Advanced Players in Arc

"Why are my eyes full of tears? Is it because I have wanted to see this day for too long?"

"I feel a little sad when you say that. Maybe it's just like what Mr. Dong Chen said, we humans will finally officially leave the earth."

"Well, at least after the new Tiangong Space Station is built, it will be much easier for us humans to move around in space."

"Yes, this is much more professional than the International Space Station. It is definitely a standard space port. It has a lot of spacecraft docking, personnel rest, material supplies, and equipment maintenance. If it were bigger, it would be a fully functional space base."

"It's already very good. Those functions are all based on the size. With a tonnage of more than 5,000 tons, it will definitely be better than the International Space Station."

"Yes, even if the United States has the technology to simulate gravity, a 400-ton small-tonnage space station cannot be used at all. The main reason is that their launch costs are too high, and most of them are spent on freight. To build a space station with a thousand tons It will definitely vomit blood, let alone more than 5,000 tons."

"Yes, so a 400-ton space station is the result of multinational cooperation, and the maintenance costs are quite high. And now I am considering whether to continue investing money in it. I instantly feel that the International Space Station is so pitiful."

“Arclight Aerospace’s transportation fee quotation is half that of Musk Aerospace, but looking at the scale of their new Tiangong Space Station, their cost is absolutely terrifyingly low, otherwise they would go bankrupt before it is completed.”

"Anyway, it's a breakthrough. If you dare to build it like this, you must be able to bear it."

"I think this big brother's welding skills are very good. He may also be a very powerful welder on earth."

"He is now the number one welder in space. I think there is nothing wrong with this title."

"There's nothing wrong with that at all. It's impossible to send a second person to a mission in this situation. He's definitely the most powerful person in space right now."

"It feels like we humans are great and can work anywhere. In fact, humans are very adaptable."

"As a human being, I feel very proud! This is how the starry sky is occupied by us bit by bit."

After Yang Nianming started the welding work, Dong Chen returned to the living cabin of the space station, and the other fourteen space workers also joined the construction one by one, and the robots with different functions also started to move.

Since there is no place to store materials in space, all materials and parts are in the cargo hold of the space transport aircraft. They will only be taken out from the cargo hold when they are used. Therefore, if Dong Chen wants to return to Earth, then We have to wait until the first aerospace transport plane has finished unloading its cargo.

He has no objection to this. After having a relatively large space for activities, he is quite happy to stay in space for a while.

However, these people and machines all move very quickly. These goods are not simple steel plates, but parts that have been pre-shaped. Some need to be welded, some need to be bonded, and some even need to be assembled. Just one piece will do.

All the parts have actually been manufactured on the ground, and some internal and external basic structures exist. When the time comes, they can be assembled or welded together, and then the instruments and equipment can be installed directly inside. Modularity is so convenient.

The process must be streamlined as much as possible, otherwise even a robot working in space will waste a lot of time and energy.

After all, there are a large number of employees in the manufacturing base on the ground, as well as smart equipment for manufacturing, so doing these is not a problem. As long as you don't disclose it to others, others will never know how productive you are.

After a few "Diao"-class and "Falcon"-class aerospace aircraft have been produced, they have officially entered the stage of intelligent mass production. By then, only a small number of engineers and senior technicians will be needed to complete the production much faster than before. With the speed of production, you will soon be able to see numerous aerospace transport planes shuttle back and forth.

After the space station's maintenance workshop and living area are formed, more construction personnel and robots can be dispatched to the space station to perform construction tasks.

So although the Xintian Palace Space Station is the largest space construction project in human history, its construction period will definitely be frighteningly short, and the entire construction can even be completed in less than a year.

The new space station will not be docked with the current space station until it is built, because vibrations often occur during the construction of the space station, which is very detrimental to some space experiments and will cause noise to disturb astronauts.

Although sound cannot be transmitted in a vacuum, if it is docked, solid conduction will transmit the sound to the space station, and there is air inside the space station, so this will make the space station very noisy.

Moreover, the newly built space station will continue to move slightly during the construction process, so the engine will often be started to adjust the orbit, which is also a bad thing that will affect the experiment.

Fortunately, the "space construction site" is not far from the existing space station. If the workers want to come back and rest, they only need to fly a short distance. The space suits controlled by the intelligent control system will definitely send them back safely.

Dong Chen was sitting in the living cabin waiting for the first plane to be unloaded. Everyone else was busy working. The live broadcast perspective was also on the "space construction site". Dong Chen, who was free, looked at the beautiful earth outside the window. It’s so satisfying to watch the live broadcast and the comments from netizens.

Seeing the netizens' comments on his speech, Dong Chen nodded with satisfaction and smiled. He just activated the taunting skill on purpose.

Not only did he want to encourage them to catch up quickly, but he also wanted to see if anyone would jump out and cause trouble.

According to the information he had, the United States' "small unmanned aerospace plane" experiment was close to success. Of course, it was actually a space shuttle. After all, it couldn't take off directly from the ground and still had to rely on rockets to send it up.

But it did what its predecessor could not do, that is, its reliability and reusability have been greatly improved, and the maintenance procedures and maintenance costs after completing the mission have been reduced a lot.

Although it looks small, is unmanned, and has a payload of only two tons, it is still very handy when used as experimental equipment or to decorate missiles.

Nowadays, the launch vehicle technology of various countries has also been greatly improved, mainly stimulated by Arc Light Space. The space funding of various countries has increased a lot. Although the time is still very short, there has been accumulation in the past. As long as... you have money, it will be easy to do things. .

Therefore, the rocket carrying capacity of various countries with conditions is also constantly increasing, especially those powerful aerospace countries that are already strong, and they are basically trying to master reuse technology to reduce costs.

It is foreseeable that in a few years it will be much easier for countries to transport cargo to space than before.

Because Hua has received technical support from the Arc Light Group, it is now one step ahead of them in terms of transportation, but it still needs to catch up in other aspects.

The development of private companies is also rapid, stimulated by Arc Light Aerospace

A few years have passed quickly for the country or other companies, and they are full of confidence in their plans.

It's just that a few years is indeed too long for the Arc Light Group. For such a long time, the Arc Light Group may not have gone anywhere.

Also, Dong Chen noticed the hope for the future of mankind revealed in some people's words, which was what he wanted to see.

Originally, all countries set their sights on the earth. Because the early accumulation of aerospace technology was too costly, many people were reluctant to develop in this area and felt that they could not see the benefits. Therefore, only a limited number of companies and countries were involved. develop.

Due to low investment, development has been very slow, which makes Xingkong seem unattainable and unprofitable.

Dong Chen's big move drew people's attention to the starry sky again, and because of the arc light technology, people saw the future that was right in front of them.

Then there is the third consecutive question about the quality of people in other countries: Where are our aerospace planes? What about our big space station? What about our space workers?

The national space agencies of those countries are also feeling bitter. The state does not allocate funds, so they are of no use.

However, they dare not say that. They just publicize that state agencies and private companies are not comparable and have different functions. They hope that the people will be rational.

People don't care about this. When the media said every day that a certain private aerospace company had surpassed China's aerospace capabilities, didn't those Chinese people also scold it every day?

No, just came out cursing Arc Light Aerospace.

We have to scold, and we have to scold every day!
