Chapter 178: The Beauty of the Earth Detected, Tamu Town
Soon, the height of the rocket came to two thousand kilometers, and the attitude of the rocket changed.
At some distance of flight, the rocket's engine stopped, and its auxiliary engines turned on.
After some time, there was applause from the base control center.
The second orbital launch of the rocket was successful.
Next, the rocket began to release the probe.
As before, the rocket has to adjust its attitude every time the rocket releases the probe.
In this way, it was released and adjusted repeatedly, and all 30 detectors were successfully released.
At this time, applause broke out again in the base control center.
In the main screen, after the rocket releases the last probe, the rocket's main engine ignites again.
The rocket, with the cooperation of the main and auxiliary engines, got out of orbit at an altitude of two thousand kilometers.
After turning around a big corner, the main engine increased its strength, coupled with the gravitational pull of the earth, the rocket flew quickly towards the surface, and its speed became more and more high.
On the right side of the main screen, thirty sub-screens have been added again, each of which shows a detector.
After these probes are separated from the rocket, the first thing to work is the power system, and after the orbit of the probe is stabilized, the probe begins to unfold, and all the systems of the probe begin to work.
As with the previous six detectors, the real-time parameters of their detectors are displayed next to each of these screens.
On the left side of the main screen, the sub-screen synchronized with the command and control center of the satellite launch center ends after the successful launch of the last probe.
What is now displayed is two large lines of letters that warmly welcome the successful launch.
In the 3D image of the Earth shown on the left side, thirty-six green dots representing the probe have been lit up, and these dots are moving rapidly.
"Good! Now the launch mission of the satellite launch center has been a complete success. Zhang Gaoming said and applauded.
For a moment, everyone in the base control center applauded.
At this time, the flight attitude of the rocket in the main screen is unusually weird, accelerating rapidly head-down for a while, like a splash in the water, and flying sideways for a while.
Seeing this, many people were puzzled.
Seeing this, Zhang Gaoming smiled and said, "This is a test!" ”
With this sentence, everyone understood what was going on.
"We can take a good look at the testing and recovery of the second stage rocket." Zhang Gaoming said with a smile.
In the main screen, although the flight attitude of the second stage rocket is strange, its altitude is rapidly decreasing.
Soon, the two-stage rocket rushed into the atmosphere.
Due to the excessive speed of the second-stage rocket, the second-stage rocket turned into a large fireball.
At this time, the speed of the second-stage rocket decreases rapidly, and finally reaches an equilibrium.
When the second-stage rocket was at an altitude of ten kilometers, the second-stage rocket exploded directly.
The sudden explosion of the second-stage rocket startled everyone in the control center.
Just as everyone was about to exclaim, a small semi-elliptical capsule rushed out of the wreckage.
The capsule descended rapidly after detaching from the wreckage.
At an altitude of five kilometers, the capsule unfolded its parachute.
The parachute pulled the capsule down slowly, and finally landed exactly 50 kilometers away from the satellite launch center.
Less than three minutes after the capsule landed, a crew member drove a car to the scene.
Six people got out of the three cars, and these six people worked together to open the cabin, and carefully lifted a person out of the cabin.
It can be clearly seen in the picture that this is a dummy, and this dummy is missing an arm.
"How? Clear enough! Zhang Gaoming said excitedly, "Being able to see so clearly is entirely due to the probes that have just been launched, without which the SS-Defense System cannot detect ultra-low altitudes, let alone the ground." ”
Everyone nodded in unison.
"Our probe was successful, but the final test of the second-stage rocket was unsuccessful! This dummy has missing arms, and it is estimated that this dummy will not survive. Zhang Gaoming said with a smile.
Hearing Zhang Gaoming say this, everyone looked puzzled.
Seeing this, Zhang Gaoming explained with a smile: "That's the case, this time it is not only the maneuverability of the second-stage rocket that is tested, but also the emergency escape cabin, it is obvious that the latter's test failed, but a lot of data was collected. ”
The crowd nodded again.
As Zhang Gaoming was speaking, the picture synchronized with the satellite launch center disappeared, and was replaced by a large 3D picture of the earth and the surrounding space.
