Jim Bridenstine only brought one assistant with him, and when he came to Tianqing Industries, he still felt strange in his heart.

It is inconceivable that the Chinese people have come up with an aerospace vehicle with a range that can cover the Earth-Moon system, and which scientific research institution did not start the research and development of a new type of aircraft in a ten-year cycle? It's going to take five years to be shorter, and now you still tell him that he was developed by Tianqing Technology Group?

What international jokes?

How long has this company been around?

Jim Bridenstine still doesn't believe that this is the contribution of Tianqing Technology, it must be that the Chinese people deliberately detained the technology on Tianqing Technology, and they must have deliberately concealed a lot of information.

The NASA administrator had already seen two young Chinese people walking towards him, one of whom he knew, and it was Gu Cheng, although this was the first time they had met, and Jim had seen him in newspapers and videos.

"Fortunately, Mr. Gu, the life and death of the six astronauts all depend on your 'Heavenly Blade Project'." Jim Bridenstine shook his hand.

Gu Cheng smiled politely, shook his hand and didn't talk nonsense, and immediately asked: "Did you bring the pilot information?" ”

"Parker."

Jim Bridenstine glanced back at his assistant, who was carrying a small suitcase and immediately handed it over, and Zhou Huang next to him took the box and went to the control room.

Xiaoqing: "Data uploading..."

On the other side, after giving the information, Jim Bridenstine hurriedly asked, "How are you going to carry out the rescue?" ”

Hearing this, Gu Cheng said simply: "Please come with me." ”

The director of NASA was in high spirits, and immediately followed, and after a while, he followed Gu Cheng to the indoor take-off and landing platform of the Sky Blade fighter, and at this moment, there were thirty or forty busy workers in the empty take-off and landing hall at this moment, and Professor Xu and they were all there.

Jim Bridenstine followed him to the interior of the low-rise canopy building, and the two foreigners were first attracted by the flying machines in the middle of the hall.

"Mr. Gu, don't tell me, that's it?" Jim Bridenstine said in an American accent of English, he is not an expert in aircraft design, but he also understands something, and the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft in front of him gave him the first feeling that it was terrible, how could this fly?

Another physique of this aircraft will have a range of 3,000 kilometers if it survives.

"That's right, that's it." Gu Cheng told him very clearly.

"......" Jim Bridenstine was stunned, hesitated for a moment as if he had thought of something, and was suddenly shocked: "Could it be that its power source is controlled nuclear fusion?" ”

Oh, God!

The more Jim Bridenstine thought about it, the more incredible it became, and he didn't think that the Chinese would joke at such a moment, first of all, he could be sure of that.

Only controlled nuclear fusion as a power source can meet the requirements, and Jim Bridenstine couldn't help but look at this lightweight flying machine again, and his heart was even more shocked.

The Chinese have not only achieved controlled nuclear fusion, but have also achieved miniaturization?

The so-called "Heavenly Blade Project" has hidden so many shocking secrets, and Loma's CFR project is currently hailed as the most likely to be realized in the field of controlled nuclear fusion in North America, but it is still eighteen streets behind.

Damn, the Chinese have come up with miniaturized controlled nuclear fusion, which is a big thing enough to shake the world!

"Three minutes to take off!"

Xiaoqing's voice sounded in the hall, and at the same time, Gu Cheng looked at the Sky Blade One and said with a smile: "I heard that Ms. Vera, the chief scientist of your country's Loma Company, is playing controlled fusion, so I won't play this energy source, the power of the Sky Blade fighter comes from another energy source, energy that can be seen everywhere." ”

“What？”

Not a controlled fusion energy source?

Who's visible?

Jim Bridenstine was stunned for a while, and suddenly looked at Gu Cheng with doubts, and seeing that the other party didn't want to reveal too much, he didn't ask, and he couldn't ask about it.

immediately looked at the Sky Blade fighter, and at this moment, Menna climbed along the ladder truck and entered the cockpit of the Sky Blade One.

This saw that the NASA director panicked again.

Crazy crazy, how can they send a child to fly an aerospace vehicle to the rescue?

"One minute countdown to takeoff!"

The hall once again resounded with Xiaoqing's announcement, Jim Bridenstine had too many questions in his heart, but he had to watch silently, although he was the director of NASA, but this was someone else's territory, not the Houston Space Center.

The midfield dome of the take-off and landing platform slowly opened, Professor Xu and others were also very excited, whether it was the first flight of the Sky Blade, or the next mission, it will be destined to go into the history of human manned spaceflight at a great moment, the small step of the Sky Blade is also a big step for mankind, this step has taken mankind into the great prelude to the age of space exploration.

Jim Bridenstine couldn't help but be shocked again when he saw that some of the crew members of the take-off and landing platform had already left the scene.

VTOL?

Just when he had this idea, the Sky Blade One responded, and under the witness of Gu Cheng and everyone else, Meng Na manipulated the Sky Blade fighter to start the vector propulsion system of the compound and auxiliary engines.

There are a total of 7 sub-engines of the Sky Blade fighter, and the thrust of each one is actually comparable to the main engine of the main fighters of various countries in the world today, but these sub-engines are still 7 younger brothers compared to the Sky Blade twin-engine main engine that really has monster-level thrust.

"OMG ......" Jim Bridenstine is now in the Nth shock.

The Sky Blade fighter is not the world's first aircraft that can take off and land vertically, the British's Harrier fighter and the current F35 series have this capability.

However, the flexible maneuver of the Sky Blade fighter was able to explode, and the fighter rose smoothly into the air without a roar that tore the tinnitus.

In front of everyone's attention, the Sky Blade One rose very quickly beyond the dome, and Mona activated the main engine system, and the next moment the Sky Blade disappeared into the night sky.

Bang ——!

A sudden explosion above the dome shook the unprepared NASA administrator and his glasses crooked.

This is the result of the Sky Blade fighter breaking through the speed of sound, and the acceleration at that moment also made Mona's whole body instantly bear an overload of 10+g, and the fighter is still in a state of acceleration, but her state is extremely stable.

Zhou Huang looked up at a dazzling flash of light in the night sky through the dome, and subconsciously said: "Boss, I think the name is wrong, it shouldn't be called the Heavenly Blade Fighter, it should be called the Thunder Fighter, this name is a perfect match." ”

More than half of the photon energy released by the light core will be lost, and these energies are released in the form of photoionization, and the power system of the fighter itself does not need so much energy, so most of it is "thrown".

And the phenomenon seen is that at this moment, the tail nozzle of the Sky Blade fighter has sparks and lightning all the way, especially in the night sky, and a long flash trajectory is extremely obvious.

At this moment, most of the citizens walking on the streets in the Changfeng District of Shangdu heard a sudden sonic boom.

The next moment, the streets were lively, and the local citizens looked up at the starry sky, or pointed at it from afar, took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and there was a lot of discussion.

"Look, what's that?"

"A beam of white light, so gorgeous."

"It's a meteor, a meteor, Shang can actually see a meteor, hurry up and make a wish!"

"Stupid, a little physics common sense, okay? Where have you ever heard that meteors fly into the sky? Newton will be revived by you. ”

"Uh, yes, meteors fall from the sky......"

"Could it be a UFO?"

This bizarre picture of the sudden occurrence of Shangdu quickly spread on the Internet and in the circle of friends.
