Chapter 638: Heavenly Voyage-01 Voyage Plan! Paul: I have to join!

The aerospace carrier, officially codenamed 'Tianhang-01'.

At the end of the last space test, the light-pressure engine was officially named the 'Aerospace Carrier', and the code name was quickly determined.

The main system of Tianhang-01 has been relatively perfect, and the recent work is to continue to add manned cabins, install satellite launch brackets, improve the release module of small spacecraft, and increase gravitational shield equipment and gravitational field equipment.

After a series of constructions, Spacespace's next plan was to explore Europa.

This plan has been decided, and an announcement has been made, "In the future, Tianhang-01 will fly to Jupiter and explore Europa, the most likely to have life in the solar system, and will collect as many samples of Europa as possible, and collect detailed information about Jupiter and its moons." ”

Europa, Jupiter's sixth known moon and the fourth largest of all Jupiter's moons, is called Europa because it is the second closest to Jupiter.

Compared to other planets, Europa has a much milder surface, mainly because its surface is covered in ice and the bottom is an ocean.

Some scientists believe that the Earth's oceans are home to life, and Europa, which has a similar environment to Earth, may also give birth to life, and Europa's subglacial ocean has become one of the goals of mankind's search for extraterrestrial life.

Therefore, the main target of Europa's planetary samples is groundwater samples.

However, it is difficult to collect groundwater samples, and it depends on the landing environment, and the second target of collection is soil rock samples.

Studies have shown that Europa's surface is similar to the Earth, filled with a large number of silicate rocks, and it is also very meaningful and valuable work to collect silicate rocks or Fenghua soil samples.

The spaceship company announced its next move, advertising the exploration of Europa, but in reality, the planetary exploration work was only incidental, and the main thing was to allow Sky-01 to travel long distances.

It's the plan, and it's the test.

Sky-01 will fly from Earth to Jupiter, orbit Jupiter for several weeks, complete Europa's exploration and information gathering, and then leave Jupiter's orbit and return to Earth.

The best time for the voyage is six months from now, when it will coincide with the months when Earth and Jupiter are relatively close, with an average distance of less than 690 million kilometers.

Then the total distance to and from Jupiter is only about 1.4 billion kilometers.

The whole program is expected to take 30 to 60 days, which can be regarded as a long-distance voyage.

The definition of 'long distance' is also relative to the performance of Tianhang-01, and compared with the progress of human exploration of the universe, the distance of 1.4 billion kilometers is not too much to define as 'ultra-long distance'.

Now the world's top institutions are already discussing the voyage plan of Tianhang-01.

This involves the issue of 'quota on board'.

The state has the right to decide on the number of ships to be boarded, and there are two main factors to consider, one is the political-political factor and the other is the academic factor.

Political-political factors, naturally, only well-connected institutions can have a quota on the ship.

Academics, naturally, are scientific research.

The voyage plan of Tianhang-01 can carry people into space, and Tianhang-01 is also equipped with a large number of high-end astronomical equipment, for many top scientists, it is an opportunity not to be missed to participate in the voyage plan with Tianhang-01.

The details of the voyage plan have not yet been released, it is just an announcement, but the announcement itself has also caused huge repercussions.

The focus of public opinion is the number of people that the Tianhang-01 can carry and who has a chance to get on board?

The top scientists within the spacecraft company naturally have a chance, and the space agency, which owns part of the ownership of the 'Tianhang-01', can also send personnel to participate in the plan.

It's hard to say about other agencies.

In fact, most of the places in the Voyage Program have already been allocated.

The number of people that Tianhang-01 can carry is between 120 and 150 people, and the first voyage will definitely not be 'overloaded', that is, the cabin space will be tight, and the planned number of people will not exceed 120.

Among them, there are 40 places for the spacecraft company itself, 25 places for the military and science and technology departments, 15 places for the space agency, 30 places for other domestic companies and cooperative institutions, and the remaining places can be allocated to other personnel.

In the allocation of places, the spacecraft company has a great profit.

The vast majority of the personnel sent by the spacecraft company are to perform tasks, including spacecraft operation, maintenance and overhaul personnel, or serve as technical consultants.

