Chapter 1370: Difficulties

Joga was amused by Johnny Payne's statement......

That is, there is abundant water here, and it uses the micro nuclear core provided by Boss Qiao to generate electricity......

If it is coal power generation or wind and hydropower generation, the base is located in this place, and the cost of power generation is a big problem.

Transmission losses are a problem for countries around the world, but they are not as dramatic as 75%.

Looking at Johnny Payne's embarrassed expression, Joga said with some unhappiness: "Man, I can ignore your waste of electricity, but I want to ask you, do you think we have a chance to build a nuclear power plant covering an area of about 10 acres on the moon?"

I can also see the benefits of wireless transmission, but do you think the data you just gave me is really appropriate? โ€

Johnny Payne stretched out his hand and made an inviting gesture, and then said helplessly: "Boss, it hasn't been long since you put forward the idea of the moon project, and we don't have enough time."

In fact, two months ago, the development direction of the Telos robot has been the space station, the deep sea and other harsh environments.

Even this microwave power transmission device was built so that the power of the nuclear power plant is not wasted. โ€

With that, Johnny Payne invited Joga to the waterhole below the waterfall and said, "Boss, there's an underwater cave down here.

Our server equipment is currently underwater, and it is still expanding, and those robots are the main force of construction.

However, when we were working underwater, we found an underwater cave covering an area of about thousands of hectares.

Then we thought, no matter how bad the lunar environment is, as long as we can complete the practice of base construction in the underwater cave, it proves that we have the ability to go to the moon to build a base.

Working in the water allows our people to adapt to the microgravity environment while providing experimental data to our AI intelligent system.

As long as the robots can meet the needs of the lunar construction, we can find solutions to the remaining specific problems from other technology companies.

The moon landing is a very large system project, and after the collapse of the Soviet Union in the United States in the 90s, many of the companies involved in the moon landing project have disappeared because of the disappearance of demand.

At present, NASA has no plans to land on the moon again, and if a private company wants to try to land on the moon, it must rely on the global industrial chain.

Fortunately, we are not considering landing with astronauts, and the current rover landing is a relatively mature technology for some powerful countries......

Boss, I think you can talk to the Huaguo side, according to our current needs to customize the rocket and landing module, it is not too big a problem for your current financial resources.

However, the construction of a lunar base is a very large project, and the technology involved in it is very complex.

At present, there is enough lunar soil in China to study in China, and if possible, we would like to contract research projects to research institutes in China.

We need to understand the specific composition of lunar soil in order to determine whether we can seek building materials from the lunar soil.

If this point cannot be broken through, then before a revolutionary breakthrough in rocket technology, the lunar base is just a fantasy, because the cost of sending things from the earth to the moon is too terrible. โ€

Joga looked at Johnny Payne, who was getting more and more excited the more he talked, he shook his head slightly, and said: "What you said is an ideal state, even if the scientific research institutions in Huaguo tell you that lunar soil can be the main raw material for concrete, you tell me, what are you going to use to mix it?"

The first step, dude, the first step is important!

You'll have to prove to me that these robots are reliable enough and have a complete and scrutinized lunar charging scheme before I can try to find outside funding and technology.

Musk's SpaceX has raised a huge amount of money by relying on a recyclable rocket that can only fly 700 kilometers.

You've got to give me a 'reason' to convince others to work with me!"

I don't have a fucking time for you to toss rocket technology from scratch like SpaceX does, but you just have to prove that our robots are integral to building a lunar base, and we'll have enough leverage to pull others in.

I do have a lot of money, so much money that it looks like I can't use it up, but my numbers simply can't meet such a huge need.

I spent a lot of money, and next year the China Space Agency will help us launch six high-orbit large communication satellites.

I hope to be able to bring down the price of heavy rockets by quantity, and within three years we will be able to send our first lunar spacecraft that does not need to return to the moon.

Man, that's what I can do, but I need more leverage to have more development and find more financing......

A trusty robot and a mock-up of a spacecraft that stands up to scrutiny......

You don't have to fucking ship back, just find a way to cram everything you find useful in it and unfold it when you get to the moon......

We don't need to get any great scientific results, we just need to prove that the lunar base is viable, and I can get big people to join us. โ€

When Johnny Payne heard this, he spread his hands a little excitedly and helplessly: "Boss, I'm a robotics scientist, and in fact, there are not many people studying aerospace projects in the Hexagon......

What you said seems easy, but it's actually very difficult.

If someone gives us a design drawing for the lunar spacecraft, it is possible for us to calculate and design the loads according to the internal structure of the spacecraft.

But if we start from scratch, this kind of project is almost impossible to complete without the assistance of professionals.

Boss, you are a little too anxious, the aerospace field is a huge system engineering, and what we should consider is to cooperate with others from the beginning.

The first step you said, in my opinion, should not be achieved on the moon......"

Saying that, Johnny Payne pointed to the waterhole next to him and said, "Here, underwater, as long as we can use robots to build an underwater base, it is enough to prove our technical capabilities."

If you want to take the lead, I think you could build a space center in Somalia or Gabon, both of which have convenient seaports for transporting supplies.

