Chapter 271: Three Gates, Mecha

At a glance, the Sanmen base has begun to take shape.

A 500-metre-diameter beam channel generator is being installed in the center, surrounded by the Aerospace Building, as well as the apron and runway.

It stretches far away.

On the surface, the Sanmen base is actually a huge airport centered on a beam channel with a diameter of 500 meters.

This airfield is also circular, and its diameter reaches sixty kilometers.

The reason for such an area is that for a long time afterward, the Sanmen base was the main gateway to space.

Whether it is the materials for the full development of the moon, or the materials for landing on Mars and building a permanent base on Mars, even the various probes launched, etc.

The vast majority will go into space from the Sanmen base.

Of course, this is only one of the main functions of the Three Gates, and the space portal.

Then there are the energy portals and the high-energy physics portals.

Also centered on the beam generator, a radius of twenty-five kilometers is a hundred meters underground.

It has the world's most powerful Super Hadron Collider.

The Hadron Collider, which is designed to be 1,000 kilometers in diameter, is incomparable.

But in any case, as long as the hadron collider in space is not completed, the hadron collider in the Tamu Gobi is the most powerful.

This is the high-energy physics portal in the three-door plan.

Finally, there's the energy portal.

The beam generator in the center of the Sanmen base not only generates the beam channel, but also receives the light energy transmitted by the beam project.

In the underground of the Sanmen base, there are a large number of super batteries.

The reason why there are so many super batteries is to regulate light energy, that is, the stability of energy supply.

Solar energy harvesting stations close to the sun collect solar energy and convert it into a specific wavelength of light.

This light transmits light energy to a spaceport in geosynchronous orbit via one or more light energy transfer stations.

The spaceport then modulates the transmitted light energy through the beam channel to a beam channel generator with a diameter of 500 meters on the ground.

The beam channel generator transports the collected light energy to the Super Hadron Collider through a high-power light energy transmission cable.

and transmitting light energy beyond the Sanmen base for use by the entire Tamu Gobi.

According to the design requirements, only through the energy provided by the Sanmen base, it can meet the full power of the Tamu Gobi use.

Right now, after the completion of the Sanmen plan, there will be excess energy to supply beyond the Tamu Gobi.

According to the previous plan, 500 energy collection stations of the same level as the Sanmen plan were to be built around the world.

In this way, we can provide high-quality and cheap energy to people all over the world.

But given the change in policy.

The plan has become to build 300 such energy harvesting stations in the country to meet the country's energy needs.

Fiber optic cables that transmit high-power light energy through the ground will provide part of the energy to the outside world.

At present, the construction of 300 energy harvesting stations and the laying of high-power optical energy transmission optical cables are underway nationwide.

According to the plan, it will be fully completed in two years.

At this time, everyone in the country can use the energy provided by the Light Pillar Project.

The reason why it took two years was because of the lack of people.

If there is no shortage of people, let it go, it is estimated that it will be completed in less than a year.

But it's impossible to just let it go, because there are more projects going on, and all of them are important.

Such as the full development of the moon, the landing on Mars to develop Mars, and so on.

On the flying car above the Sanmen base, Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "Look at this progress, it will be completed in more than ten days." ”

"Almost!" Su Zhe nodded.

"Both! Let's go down and take a look, it's a little cold after staying in such a high position for a long time. Zuo Dajun said with some trembling.

"Who told you to have clothes and leave the windows open?" Fan Xiaoming complained.

The flying car slowly lowered its altitude and came to a steady stop on the periphery of the beam generator.

As soon as they stopped, Fan Xiaoming's assistants Ma Ping and Wang Dong came over.

The two took Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming to visit the beam generator being installed.

According to the two assistants, the Super Hadron Collider has completed testing and will be ready for use when the beam channel generator is built.

The beam channel generator will be delivered in half a month, that is, on August 28.

"Half a month! Calculating the time, the space part of the Sanmen plan can also be fully completed. Fan Xiaoming said with a smile, "In this way, the entire Sanmen plan can be completed a few days in advance, which is good news." ”

With the two assistants, the group came to the aerospace building, which was one kilometer away from the beam channel.

