The start of science and technology
Chapter 92
"Finally, the counterweight problem." Du Xingyu continued to preside over the meeting. "After preliminary discussion, our research team believes that the counterweight is directly set as a near earth spaceport!"
"We can launch the ''cornerstone'' of the spaceport, that is, the floor module, as the counterweight of the space elevator. Its quality meets the counterweight conditions and can kill two birds with one stone!"
"Agree! This is the best way to save time and resources! There is no contradiction between the two!" said the Russian expert. "At the same time, we can also use the space elevator to directly transport materials to the near earth space port!"
"We agree too!" everyone had no objection to the plan.
"The technical difficulty of the cornerstone module of the spaceport is not high, but it needs a certain technical ability to transport these quality into space," said Du Xingyu. "This part will be jointly completed by China, the United States and Russia."
When the human Guardian alliance was reached, countries exchanged technology. All countries have obtained some aviation technology and are now catching up with rockets and spacecraft.
The scientific research and manufacturing capabilities of the United States should not be underestimated. They are already preparing to build a near earth spaceport and develop space warships.
Of course, China has not fallen behind. It is inevitable that countries cooperate and compete secretly at the same time.
Soon after the meeting, all parts of the "ladder" project, a super project from the ground to space, were started at the same time, and the construction of the main body was officially started!
The implementation of the super project is not without resistance. It is very difficult for countries, major scientific research institutes and enterprises to completely open up barriers and cooperate without interruption.
In addition, there is a momentum of "negativism" in the world. Super projects ignore costs and economic interests, which is bound to affect the interests of many people and capitalists. Therefore, this kind of "negativism" and doubt is not small.
In China, the daily life of the masses has little impact. But abroad, everyone began to attack the human Guardian alliance, claimed that there was no death star at all, and asked to stop these expensive super projects.
Conspiracy theorists believe that this is a conspiracy all over the world, claiming that those rich people intend to build spaceships and escape by themselves.
Although others believe that the death star will hit the earth, they also doubt that human beings are unable to solve the crisis, so they began to pray to various gods, and even fanatics took to the streets to claim that human resistance is an offence to gods
Du Xingyu, who learned the news, can only be glad that his space elevator is located in China, which is not as bad as foreigners. Otherwise, it will be really difficult for them to drag on!
The world is also very concerned about the work progress of the human Guardian alliance. It has been more than a month since the establishment of the guardian alliance. It''s time to report the progress to the world.
Therefore, Du Xingyu, as the commander in chief, stood up to "stabilize the morale of the army".
"Hello everyone, I''m Du Xingyu, the international commander in chief of the human Guardian alliance. The human Guardian alliance has been established for more than one month." Du Xingyu''s figure appears in the TV and webcast rooms, not only in China, but also in the TV stations and webcast rooms all over the world!
In other words, this is a global live broadcast!
"Here, I would like to report to the world on the progress of our work."
"Du Xingyu has finally started broadcasting!" on the network of Huaxia, the audience gathered quickly, and the popularity of the live broadcasting room quickly exceeded 100 million! And there is more than one live broadcasting platform. Each live broadcasting platform is shunting, otherwise the Live Broadcasting website will collapse!
"How''s it going now?"
"I just want to know, have you started?"
"I''m not pessimistic. I think mankind is hopeless. It''s better to build a spaceship to escape!"
People in island countries are also watching this program. They are no strangers to Du Xingyu. These months are all his reports.
From the language of the Nobel Prize ceremony to taking out the "Death Star crisis response plan" and establishing the human Guardian alliance, Du Xingyu is the absolute protagonist.
In North and South American countries, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia, the audience watching this live program at the same time is afraid to reach hundreds of millions!
Du Xingyu continued: "at present, all five parts of our" emergency plan for the Death Star crisis "have been started. The first and second parts are carried out the fastest."
"Space agencies and space research institutions all over the world are working together to manufacture ion thruster remote detection satellites. Next, almost every month, we will launch new detection satellites and planetary communication satellites to fly to the major planets of the solar system!"
"In addition, we will launch a total of five nuclear ion thruster detection satellites to monitor the death star within three years."
Du Xingyu does not need to worry about the part of the solar system satellite network plan, and the space administrations of various countries have the ability to complete it.
The audience listened patiently. Du Xingyu continued to talk and said, "the first part of the space elevator, that is, the super project of ''sky elevator'', has begun to start."
"We expect to build the sky elevator within two years. In the first year, we will build an artificial island and ground station with an area of more than 1000 square kilometers, launch some space weights, and build cables and lift cars in the second year to complete the construction of space elevator."
When Du Xingyu said this, many foreign audiences expressed doubts.
"Two years? He said he would build a 1000 square kilometer artificial island and a ground station for space elevator every year? How is this possible?" British viewers immediately expressed doubts on the Internet.
"Now I think this is a big lie! It will take at least five to ten years to build such an artificial island?"
"Yes, it will take us ten years to build a subway!" the Australian audience agreed.
"He''s bragging!" netizens in the United States and Canada are crazy on the Internet.
There was also an American Bar Jing who said, "this Du Xingyu is no different from our parliamentary candidate. He always talks a lot of big words before the beginning. When he really started, he was like suffering from dementia and didn''t remember anything!"
"When the excuses are found, human beings can wait to die!"
"Agree!" foreign netizens praised his answer one after another.
Du Xingyu is still speaking. He said: "at the request of many viewers, we will have a global uninterrupted live broadcast for about one year in the whole process of space elevator construction until the ground station is completed."
"From today on, from now on."
With that, the camera switched to the blue sea.
This is the aerial picture taken by UAV. This area is the location of the island found by the meteorological experts and engineers of the marine geological exploration team and the TIANTI project team.
The climate here is relatively stable near the equator, and there is no erosion interference of large ocean currents.
"As you can see, we are now at the island building site of Penglai Island. The design area of the inner island of Penglai Island is 1000 square kilometers, and the area of the outer island will be increased in the future. But at present, the most important thing is the construction of the core island reef and the space elevator ground station tower." Du Xingyu explained.
"That''s it?" the audience only saw the vast sea area. Although the scenery was beautiful, who was in the mood to enjoy the scenery at this time?
"1390 companies and research institutions, including Huaxia transportation construction group, Huaxia shipbuilding industry group, the third and eighth research institutes of Huaxia Academy of engineering, have joined the island construction project, and all countries have provided help." Du Xingyu explained that while the picture is still pulling in, the audience has seen dense dots on the ocean.