At this time, more and more small dots appear in a particular direction in the space around the Earth, and these dots vary in color.
Some dots are monochromatic, some are bi-colored, and some are tricolored.
Depending on the color of the dots, they represent different meanings.
"Well, let me explain, these dots represent satellites, probes, asteroids, and so on." Zhang Gaoming explained.
"Understood!" Someone shouted.
"What you're seeing now is the results of the SS-Defense System deployed on the ground, and we're going to add the thirty-six probes that we're going to find." Zhang Gaoming said excitedly.
In an instant, many small dots of different colors appeared around the earth, and these dots are still increasing.
"That's right! I forgot to mention that of the thirty probes in orbit at an altitude of 2,000 kilometers, three probes remain at this altitude, and the others have to go to higher orbits, these ......" Zhang Gaoming explained with some embarrassment.
After talking for a long time, he missed such an important matter.
I still remembered it after looking at the parameters of the detectors in those screens.
These detectors are located in groups of three, each of which will be on a sphere of the same radius.
Thirty-six detectors are divided into twelve groups and deployed on twelve spheres with different radii.
Originally, it could only detect space in a special direction, and the area of the SS-defense system deployed on the ground extended to space for 10,000 kilometers.
After thirty-six probes are in place, the SS-Defense system is capable of detecting space with the Earth as the center and a radius of 300,000 kilometers.
Listening to Zhang Gaoming's explanation, many people suddenly realized.
However, technical consultants like Su Zhe and Ning Changsheng knew it from the beginning.
"Next, we can only wait slowly, wait for these probes to be deployed in the set orbit, and now show you the satellites of various countries in space and the space junk that has been detected, etc." Zhang Gaoming said.
In the main picture, satellites at home and abroad are presented one after another, followed by space junk of different sizes and asteroids of different sizes......
Time flew by, and it was time for dinner.
Su Zhe and his entourage hurriedly ate dinner and hurried to the base control center.
Everyone continued to look at the satellites, the space junk and all that.
By ten o'clock in the evening, four of the twelve detectors had been deployed.
As a result, the detection radius of the SS-defense system has been extended to 40,000 kilometers.
At this time, the main screen shows the space solar power plant in the light-chasing project.
Some details of the space solar power plant in the picture are clearly visible, not as before.
Zhang Gaoming looked at everyone and said with a smile: "It's not early, let's finally show you the beauty of the earth detected by the SS-defense system." ”
As Zhang Gaoming's words fell, a large, two small and three polar bears appeared in the main picture.
Three polar bears roam the icy Arctic landscape......
As soon as the camera turns, a male lion is fighting with a group of spotted hyenas, and one spotted hyena is killed between the rise and fall of the male lions.
Next, a bald eagle stands on a steep rock face.
Suddenly, the bald eagle spread its wings and flew.
But the good times didn't last long, a warhead flew by, and the bald eagle quickly fell to the ground.
The picture changes again, and a kangaroo jumps freely, jumping, and jumping onto the road.
A car sped by, and the kangaroo lay in a pool of blood.
The picture rotates, countless ice floes float on the water, and there are many penguins on the ice floes.
The penguins lean on each other......
Finally, a forest appears in the picture.
The picture zooms in and shows a juvenile giant panda lying motionless on the branch of a large tree.
……
At half past ten in the evening, Su Zhe and his party left the control center happily.
Everyone took the elevator to the ground and took the tour bus to the satellite launch center.
Along the way, everyone talked and laughed.
At this moment, everyone has a deep understanding of the SS-defense system.
As far as we know, there is no need to question the detection capabilities of the SS-defense system, and there is no need to question the power of its interception.
The only thing that remains in doubt now is the ability to combine the two.
Although the current SS-defense system is highly classified, everyone wants the true strength of the SS-defense system to be presented to the world as soon as possible, so that the world can know the power of the SS-defense system.
As soon as Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming returned to their residence at the Satellite Launch Center, their assistants surrounded them.
The five assistants inquired about the Xuanwu Project and the SS-Defense System.
Su Zhe smiled and didn't speak.
Fan Xiaoming shook his head and said: "Your curiosity is really heavy, we will tell you what we can tell you, and if you can't say it, it's in vain to ask." ”
Hearing Fan Xiaoming say this, the five assistants were about to leave.
