From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

space agency.

Moon landing program technical summary meeting.

Teacher Zhu attended the meeting with mixed emotions. He looked forward to hearing something new at the technical work meeting.

This meeting is not only a summary of technology, but also a summary of the overall moon landing plan. It is also a discussion and outlook for the next step.

After completing the moon landing plan, the space agency became the focus of much attention.

They spent decades building the space station and landing on the moon step by step. Will there be any other big plans next?

For example, exploring other planets or landing on Mars?

The information released by the space agency previously stated that they will use anti-gravity technology to conduct some aerospace research and development, and have set long-term goals——

Develop a cargo spaceship!

This is just the goal of technology research and development. What is the cargo spacecraft used for? Is it to build a moon base or what?

The space agency is also unclear about its next steps.

at the meeting.

After completing the technical summary, many people began to discuss and express their opinions. Many people focused on establishing a lunar base, while others believed that we should prepare to land on Mars, or expressed opinions that we should increase the number of missions to the outer solar system. exploration.

etc.

There are all kinds of ideas.

Teacher Zhu is not interested in these, because each goal is just a "big talk" for the time being. Now that the goal has been set, there is no specific implementation plan.

That takes many years of hard work and accumulation to accomplish.

After the meeting was over, Teacher Zhu summoned the core figures of the space agency and held a small internal meeting. He wanted to ask how long it would take to achieve the goal of loading the cargo spacecraft.

This issue cannot be discussed at the meeting, because no one dares to issue a military order to specify the time. If it is said and not implemented, it will become a joke.

Many people saw Chen Jiahe.

Among the people who participated in the internal small meeting, Chen Jiahe was not ranked at all. He was just the deputy director of a department. There were directors of several important departments here, as well as the previous heads of the space agency.

However, everyone looked at Chen Jiahe.

The space agency intends to train Chen Jiahe because he is still very young and has a strong ability to do things. After his next goal, most people will definitely not be able to witness it on the job.

Chen Jiahe can, and even hopes to become the direct person in charge.

This is the advantage of age.

When a scientific research project takes more than ten years or decades, young people must shoulder the heavy burden.

Of course, everyone looked at Chen Jiahe because he went to Xihai University and had some face-to-face communication with Wang Hao. He also invited the anti-gravity center team to come to the space agency to provide guidance on anti-gravity technology.

Chen Jiahe did not say anything immediately, but thought about what Wang Hao said to himself, and made up his mind and said, "I don't agree with setting long-term technology research and development goals on cargo spacecraft!"

When these words came out, the whole office was shocked.

Chen Jiahe mustered up the courage to continue, "There is already a space flying saucer in China, which is already a very large aircraft. As long as we carry out aerospace transformation on the basis of the airship flying saucer and expand its size, it can be used to carry cargo. not a problem."

He talked about technical issues, "The airship flying saucer can be self-sufficient in power. As long as the power is increased, it can rise to an altitude of up to 50,000 meters."

"If we install another Hall thruster, we can push it into outer space. The only problem is power, but we can add solar panels..."

"Of course, there are still deficiencies in energy, and the sustainability of the cooling system is a big issue."

"But these problems can all be solved..."

Chen Jiahe said a lot in succession.

The others patiently digested it for a long time.

Zhang Hongqing, director of the Electronic Systems Department, asked, "You mean to say that it is not difficult to manufacture a cargo spaceship based on an airship flying saucer, right?"

Chen Jiahe nodded.

Zhang Hongqing continued to ask, "Then what do you think our long-term technology research and development goals should be?"

"Super large spacecraft!"

Chen Jiahe said affirmatively, and then explained, "We should focus on building that kind of super-large spacecraft that can carry people and cargo, and can go to and from the moon and Mars..."

"Or can it be called a spaceship?"

After Zhang Hongqing answered this sentence, he couldn't help laughing out loud. He pointed at Chen Jiahe and said, "Xiao Chen, I didn't expect that you really have a sense of humor!"

Several others laughed too.

Chen Jiahe argued rationally, "I'm not kidding. Everyone can see the situation in recent years. The development of cutting-edge technology is so fast, and we have not applied many technologies."

"Anti-gravity technology, annihilation force field technology, including first-order materials and superconducting materials, we have very few applications in these new fields."

"Now that we have nuclear fusion technology, how can we use nuclear fusion technology so that we can have enough power? Many spaceships in science fiction movies are powered by nuclear fusion. We have to set a long-term goal. Why can't it be a large-scale Where’s the spaceship?”

Others were still smiling, and someone continued, "Of course the goal is for decades, why can't it be a spaceship?"

"Give us a few decades and we can even build a wormhole!"

