The 'true dry weight', i.e., the total amount of mimic matter, of the Nesarata is 100,000 tons, which is composed of the 'propulsion system', the 'detention module and its components', the 'return module and its components', the 'cage cabin and its components', the 'hub module and its components', and the 'main structure of the reserve module';

This data is not beyond the limits of 'deep unity', so it is all under the control of Nesta, the dominant consciousness of the moment.

In addition, there is also the 'non-mimic' part, which is composed of the 'solidified concentrated nutrients', liquid oxygen accelerant, liquid hydrogen fuel carried by the ship in each 'storage warehouse', and the 10,000-ton high-level demonic beast living body in the 'cage cabin'.

Under the combination of the two phases, the 'real total weight' of each part of the rocket reaches 130,000 tons, but under the suppression of the anti-gravity effect, its 'action weight' is only 13,000 tons.

Of course, the word 'only' is aimed at the 90% of the true weight of 117,000 tons that have been removed.......

Using this 'concealment', the Nesarata was able to pile up more powerful engines, carry more fuel and nutrients, and form a series of powerful totemic core components.

And these are the confidence to let such a behemoth complete the surface escape.

~~~~~~~~~ Diaphragm

This was indeed the first attempt, and although the rocket was successfully lifted off with excellent launch point selection and strong power, some fallacies were discovered in the process;

Most of them are problems caused by differences between theory and practice, and if they were placed in a previous life, any one of them could have caused the launch to fail, or even be enough to make the Republic pay a more terrible price.

But now, Nesta is able to spot problems during the flight and make adjustments to them at the first time.

Therefore, although there are many problems, the operation of the rocket is constantly being optimized.

And as time passed, when the operation of the Nesarata gradually entered a stable state, Nesta no longer needed to control everything in detail;

Therefore, at this time, he turned on the intelligent central system and changed it to be the main control.

Although the 'Intelligence Hub' is also transformed from a combined clone, its mode of operation determines the difference in control methods, thus freeing up most of Nesta's energy..... Diaphragm

So, he began to take care of other things, such as liaising with the headquarters.....

"This is the Nesarata, the rocket components are working normally, I have changed to the intelligent brain control mode, how is the feedback from the special observation point on the surface?"

"Wait a minute......"

The voice of the rough teeth was read by Nesta, and the ground was an 'observation room' rather than a 'command center', and it was more of an auxiliary calculation and observation study, so at this time it was only a report according to his needs.

"A message from the No. 01 Observatory of Menglu Country said that everything is normal at the Wangcheng General Altar, and the 'Protector' has not appeared abnormal!"

"Laiyin...."

"Fangs...."

"Okay, I see, please keep watching......."

~~~~~~

The main observation room of the headquarters, a large video cube, is divided into several areas;

Some of them are showing the lift-off of the Nesarata, and some of them are showing the various components of the rocket.

After a brief delay, Nesarata's voice rang out in the main observation room, and their feedback was delivered to the rocket in time;

In addition, the condition of the main observation room, as well as the real-time footage of the Nesarata, were also broadcast live throughout the Black Forest at this time, and most of the elves who were working in different positions or resting at home watched all this intently.

Obviously, the 'voice technology' of the past could not do this, and the problem of the 'real-time' nature of information alone could not be solved

Today, however, the headquarters is using cutting-edge technology.......

As the number of fifth-order witch doctors increased, the progress of their own capture of high-level demonic beasts became faster and faster;

Therefore, in the past few years, a large number of similar spells have been discovered and transformed into spells and totem technology, among which there is the 'electromagnetic wave' technology selflessly contributed by the 'electric system' advanced demonic beasts, and thus solved the problem of instant communication and content transmission efficiency.

In order to ensure this observation, the Republic has arranged a large number of signal relay stations in the sea, land and air regions along the equator, and the electromagnetic waves they receive will be transmitted back to the headquarters through the high-altitude relay stations, and then turned into various audio-visual information under the transformation of the intelligent center.

