The Technology Tree of Xueba

Li Qihua heard a question from Zhou Yu, he sighed and explained helplessly: "The advantages of gravitational engines are many, and their performance far exceeds that of particle electric push engines.

Its only disadvantage is that it consumes too much energy. Even if it is equipped with 80% of its load in a particle battery, that is just to let it fly for 3 minutes at the lowest power.

Gravity engines simply cannot use particle batteries as their power supply.

Until we find a new energy supply method, we can only seal the gravitational engine, we cannot use it to make advanced spacecraft.

Because the gravitational engine cannot run continuously at all. "

Zhou Yu heard Li Qihua's complaint, and he said, "If you continue to optimize the gravity engine, the Energy Research Institute will solve it.

What is the basic operating principle of a gravity engine? How did it come to drive the spacecraft. "

"I can rest assured that the gravity engine we are studying will not be considered a spare tire.

Gravity engines drive spacecraft movements. It mainly uses gravitational traction technology and gravitational repulsion technology.

Traction by celestial bodies in the front and repulsion of celestial bodies in the rear exerts a huge force on the spacecraft by utilizing the universal gravitational attraction between the celestial bodies.

Make an inappropriate but visual metaphor.

There was a pillar by the river, a rope wrapped around it, and the other end of the rope was tied to a boat in the river.

A gravitational engine is a small boat in the river. The celestial bodies that provide gravitational anchors are pillars tied to ropes by the river.

With the boat alone, it is impossible to get the boat close to the river bank.

Only when the person on the boat pulls the rope will the boat get closer to the river bank.

Gravity engines are ships, and gravity technology is rope.

To get the boat to shore, you must have external power to power it.

As long as the supplied energy does not exceed the limit of the gravity engine, the more energy provided, the stronger the gravity engine will play. "

After Zhou Yu knew the data of the gravity engine, he asked Li Qihua about the difficulty of manufacturing the gravity engine in detail.

After knowing the general situation of the gravity engine, Zhou Yu left the Spark Science and Technology Research Institute.

During this time, the main technology researched by Spark Technology is a new type of neural interaction technology and a gravity engine.

The importance of other technologies has not yet reached Zhou Yu's interest.

As soon as he returned to the office, he heard the report from Xianghua: "Master, Lu Jinming, president of the aerospace business group, has something to report to you."

"Let Lu Jinming come over," Zhou Yu commanded.

Lu Jinming quickly walked to Zhou Yu's office. He sat opposite Zhou Yu and sighed: "Zhou, our plan to advance the moon is troubled. Now we don't know how to proceed."

The lunar advance base is one of the most important recent plans for the Spark Aerospace Group.

The main purpose of this plan is to build an unmanned base on the moon.

This base is responsible for manufacturing intelligent robots and completing the base construction plan through intelligent robots.

Before the astronauts land on the moon, intelligent robots must build facilities such as clothing, food, shelter and transportation.

Places for astronauts, space farms, simple processing plants, communications facilities.

These are indispensable and must be manufactured in advance by intelligent robots.

Zhou Yu asked in amazement: "The moon went well before going to the base. What problems did you encounter?"

Lu Jinming reluctantly said, "The lunar advance base is well planned at the beginning. We cooperate with the Spark Science and Technology Research Institute.

According to the different functions of intelligent robots, a complete set of intelligent robots have been designed and completed.

Scientists also designed lunar factories and lunar farms according to the lunar environment.

With factories and ranches, astronauts can survive on the moon for a long time, at least their ordinary living supplies can be supplemented on the moon.

We only need to transport special materials to save space on the spacecraft and make the entire transportation more efficient.

But I found that because of one item, the entire supply chain failed. "

"In the end, what kind of item can actually affect the success or failure of the entire project." Zhou Yu asked.

In fact, he already has the object of suspicion. There are only a few factors that can affect the success of the project. The factor that is prone to problems should be energy.

Lu Jinming said with both hands, "This thing is a particle battery, and we really can't help it now.

I didn't notice this little thing at first, but when I finally planned the overall project, I saw that it took up too much transportation space.

The Lunar Progress Base is operating normally every day, and its consumption is similar to that of a small city. "

Zhou Yu heard Lu Jinming say this, and he puzzled: "The particle battery can be recharged repeatedly, and the Moon Advance Base does not need to transport too many particle batteries at all."

Lu Jinming shook his head helplessly: "How to charge the Moon's advancing base, there is no way to solve the huge power consumption.

At present, the only means of power generation that can be used by the Moon Advance Base is solar power, which cannot make up for the huge power consumption and the energy gap is too large.

Geothermal energy cannot be used to generate electricity on the moon, and there is no fossil energy such as coal or petroleum on the moon for power generation.

The use of nuclear fission reactors is too polluting, and the use of nuclear fusion reactors requires too high maintenance technology.

We can now only transport charged particle batteries via the moon, and then transport them back to dry particle batteries.

Only in this way, the effect of the moon's advancing base cannot be effectively used at all, and most of the payload is used to transport particle batteries. "

After Zhou Yu heard Lu Jinming's remarks, he did not expect him. The problem they encountered was also the problem of energy supply.

He thought about it, but this was not surprising.

One of the shortcomings of Spark Technology now is portable energy.

After the development of the particle battery, Spark Technology has not invested in portable energy projects.

In fact, as a portable energy source, particle batteries have reached the apex of a certain technology.

Scientific theories on earth no longer make breakthroughs, and it is difficult to develop portable energy storage methods that are more efficient than particle battery energy storage.

Further research and development of portable energy storage ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ that is the energy block technology often appeared in science fiction.

Zhou Yu knew that with the current level of technology, energy blocks could not be manufactured at all, because the basic manufacturing principles were not understood.

"Manager Lu, you go back and wait for the news, don't give up the moon to advance to the base.

The Spark Research Institute of Science and Technology is currently working on new ways of using energy and will soon achieve results. Zhou Yu explained to Lu Jinming.

When Lu Jinming heard this sentence, he said with a smile: "The company is ready, then I will go back and wait for the news."

After Zhou Yu saw Lu Jinming leaving, he sat in a chair and meditated.

He told Lu Jinming just now that he had thought of inspiration for solving the problem of energy supply.

Can't make more efficient portable energy storage items, then optimize the power generation equipment to make it portable.

Now Zhou Yu has to rely on her knowledge reserve to turn this inspiration into a practical technology.
