If there is any major international event in recent times, it is China’s spaceship race. 3,000 spaceships, at least 100,000 people directly participated, and the materials used, etc., even exceeded the level of the original construction of the New Continent space base. If you want to describe it, it can only be: There is no craziest, only crazier!
This is the opening ceremony of a new era! It is also the most beneficial means to make the country strong and the nation awakened!
Today is the 30th, local time in China, at nine o'clock in the morning. But at this moment, both at home and abroad, everything is quiet; because the game is about to be held in half an hour: a birthday party for mankind to enter the space age! In response, Huaxia and Gaoshou Company dispatched a total of 1,200 small space shuttles to escort, and this is already the largest lineup that can be produced.
At the same time, personnel from Gaoshou Company and the country have completed the final inspection of all spacecraft; the last one is mainly the inspection of the power carried. To ensure fairness, no matter what you carry, the electricity must only be 300 million kilowatt-hours, exactly. Of course, if someone is willing to spend money to install a few general aviation fuel engines and carry a large amount of fuel, no one will care about it. This is a competition, and the competition is not only about oneself, but also beyond oneself - in the space age, competition will become more intense, starting from now on. In fact, there is never absolute fairness in the world; and games with variables will be more exciting.
At 9:05, with the whole world watching, the mysterious supporter of this game made a gorgeous appearance. It turned out to be: the President of China! ! ! For a time, I was shocked by my colleagues around the world - those national leaders; when had the Chinese President become so lively?
The spacious and bright space factory command hall. It became a temporary hosting station and hosting hall, surrounded by various instruments and equipment, and of course cameras, etc.; only a few reporters were busy broadcasting live. Because the cost of space transportation is too high, the only ones allowed to enter space, apart from the Master Company and CCTV, are the news people from Oriental Entertainment Corporation, which they have always cooperated with well.
"Hello everyone, I wish our country and our nation a more glorious and beautiful future. In fact, I am honored to be elected as the host of this competition.
Before the competition, first of all, there is good news. The country is discussing the issue of reducing the cost of space tourism, perhaps in the near future. Everyone will enjoy cheaper space tourism services.
under. First let's take a look and see the lineup that will be competing. 3,000 spaceships from across the country are ready for departure. They are full of energy and full of hope and longing for the future. ”
The camera switched naturally, and the video from the space shuttle began to be broadcast live. 3000 space shuttles have been lined up in a straight line. Relatively stationary to the moon. The distance between each spacecraft is about 1-1.5 kilometers; 3,000 spacecrafts. It stretches for 4,000 kilometers. Looking from the space factory in the middle to both sides, you can see the end at a glance. Looking around, they are all beautiful spaceships that are like works of art. It's in full bloom.
"I announce that the game has officially begun. The countdown begins now: 1 minute..."
The countdown sounded all over the world. At this moment, it is exactly 9:29. In other words, the official time of the spaceship competition is actually 9:30 am on December 30, 2053!
There is no exciting music, and there is no exciting and boring speech; there is just a countdown sound that sounds a bit monotonous.
However, at this moment, in this situation, this countdown sound is more like telling the world that a new space age that allows ordinary people to participate is slowly opening; from now on, aerospace and space tourism will It is no longer the patent of the "nobles", nor will it be a representative of military power. It will be just like a passenger plane, it will be a relatively expensive new mode of transportation. Of course, today's space can only be mainly about tourism; even if the price has dropped now, it is unaffordable for ordinary people. In fact, Gaoshou Company is still discussing the price of space tourism with the country, Baojian Group, Eastern Group, etc.
10, 9, 8……
The last few seconds are the most exciting!
At the eighth second, all web pages were updated simultaneously with the detailed data of all the modified spaceships. Almost every component is marked, such as the weight of the treasury, the ratio of pilots, the power data and functions of the spacecraft, etc. Of course, the main reason for this is that spaceships are actually not very technological. Except for the power and life support devices, its technical content is similar to that of a car. Therefore, there is no need to fear leaks, etc. Maybe the sealing specifications are a little high.
The standard data of the spacecraft are 500 tons, 30 meters in length and 17 meters in height, 3 S001 engines and 6 S01 engines. Nowadays, these two engine technologies are very primitive for the master company, and their cost prices have been reduced to the limit. The total cost of 9 engines is only 15 million yuan; the remaining low-standard batteries cost at least 3 million yuan. The small magnetic field generating device costs about 3 million; the rest is the cost of materials, etc. However, the price can be reduced to such an extent that the price was only a few hundred percent in the early stages of development. In addition to industrial production, it is also due to the rapid progress of science and technology. Another thing that cannot be ignored is that cheap electricity and cheap metal materials in space are also important reasons. If all these spaceships transport raw materials from the ground, the price will be calculated based on how many yuan per gram. Regardless of whether anyone can afford it, at least the master company will not be able to build so many!
All the data is made public, as if a bottle of liquor is given to the gamblers who place bets, making the atmosphere even more lively!
The atmosphere in space seemed to solidify as the countdown ended! Judging from the final video taken, the drivers had resolute faces and focused expressions. Whether it is the participating companies or the individuals piloting the spacecraft, everyone's hearts are full of passion.
Not to mention anything else, just being in the first competition of the space age and being eligible to participate in it is already lucky enough! Even many people, when they are found to pilot a spacecraft, do not need salary, etc., as long as they have the opportunity to enter space. Perhaps the only regret for those rich people is that the top astronauts in the world today mainly belong to countries and expert companies, but they are not open to the outside world. Even if the price reaches tens of millions of yuan, it won't work.
0! ! !
The countdown stops immediately!
In an instant, the whole world seemed to have been turned on. The spaceship was launched at the first moment, and the world was silent at the first moment.
3,000 spaceships started simultaneously, stretching over 4,000 kilometers, and moved in an instant! It was as if a wave, a wave from the universe, was surging crazily. The water vapor billowing out is like a mirage, with blurred colors under the strong sunlight in space. The long exhaust gas continues to extend in the space with no resistance and gravity - hundreds of meters - kilometers - ten thousand meters - until all the spacecraft exhaust has been connected into one, and a faint water vapor envelopes tens of thousands of kilometers in radius. diameter of space, under the sunlight, it seems as if a new world is slowly being nurtured.
At the same time, the 3000 artwork-like spacecraft began to accelerate slowly. But at the beginning, a clear gap began to appear.
Some spaceships only started the three 150-ton thrust S001 engines at the tail; some fully turned on the engines, including 6 S01 engines; but some even started up because they installed ordinary aero engines after modification.
The traces of the aircraft engine being turned on are the most obvious. S series engines are all plasma engines, and they eject light water vapor. Against the background of space and under the sunlight, it has a hazy, crystal-like feeling; while the burned gas ejected by aircraft engines even has Incomplete combustion of substances - after all, it is a private modification, not a regular military application, and the efficiency is not complete. This causes the combustion exhaust to be somewhat turbid. Under the sunlight, it looks like thick smoke, giving people a feeling of billowing smoke.
But I have to say that the modified spaceship is indeed powerful. From the very beginning, he was clearly ahead!
However, if the space race were that simple, it would be meaningless! Precisely because many people are not stereotypical engineers, it also adds endless fun to the competition! (To be continued...)
ps: Haha, the novel will enter the climax soon. Hope to support. In addition, create a new group, welcome to join the discussion.
