Orbital base?"

Johnny rubbed his eyebrows, not that he was worried about anything.

After all, this is a document sent by Alpha, and there is absolutely no possibility of a fake or strange place.

Since it was an order from his boss, Johnny would naturally obey and carry it out, and at the same time would not express any doubts.

Because Johnny knew that the suspicions raised by his wisdom might have been thought of long ago.

So, Johnny called the head of the lab, Fastos, directly.

After telling everything about it, Fastos rubbed his eyebrows and said, "This source will only give me a problem, and I actually want to build an aerospace orbital base."

Johnny frowned, "What's the matter, what's the problem, I remember you haven't already built a spaceship that can be used for space travel?"

Fastos frowned, "No, you don't understand the difference, if he wants me to build another spaceship, I won't have any problems."

"But what he's going to build this time is an aerospace orbital base, and there are many technical difficulties that the spacecraft doesn't have."

"For example, the complete internal supply system mentioned by Yuan involves various technical problems in various aspects, at least I am still working on some of them."

"Actually, these are not important problems, sooner or later they can be overcome, but the most important of them is that we do not yet have the ability to send such a large space base into low earth orbit."

Johnny suddenly interrupted, "Wait, I don't understand these technical details, and you're telling me how long it will take me to do this?"

Fastos thought for a moment and said, "Three years!"

Johnny frowned, "But the plan says it will only take a year at most?"

"Forget it, I can't understand with you, you wait."

After Fastos finished speaking, he directly clicked on the screen a few times, and a moment later, Huang Yuan's video image also appeared in the communication.

"Is it the Sky Eye Project?" After Huang Yuan is connected, he goes straight to the road with a single knife.

Fastos said bluntly, "Boss, with all due respect, your proposal is too demanding."

"Not to mention the other technical problems of the orbital base, it would be troublesome to put this behemoth into low-earth orbit alone."

Huang Yuan said calmly: "After modularizing the major parts, the spacecraft will be sent to low-earth orbit for assembly, so it should be less difficult."

Fastos frowned and said, "Boss, I've already thought about this, if it's an ordinary space station, I can only complete it in a month."

"But your request is very technically difficult, the most typical is the weaponized module, which is not something that can be easily solved by modularity."

"It will take me at least two years to overcome the technical difficulties!"

Huang Yuan asked again, "Fastos, how long will it take to assemble it all on the ground?"

Fastos frowned and hesitated before saying, "If you build and assemble on the ground, and overcome the problem while building, it is indeed possible to completely solve it within a year."

"But in that case, the air-orbital base will not be able to send it into space with the current human technology."

"Even with our most advanced engines today, the air-rail base will be torn to pieces due to size, acceleration, inertia, gravity and other reasons."

Huang Yuan frowned and said, "Where is the most critical problem, or solution?"

Fastos pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I can solve all these problems."

"But the conditions on Earth have limited me."

Huang Yuan asked, "For example?"

"If you can solve the problem of basic materials, for example, then a lot of other problems will be solved," Fastos said.

"But as you know, basic materials science has reached a bottleneck on Earth."

Huang Yuan was puzzled, "We have the Eternals, the Atlanteans, the Skuru, and the Aesir gods

Couldn't you solve it with the help of the clan and other scientists?"

Fastos shook his head and said, "Even if the earth's minerals are forged in the best way, they can't meet the strength of the materials required by the air orbit base."

Huang Yuan asked again, "What's going on with the spaceship at the New Los Angeles headquarters?"

"Didn't you say it could withstand galactic voyages?"

"It's about hull dynamics, energy engines, hull structure and so on," Fastos explains.

"All in all, in a word."

"Spaceships and space bases are not the same, and they need to be taken care of in different ways."

"That's why the No. 3 alloy I developed is capable of being a subject material."

"Moreover, the fact that the ship is capable of galaxy-level flight does not mean that the ship will have a long age of service on flight."

"Of course, we are also researching and solving this problem."

Huang Yuan was speechless now, he had collected so many top-notch scientists, even scientists from the cosmic race, and he couldn't solve this material problem?

Fastos seemed to know what Huang Yuan was thinking, so he explained, "Actually, no matter what race you are, there is a solution to this problem."

"The problem is that the earth doesn't have the material they know, or that their knowledge doesn't apply to the earth."

"It's like if you send a top nuclear physicist to a desert island, he might not live as long as a civilian."

Huang Yuan was stunned, and then a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.

He looked at Fastos and asked, "Do you know vibranium?"

Fastos nodded, "I know, who is engaged in research doesn't know such a top-level material as vibranium."

"Honestly, if there is enough vibranium for me to study, then a lot of the material problems will be solved."

"Because one of the key points of science is basic materials science, as you know."

"But the problem is that there is too little vibranium circulating in the market, and even if you really buy all of them, you can't support the construction of important parts."

Huang Yuan shook his head and said, "No, vibranium is actually not as little as you think."

"On the contrary, there will be many."

Fastos looked surprised, and his mind suddenly understood something as he thought quickly.

He said suspiciously, "Are you saying that some ancient forces or countries have secretly hidden vibranium?"

"But this doesn't make sense, as long as you are willing to study for such a long time, your scientific and technological strength will definitely surpass that of most countries now."

"But at present, no one in the world has shown this kind of strength."

Huang Yuan nodded and said, "You predicted correctly, but there are two possibilities."

"One is that they don't do scientific research at all, they simply use it as a weapon or a tool."

"The other is that they have developed advanced technology, but they have hidden themselves."
