Chapter 588: Shortcuts for overtaking

After connecting the control terminal of the industrial robot to Xiao Ai's server, Lu Zhou turned to leave the underground laboratory after instructing it not to mess with what he put in the laboratory without permission.

The things listed on the list that Xiao Ai gave her were not particularly difficult materials, and it was so troublesome not to buy them online.

After ordering one in the name of the Institute of Computing Materials, Lu Zhou moved things to an underground laboratory.

I could n’t even thank you, Xiao Ai, who got the “new toy”, immediately played with interest.

Standing next to Lu Zhou, he watched it operate a six-axis universal robotic arm, skillfully opened the toolbox, pulled a hammer out of it, and then another robotic arm picked up a logistics vehicle to deliver it. Aluminium sheet, then hit it on the concrete floor.

Looking at the mindless operation, Lu Zhou didn't know what it wanted to do.

Listening to the snoring voice, his eyebrows twitched, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't stop it. He just explained a word not to break the ground, and then turned and left the laboratory.

In two days, he had to go to Shanghai for a meeting, but he didn't take care of it for the time being.

Lu Zhou's only idea now is that he hopes that after he returns, this guy will not toss his laboratory too strangely ...

...

Morning on March 6.

A red banner was posted at the gate of Shanghai University of Aeronautics and Astronautics to welcome the conference on the moon landing project.

Both the organizer and the participants of this meeting are not small. The topics discussed at the meeting are naturally extraordinary. Security work has been done from the school's auditorium.

With a strange look on the police explosion-proof car parked by the asphalt road, the two young ladies and sisters passing by outside the library whispered.

"Which big man has come to inspect the school?"

"No, I heard it seemed to be a meeting with a man on the moon."

"Manned to the moon?" The slightly taller girl wondered. "When can we go to the moon?"

"I don't know ... but it's because we can't get on board temporarily, so we have to discuss how to get on board."

Just then, a gentle voice came from the side.

"Classmate, how do you go to the auditorium of your school?"

At the sound of this conversation, the two girls stopped.

He cast a look at him for inquiry, and the slightly taller girl asked.

"Did you come to that meeting?"

Lu Zhou nodded: "Well, that's right."

The tall girl pointed at the road on the right and continued.

"... Go straight down this road and turn right at the second intersection."

Lu Zhou looked in the direction she was pointing, and was about to say thank you. Another petite girl next to her suddenly made a noise.

"Wait, you you you, is it Lushen?"

Seeing her excited response, Lu Zhou gave a slight stun, and then embarrassed and smiled.

"Let me call Lu Zhou or Professor Lu."

I didn't expect to be able to meet the fans on his scarf here. It was a coincidence.

The petite girl stared straight at him and said excitedly, "It's quite far from the auditorium here. If you come here for the first time, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find, or I'll take you there!"

Looking at her enthusiasm, Lu Zhou couldn't help crying, "I don't have to be so troublesome, I just walk over."

Then, he thanked the two, then turned and walked away in the direction the girl had previously pointed.

"... It turned out to be Lu God!" Looking at the back that was going away, the petite girl said with a look of emotion, but at this moment, it seemed that she suddenly remembered something, and the emotion of that face changed instantly. Repented, "Ah! I forgot to ask him for an autograph!"

The tall girl looked at her silently: "What's the use of asking him to sign?"

"Do you still need to ask? Bless me not to go to school!"

"..."

...

Without spending a lot of effort, Lu Zhou quickly found the auditorium along the path pointed by the student.

Presenting his meeting certificate, Lu Zhou, who passed the security check at the door, walked into the venue.

Judging from the logo in the venue, not only the two central enterprises of Aerospace Technology Group and Aerospace Science and Industry Group, Lu Zhou even saw the three BAT Internet giants, and private high-tech enterprises such as Warwick in the list of participating companies.

Affected by Spae-X, global private aerospace companies are gradually moving from unpopular to warming up, and China is no exception.

Although the aerospace-related technologies are basically monopolized by the two central SOEs of aviation and aviation, in fact, at a certain 15-year meeting, it was proposed that the integration of civil and military should be promoted into a national strategy.

For example, onespae, the first private aerospace company in China, Satellogi, a penguin's silent investment, and Ali ’s “Tianmao International” communication satellite and “Candy Tank” mini space station, etc. In the exploration, the role played by private enterprises is gradually becoming important.

I have to admit that in terms of the ability and motivation to explore new technologies, new fields, and innovation, private enterprises have indeed performed better than state-owned enterprises.