In addition, clutter points have been set up in the air around the globe to obfuscate the keen perception of the possible presence of certain near-gods;

For the same reason, the use of electricity in the Black Forest is still mainly based on research and limited use, and it is not intended to be a large-scale use of energy in the near future.

~~~~~~~ Diaphragm

Turning back into the air.....

Time is still passing bit by bit, and under the control of the intelligent center and the distracted monitoring of Nesta at any time, all the components of the rocket are running efficiently.

A steady stream of high-energy cell fluid is precipitated from the cage and piped into the mixing chamber, and the solidified nutrients in the reserve chamber are also broken down and flow into the mixing chamber.

When the two meet here and are mixed in proportion, the result is a substance known as the 'ultra-high energy nutrient concentrate', which is also a key element in the operation of the totem of each part of the rocket.

In the outermost layer, it is the fairing that works together with the totem combined with the laws of physics, and it is also the outer wall of the rocket that fights the high temperature generated by atmospheric friction, but these are only the most basic consumption, and the rocket engine part is a large energy consumer;

For example, the bottom layer of the outer ring of the rocket body, the 9 large 'attached thrusters', are indispensable in the process of their work, and they are naturally inseparable from the support of 'concentrated nutrients'......

Rocket thrust is undoubtedly the top priority of lift-off operations, and the engine that produces thrust can be divided into 'ramjet scramjet supersonic propulsion' and 'liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propulsion'

Functionally, it can also be divided into 'intra-atmospheric propulsion', 'detention bin propulsion', and 'return capsule propulsion'.

Speaking of 'attached engines', every second, a huge amount of air is sucked in from the channel opening at the upper end of the thruster, and then through the pressurized chamber, combustion chamber, and a series of changes, it will generate a strong thrust at the lower end, and thus drive the rocket body to fly at high speed.

In the atmosphere, the engine achieves higher exhaust velocity and fuel utilization, and thus temporarily becomes the main propulsion force during liftoff.

But as the altitude of the rocket climbed, the air gradually began to become thinner, and when it reached a certain level, the efficiency of these nine thrusters decreased greatly due to their own principle of action.

At this point, the 'liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen thruster' located in the center of the bottom of the rocket becomes the main force before entering orbit.......

At this point, the Nesarata had a branch option, either to abandon the scramjet or to keep it and become part of the main body when it was put into orbit.

If the former is selected, the preset 'first-level throwaway procedure' will take effect, and the result will be a weight reduction in the arrow body and a relay acceleration in formation

This option will reduce some of the energy and nutrient consumption before orbit, and after orbit, it will also effectively reduce the frequency of ground recharge.

If the latter is chosen, it means that the 'Detention Warehouse' will gain more effective totem volume and thus have more powerful functional scalability, but at the cost of increasing the frequency of replenishment.

After consideration, the preparation made by Nesta before the lift-off, the preparation for 'transformation' and 'abandonment';

If the prior calculation is correct, the main thrust engine of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen at the center can really drive 13,000 tons of 'action weight' into the air, then the 'conversion' task will be carried out instead of the 'throw-away' procedure;

However, if there is a deviation in the calculation in advance, and the central main thrust engine must rely on the self-weight reduction of the arrow body to complete the task, then the 'throw-away' procedure is executed.

It is speculated that the abandoned group of attached engines will fall in the sea near Antarctica, and it is not difficult for the republic with strong surface and sea power to recover it.

In addition, the 'second stage of the 'Throw-Off Procedure' is strictly a throw-off of the 'Return Capsule'...... Diaphragm

After all, the combination of two fifth-order witch doctors could not stay in space forever, and the main body of the structure needed to stay in orbit to perform scientific research tasks;

Therefore, there needs to be a 'return capsule' that can be separated from the main body and return to the surface with the witch doctor......

'The calculation is correct, the first stripping procedure does not need to be performed, and the attached thruster will be retained. ’

And at the moment, the doppelganger Zhibrain has made such a judgment;

This is what Nesta is happy to see, as the volume of the detention bin will be more important than the burden of nutrients on the ground.

As a result, the attached engine stalled under the control of the brain, and the central engine started by the maximum power took on the follow-up main propulsion task, and in the continuous consumption of liquid oxygen and hydrogen, the height of the rocket is also rising....

