From black technology to super engineering

Chapter 349 Win back the initiative in space exploration

white house.

The host stood in the center of the venue, and the nine astronauts who had returned to China stood around him, like stars encircling the moon.

The owner showed his iconic smiling face and completed a group photo that should be participated in as a president.

Afterwards, he ordered his secretary to take the nine astronauts away, and after posting the photos just now to Twitter, he set off immediately, boarded the special plane with the chief scientific advisor, and started heading to California.

The plane left the runway slowly, and the owner put down his reading glasses and mobile phone, and began to close his eyes and rest.

As an 80-year-old man, the flight takes up to seven hours. He must ensure enough rest time to maintain his physical strength and energy.

The snoring gradually started, and the master fell into a deep sleep.

...

Seven hours later, the plane arrived at a small airport in California, followed by another one-hour car drive. When the group arrived at SpaceX's headquarters, it was almost eight o'clock.

Musk and Chief Bowers greeted the old man and walked into the assembly plant together.

Although it was eight o'clock in the evening, the workshop with an area of ​​3,000 square meters was still brightly lit, and countless engineers were constantly busy around an extremely huge spaceship.

"omg, so big?"

After resting all the way, the old man has recovered his energy at this time. With his hands on his waist, he looked up at the giant, which is 120 meters long, 25 meters above the ground, and has its tail spread out for a full 60 meters. Can't add more: "How about Bi Yaoyue?"

Musk glanced at Director Bowers, and said in a deep voice: "It is longer than Yaoyue, and its wingspan is wider."

Hearing that it was "bigger" than the Yaoyue, the old man immediately had a satisfied smile on his face: "How did it take off? Did it take off on the runway? Is it the same as the Yaoyue?"

"It's not exactly the same, but we have learned from their experience. When we take off, we will use the support on the ground to keep the Ares at a 75-degree angle, and mix other fuels to increase thrust to complete the take-off procedure." Pause After that, Musk continued: "As long as we complete the take-off from the earth, the next thing will be easy. When the moon lands, our tail can also be used for support, and support frames will be installed on both sides of the spacecraft."

"Okay, very good, very good!" The old man kept nodding: "How long will it take to install it?"

"According to the current speed, there are still about half a year."

"That means it will be launched next spring?"

Musk frowned without leaving a trace: "It will take a few months after it is installed."

"Why? Oh, to test—I understand."

The people next to him laughed.

From the moment Artemis broke down and had to pay for a ride back, there was a sense of humiliation in this country from top to bottom.

This kind of mentality forced this huge empire to burst out with amazing strength and courage, as well as unprecedented unity.

It can be said that in the past two months, especially in the past few days, everyone in the White House has been in an indescribable anxiety and trouble after the Yueyue returned smoothly.

Until now, when they saw that the Zhanshen had begun to take shape and all the engineers were working overtime, everyone felt a little relaxed.

"Come on, to your office."

...

When they arrived at the office, the security staff directly unplugged the network and telephone lines, and at the same time told everyone to turn off their mobile phones.

The old man sat behind the desk without hesitation, as if he was the boss here. Afterwards, the secretary handed him a paper notebook and reading glasses.

"First of all, we can confirm that they have built a factory on the moon that can automatically produce helium-3."

Speaking of which, the old man raised his head: "This is very important, very important! It is the fuel for our most powerful engine. We must use the fastest speed to build such a factory, and then it will be bigger than they built, and it will be quick!"

"Our Helium 3 engine has been designed and will be built soon, just waiting for Helium 3 to take off!"

Everyone, including Musk, put pen to paper.

Only Musk frowned again.

"Then, the current public opinion on Twitter is not good for us." The old man looked at Musk with a serious face: "Now all the good news on Twitter is the demolition, and every one of my tweets, all It's their guy that's replying... yelling to stay in formation, like the army, Elon, you figure it out."

Musk was stunned.

"Twitter is an open platform, what can I do?"

"I don't care, these remarks must be controlled, otherwise, this battle will not be won."

Musk frowned again, and at the same time took a deep breath: "Boss, I'm afraid not."

"why not?"

"Because..." Musk said softly after a few seconds of silence: "Because if we do this, Twitter may be subject to a large-scale and devastating attack."

The old man was startled, and then said angrily, "Who?"

"Aita."

Musk said calmly.

Frankly speaking, as a self-made CEO and software engineer who has experienced the golden age of the Internet. Musk is actually very desperate about the future of the information industry.

The fusion of Aita + quantum computer is omnipotent in the field of information.

Unless all the submarine optical fibers connecting the mainland are cut off, there is no way. Even if you start from the root server, it will only add a little trouble to them.

And once this is done, it is of no use other than annoying and vigilant.

Besides, as an entrepreneur, he still hopes to maintain a good relationship with the other party.

For example, Tesla's vehicles sold in the mainland have been fully replaced with Aita's autopilot system, and the cooperation is extremely pleasant.

Musk pursed his lips and said seriously: "We have to be thankful that the upper limit of the physical transmission of the speed of light in information communication is still unable to break through, which allows us to maintain our advantages in the semiconductor and information industries - but this advantage does not It is not the advantage of leading, but the advantage of maintaining the existing pattern."

"Similarly, the physical upper limit of data transmission also determines that it is impossible for Aita to widely affect our traditional allies--Ita products and domestic robots in Europe, which give people a bad experience."

"Therefore, we don't have to worry too much about the public opinion on Twitter, because they have to directly connect to Twitter's overseas servers, and the experience is not good. The message you said about keeping the formation is only a small part of people joking. And also Only during special periods will a large number of mainland users log on to Twitter."

Musk explained patiently, and paused: "Now, our biggest problem is. Whether it is controllable nuclear fusion, spaceships, or moon landings, we don't have a signature lead."

"So, it is a good opportunity to land on Mars first and detect black holes."

Musk looked at the old man: "We should launch a black hole detector first to regain the initiative in space exploration."
