Chapter 18: Xisha Aviation City

Zhang Yuan came to the train station non-stop.

A message was displayed on the mobile phone: "[Dahua Transport] Dear passenger Zhang Yuan, your ticket has been successfully paid at 10:03. On July 14, 2264, the second seat of G888, Donghua (10:30)- Xisha (11:45), ticket number 781234 ... "

It was almost time, Zhang Yuan boarded the train and found his seat.

柔和 A soft electronic sound sounded in the carriage: "This train is going to Xisha, which lasts one hour and fifteen minutes ..."

The gray-black bridge across the sea lies on the sea like a long dragon. Modern carbon nanotube materials can handle even 36,000 kilometers of space elevators, not to mention a small sea-crossing bridge on the ground.

These bridges can easily withstand typhoons of magnitude 16.

The traditional means of transportation, airplanes, will be eliminated. Fuel is not much of a problem. Hydrogen fuel can be used to replace traditional fossil fuels, but the carrying capacity and operating cost of the aircraft cannot be compared with maglev trains.

Coupled with the fact that the speed of maglev trains is already close to that of airplanes, the fares are cheap and comfortable, and there is no tinnitus problem caused by air pressure, so airplanes have gradually lost their competitiveness and are on the verge of elimination.

After an hour, several fuzzy shadows finally appeared on the azure sea level, the fusion nuclear power plant.

The fusion nuclear power station at Erhai Lake has a height of 300 meters. Because of the huge heat dissipation, the surrounding white mist is all steam. The distilled water is collected and used by the city.

Xisha Aviation City, located in the southernmost waters of Xia Kingdom, had territorial disputes with surrounding small countries hundreds of years ago. Various incidents of detaining fishing boats and wiping fires often occur.

However, the times are developing and the society is advancing. With the rise of Xia Guo, these **** disputes have all become clouds.

"Controlled nuclear fusion is really a good thing. How much does it cost to use 3 cents a kilowatt-hour for industrial production? Other countries still play with eggs?"

The plutonium nuclear fusion power station has a not so wonderful feature: the larger the nuclear power plant, the more stable the operation, and the lower the cost of power generation. Coupled with the limitations of human technology, there is no way to miniaturize nuclear fusion devices, so each nuclear fusion power plant is like a small mountain peak.

The nuclear fusion and space economy made Xia Guo the first country to eat crabs, and it made a lot of money, so it is not uncommon to leak a little soup to the younger brothers. Territorial disputes are long gone. Those who get the way help more, those who do n’t help the less, and interest is the closest bond between nations.

The plutonium train rushed past the nuclear power plant.

"Look, look! It's a space elevator!"

"Where?"

"That one ... the hair is as thin as silk."

Squinting, you can see a slender pillar towering above the sea of ​​clouds, like a kite line.

Under the sun's rays, there is a bright and unrealistic sense.

高.

Too high……

Many people who saw the space elevator for the first time couldn't help but lie on the glass window and took photos.

The legendary "Babylon Tower", a historical miracle, has a total of 17 on this planet. It is expected to increase to more than 30 in the next 30 years.

Xisha Aviation City has the first space elevator "Tengyun" in human history. Its geographical location is about 300 kilometers from the equator. Keeping the space elevator with a slight **** can maximize the use of the Earth's rotation power, so that the elevator has greater carrying capacity.

After nearly a century of development, Xisha is already an international city.

"Willn't it fall down?"

怎么 "How is it possible? The principle is different. Space elevators rely mainly on tension, not pressure. Do you understand the tension of a rope?"

"Will terrorists hit this tower?" Those who have good things open their minds and think wildly.

"... It is said that attacking a space elevator is equivalent to launching a nuclear war and will be subject to revenge on a peer-to-peer basis. The security of Xisha City is relatively strict. There are troops stationed nearby and aircraft are not allowed to pass ..."

"Brother, you are already in Xisha City? I just saw your circle of friends ~~~"

At this time, Ye Qingqing, my aunt ’s daughter, called and said, "Are you going to space? I really want to go to a space tour, but my parents want me to work hard and make money to make money. For a trip of 30,000 yuan, I earn The year of the monkey ... "

She was almost envious of death.

"Space tourism, in fact, it is not wonderful at all, I really mean it." Zhang Yuan said with a smile, "work slowly and study first, under 18 years old, you can't get a tourist visa at all."

Obtaining a visa is one thing, and getting a tourist seat is another.

Space elevators have limited daily cargo volume, so there are not many tourist places. If you spend money, don't say it, you may have to trust the relationship. In this era, the worldly thing will not be completely eliminated.

In this conversation, the speed of the train stopped slowly.

"Dear passengers, the terminal-Xisha has arrived. Please bring your own luggage and get off ..."

When the train arrived, the tourists looked excitedly at the space elevator not far away. No matter where in the corner, as long as they looked up, they could always see the thick Tianzhu.

This mighty power from technology and industry can fully inspire the national pride of the Xia people. Almost all space elevators in the world have Xia Guoren's technology and shares in it.

I have had more contacts, but Zhang Yuan didn't feel anything, he just rented an unmanned motorboat by himself.

"Wow!"

The motorboat sailed quickly in Xisha City, and the splashing water splashed all over.

Xisha City is like summer all year round, but the temperature in July is still less than 30 degrees, which is much more comfortable than Donghua City anyway.

城市 The city is basically artificial islands. There are bridges between the islands and islands. There are a lot of waterways below, and sometimes you can see some tropical fish.

I once had a leader pat their heads and wanted to fill up these waterways and replace them with land routes to improve transportation efficiency. As a result, they faced unanimous opposition from the masses because ... they felt that motorboats were more fun and could attract tourism.

Facts have proved that the people are really right once. The omnipotent aerial orbit solves the traffic problem, and water transportation really promotes tourism.

"Drip ... The cost of this service: 16 yuan."

Zhang Yuan stepped off the motorboat and came to his destination.

"I'm an astronaut on the Earth Age. Can I report now?"

The service staff of the Deep Space Planning Bureau brushed his ID card, smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Zhang Yuan, your holiday is 19 days away. It's too early. It's not your turn to take off the batch. . "

"No ... I just want to ask, is there a place to live?"

The service staff said with a smile: "Sorry, if you arrive 3 days earlier, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com will help you arrange your accommodation. But now, there seems to be no such arrangement."

"You may go to the university next door to see if there is an empty university dormitory. I will help you to get an astronaut certificate."

Zhang Yuan frowned, who came too early and was suspected of being abandoned. This kind of thing is normal, and the service staff just do things according to the rules.

"Let's do that, thank you."

"You're welcome!"

很多 Many aviation universities are stationed here, and some are international schools that recruit students from all over the world. However, because of the summer vacation, most of the students are on vacation, leaving nothing in the university.

Soon after, Zhang Yuan saw the four big characters of "Xisha University". Since he looks more like a student, he is not hindered from entering the school.

Zhang Yuan asked several people in a row before he came to an office building, [Deep Space Foundation (Xiasha University Branch)]

"Hello, I want to meet Wang Zhong, Professor Wang."

"Do you have an appointment?"

"... no appointment."

"Sorry, Professor Wang is very busy without an appointment."

As a last resort, Zhang Yuan could only come up with a big killer, an astronaut certificate, and his father's ID.

Although this kind of reliance on dad is shameful.

"I'm Zhang Qiming's son, so I said ... Could you please visit Professor Wang Zhong?"
