Infrastructure: Start to Repair The Elevator in Mount Everest

Chapter 303

Rumbling rumbling–

At this moment, it moved with the sound of the huge propeller.

The ground crew of the airport moving up the mountain and reclaiming the sea has already brought platform loading vehicles and equipment to meet the rocket propellers carrying the helicopters.

And Li Qi was standing by the window of the conference room at the moment, and he saw a carrier helicopter like a harrier, hovering firmly above the airport.

The three ground crews moving mountains and reclamation below are waving their batons, commanding the movement of the carrier helicopter in the air.

Watching this scene, Li Qi’s gaze was immediately attracted by what the helicopter slowly lowered.

That is the rocket booster that the cabin will use today.

At this moment, following Li Qi’s gaze, the first thing that came into his eyes was the huge two Chinese characters exposed by the rocket launcher.

“Quick boat?”

Li Qi, who is not very professional in aerospace, was a little astonished when he saw these two words.

“China not only has the “Shenzhou” series? When will there be the “Quick Boat” series?”

At this moment, looking at such a copycat name, Li Qi’s heart immediately rose with great curiosity.

And this ‘Quick Boat Rocket’, at this moment, as the towing rope continues to descend, gradually began to show its full picture.

And Li Qi’s gaze was watching closely at the time when the rocket sealed by the tarp landed slowly.

As the commanders below all stopped swinging their clubs.

The carrier helicopter, which had been constantly shifting its position, immediately hovered in place.

02 followed by a “click” sound.

Li Qi heard a clear metal sound in the distance.

The tow hook above the rocket was disconnected from the carrier helicopter by the ground crew. As the covered tarp fell, it was put away by the ground crew.

At this time, Li Qi, who had been looking at the rocket in the distance, when he saw the look of the “Quick Boat” rocket, he was only slightly surprised why he was so slim, but Director Li suddenly shrank his pupils and exclaimed:

“Quick Boat Rocket?”

“What? Director Li, is there anything wrong with the Fast Boat series?”

At this moment, as Director Li exclaimed, Li Qi’s heart immediately felt a thud. For fear of any accident.

At this moment, Director Li looked at the fast boat rocket that looked like a telephone pole in the distance, and couldn’t help but say:

“It’s not wrong, it’s just that the thrust of this kind of rocket is relatively single, and it is generally used for a single work in the military industry.”

“This propulsion…”

At this time, listening to Director Li’s voice gradually falling down here, Li Qi immediately sweated on his head:

“Director Li, do you mean that the propulsion power of this Kuaizhou rocket cannot meet our requirements?”

At this moment, just as Li Qi was surprised, an expert from Jiuquan behind him suddenly stepped forward:

“Mr. Li, Bureau Li, it’s okay.”

“Um?”

At this moment, listening to the experts’ words, Li Qi couldn’t help but stare:

“Is it really okay? This, this Kuaizhou rocket, won’t it affect our launch mission?”

At this time, another Jiuquan expert came forward one after another:

“President Li, don’t worry. We have calculated that although the Kuaizhou rocket has only one-tenth of the load of the Long March 5, now we only use its propeller. Its current transport capacity is actually It is 10 times that of Long March 5.”

“10 times?”

Listening to the expert’s words, Li Qi couldn’t help being a little stunned.

At this time, the other two experts continued:

“Mr. Li, a large part of the rocket’s ascending weight is in itself, and now we only use the thruster part, which has reduced the total weight of the rocket by 70%, which is nearly 20 tons, and now this part of the weight can be completely transformed into a carrier. force.”

“Yes, President Li, after removing the heavy shell, pulling a car is just easy. What’s more, we have the help of a space elevator. The current Kuaizhou rocket only needs to reach half of the position. ”

Hearing this, Li Qi’s eyes moved.

Space elevator?

“Now that the space elevator can come in handy?”