There are about 25 of these people combined, and the remaining 15 places are free to use.

As a profit-oriented company, Spaceship has begun to look for large companies to cooperate, in short, to sell slots.

The number of more than a dozen places is not much, but it is enough to earn more than 10 billion flower coins.

This money can even cover the loss of long voyages.

In the course of the voyage plan, Tianhang-01 will also carry out several large satellites and extraterrestrial probe release missions, which can also bring great benefits.

The quota occupied by the military is mainly to send a few management and security personnel, who will also be stationed in Tianhang-01 for a long time and participate in the mission of Tianhang-01 in the future.

Scientific research departments and cooperative enterprises and institutions will be given places to specialize in scientific research.

Among them will be many astronomers, and the voyage is sure to be a feast for astronomical research.

It's a very interesting thing.

Wang Hao's annihilation physics subverted traditional astrophysics, but the space carrier navigation plan led by him became a feast for astronomical research.

Those astronomers who may board Tianhang-01 feel very complicated when they think of Wang Hao.

Of course, the important thing at the moment is the anti-gravity spacecraft, and only when the spacecraft is perfected can the time of the voyage plan be set.

After Wang Hao and Chen Jiahe had negotiated, they immediately notified the Tianhang base and asked them to send a team from the electronic system group to the anti-gravity spacecraft base.

The electronic system group of the Tianhang base is still relatively idle, their electronic system is very perfect, and the work has been to install various equipment and facilities, and all that needs to be done is routine docking maintenance.

Four days later, a team of 20 people was sent to the Tianhang base, and Paul Phil Jones was the team leader.

Wang Hao is still in the anti-gravity spacecraft base, he is learning about the electronic system framework of the spacecraft, and he also pointed out some problems along the way.

He found that it was relatively easy to improve the electronic systems, which were already functioning properly and were mostly completed.

There are still a lot of bugs in the system, but the big framework is already there, and the upper-level code is relatively perfect.

What he has to do is to lead the sorting out of the underlying framework.

First of all, we must correct and improve the underlying framework, and then correct the upper-layer code on the basis of it, so that there will not be too many problems.

Paul Phil-Jones met Wang Hao when he arrived at the base, and he was obviously very excited, because he felt that his dream was about to be completed.

Ever since he finalised his plans for the voyage, Paul Phil-Jones has been in such a state of excitement that he can't resist calling himself 'Vice-Captain' whenever he meets people.

It is indeed possible that he will board the Tianhang-01 and participate in the voyage plan.

There are many places for spacecraft companies, and some of them are for research and technical consultants.

The theoretical group led by Wang Hao must send at least one person to participate in the plan, and he will definitely not be able to go personally, and he will not be able to completely guarantee the safety of the mission, and it is impossible for him to participate in person.

Paul Phil-Jones' only rival is Ding Zhiqiang.

Helen and Chen Mengmeng rarely participated in experimental work, let alone front-line voyage missions.

Huang Zhen's reputation is much worse, and his participation in the voyage plan is not convincing.

Paul Phil-Jones has been involved in a lot of work in the development of light-pressure engines, and is naturally the most promising person to participate in the voyage program.

He didn't even regard Ding Zhiqiang as an opponent, "That lazy guy might just give up, right?" ”

That's what he thought.

You can imagine how happy Paul Phil-Jones was in his heart.

After meeting Wang Hao, he asked pleasantly, "What are you studying?" Supposedly related to black holes? I read the theoretical content, strong S waves? Very interesting. ”

"And that big piece of diamond, it's beautiful."

Although the words in the mouth are all admiration, listening to the tone of voice, you know that there is no sincerity at all.

Compared to the voyage plan, Paul Phil-Jones didn't care about the strong S-waves, the black hole theory, or the big beautiful diamonds.

Paul Phil-Jones doesn't control his emotions either, and he can tell the mood on his face, asking technical questions and putting on a pleasant tone, as if to say, 'I can't help but care'.

Wang Hao looked a little depressed, he pursed his lips vigorously, and said, "It's really interesting." ”

"We've created a region that looks very similar to a black hole."

