Zhou Yu was very surprised, he didn't expect that the research and development of hollow bubbles would really have such important results.

This summary meeting is just a routine meeting, and the main purpose is to lay out the direction of research and development in the next period of time.

Because the time for Xinghuo Technology to obtain the hollow bubble is too short, it is only a little more than a month, and it is really surprising that it has produced results in such a short time.

Zhou Yu briefly laid out the next research and development direction.

"We can't learn from the genetic material of extraterrestrial life, and we can now abandon the exploration of the function of this genetic material.

We can't really use genetic means to reproduce extraterrestrial life, that would be death.

The organelles of extraterrestrial life cells, we must intensify our efforts to explore, it can become the size of a 100,000-ton giant ship, and the organelles of extraterrestrial life must have a special role.

Such a large organelle will certainly not be able to be used in the cells of life on earth, but we can analyze the function of this organelle and use the principle of biomimicry to develop some advanced instruments and equipment.

We should focus on exploring the materials of hollow bubbles and the mysterious substances inside hollow bubbles, and the research results of these two substances can really promote our scientific and technological progress. ”

Zhou Yu only determines the main R&D direction, and the specific R&D details are designed by the scientists in charge of the specific project.

This summary meeting ended here, and Zhou Yu and Li Qihua rushed to the basic force field laboratory together.

They were on the flying car, and Zhou Yu asked curiously: "Director Li Qihua, why is your project progressing so quickly?"

Other projects have just finished exploring the properties of hollow bubbles, and your lab has already produced results. ”

Li Qihua's eyes turned into a slit with a smile, and he introduced: "We have been studying the materials used in small nuclear fusion reactors.

As soon as there is a breakthrough in the material of the vessel where the thermonuclear reaction takes place, our small nuclear fusion reactors can be assembled directly.

In the past, our experimental idea was to use extreme compression, as long as the material was compressed to a density close to that of a white dwarf. That would produce a thermonuclear reaction without any problem.

However, a white dwarf star will only form a terminal star when a star as large as the Sun collapses gravitationally, and it is the end of the Sun's life.

Forming such a high density requires an extremely large energy and gravitational field, which our current technology simply cannot achieve.

The limit of our technical strength is to reach one-third of the density of white dwarfs, that is, the density of the outer walls of hollow bubbles.

By means of extreme compression, this high-density material is produced that can already withstand the temperatures required for thermonuclear reactions.

But its lifespan is too low to sustain a thermonuclear reaction for only one hour.

We discovered the outer wall material of the hollow bubble, only to find that the particles that make it up are not tightly bound together.

There are also certain gaps between the particles, but through the layout of various particles, the nuclear forces between the individual particles pull each other to form a stable structure. ”

When Li Qihua finished speaking, he realized that he had not controlled himself well, and he made a tirade.

After he finished speaking, he gave another example: "Our previous method was to arrange the roots of the logs together as a fence.

Technology is constantly advancing, logs become planks, they cling to each other, and this fence becomes very strong.

The technology of alien civilizations is not wooden fences, they are barbed wire.

Even if the gap in the barbed wire fence is larger, it is harder than a wooden fence. ”

After hearing this, Zhou Yu sighed: "Microscopic particles also have their own laws, we have to find the laws between microscopic particles, and with the help of the laws of the particles themselves, we can get twice the result with half the effort."

Now that we are pioneers, we should sum up the law, and this is our responsibility. ”

Zhou Yu and Li Qihua came to the Basic Force Field Laboratory, which was originally a gravity laboratory.

Now that the basic projects are being stripped away to the junior science labs, this is now full of extremely difficult projects.

Li Qihua led Zhou Yu to observe a small nuclear fusion reactor.

There are many types of small fusion reactors here, the largest being a cylinder 10 meters long and 5 meters in diameter at the bottom.

The smallest nuclear fusion reactor is a cylinder 5 cm long and 5 cm diameter at the bottom.

Don't look at the big difference in the size of these fusion reactors, but they are all small fusion reactors.

These are small fusion reactors, which have a completely different meaning from the nuclear fusion reactors of the original nuclear fusion power stations.

In the past, the nuclear fusion reactor of a nuclear fusion power station only referred to the core of the thermonuclear reaction.

The current nuclear fusion reactor includes a series of ancillary equipment such as cooling device, power generation device, and energy storage device.

These small nuclear fusion reactors can be directly equipped with engineering mechs to supply energy to engineering mechs.

Li Qihua excitedly introduced: "Mr. Zhou, our small nuclear fusion reactor has been tested in detail.

They vary in power, but they have an extremely long service life and can be overhauled for 10 years without major repairs with just routine maintenance.

Small nuclear fusion reactors use helium-3 as an energy source, and as long as the supply of raw materials is stable, it can continuously generate electricity without interruption.

Small fusion reactors are very safe, and we have three separate safety systems.

Even if a small nuclear fusion reactor is at the site of a nuclear explosion, it will not be destroyed in the process of being completely destroyed. ”

Zhou Yu said with satisfaction: "I believe there is no problem with the reliability of the equipment you have developed, how is its energy output?" Is it possible to output energy stably?

The gravitational engine has been mothballing, but it doesn't have a large enough stable energy source to power it.

Now, as long as the output of a small nuclear fusion reactor is stable, it can be used as an energy source for the gravitational engine.

Once the gravitational engine is put into use, we at Xinghuo Technology can develop large spacecraft.

It is even possible to arrange a space city in orbit around the Earth. ”

Li Qihua knows that one of the key requirements for small nuclear fusion reactors is to output stable energy.

He proudly said: "Our small nuclear fusion reactor fully meets the indicators set by the project.

Small nuclear fusion reactors do not fluctuate much except when they are started.

As long as there is an advanced rectifier, a small nuclear fusion reactor can fully power the gravitational engine. ”

Zhou Yu inspects small nuclear fusion reactors in the basic force field laboratory, and he looks at various data of small nuclear fusion reactors.

The data from these small nuclear fusion reactors perfectly met the design requirements without compromising at all.

With fusion reactors that can output huge amounts of energy, some extremely energy-intensive projects can also be launched.

For example, the gravitational engine, which consumes a lot of energy, can be used to build new spacecraft around it with the energy support of a nuclear fusion reactor.

The gravitational engine was put into use, and Xinghuo Technology could directly build a spacecraft comparable to a 200,000-ton giant ship.

They can even equip an asteroid with a gravitational engine that will fly directly to their designated location.
