Chapter 414: An Asteroid That Changed Its Trajectory
"When you first proposed to go to the Institute of Plasma Physics, I knew that you must have an idea for nuclear fusion, but I didn't expect you to conquer controlled nuclear fusion technology in such a short period of time."
"When I first heard the news, even I couldn't believe it."
In a lounge of the Academy of Sciences, Hou Shengchang looked at Xu Yun in front of him, and said these words with a smile on his face.
The whole process did not hide the joy on his face in the slightest.
He can be said to be very familiar with Xu Yun, and when he received news from Xu Yun that he wanted to participate in the research and development of the artificial sun project, he knew that Xu Yun must have relevant ideas.
That's why he agreed without hesitation.
He thought that this would promote the research of the artificial sun project, but he still underestimated Xu Yun's ability.
In such a short period of time, the controlled nuclear fusion technology has been directly conquered.
At this time, Li Houlin, who was next to him, also interjected: "I knew that you were so good at nuclear fusion devices, so I should have transferred you to the artificial sun project in advance." ”
"In this way, maybe controlled nuclear fusion has been solved a long time ago."
The words were full of praise for Xu Yun.
In the face of the praise of his two old leaders, Xu Yun still said modestly with a smile: "This time, I was able to successfully conquer controlled nuclear fusion, and it all depends on the support of the Institute of Physics, and I can't solve such an important scientific research project by myself." ”
"Okay, let's not talk about this today." Hou Shengchang waved his hand and said.
He is very aware of Xu Yun's character, although a scientific research project of such a large scale as controlled nuclear fusion will definitely not work on one person.
But to successfully conquer it, Xu Yun must have played a crucial role.
Otherwise, the Institute of Plasma Physics would not have been able to continue the reaction of the tokamak fusion device for thousands of seconds.
Immediately afterwards, Hou Shengchang did not delay any longer, and directly turned the topic to business in the next second.
That is, about the ceremony of awarding the highest medal of honor of the country.
"This time, we attach great importance to controlled nuclear fusion, and we have made an exception to award you this highest medal of honor."
"Among the dozen or so people who have received this honor in the past, you are the only one who has awarded the honor."
"To be honest, this makes me and Lao Li envious."
Hou Shengchang is not wrong at all, the country's highest medal of honor has only been won by a dozen scientific researchers.
And some of them are no longer alive.
This is the first time since the establishment of the plaque that additional places were signed and the award ceremony was held at such a time.
What's more, although he and Li Houlin are the presidents of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering respectively, they are not yet eligible to receive this national medal, which symbolizes the highest honor.
Especially thinking of Xu Yun's age, how could he not be a little envious.
However, envy is envy, and the two of them are more happy that Xu Yun has won such an honor.
After all, this is also the scientist trained by their research institute.
"In addition to the award ceremony in a few days, there will be relevant honors delivered to your hometown at that time, and money will be allocated from above to build your personal honor hall in your county."
"It can be said that you are now the top scientist in our country."
Li Houlin took Hou Shengchang's words and added a few things about winning the highest medal of honor.
The process of speaking did not hide the smile on his face in the slightest.
Xu Yun listened to all the words of the two of them, and had a better understanding of this honor.
I didn't expect that in addition to the award ceremony, even my hometown would have many benefits.
Thinking that the news will be transmitted back at that time, I am afraid that the genealogy will really have to open a separate page for him to rebuild.
After that, Hou Shengchang and Li Houlin explained to him some precautions for participating in the award ceremony, and the conversation between the three of them ended after telling about this.
……
……
Two days later.
The ceremony of awarding the Order of Honor, the highest national honor, officially began.
And the whole process was broadcast live on the main station.
At about eight o'clock in the morning, I saw Xu Yun taking a special car from the place where he was arranged.
Go to the synagogue where the award ceremony was held.
During this period, in addition to the road being closed and people standing on both sides of the guard, there were guards escorting the front and rear of the special car.
It can be called full of noodles.
And the audience, who had been waiting in front of the screen for a long time, was also very excited and excited after seeing Xu Yun set off.
For ordinary people, they may have fantasized about this scene countless times.
I hope that I will have the opportunity to reach the top of my life.
But now the real picture is in my eyes, but there is no jealousy in my heart.