Fan Xiaoming coughed lightly and said, "You also know something about the SS-defense system, so you just think about it, let's say so!" There is no limit to your future, and there is no outsider in the world who can pick up the fruits of our labor. ”
Suddenly, the five assistants were stunned.
Then, the five of them burst out laughing excitedly.
Laughing and laughing, the five assistants left.
……
The next morning, Su Zhe and his entourage visited the recovered oval capsule and the dummy that had lost his arm.
After lunch, Su Zhe and his entourage of more than 30 people got on the bus.
These people are all teachers and students of Lingzhou University of Technology.
The group took a bus to the Tamu Gobi, which is more than 100 kilometers away.
They will meet with more than 500 other teachers and students from Lingzhou University of Technology in a small town on the edge of the Talmud Gobi for a three-day visit.
On the bus, Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, Xu Zhengping, Wang Xiuqi and other people sat together.
At first, several people talked about yesterday's launch of 36 satellites.
Said that the launch was very successful.
Then several people talked about the final test, saying that the design of the escape pod was not perfect and so on.
When saying this, Principal Xu Zhengping was the most excited.
You must know that Xu Zhengping is an expert in aerospace.
Besides, Xu Zhengping is one of the leaders in manned lunar exploration and the construction of bases on the moon.
As they spoke, several people talked about the collision of two asteroids.
Xu Zhengping and Wang Xiuqi cooperate very well, you say everything I say.
And the two also showed a worried look.
It is said that the collision of an asteroid the size of 10 kilometers and an asteroid of 150 kilometers is a disaster for all mankind.
He also said that mankind cannot have a fluke mentality, and that all mankind must unite to face disasters.
The two of them said as if humanity would be destroyed this time.
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming listened carefully, no matter what Xu Zhengping and Wang Xiuqi said, they just didn't answer, and at most they smiled.
They knew that Xu Zhengping and Wang Xiuqi were talking.
If you talk about the Xuanwu program and the SS-defense system, after all, these two watched the rocket launch from the command and control center of the satellite launch center, and they didn't know much about the SS-defense system.
Xu Zhengping and Wang Xiuqi saw that Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming were not fooled, so they changed their strategies.
"Well, I know there are some things I can't say, but I want to know that after two asteroids collide, they will go in the worst direction, so can we humans still avoid this catastrophe?" Xu Zhengping asked expectantly.
"Yes! We are worried that seeing that science and technology are about to develop explosively, and that mankind is about to enter space in an all-round way, I don't want mankind to be wiped out at this juncture. Wang Xiuqi said regretfully.
"Headmaster! Rest assured, even if it goes in the worst direction, we can handle it. Su Zhe said affirmatively.
"Teacher!" Fan Xiaoming thought for a while and said, "I say so, even if that asteroid with a size of 150 kilometers directly crashes into the earth, we humans will not be destroyed." ”
"Really!"
"That's great!"
Xu Zhengping and Wang Xiuqi said excitedly.
After saying this, several people began to talk about the infrastructure construction of the Tamu Gobi.
According to the plan, Tamgobi will be a gigafactory that brings together all industrial product manufacturing.
Plus the Super Hadron Collider complex and the Space Portal.
All of this requires supporting infrastructure.
There are transportation, water and electricity, internet, housing, and so on
Take transportation as an example, roads, railways, and airports are fully covered.
Among them, roads and railways have to go directly to Lingzhou.
According to the school's plan, Lingzhou and Tamu Gobi will build direct high-speed railways, and Tamu Gobi will build underground subways.
And freight railroads or something.
In general, a lot of money will be invested in the infrastructure construction of the Tamu Gobi.
After talking about infrastructure, we talked about the super factory.
The gigafactory starts from the lithium-sulfur battery production line and the entire industrial chain of electric vehicles.
At present, the automated production line of lithium-sulfur batteries is already under construction, and the preliminary planning of the whole industrial chain plan of electric vehicles has come out.
Start with every part on an electric car.
Start with the raw materials you started with.
After chatting, the bus came to the edge town of Tamu Gobi: Tamu Town.
