ”

Generally speaking, parachuting of airborne troops is completed at an altitude of less than 1,000 meters, and at this time, the air temperature and air pressure outside the plane will not drop too much, and the parachutists will not face the danger of freezing or lack of oxygen.

Jumping from a height of more than 5,000 meters is a dangerous thing even for special forces. Unless it's a last resort, such as when the plane is approaching a sensitive area and can't descend altitude, no one will choose to skydive.

"Is it more than 6,000 meters high?" I don't know what I'm thinking, Lu Zhou smiled, and threw down a sentence that was difficult for ordinary people to understand, "Maybe you will wait a few years before you return to the army, parachuting at an altitude of 1,000 kilometers is commonplace." ”

A thousand kilometers?

Wang Peng was subconsciously stunned, and then smiled.

Unexpectedly, Professor Lu, who has always been rigorous, also made mistakes in the unit......

Parachuting from a height of 1,000 kilometers, I am afraid that when I wait for someone to come down, I will become a popsicle.