"Didn't the NSA make the news public last time? It said that there is a planet very similar to the Earth more than 100 light-years away. I think we can set the goal of landing on that planet and realizing human immigration to the Earth..."

"This is good, this is good!"

A lot of joking voices were undoubtedly denials of Chen Jiahe.

In the eyes of the meritorious veterans of the space agency, aiming to launch a spacecraft to and from the earth, moon, and earth and fire is purely a joke.

Chen Jiahe suppressed his blush and didn't know how to argue.

At this time, Teacher Zhu suddenly spoke seriously. As soon as he opened his mouth, he reprimanded, "Why are you laughing? Be serious!"

"Is there anything wrong with what Comrade Chen Jiahe said?"

"I think you people are just rigid in your thinking! What era is it now? UFOs have been built and nuclear fusion has been realized. Don't you even dare to think about large-scale manned spacecraft?"

"Science and technology outside are revolutionizing, and the space agency should also keep pace with the times!"

"We did complete the moon landing, so what? Decades ago, Amerikan had completed the moon landing, and we were the laggard. Let's look at the cutting-edge science and technology fields, annihilation fields, superconductivity, and materials. New electronic technologies and so on have already surpassed us!"

"We are still lagging behind!"

"Now you are still here laughing. You don't even dare to think about a goal. How can you achieve it? Let me show my support for Comrade Chen Jiahe!"

Teacher Zhu slapped the table and sat down.

No one else dared to speak. They didn't expect that a few small words would make Teacher Zhu so angry.

A group of people saw Chen Jiahe.

Teacher Zhu clearly supports Chen Jiahe’s idea, so the next step may be to set a big goal. Is it really necessary to develop a large spacecraft that can carry people and cargo back and forth?

this……

It’s a bit unimaginable!

Many people can't help but look at their age and think that they have completed the moon landing plan. Is it time to consider retirement?

…

Mason Number Laboratory.

Paul Phil-Jones, Ding Zhiqiang, Chen Mengmeng and Helen are all constantly studying the theoretical design issues of light pressure engines. Their focus is the ultra-high temperature environment control technology of light pressure.

Regarding ultra-high temperature environment control, Paul Phil-Jones believes that in an annihilation force field environment, the temperature requirements for generating light pressure are different, but even if the temperature requirements are reduced, it is certainly not hundreds or thousands of degrees Celsius. What they can do It is the design of temperature control so that the temperature demand can continue to decrease.

Only in this way will it be feasible by the time of research.

If scholars in the physics community knew that Paul, Chen Mengmeng and others were researching engine technology, they would definitely feel that they were overkill.

Engines are just technological applications.

The research of technology is at the bottom of the academic contempt chain. It is really a waste of their talents for a few top theoretical physicists to study technology.

If they knew it was a light pressure engine, their senses would definitely be different.

Go crazy!

The light pressure engine is not a technology that humans can master now, and it is definitely not a technology that can be possessed in this era.

The gap in technological foundations is too great.

Even with annihilation particle technology, high temperature control is a big problem. The minimum requirement to generate light pressure is 50,000 degrees Celsius, and the maximum temperature limit that existing materials can withstand is 7,600 degrees Celsius. This is the latest research from the Institute of Materials Science and Technology of the Academy of Sciences. The research results——

Brand new first-order tungsten-titanium alloy.

The temperature mentioned here does not refer to particle activity, but pure 'conduction temperature', that is, the temperature transmitted to the edge of the container.

Paul Phil-Jones, Ding Zhiqiang and others have set their goal to control the environment above 10,000 degrees Celsius. Only by achieving control of 10,000 degrees Celsius, coupled with a special annihilation force field environment, can it be possible to create a real light pressure.

At this stage, only design demonstration can be carried out.

They believe that the design should be made more perfect, and they can only invest in research after the experimental results are available.

This kind of research does not happen overnight.

Therefore, the research team’s focus quickly turned to the experiments of the Institute of High Energy. The ‘tachyon’ experiment of the Institute of High Energy has been under construction for some time.

Tian Guilin reported the progress to Wang Hao.

The annihilation force field experimental team has completed the basic manufacturing of channel equipment, and the next step is to add some high-precision field force devices and detection devices.

"The renovation has been basically completed."

"The follow-up will take about a month, and we will determine the specific experimental time in the middle of the month."

Tian Guilin just invited Wang Hao to participate in the experiment. It is best to come over some time in advance to provide some guidance on the annihilation force field device and the basis of the experiment.

This will ensure the results of the experiment.

Wang Hao agreed immediately.

Originally, the research was conducted by the two institutions together, and the annihilation force field experimental team sent a team to guide the installation of the equipment.

Now that the transformation work is almost completed, of course they have to go and participate in the experiment. After all, the experiment is a test of the theory, and the theory is what they researched.

soon.