Obviously it is also clear that this is why the senior management will gradually open the relevant markets through reforms.

Just as Lu Zhou was about to find a spot to sit down, suddenly someone called his name from behind.

Stopped, Lu Zhou looked back and saw a man in a suit, about 50 or 60 years old, walking towards this side with a smile on his face.

Staring at him for a while, Lu Zhou gradually remembered his name.

Xu Yuanming is the second leader of the Ministry of Science and Technology.

At the commendation conference for controllable fusion engineering, he talked a little with this.

"Secretary Xu?" He laughed and shook his right hand, Lu Zhouhan sighed, "It's been a long time."

"Haha, actually two months," shook Lu Zhou's right hand with enthusiasm and released it. Xu Yuanming smiled and said, "The meeting is about to begin, let's talk as we walk."

At the invitation of Xu Yuanming, Lu Zhou went with him in the direction of the auditorium.

On the way, through the conversation with Secretary Xu, Lu Zhou also had a preliminary understanding of the current status of the domestic space industry.

Especially on the budget he cares about most.

Overall, the situation is very pessimistic.

At present, China's aerospace budget is only about 2 billion US dollars per year, and this is still Long March, Beidou, Chang'e, Shenzhou, Tianzhou, Tiangong and so on.

At the time, the total US investment in the Apollo plan reached $ 22.5 billion, accounting for 0.57% of US GDP at that time! It is not easy to calculate how much this $ 22.5 billion is worth, but it was more than enough to build an aircraft carrier battle group at that time.

This shows how much money is spent on space!

What's more, there are industrial heritage, engine technology accumulation, etc. These problems are not necessarily solved by spending money.

Secretary Xu's seat is next to Lu Zhou.

After sitting down with Lu Zhou, he slowly spoke and continued.

"We are not inferior to Western countries in small rockets, but we have a big gap with the United States and Russia in the carrying capacity of large rockets."

"The carrying capacity of the Long March V in low-Earth orbit is only 25 tons, in the synchronous orbit it is only 18 tons, and in the Earth-moon transfer orbit it is only about 8 tons. And for our Shenzhou 11 manned spacecraft, the takeoff mass is almost 8 tons. Considering this figure, considering that the moon landing spacecraft must be redesigned for the magnetic field environment of the moon, it must also carry a lunar capsule with a weight of at least 3 tons and a living capsule of more than 5 tons. The final weight of the entire moon landing spacecraft may exceed 20 tons. "

"With our current rocket technology, it is almost impossible to complete the manned landing on the moon."

Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully.

The engine thing involves a whole set of industrial systems, and this kind of thing cannot be solved overnight. If you want to overtake a curve, you can only find another way.

Just then, his heart moved a little, and he said.

"Why not consider electric push?"

"Electric push?" Xu Yuanming nodded slightly, and then shook his head with a smile. "The thrust of the electric push is used to transfer the trajectory, but it is too far away to launch the rocket."

Lu Zhou continued: "We can build an electromagnetically accelerated land-based mass launcher on the ground, drop unmanned components into low-Earth orbit, and then push it to the moon with a plasma engine."

It happens that the controllable fusion power station has also been built, and the cost of electricity will not be too high. It is a pity not to use it. Although this device may sound a bit sci-fi, it is not technically impossible.

After all, on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, have you considered firing satellites with artillery ...

Xu Yuanming: "How do astronauts get up?"

Lu Zhou: "Board from the space station."

China has no ability to send people to the moon, but there is nothing wrong with sending people to space.

It seemed to be stunned by this amazing proposal. Xu Yuanming stayed there for a while and didn't speak. After a long time, he laughed and said, "... this sounds very interesting. Fantastic. "

Lu Zhou smiled and did not deny it.

"Bold assumptions, careful verification. How dare you not even think about it?"

After all, Xu Yuanming was not a technician, but just because he had a little understanding of working contacts, he did not continue to discuss this issue with Lu Zhou.

After a pause, he continued.

"At present, our strategic focus is still on the construction of cross-regional power grids and controllable fusion power stations. High-level executives agree that it is more important to be down-to-earth and focus on current interests than distant interests."

"A lot of people proposed to postpone the moon landing plan to 2030, but the leader thought your opinion was equally important, so they discussed a compromise solution at the meeting."

Lu Zhou asked: "A compromise?"

Secretary Xu smiled mysteriously, and did not elaborate, but looked at the stage: "The meeting is about to begin soon, just to talk about this matter, you will know if you continue to watch."