The Sanmen base has a huge area, with many large and small aerospace buildings, and the one that the group came to is the aerospace main building of the Sanmen base.

It is also the tallest and largest aerospace building.

In general, the aerospace building is an enlarged version of the aviation building of the test airport, with a similar structure, but it is larger and more functional.

Such as a floor, twenty meters high. With an area of 30,000 square meters, its main function is a parking place for armored spacesuits and humanoid robots.

The second floor is fifteen meters, and the living function area and so on.

Three floors and ten meters, controlling the entire Sanmen base while monitoring almost all civilian aircraft in space.

At this time, the control hall on the third floor of the main aerospace building.

Zuo Dajun looked at the monitoring map displayed on the big screen and said with a smile: "Now the beam channel between the ground and the geosynchronous orbit is really busy, there are constantly flying saucers, and those facilities and personnel in the synchronous orbit can be seen clearly." ”

At present, the range of monitoring is centered on the earth, a range of one million kilometers.

As long as it is within this range, it is an exaggeration to say that a single mosquito can find it if you want to.

As the SS-Defense system expands, this range will increase.

"It's not normal to see clearly." Fan Xiaoming said and asked the staff to enlarge the image of the solar energy collection station and the light energy transmission station being assembled in the synchronous orbit.

In the picture, there are a large number of humanoid robots wearing armored spacesuits and remotely controlled.

These people are hustling around a half-assembled solar energy collection station and a light energy transmission station.

"With the current trend, remotely controlled humanoid robots will become the mainstream of manufacturing." Zuo Dajun said with a smile.

At present, the technology of remotely controlling humanoid simulant robots is quite mature.

Except for some extremely detailed work, everything else can be done.

The most important thing is that remotely controlling humanoid humanoid robots has advantages that real people do not have, that is, three emergencies and some other problems.

Real people have three emergencies and need a life-sustaining system, while remotely controlling a humanoid robot only needs energy.

"I guess so!" Su Zhe nodded and said, "However, these humanoid robots need to be remotely controlled by real people, and the distance between the two cannot exceed 600,000 kilometers, beyond this distance, the control is not so good, which also means that when developing the solar system, a large number of people will leave the earth and enter space, so that a similar number of spacesuits will be needed, so you don't have to worry that the spacesuits you make will be abandoned." ”

For now, you can't be too far apart between remotely controlling a humanoid robot and controlling a human.

The ideal distance is no more than 600,000 kilometers.

For the full-scale development of the Moon, there are great advantages.

That is, the moon is only more than 300,000 kilometers away from the earth, and people can directly control the humanoid robot on the moon on the earth.

But no further afield.

Mars, for example, is 55 million kilometers away at its closest point.

It is unrealistic for humans to control humanoid robots on Mars on Earth.

To control a humanoid robot on Mars, that person would have to travel to the vicinity of Mars.

This is true for the rest of the development solar system.

When I think of this, I can't help but think of the instantaneous transmission of information.

Once this kind of science fiction technology is realized, humans will be able to control humanoid robots into deep space.

Unfortunately, such a technology is difficult to achieve.

Right now, a little to the edge is quantum winding.

Perhaps, quantum winding is the breakthrough of instantaneous transmission of information.

"Yes! Yes! Zuo Dajun smiled, "The original plan was that we would also make a remote control robot, but I didn't expect to be preempted by the people from the School of Computer Science." ”

While they were putting all their energy into spacesuits, the guys at the Computer Science School sneaked up on humanoid robots and game pods.

By the time he knew, it was too late.

"Don't bother if you're robbed, I heard that your scientific research team has created a real mecha, isn't that like this?" Fan Xiaoming asked.

I didn't hear about this, but I saw it from the work report submitted by the scientific research team led by Zuo Dajun.

Not to mention, there are quite a lot of types of mecha made, and all the noodles have been taken into account.

"Yes! It is a lot of finished products that have been manufactured. Zuo Dajun said.

