Chapter 123: Successful Launch

Tomorrow will soon come, when Liu Xuan woke up in a daze, it was already tomorrow's noon, according to the plan, the afternoon was the time to test the new thruster, the time was still sufficient, Liu Xuan rested very comfortably yesterday, and he was going to work seriously today.

Qin Ming and the three of them were even more active than Liu Xuan, when he Liu Xuan woke up, those three people didn't know where to go, Liu Xuan also chuckled in his heart, and thought to himself: It's over, it is estimated that the three of them will have to find a way to rectify themselves again. After all, Liu Xuan's last experience of being tied up is still fresh in my memory. Now just thinking about it, it's just a little scary.

After hurriedly solving his personal problems, Liu Xuan also hurriedly ran towards the rocket launch experimental base behind, when he saw the rocket launch base behind, he just glanced at it simply, and saw Qin Ming and the three people standing on the side commanding, Liu Xuan really did not guess wrong, as the chief designer, when he was still lazy to sleep, Qin Ming and the three people had already begun to devote themselves to their own work, the most important thing is that this is not their own work, It's the job of designer Liu Xuan.

It's all come to this point, Liu Xuan has no choice, after all, he can't run anymore, so he can only bite the bullet and walk in the direction of Qin Ming and the three of them, Qin Ming and the three of them sometimes look at the research room, but just casually, they saw Liu Xuan walking towards them, and their serious face instantly turned into a playful face. Seeing this, Liu Xuan also secretly screamed in his heart, I am afraid that he will be "inescapable" this time.

"Designer, you're really early." Seeing Liu Xuan coming over, Xuan Mu also said jokingly, the three of them are not very important people have been here for a long time, and Liu Xuan, who is the chief designer, is only here now, no matter how you look at it, it is a little unreasonable.

"Hehe, that, I've slept a little, how is it now?" Liu Xuan was also very embarrassed, it was a fact that he was late, and there was nothing to explain, he could only accompany the smiling face, and on the other hand, he could only try to change the topic, so that their attention could be diverted to this experiment.

"It's okay, fortunately, you have arranged your work before you were lazy, otherwise today's scheduled date would have been postponed!" Qin obviously knew that this was Liu Xuan delaying time, but he didn't say anything about Liu Xuan in the matter of being lazy, he was still very relieved about Liu Xuan's arrangement, these researchers had already assembled and debugged according to Liu Xuan's arrangement, even if Liu Xuan's existence was temporarily missing, they could also carry out relevant work by themselves.

Liu Xuan also smiled easily, listening to Qin Ming's tone, it seems that this time he knew that he had escaped again, Liu Xuan was also glad in his heart, he had already arranged today's work yesterday, in fact, he was not deliberately late, that dream was like a ghost wrapped around his body, as long as he entered the dream, Liu Xuan would dream of that dream, Liu Xuan himself was also calculating, after this matter was completed, he would have to find time to see a doctor, Otherwise, there will really be something wrong with my psychology.

At this time, the assembly work is also in the later stage, thanks to the calculation of Liu Xuan's team before, there are no problems in the assembly process, everything is carried out in a tense and orderly manner, Liu Xuan's existence is more of a psychological role, they all know what they should do, no longer need to be commanded by Liu Xuan a little bit, Liu Xuan's early and late arrival is just a matter of attitude, of course, Liu Xuan also has the identity of a supervisor.

Finally reluctantly pacified his three friends, Liu Xuan finally had time to take a closer look at the main body of the entire rocket. The thrusters have already been installed, and now the main thing is to install the main body of the rocket and the main body of the thrusters together, and there are no technical problems with this matter itself. This is also the reason why Liu Xuan has confidence in this matter, they have already done a good job of precision things, and the rest is not too difficult.

There is still a lot of time, and now it is noon, in order to better observe the state of the rocket, the scheduled launch time is actually five o'clock in the afternoon, which is why Liu Xuan is not panicking, after all, it is really useless to come early. His role now is more to supervise them to do their job.

Time passed little by little, and the four of them were also divided into two groups, Liu Xuan and Qin Ming each took Wang Meng and Xuan Mu to supervise, the main person in charge of the two parts of the rocket this time was Liu Xuan and Qin Ming, there was no one who knew the performance of the rocket better than them, Qin Ming was responsible for the main part, and Liu Xuan was responsible for the thruster part.