~~~~~~ Diaphragm

It is a much larger star than Earth, with a denser and thicker atmosphere.....

At this time, Nesarata is about 500 kilometers above the surface, which seems to have exceeded the orbital altitude of the ISS in its previous life;

However, the test results of Zhi Brain show that although it can be used as a flight trajectory for the detention warehouse, the power requirements required to overcome atmospheric resistance will be very high.

So, after checking the remaining amount of fuel and accelerant, Nesta decided to continue the altitude...

550...600....700...

When it reaches about 750 kilometers above the ground, the energy efficiency ratio shown by the brain finally falls back to an acceptable point, and the speed of direct conversion of hydrogen and oxygen in the thin atmosphere here will be greater than the energy consumption generated to offset the atmospheric resistance;

As a result, the Nesarata was no longer raised, and Nesta took over direct control of the main structure of the rocket and began to manipulate the mimic to complete the deployment according to the plan...... Diaphragm

At the tail, nine groups of ramjet engines were integrated into the arrow body, and all power-related totems on them were also erased, and the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen thrusters retracted inward, reduced power, and formed a directionally controllable structure;

In the middle, the rocket structure gradually becomes shorter and fatter, and gradually transforms into the appearance of a cylindrical spaceship in terms of form;

】

On both sides, six photosynthetic biochemical plates more than 100 meters long and 30 meters wide are stretched out, and a heat insulation and reflective layer with gradient color is attached to them.....

After all, the sunlight here is particularly violent, and if there is no protection in place, whether it is the true cells of Nesarata or the semi-plant structure of the mimic, it will turn into a 'dry corpse' in minutes.

In addition, the semi-vegetative structure began to retract and the bony metal layer floated, forming a radiation shield on the outside of the hull.

Inside the hull, the totemic structures necessary for flight became redundant at this time, and they were withdrawn in batches and then formed cabins of different sizes, some of which gave birth to cultivation cabins from the inside, and some of which extended from the walls of various experimental instruments.

Immediately, a thin column of brush-like gas collectors extended from the outer wall of the ship's hull and began to collect the gas escaping from below at an accelerated pace. Diaphragm

These gases will be sent into the conversion chamber, and then precipitated out of water, and even elements such as hydroxide, nitrogen, and carbon, and are sent into their respective chambers in different categories;

There they become water, fuel and accelerants, or they are converted into solid nutrients for storage, and the resulting substances are supplemented with gases and elements needed by the 'true cells' throughout the spacecraft.

The efficiency of this is actually not very high, if the operation of all the totems in the process is maintained by the solid nutrients brought from the ground, then it is a 'loss-making business', and the consumption is not proportional to the harvest at all;

But unfortunately, the current republic is really wealthy, and it actually sent a 10,000-ton high-level demonic beast to the sky......

Therefore, at present, there is enough high-energy cell sap produced in the cage cabin, so the nutrients required for the operation of the totem are reduced to a low point, and its role has also changed from the 'driving force' in the past to the 'supply of trace elements' in the present.

At this time, the 100,000-ton dry weight 'Nesarata spacecraft' finally successfully landed in low earth orbit and began to maintain its altitude despite many difficulties under the influence of low-power engine groups.

The success of this attempt means that with the application of powerful engine functions and anti-gravity technologies, we have achieved 'single-stage orbiting';

Therefore, the launch of spy satellites and communication satellites has become possible, and there will not be too many difficulties in the process.

At the same time, the ability to lift 100,000 tons, or even more of matter, into the air at once seems to make ideas such as Battlestar possible......

However, the first thing to do was to develop an electric-based propulsion system, and Nesta remembered that there were ion engines and the like in his previous life, and it was said that although the thrust at the sea level was stretched across, it was suitable for power in a vacuum environment.

"Ion engine..... What exactly are ions worth? ”

Muttering to himself, Nesarata's body slowly rose from the floor of a research room.

"I don't know what's going on over there with Azhara..... said that he would float up at any time to replace consciousness, why hasn't he come out once until now? ”