"Then let's stop this inkblot, look at the mecha and look at the armored spacesuit automation factory." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.

Leaving the Aerospace Building, Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, and Zuo Dajun took a flying car to the armored spacesuit automation factory 300 kilometers away.

The three of them first visited the automated factory of armored spacesuits.

From the delivery of parts to the launch of qualified armored spacesuits, the whole process takes three hours.

And the factory is highly automated, of which the automation rate has reached 95%, and the remaining 5% is equipment controlled by personnel remotely.

Even so, this armored spacesuit automation factory is still being optimized.

Involved in the optimization is a scientific research team of 300 people.

Among the 300 people, 100 are full-time scientific researchers, 100 are teachers and students of Lingzhou University of Technology, and the last 100 are teachers and students of other universities and research institutes.

This is not only the case with automated factories for armored spacesuits, but also for the vast majority of factories in the Tamu Gobi.

"I read the report that such an automated factory can produce 3,000 sets of armored spacesuits a day, which is not bad." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.

"3,000 sets a day is the data half a month ago, after the research and upgrading of the scientific research team, the current automated factory can produce 5,000 sets a day." Zuo Dajun said with a smile.

"Five thousand sets! Not bad! Su Zhe said with a smile.

The production of armored spacesuits by the automated factory of armored spacesuits in the Tamu Gobi is not the main purpose, but the main purpose is to use it for research and upgrading.

You must know that the demand for armored spacesuits is in the hundreds of millions.

It is mainly manufactured by automated factories for armored spacesuits built elsewhere in the country.

This is also the case for others such as the game cabin manufacturing plant, the humanoid simulation robot manufacturing factory, the flying saucer manufacturing factory, the simplified heavy photon aerospace engine manufacturing factory, and so on.

The three of them turned around, left the armored spacesuit automation factory, and came to a factory with a clear height of 50 meters and an area of 50,000 square meters.

There are many mechs of different shapes in the factory.

The tallest is more than 30 meters, and the shortest is 3 meters.

There are humanoids, there are animal natures, and so on.

And many half-finished mechs are full of people standing around.

These people had a lively discussion.

Some people are not discussing, they are arguing.

After Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, and Zuo Dajun appeared, everyone greeted each other enthusiastically.

The three of them came to a mecha thirty meters high.

Fan Xiaoming looked at Zuo Dajun, who was a little excited, and said, "Isn't your scientific research team only a little more than a thousand people?" When I look at this scene, there are more than 5,000 people at any time. ”

It was the first time he and Su Zhe had come to this factory, and they had only seen photos before.

Not to mention, it's quite shocking to see so many mechas.

"Now there are more than 8,000 people in the factory." Zuo Dajun explained, "The scientific research team I led is indeed only 1,000 people, and the rest of the personnel are peripheral personnel, including teachers and students from schools, as well as teachers and students from other universities and research institutes. ”

Don't look at the core members of the scientific research team, that is, there are only more than 1,000 full-time personnel.

But there are more people on the periphery.

There are 3,000 peripheral personnel in some schools and 300,000 peripheral personnel in other universities and research institutes.

And the number is growing.

Of course, for these peripheral personnel, the requirements are not high, and their main purpose is to learn.

There is only a small subsidy for the periphery involved.

Don't look at the role played by each peripheral person is not very large, but the number of people is large! It also adds up to a lot of scary.

For example, when encountering a problem, one person has one idea, one person has one suggestion, and the solution to the problem can be discussed quickly.

If it weren't for that, the armored spacesuit wouldn't have produced results so quickly, and it wouldn't have made so many mechs.

This is not only the scientific research team he leads, but also the scientific research team of schools and research centers.

The full-time staff of the scientific research team is the core, and the teachers and students of schools and other universities and research institutes are the peripheral personnel.

Of course, a lot of the periphery and periphery overlap.

For example, a student can be a peripheral person who studies mechas, and at the same time a peripheral person who studies robots.

In his opinion, this combination is very reasonable.

It not only improves the efficiency of scientific research, but also cultivates latecomers.