However, this is a pity for Xuan Mu and Wang Meng, they are not directly involved in this matter itself, and some places are not incomprehensible at all, and now following Qin Ming and Liu Xuan is like two little followers, and they will not do anything else, they can only follow them from one side of the rocket to the other, just like visiting a museum.

Time flies, around three o'clock in the afternoon, the entire rocket has been assembled, the whole part of the rocket is underground, only a little of the top of the rocket is exposed to the ground, which is also convenient for installation, and some large devices are installed from top to bottom is also a little simpler. Not only that, but it also has other advantages underground, such as being easy to preserve, but avoiding detection by federal surveillance satellites.

After all, the Star Ring Company is not an ordinary small company, and the current Star Ring Company does not sell any interstellar spaceship parts separately, but more for the Federation to produce planetary-class interstellar battleship related things, and the Federation supervises this is also reasonable and legal, and it has also been confirmed by the Star Ring Company, but in order to prevent his own design from being exposed, Liu Xuan also has to use this method, and now above the sky above their heads, they work in low earth orbit, but there are surveillance satellites, They didn't dare to be careless.

Although Liu Xuan has a very close relationship with the Federal Assembly, he also knows the separation of public and private, and in general, this new propeller is also a trade secret of Transwarp, which is his own private thing, and Liu Xuan's relevant concealment is also justified and protected by relevant laws.

By four o'clock, the entire venue was completely empty. At this time, the place where they are is still at the turn of summer and autumn, although it is already four o'clock, the sun is still very sufficient, and the relevant supercomputer inspection has begun, all of which do not need Liu Xuan's other orders, these researchers who follow Liu Xuan to conduct research have their own work experience, which is a researcher secretly transferred by Liu Xuan within the Transwarp Company using his privileges.

Their launch hall is a hall to put it simply, but it is just a huge room with dozens of supercomputers in it, and Liu Xuan and his three friends also have a chance to stop and rest during the final inspection. They basically supervised the entire main body of the rocket without stopping one step, climbing up and down, and the four disappeared without stopping their steps.

Now that all the work is ready, all that remains is to wait for their new thrusters to be launched when the time is up. There is also a Pluto probe on board, of course, the most critical thing this time is to test the performance of the new thrusters, and the launch of the Pluto probe is just a way for them to hide their eyes.

However, today's weather is not very good, it is already half past four in the afternoon, half an hour of time, the sun has disappeared, dark clouds began to sweep up, really to say, in fact, there is no big impact on Liu Xuan's launch, many sensors and detectors will not be affected by this dark cloud.

There were still ten minutes to go, and the clouds above the sky still showed no sign of disappearing, and there was no sign of rain, just hanging as simply.

The time finally came, Liu Xuan's four people were already in their place, with an order, the thruster at the tail of the rocket began to work, and at the beginning it was still the most ordinary nuclear fuel, and the experimental site of Liu Xuan's plan was not this place, but an asteroid, which contained the fuel he needed, that is, those extremely ordinary asteroids.

A huge roar sounded, and the rocket body also flew out of the rocket test base behind the Star Ring Company, flying towards the sky, and soon penetrated the thick dark clouds and disappeared under the gloomy sky.

The related probes on the above also began to work normally, and the relevant data was also launched back to the supercomputer on the ground for the first time, and these researchers were also relieved to see these data, but now it seems that the basic functions of the new thruster are still no problem, and the rest is to test other functions.

The two most important ones are the acceleration system and the energy conversion system. Theoretically, the acceleration system of the new thrusters could accelerate the entire spacecraft to 10 percent of the speed of light, which is an absolute leap forward.

The energy conversion system, as the name suggests, is to convert very common materials, including stones, into nuclear fuel, which can be used as fuel for new thrusters to consume.

Both of these are the most critical functions, but there is no way to test them near low earth orbit, which is prepared for long voyages, the acceleration system is planned to be tested between Mars and the asteroid belt, and the energy conversion system needs to be tested near the asteroid belt, which will take time, at least today, it is impossible to test.

The four of them saw that the new thruster was successfully launched, and they were also relieved to leave the launch control room.