Just because it was Xu Yun who was sitting in the car.
The strongest scientist in history who has just solved controlled nuclear fusion.
If you click on the relevant video posted by the official account at this time, you will see that the comment area is full of congratulations.
The mood is very high.
"It's so handsome Xu Yuan, it deserves it."
"To be honest, this kind of platoon is only a scientist like Xu Yuan, and it doesn't make me feel uncomfortable."
"It's so rowed!"
"See, this is our senior brother of Beijing University."
"Back then, Xu Yuan and I were still high school classmates, was I proud?"
"I'm very much looking forward to the next scientific research project of the Xu Academy, the importance should not be lower than nuclear fusion, right?"
……
There are also many old acquaintances of Xu Yun in the comment area, as well as new students of Jingzhou University, all of whom are proud of having this relationship with Xu Yun without exception.
But there are even more people who are curious.
I look forward to the scientific research projects that Xu Yun will be responsible for in the future.
As we all know, Xu Yun has successively developed superconducting materials at room temperature and successfully conquered controllable nuclear fusion, which can play a huge role in the development of human civilization.
At present, room-temperature superconducting materials and controlled nuclear fusion have begun to be applied, and Xu Yun definitely does not need to continue to be responsible.
After all, with Xu Yun's strength and talent, it must be arranged on the most difficult bones.
Otherwise, it's a waste of resources.
But if Xu Yun is asked to be in charge of some less difficult projects, then it is almost the same as overkill.
In this way, for the new project that Xu Yunhui is responsible for, it is expected to be expected.
Maybe it's another black technology.
Meanwhile.
At Xu Yun's home in Jingzhou City, Chen Shihe, Wang Chunfang and their two children also sat in front of the TV on time to watch the live broadcast.
Especially when Xu Yun's figure appeared in the picture, it immediately caused the shouts of the two children.
"Mom and grandma, look, it's Dad, Dad is out."
"Daddy!"
As the eldest Xu Ningxuan is nine years old this year, but she is still as cheerful as when she was a child, and she does not have the same kind of coarseness as her peers in the face of her father on the TV.
Under normal circumstances, as children get older, they may gradually become reticent and extroverted.
Not very fond of talking.
But Xu Ningxuan did not have this change.
As for the old Xu Ziyan, he simply shouted with his sister.
However, if you want to say who has the most complicated emotions at the scene, it must be Chen Shihe as a mother, and Wang Chunfang, another mother.
Looking at her husband and son on the screen, she couldn't help but have mixed feelings for a while.
To be able to cultivate such an excellent son, Wang Chunfang never thought that it was all her own credit, what she did was just to fulfill the responsibilities of a mother.
On the contrary, Xu Yun didn't let her worry too much, and she just relied on herself to grow to this extent.
This is definitely something that countless mothers dream of.
Xu Yun didn't know the reaction of his family, and at the moment he was waiting for the vehicle to arrive at the synagogue.
When he received the highest science and technology award earlier, he had already come to the synagogue to attend the ceremony.
It's just that the row wasn't as big as it is now.
So there's nothing too stressful about it.
That's it.
As time passed, after the special car arrived at its destination, Xu Yun also came out of the car door and walked on the red carpet into the hall.
If it is placed on the person who has won this honor before, because of the age problem, even if he walks this way, he may need help, but this situation does not exist here in Xu Yun at all.
Who made him the first to receive the National Medal of Honor at a young age.
The rest of the day went smoothly, and as the ceremony began, he was awarded the medal and received a certificate signed by himself.
This marked the beginning of his position in the scientific community.
After the award ceremony, Xu Yun did not continue to stay in the imperial capital.
Of course, he did not return to Luzhou Science Island.
Instead, he chose to temporarily return to Jingzhou City to deal with his family's affairs.
The main thing is that he was awarded the highest national honor medal this time, and even his hometown also knew about it.
It is certainly not appropriate to leave it to the two uncles in this way.
In addition, he also planned to take the opportunity to take his mother and child back, and go to his father's grave to tell him the good news.
——
It is also worth mentioning that after Xu Yun returned to Jingzhou City, the power grid and Huajian also acted quickly.
Not only in a short period of time, the location of the first batch of nuclear fusion power stations in the country was determined, and the design and construction began.