"Similar to a black hole? A strong annihilation field? Paul Phil-Jones is also well-informed, and he will definitely be very surprised when others hear that it is similar to a black hole, but he is not surprised at all, and his tone is still very flat.

"It should be a compressed version."

Wang Hao's tone was also very flat, "It's just a compressed strong annihilation force field, and there is still flashing electric light on the surface, it looks like a dark magic ball released by a mage." ”

"Dark orbs?"

Paul Phil-Jones thought about it for a moment and asked, "Is there still electricity around?" Sounds great. ”

"Of course, but nothing."

Wang Hao shook his head indifferently, "Actually, we have created a wormhole. ”

"Huh?"

Paul Phil-Jones' face was full of bewilderment, and he thought he had misheard, "Wormhole? Are you sure? ”

"Look."

Wang Hao took out his mobile phone, lit up the screen, and found a photo.

It was a selfie of Ding Zhiqiang, he was standing in front of the thin layer area of strong S waves, behind him was a thin layer of darkness, and a large piece of molded objects was pierced through the thin layer, which looked very sci-fi.

Paul Phil-Jones stared at the photo, his mouth couldn't help but open wide, he couldn't find any trace of PS when he looked left and right, in fact, he was very sure that it was definitely not a picture from PS.

Wang Hao's mobile phone can't have that kind of picture.

So......

"Shet——!

He reacted suddenly and slammed his phone hard, "I'm going to join this research too!" ”

"It's so handsome!"

"God—"

"Wang Hao! Hao! I'm also an important member of the theory group, I have to join, I have to join......"

Wang Hao's expression froze on his face, and he reminded him fiercely, trying to say in a flat tone, "Attention, that's my mobile phone." ”

"I'm going to join too!"

"That's my phone, don't break it again, give it to me!"

"I want to join!"

"Give me your phone—"

……

After the arrival of the electronic system group of the Tianhang base, the improvement of the electronic system of the anti-gravity spacecraft officially began.

Wang Hao was directly involved in the work, and he stayed at the spacecraft base for more than half a month, leading the work of sorting out the underlying framework.

As long as this part of the work is done, the rest is relatively simple.

It's like solving a math problem, as long as you find the direction to solve the problem, all that's left is the calculation and filling steps, which can be completed by others.

After Wang Hao determined the direction of work, the original space agency team was a little dissatisfied, and they didn't think there was anything wrong with their underlying framework.

Half a month later, they didn't see it that way.

"The framework led by Academician Wang is so perfect, he seems to have thought of everything possible."

"Under this framework, there can't be any major problems with the upper-layer code."

"No wonder the speed over there is so fast and the system is so perfect."

"It's incredible—"

"I dare to say that Academician Wang is the best framer, he doesn't seem to study mathematical physics, but is better at calculating work."

"Don't you know? Academician Wang was already proficient in computers, and he made many top achievements in his early years, including effective and irrelevant carry screening. ”

"He seems to have given a lecture at the big data R&D institution in Aba~~"

Wang Hao led the team to spend two weeks to improve the underlying framework of the system.

The next step is to revise various algorithms and functional codes on the basis of the underlying framework.

Even though the remediation work is just beginning, with the underlying framework in place, everyone is very confident.

Wang Hao did not participate in the follow-up work.

The team has more than 200 computer engineers, and the electronic system team of the Tianhang base is assisted, and it takes two months to make the system very perfect.

At that time, there will still be bugs in the electronic system, but as long as it is not a major problem, relying on the safety and emergency detection and repair system is enough to deal with it.

The safety and emergency detection and repair system is a very important system in the aerospace field.

The operation of the satellite relies on the safety and emergency detection and repair system, and in case of software and function problems, the system can be activated for automatic detection and repair.

If it can't be repaired by self-inspection, the problem can also be found, and the ground personnel can fix it manually.

In this process, the system is able to maintain the normal operation of the minimum function.

If it is an anti-gravity spaceship, you can also turn on various main functions, so that the spacecraft is in a safe environment, and you can wait for the system to be repaired.
