Chapter Seventy-Eight: Space
The Void, a massive steel machine floating in space, its shadow looming over the background of the ocean-blue Earth behind it.
On the fuselage of the machine, countless astronauts in spacesuits crawled around on it in a bulky but cute way, and occasionally someone activated the thrusters of the spacesuit, and a puff of gas came out, and it immediately broke away from its original orbit like a frightened bird, distinguishing it from the large army of companions around it.
This is the cosmic deep space No. 1 space station that is about to be completed, it is the largest space station ever built by mankind, compared with the original of his ancestors, its size is not a little bit bigger, it is 190 meters long, the cross-sectional area is about 50 meters in diameter, weighing more than 1,200 tons, the solar thin-film cells made of new materials on both wings are open, and the wingspan is several kilometers away. Even under normal circumstances, it can carry about 30 astronauts to work in space for a long time, and it is a veritable giant in Earth orbit today.
This space station was built for the Space Force, naturally.
This is the most crucial link in the construction of the space force system, which is mainly responsible for transit, supply, command, and information and communication work in space.
With the help of such a huge reserve of personnel and materials as the Deep Space 1 space station, it is possible for mankind to complete the installation and commissioning of more than 5,000 tons of man-made space equipment that has been launched from the surface one after another over the past few months. Just like the most important equipment in the construction of human ports on the earth, the crane tower and the airport command center.
The Deep Space 1 space station and its sister Deep Space 2 are the command centers of the Space Force in space.
Now, due to the preparation work of the PDC, the number of human beings stationed in the earth's space orbit has suddenly jumped to more than 500 people, and the deep space 1, deep space 2, and their predecessors the International space station, are carrying astronauts and huge amounts of materials to the maximum carrying capacity to complete the ongoing construction of the space force in full swing.
Yang Jinchang and Zhang Beihai, as the commanders of Deep Space One, are also in the main control room of Deep Space One at this moment, directing Deep Space One to complete the final debugging work.
"With this big guy, what do you think the situation will be on the ground?" Zhang Beihai said to Yang Jinchang.
Yang Jinchang shook his head,
"It's hard to say! After all, although our Space Force is the most powerful force on the earth, it is not enough to stand on its own, our strength comes from the ground, and without their support, we can't fight in space! ”
"But we're enough to threaten them, aren't we?" Zhang Beihai asked rhetorically.
"Hey! You guy! Yang Jinchang smiled bitterly and looked up at Zhang Beihai, "We don't want to fight a good war, we just want to get the right to decide this war, instead of accepting the remote control of the political axes of various countries on the ground like before!" ”
For Zhang Beihai, a radical, Yang Jinchang was also really helpless.
This time, the PDC decided to attack the political axes of the countries on the earth, and the two of them and even all the members of the Space Force were supporters, but he Yang Jinchang was far from being as positive as Zhang Beihai's attitude and went so far.
As the commander of this war, as long as any soldier who is responsible for himself and the earth stands here, he will definitely support the actions of the PDC. After all, no one wants to be sent to death, and since he has joined this army, it is inevitable that he will make every effort to win the war and control the war.
In the eyes of many people, it is indeed too dangerous to command the PDC with the current joint system of the earth, and a group of bureaucrats with big butts and heads want to remotely command the most high-tech space war in human history, don't joke, this is simply joking with the future fate of mankind, this must be changed.
But as for the radical attitude of the PDC that wants to go further and even try to meddle in the political reform of the earth, this Yang Jinchang does not agree with it, the current situation on the earth is not suitable for a big move at all, and the Planetary Defense Council, as an emerging force with a weak foundation, does not have a broad political base on the earth. Thinking and acting too radically will do little to maintain the current stability of the planet. Even a careless change, a slight change may even cause chaos in the world.
Zhang Beihai looked at Yang Jinchang shaking his head, a smile appeared on his face, he knew what his old friend was thinking.
"Huh! Don't worry, old friend! Things are inevitably going the way you think, Earth, many things actually just need us to push that hand, all of them are trapped, in fact, there is no need...... Take a look at what you're looking for! He pointed to Deep Space One and the Space Force soldiers crawling around on it.
"This is the strongest power in the hands of the people of the earth, and this is the future of mankind. In fact, we don't need to make a move for many things, and most of the time all we need in global politics is deterrence, as long as we can succeed militarily, then political changes will naturally come naturally. Trust me, there will be people on earth who will help us. ”
――――――――――
PDC dares to make such a move, naturally because it thinks that it now has a certain strength.
The Space Force, which has just initially possessed combat capability, currently has three types of long-range weapons that can be used in combat.
One is the large laser weapon satellite built by China, the United States and Russia, which is one of the most cutting-edge weapons in the hands of human beings on the earth, due to the breakthrough progress of superconducting electromagnets at room temperature in the past two years, the power of the newly built energy weapons is amazing, and the power in space cannot be underestimated.
At present, there are a total of eight floating in the orbit of the earth in space, all of which are under the remote control command of the Deep Space No. 1 Space Force Command Center.
The second is the space version of the super-large electromagnetic cannon, the latest product of the United States, BBK-Type 3 Universe Terminator. Its entire module weighs more than 70 tons, and a door is installed on Deep Space 1 and Deep Space 2, this weapon also benefits from the progress of superconducting technology, and can easily hit targets hundreds of thousands of kilometers away if it is started with full power, which is extremely powerful. It's just that this electromagnetic cannon is too heavy and has high power requirements, and due to the hasty construction, the loss when it is launched and used is also very large, and it is completely immature version.
But Rao is so, and it is also the most terrifying hole card in the hands of the Space Force at present. Not only can it threaten the Moon and outer space, but more importantly, it can threaten the Earth.
With a speed of more than 5,000 kilometers per second, a special high-temperature projectile can easily destroy an entire city from space to Earth, and its power is even more amazing than that of a nuclear bomb. From the very beginning, it seems that the main consideration of this weapon is to target the earth, and its special intra-atmosphere projectile is even much more than the standard projectile used in space.
The others are all kinds of space missiles made by human beings, and some people call them space torpedoes, and in general, there is no need to divide missiles and torpedoes in space wars. Because in this case, the combat area is extremely vast, the striking distance is often tens of thousands of kilometers, and the target error is extremely large, so that the torpedo, like the missile, must also have navigation technology, otherwise it will be almost useless.
In terms of this technology, the products manufactured by the countries of the earth are wonderful, and the navigation technology used is varied, each with its own unique skills, and there are hundreds or thousands of varieties.
The Space Force is not picky, and all of them are used for use, but there are not many of them that have been carried into space for war preparation, and the Space Force's storage capacity in space is still limited after all, and it is too late to waste these things.
In addition, the Space Force also has major space centers around the world, all of which are under the command of PDC, and there are large space warships under construction, which are actually enhanced versions of spaceships, and there are also three, all of which are hundreds of tons or more, but now it seems that it is difficult to count on them in a war.
The earthlings also made efforts to prepare for space warfare by modifying a number of unmanned aerial vehicles that can be used in the space environment, and also trained an armed astronaut who can fight in space.
In short, in order to win this war, the earthlings came up with a lot of genius or stupid tricks, and on the test paper of space warfare, which humans cannot really control, the earthlings, a primary school student, worked hard to make their own answers.