At this time, following Li Qi’s question, the Jiuquan expert who spoke first couldn’t help but say:

“Yes, it’s all right.”

“Mr. Li, according to current calculations, we were originally relying on the cable to launch the car this time.”

“In this case, we considered from the beginning. After the propeller pushes the car away from the gravitational layer, according to your previous idea, by relying on the earth to rotate, let the car use the pulley to directly reach the space capsule by means of inertial force. ”

“Therefore, I dare to pack a ticket and use the fast boat rocket thruster as a propulsion force. It will not have any impact on our completion of the plan.”

At this moment, listening to the explanations of the experts, Li Qi and Director Li looked at each other, and both saw a touch of shock in each other’s eyes.

The cost of the Kuaizhou rocket only costs a few hundred thousand for launch.

But a Long March series rocket can only start at more than one billion yuan.

In contrast, the space elevator that uses the rotation of the earth to complete the launch of spacecraft will undoubtedly take China’s aerospace industry to a new level.

This is the meaning of the space elevator.

“…”

Standing in place, after seeing the rocket entering the workshop, Li Qi, who was shaking in his heart at this moment, took a sigh of relief, and immediately solemnly picked up the walkie-talkie:

“Attention all units, immediately start the final stage of assembly.”

“…”

At the same time, in the Jiuquan Workshop.

At this moment, the car, bearings, pulleys, and cables are basically in place, just waiting for the rocket propellers to be in place.

And as Li Qi’s order was issued from the walkie-talkie, the expert who was directing the test immediately greeted:

“All departments should pay attention to the suspension of the rope transportation test first, and the relevant personnel will transport all the ropes out at a speed.”

“The rocket thruster is here, let’s do a fake test of the rocket thruster first!”

“Speed ​​up.”

As the expert’s voice sounded, the busy people became more and more dexterous.

At this moment, in front of the leading experts, 20 huge receivers immediately began to run wildly, shrinking the aluminum-magnesium alloy cables in the cabin.

Chi Chi Chi Chi——

As the cable was quickly pulled out of the cabin, the anxious expert immediately came to the center door.

It didn’t take long before the experts discovered a huge platform truck at the connection of the workshop, which was dragging the rocket creaking toward the assembly center.

Looking at the huge rocket thruster behind the opponent, the experts at the moment couldn’t help but stare blankly.

This is much more than I thought.

With a tight heart, for fear that the rocket thruster might get a little bump, the expert at this moment quickly yelled at the walkie-talkie:

“Quickly, open the gate and raise the height of the gate.”

“The rocket is coming.”

“The robotic arm is ready.”

“Yes.”

“The stevedores prepare.”

“Yes.”

With a loud roar, many workers have arrived at the demolition position with their vehicles.

And watching the platform truck gradually arrive, the experts at this moment almost dare not move their eyes, for fear that the rocket will be touched by a little bit.

“Go on, slow down.”

“The demolition staff in front, while disassembling, use the robotic arm to directly erect the rocket!”

“Remember, when the rocket is erected, the car cabin must be directly in place, and the welding must be carried out after the simulation trial installation!”

“understand?”

“clear!”

With a hum, as the experts spoke, everyone at the moment immediately rushed to their posts.

At this moment, the demolition staff, with a rush of energy, waited for the vehicle to arrive, and immediately opened the roof of the factory building according to the original plan.

At this moment, watching the top of the warehouse slowly open, the experts were not idle, and immediately began to report on the current progress:

“Commander in chief, the rocket has officially entered the final assembly position, the roof of the factory building has been opened, and the rocket assembly has been basically ready.”

“After approval, we can start the assembly immediately.”

At this moment, as the expert reported, Li Ming at the moment received the news, and immediately looked at Li Qi eagerly.

“Boss, the final assembly can begin.”

At this time, Li Qi glanced at Director Li beside him faintly. After the opponent nodded firmly, Li Qi’s eyes flashed, and he directly ordered:

“Start assembly!”.