The renovation of the main line also began in a big way.
Among them, the core controllable nuclear fusion device in the nuclear fusion power station is in charge of the Institute of Plasma Physics.
And after this news spread overseas, it naturally made many forces envious.
They all took the initiative to express their willingness to cooperate.
Obviously, it has been agreed that everyone really has the power to speak globally.
As the minutes and seconds passed, the temperature of the weather gradually increased in the blink of an eye.
Although Xu Yun resumed his work, he was not in charge of leading the new project for the time being.
Only help in the reconstruction of superconducting lines and the construction of nuclear fusion power plants.
But what all mankind did not expect was that at the stage of rapid development of human civilization and technology, the joy of the people was interrupted by an urgent news in aerospace.
June 7, 2030, the Lunar Palace-1 base.
Today is the most important day for thousands of students, the college entrance examination, and the astronauts in the moon base have just sent the most special blessings to the students who took the college entrance examination on the moon.
This is also a traditional program set after the construction of the lunar base.
In addition to the college entrance examination, catching up with festivals such as the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Spring Festival will also send blessings to the people of the whole country.
In the past, this kind of activity was carried out in the Tiangong space station, but now that mankind has a firm foothold on the moon, it is definitely necessary to place the location on the lunar base.
Today, there are a total of five astronauts stationed at the Yuegong-1 base.
Three of them are newcomers on their first mission.
In addition to various tasks, they also need to explore the moon and space.
During this time, the construction of the lunar base was not continued, but the Office of Space Engineering still launched several rockets.
Not only did it send more lunar rovers to the moon to explore the moon, so as to facilitate the construction of new bases and the exploitation of lunar resources in the future, but also launched several lunar exploration satellites.
Mainly with the control of nuclear fusion, in the future, a controlled nuclear fusion device will be built on the moon, and the satellite around the moon can play a better auxiliary role.
"Let's get to work."
The astronauts in the core module, who were the commanders, gave orders, and several other people began to get busy.
Operate the equipment in front of their respective positions.
They have been working in the lunar base for almost a month, and they are very familiar with the content of the work.
So it's going pretty well.
But at this time, one of the female astronauts seemed to have discovered something special.
Hurriedly debriefed.
"Report, Detector 2 has detected unidentified information."
In an extraterrestrial environment like the moon, no small thing can be overlooked.
So after hearing this, the commander hurriedly went over to check the situation.
"Immediately back to the surface."
After seeing the information detected by the probe, his expression suddenly became serious, and he gave this order without saying a word.
The conditions in the main lunar bases are limited, and it is difficult to make precise analysis and judgment of some special information, which needs to be transmitted back to be determined by the personnel on the ground.
It was precisely because of this information from the lunar base that the entire space system was alarmed, and the relevant researchers in the system were urgently recalled to attend the meeting.
Even Xu Yun was invited to participate.
Originally, Xu Yun was ready to officially start the construction of the nuclear fusion device of the lunar base, but he was dragged to the meeting as soon as he came over, and he couldn't help but have questions about this.
At present, their achievements in the field of aerospace are already the first in the world, and no one can surpass them at all.
Even soon, the moon will usher in the first controllable nuclear fusion device, which can be said to be stable and improving.
In such a situation, if the entire space system can be so strained, there must be something sudden and serious.
Thinking about this, Xu Yun's steps on his feet couldn't help but be faster, and he quickly rushed towards the conference hall.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Zhou Mingwei with a solemn face, so he hurriedly asked, "What happened, it was so urgent?" ”
In the face of Xu Yun and Zhou Mingwei, he would definitely not sell anything, so he simply organized the language and said: "Just now we monitored the trajectory of an asteroid that suddenly changed for some reason, and there may be a possibility of hitting the earth." ”
"We need to recalculate the trajectory and velocity of this asteroid as soon as possible."
Rao is Xu Yun, who is used to seeing big scenes, and his face can't help but sink when he hears the news at this moment.
He knew exactly what people were worried about.
If unfortunately the asteroid's changed orbit coincides with the Earth's orbit, it will definitely be a disaster for mankind.
After all, this kind of thing is not new to the earth in such a long life cycle.
So Xu Yun immediately nodded heavily and said, "I understand." ”