If you're in a hurry, you can simply buy a recyclable rocket from SpaceX.

At the moment, their rockets are not launching at the height of the Earth's orbit, but as long as you can prove your resolve, and prove the benefits that can be generated after landing on the moon, these are all problems that can be solved.

I've recently looked up a lot of information, and the presence of water ice has been found at both poles of the moon, which means that there may be 'water' on the moon.

As long as water exists, our miniature nuclear power plants have a chance to land on the moon and be operational.

As long as there is water and there is enough electricity, we can use electrolysis to obtain oxygen and hydrogen for fuel, and even other resources on the moon to replenish materials in situ......

There's a huge amount of aluminum, silicon, and iron, and if you can find the right way, everything you say is theoretically possible.

It's just that the current technical capabilities of the Hexagon can't do ......"

After Johnny Payne finished speaking, Joga fell into deep thought......

Boss Qiao has a plug-in, but he basically doesn't know anything about aviation technology......

He waved his hand to Johnny Payne not to speak, and then walked to the edge of the pool, squatted there and washed his face with the cool water, calmed his hot brain, and finally simply took off his shoes and sat down by the water, and put his feet in the pool......

Several of the kids were the target of the Hexagonal engineers because they had too many projects on hold because of funding problems.

But as long as they can win the hearts of a few children, and mention that Master Igor is very interested in the project, they can easily apply for additional funds from the hostess.

Nice doesn't care about raising children at all, but when it comes to 'spending money for children', she's definitely at the ceiling level.

This is the typical emotion of not enough money to make up!

According to Nice's theory, 'stocking' can't just 'release', and there is no way to do it when you don't have the ability, but when you have the ability, you should spend money on 'raising'.

The most important thing in 'raising children' is to let them 'play', and then find their interests through 'play'.

In a way, Nice is the best mother in the world.

Because she never regarded the child as her accessory, but put herself in the position of a stepping stone, and regarded the child as a very important passerby in her life......

Igor doesn't feel anything wrong now, either, because he doesn't lack people who love him.

When he is faced with the lure of a bunch of 'Frankenstein', it is difficult not to fall into their 'trap'.

The fat engineer of Huaguo, who once had a relationship with Boss Qiao and developed the 'Sagittarius robot', came up with his latest masterpiece 'Scorpio'......

The mighty scorpion-shaped robot, with the blessing of microwave charging, shows extraordinary ability, climbing mountains and wading through water, walking with weights is a piece of cake, and the most interesting thing is that the tail of the scorpion is a so-called laser emitter, which can burn a black spot on the tree in a few seconds......

This thing is shown to Joga, it is a big toy that is not useful, but Igor has an unusual penchant for this kind of thing that looks fierce and fierce.

He rode around the 'Scorpio' twice, and under the urging of the fat brother's honest smile, he pressed his handprint on a project funding application, and then at the instigation of the fat brother, he rode a scorpion the size of a car chassis and ran to his father's side, dragged his father's hand, and pressed a handprint worth hundreds of thousands.

By the time Boss Qiao came back to his senses......

But watching his son ride a more stable scorpion, beckoning two big dogs to hammer those engineering robots to non-stop display failures......

Facing the fat man's honest smile, Qiao Jia shook his head and smiled, and said: "Lao Tzu is not a figure factory here, what's the point of getting these toys?"

Next time, don't do this kind of running on the ground, if you have the ability to get some flying in the sky and swimming in the water, Lao Tzu will personally approve the money for you......"

Saying that, Qiao Jia looked at the fat man's eyes and suddenly felt that it was not good, so he added: "The new robot must have some practical effect......

The fat man listened very aggrieved and wanted to explain that his 'Scorpio' is still very powerful.

However, seeing that Boss Qiao didn't seem to be very happy to pay attention to himself, he sniffed and turned his head to look at Igor, who was a scumbag, and felt that his future career would still fall on this eldest young master.

Pยท Master B doesn't care about money, he just wants to play, it's easier to fool!

Qiaojia has a lot of thoughts about the fat man, but he doesn't care, and his stupid son's handprint can't approve more than 7 figures......

And anyway, it is all about burning money on robot projects, and it doesn't matter whether it is burned or not, because the technology accumulation generated by burning money can always generate a little value in the future.

The fact that in the Master Chief squad provided by the Mountain Eagle, the animal-form robots are more effective than the humanoid robots, which is clear evidence.

Who can say that the fat man's burning path must be wrong?

Seeing that everyone had found entertainment, Qiaojia shook his head with a smile, and then took out his phone and dialed Baia, who was far away in Yemen......

"Baia, contact the Somali side, I want to take a piece of land near Kismayo in southern Somalia......"

"Boss, what's the use of the land?"

Qiao Jia hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I want to build a space center, and whether it can be completed in the end depends on whether it can be sponsored, but it is always right to take down the land first......

"Space center?"

Choga listened to Baiya's exclamation of some change of tone, and he said calmly: "Somalia and Gabon are suitable for space centers on the Afika equator line."

Launching a rocket on the equator line can save a lot of fuel costs, even if we can't do it ourselves in the end, it doesn't matter, get the infrastructure right, it's a big deal to rent it to other people......"
