Zhou Yu was observing a small fusion reactor when he saw researchers in the lab begin to direct experimental assistants to load the largest fusion reactor into a truck.

"Director Li Qihua, has your small nuclear fusion reactor project been successfully developed? It's where it's going to be shipped. ”

Zhou Yu knew that the researchers had taken the fusion reactor away, and they must have tested it.

Xinghuo Technology has many projects, and it is centered on nuclear fusion reactors.

All the scientists of the company are very confident that they will develop a nuclear fusion reactor and that the project will be successful, but the timing of success is uncertain.

In such a short period of time, only a small number of supporting projects such as spaceships and engineering mecha have been developed.

"Mr. Zhou, the nuclear fusion reactor has been tested in detail, and it basically meets the design capabilities.

If you look at the size of the fusion reactor they are holding, you know that this is a fusion reactor for spacecraft.

Now only spacecraft are equipped with gravitational engines, which must be powered by the largest nuclear fusion reactors.

I'm going to the spaceship factory to deliver nuclear fusion reactors to them, and Mr. Zhou and I will go to the spacecraft factory to see the situation. Li Qihua invited.

Zhou Yu also wanted to know about the performance of the spaceship, and he knew the design performance of the spaceship.

But he didn't know if the engineers would be able to give full play to the design performance.

They took the sky train and came to the industrial zone of Yanjing Daxing District.

This is the main factory gathering place of Xinghuo Technology, and most of the high-precision equipment is produced in this industrial area.

Yuan Keqing was waiting for them at the spaceship production plant, after seeing Zhou Yu and Li Qihua arrive with a nuclear fusion reactor.

"We completed all the spacecraft systems except the energy system three months ago," he said happily.

We are waiting for the arrival of the fusion reactor, which is the very core of the energy system.

Without understanding the performance of fusion reactors, we simply cannot design the energy system of a spacecraft. ”

Li Qihua said with a relaxed expression: "I don't expect it now, and I have already built a nuclear fusion reactor."

This is a miniaturized and controllable nuclear fusion reactor completed by more than 10 laboratories of our research institute.

It only takes five fusion reactors that we ship to support the gravitational engine to operate at rated power. ”

When Yuan Keqing heard Li Qihua say this, he relaxed.

I thought to myself: "The gravitational engine was developed by Li Qihua's team, and he knows the situation of the gravitational engine best."

The nuclear fusion reactor is placed in the basic force field laboratory, which is to test the gravitational engine, and Li Qihua has mastered the functions of the nuclear fusion reactor, when the data of the gravitational engine changes.

Five nuclear fusion reactors give the gravitational engine function, which can reach the rated power, has slightly exceeded the third cosmic speed of 16.7 kilometers per second, reaching a speed of 17 kilometers per second in space.

Because of the limitations of the material, the gravitational engine could not reach the maximum speed for which it was designed, one-tenth of the speed of light.

But its rated cruising speed has slightly exceeded the minimum speed designed.

As long as the spaceship has enough energy, it can already break free from the gravitational pull of the sun and fly out of the solar system.

The plant's engineers took over the transported fusion reactor and designed the spacecraft's energy system based on the reactor's performance.

This ability to design and manufacture at the same time, which was previously not available in any factory on the planet, can now be easily achieved.

This is the effect of the large-scale application of quantum computers.

While engineers were designing the spacecraft's energy system, Yuan Keqing led Zhou Yu and Li Qihua on a tour of the spacecraft.

They came to a huge factory building and saw the spaceship that was basically assembled.

The shape of the spaceship is very simple, it is a cylindrical shape with a spherical shape.

The center is cylindrical, and the ends of the spaceship are hemispherical, and it looks like chopsticks placed on the ground.

The length of the spacecraft is about 500 meters, and the diameter of the circle is about 45 meters.

Yuan Keqing introduced the spaceship to Zhou Yu and them.

"Spacecraft mainly operate in space, it doesn't need to think about air resistance, any form factor design is fine.

The spacecraft is designed in this form factor to maximize the use of space within the spacecraft.

The sphere had the most space, but it was not very easy to steer and not as flexible as the current spaceships.

If the gravitational engine can exert its rated power, the spacecraft can carry up to 250,000 tons.

Rated at speeds of up to 17 km/s, it flies very fast.

Reducing the power output of the gravitational engine also allows you to adjust the speed of the spacecraft at any time. ”

After Yuan Keqing introduced the basic performance of the spacecraft, he took Zhou Yu, Li Qihua and others to visit the interior of the spacecraft.

The interior of the spacecraft is very wide, and the front end is the control center of the spacecraft, and the control system with a quantum computer as the core is installed.

Gravitational devices provide proper gravity to the spaceship, making life more comfortable for people on the spaceship.

They visited the spacecraft for a while, and the engineers came to report that they had designed the spacecraft's energy system and were in the process of installing the energy system on the spacecraft.

Yuan Keqing said with emotion: "The various systems of the spacecraft have finally been successfully developed.

If it weren't for the successful development of a fusion reactor, even if our spacecraft was advanced, it would have been mothballed indefinitely. ”

Zhou Yu stared at the spacecraft and asked, "President Yuan Keqing, after the spacecraft has installed the nuclear fusion reactor, can it be tested?"

There are so many new technologies used in spacecraft that if they can be tested, they can directly test the operation of fusion reactors, the effect of gravitational engines, and the many new technologies on spacecraft. ”

Yuan Keqing thought for a moment and said confidently: "There is no problem at all." Other new technologies on board the spacecraft have been tested many times. The gravitational engine has also been tested several times.

Only the energy system of the spacecraft has just been designed and has not yet been put to a more rigorous test.

Our processing level is extremely high, and we can basically achieve 100% of the design level of the equipment. I believe the spaceship will officially set sail. ”

Engineers are installing the spacecraft's energy system, and Yuan Keqing is also preparing for the spacecraft's test work.

Zhou Yu hopes that the spacecraft can be put into use quickly, and the huge carrying capacity of the spacecraft can be used as the main force in space development.

Only when a complete transportation and logistics system is built between the Earth and the Moon can the country officially develop the Moon.

If the spaceship is really successful, it will be able to travel within the solar system, and humans can also use space resources.

Human beings can only use the resources on the earth and continue to squeeze the earth through scientific and technological means.

The main cause of global warming, air and water pollution is the unrestrained demand from nature.

The resources on Earth are limited, but the resources in space are almost unlimited.

The emergence of spacecraft is the starting point for the large-scale development of space resources.