Wang Hao took the research team to the collider experimental base of the Institute of High Energy. They were still talking about related issues on the way.

"What directly affects the maximum speed of particles is the velocity of the field force."

"The speed of field force is the speed of light, and the maximum speed of particles will naturally not reach the speed of light. In a strong annihilation force field environment, if the speed of field force exceeds the speed of light, the speed of particles will exceed the speed of light."

"If it breaks through the field force again, the inertial influence will continue to maintain the particle speed beyond the speed of light, and the time argument of the Theory of Relativity still has merit."

"Particles can maintain a state exceeding the speed of light for a long time..."

"If tachyons can be detected, we will have proven the annihilation particle theory, rather than creating antimatter in the experiment..."

This last point is very important.

All experimental findings of annihilation particles can be explained by 'creating antimatter'.

If tachyons are clearly created, it would not only deny part of the Theory of Relativity, but also prove that annihilation particles were indeed discovered in explosions and experiments.

This will become the crux of the theoretical debate!

…

American, Groom Lake project team base.

Langa Gobin Korana has completely established himself in the project team, and the number of people doing antimatter research with him only accounts for about one-third. But with the support of the new decision-makers and the Ministry of Energy, he has already It can compete with Empoli-Cubo, or even be better.

After Korana came to the project team, he formulated a series of experimental plans and continued to look forward to the research prospects at meetings. "If we can find key evidence of neutron explosions, it will be direct proof of the existence of antimatter."

"That would be a major experimental discovery!"

"We can definitely announce that we have created antimatter!"

"The replica explosion experiments conducted by flower growers also detected the explosion energy, but their signals were unclear and the reliability did not even reach two sigma (95%), while we can reach five sigma (99.99994 %)."

"Of course, there is also the theory of annihilation particles, but who would believe it? The Theory of Relativity is wrong. There will be particles that exceed the speed of light in normal conditions?"

"How ridiculous..."

Korana's words were persuasive and provocative.

Many scientific researchers feel that there is a future in doing research with Corana. If they have a clear goal and the precedent of replicating the explosion experiment, it is very likely to be achieved.

Empoli-Cubo is very depressed.

He complained to James, "I feel like we are providing them with funds and equipment, and we are their logistics department."

"And, more importantly, there is nothing novel about the experiment designed by Korana. We could have done it instead..."

He regretted not supporting antimatter research.

James said amusedly, "Of course, I believe you could do this experiment, but even if you support antimatter research, you cannot lead the experiment."

"Why?"

Cooper suddenly didn't understand.

James' tone was slightly sarcastic, "He is no longer the original decision-maker!"

The original decision-maker has stepped down, and the new decision-maker will only trust the "own people" he promoted. And Empoli-Cubo is labeled as the "previous decision-maker", so how can he be trusted?

Not to mention Cooper, even James.

Cooper said depressedly, "How can scientific research be mixed with these factors? Is it because we are not trusted that antimatter exists in explosion experiments?"

He still believed in Wang Hao.

A large number of physicists believe that the explosion was caused by the cancellation of matter and antimatter, and they also deny the annihilation particle theory of Wang Hao's research group.

However, they are all engaged in antimatter research or are astrophysicists, and their ideas naturally have strong personal tendencies.

If you ask scholars in other fields, they will undoubtedly support Wang Hao. They don't even have to think, they vote with their feet.

Both of them felt depressed.

Research on the DC annihilation force field has been suspended, and many of the pipelines, materials, and equipment they ordered were 'forced to support' Korana's experiments.

The experiment can no longer continue unless new support is obtained.

Most people are also optimistic about the Korana experiment. They hope to discover antimatter through the experiment and conduct antimatter-related research.

For this reason, the newly appointed No. 2 decision-maker took advantage of the opportunity to go around the base and express his support for Corana. During this period, he only shook hands with James and said a few polite words.

Everyone knows that Cooper is already out of his mind.

It is only a matter of time before Korana becomes the person in charge of the Groom Lake Project and is fully responsible for the annihilation field and antimatter projects.

The reason why Kubo can still stay in his position awkwardly is because the experiment has not progressed yet.

If there were any progress, Cooper would be fired immediately.

Kubo also said the same, "I have decided. If Korana succeeds, I will leave!" His words were firm, but unfortunately what he received was not appreciation or support.

Rather, it was a taunt.

"If you don't want to go, you must go."

James said, "When the time comes, they will find a reason to remove you from your position. But I don't have to leave, because I am a scientific researcher, a very important scientific researcher."

"But don't worry, Empoli!"

He patted Cooper on the shoulder sincerely and said, "If you wander on the street one day, I will definitely give you ten dollars to give you a full meal."

"This is our agreement!"

"A man's promise!"

"……roll!"
