Deep Space Fleet

The real farewell, there is no long pavilion and ancient road, no persuading you to have a glass of wine, just in a morning like usual, some people stay in yesterday.

In the silent universe, a spaceship sails slowly, everything is like a still picture.

Life exists in the universe in the form of infinite loops. Theists call this reincarnation, while atheists call it immortality.

The 600 people inside the spaceship are all of the current new civilization. Compared with the eternal change of the outside world, human beings are changing all the time. Time makes everyone who wakes up from hibernation feel the cruelty of time.

But this series of changes is just a series of small light beads in time and space. From the beginning to the end, in the eternal universe, it is just a moment...

Whether you accept it or not, you must accept it!

a week later……

Zhang Yuan has already arrived at his workplace.

People always have to face reality, and it is not his style to immerse themselves in sadness for a long time.

"Mr. Zhang, you are really a strong person. You are at the 16th grade. Many people will be depressed for a month..." Fang Yuhao, his replacement, said very understandingly.

"...It is impossible to get back what has been lost. It is more important to focus on the present. What's more, everything in my future is on the spaceship." Zhang Yuan forced a smile, "Keep yourself busy , you won’t have so many distracting thoughts, will you?”

Fang Yuhao recalled the days back then, and said with a wry smile, "Hey, that's true. I also kept studying to numb myself... Soon, two years have passed. Two years is enough to smooth out the pain I once suffered. memory."

"This kind of simple work seems to be a waste of your talent... I believe that you will be able to get started soon. In the next half a month, I will hand over all the work items to you. Then I will go to hibernation... ..." Fang Yuhao stretched out his right hand after saying this.

"no problem!"

The two shook hands vigorously.

Theoretically, the second hibernation would not receive such a severe impact, because basically everything that should be let go has been let go this time. Therefore, this Mr. Fang Yuhao also prepares for hibernation with peace of mind and boldness.

And Zhang Yuan's next work is mainly about the control of the molten salt reactor, which is a breeder reactor based on fission energy and is currently the main power source in the spacecraft. In the case that most of the functions are turned off, the fusion engine is not required to provide energy, so a little power generation is enough

Molten salt reactors are simpler in structure than complex nuclear fusion engines. Zhang Yuan has learned related structures, such as Brayton heat cycle, power generation principle, etc., and also some simple manual maintenance.

His task is also very simple. If the artificial intelligence of the molten salt pile is controlled and a serious safety alarm is issued, he will be responsible for deciding whether to close the lava pile, whether to wake up a large number of workers from hibernation, and so on.

"Yes, it's that easy. If it's a small problem, you'll be responsible for solving it yourself; if something big happens, wake up the big team and don't force yourself. The 600 of us can't do too much troublesome maintenance work."

Fang Yuhao explained seriously, "Actually, there is no need to worry too much. This thing is not an ordinary nuclear reactor. The outlet temperature is around 700 degrees Celsius and does not require water cooling, so it has very good intrinsic safety. Under normal conditions, You don't have to think about it exploding."

Zhang Yuan thought for a while, and with a responsible attitude, he asked again: "What about the replacement of parts? I'm just worried that the nuclear power plant will stop working automatically due to the loss of parts. It's hard for a few people to handle everything..."

Fang Yuhao said: "Your worry is indeed very unlikely to happen... However, three years ago was a big year, and the nuclear engine had just been maintained, so the probability of a major failure is very small in theory."

"If one of the molten salt reactors really fails, you can start another spare nuclear power unit. You have such authority and you are also responsible for it."

"Understood, what if the third nuclear power unit also fails?" Zhang Yuan asked again.

"Then turn on the fourth... There are a total of six molten salt reactor nuclear power units in our spaceship. When the fourth is turned on, we must consider waking up the large force."

Zhang Yuan thought to himself, he shouldn't be so bad, and destroyed so many nuclear power plants in two years.

When these nuclear power plants were designed, they were designed according to the standard of durability. It is already a small probability event that one is broken, let alone two or three.

"The spaceship is still very new... Anyway, it's a very leisurely and simple job. Don't worry too much." Fang Yuhao saw what he was thinking, and said, "When you are bored, you can see what is going on on the earth. Something happens, or you learn some new theory, and time passes."

"By the way, I recommend a few comedies to you. They just came out. The pop culture of the 25th century is not the same as ours. Some things are quite interesting. This movie will be at 8 o'clock tomorrow night, and the Z area will sing theater play."

"The movie "A Havoc on the Westward Journey" is pretty good, and the anime "Dragon Ball" and "Three Companies of Migrant Workers"..."

Similar group activities are often held in the community, generally speaking, watching movies and watching comedies. Activities such as cultural performances are always difficult to do, because everyone is generally in a bad mood. Who wants to go on stage to sing and dance?

Zhang Yuan quickly waved his hand: "Let's forget about comedies. It's been so many years, and I'm still filming Journey to the West. I'm really unimaginative... I'd better learn some normal knowledge. Learning can bring me happiness. "

...

In this way, under Fang Yuhao's hands-on guidance, Zhang Yuan has learned to look at various data for more than half a month, and clearly knows what is a big problem and what is a small problem. This is enough.

In addition, he has learned this knowledge himself, so it is very easy to deal with it...

After the smooth handover, Fang Yuhao entered hibernation smoothly, and Zhang Yuanlai took over the position.

There are a total of six people in this office, three shifts, two teams, sometimes one team. Everyone is responsible for similar jobs, which is theoretically enough insurance.

Everyone has their own way of pastime, some people like to read manga, others like to watch movies. The new things that have been produced for more than 180 years are enough for everyone's entertainment, especially the development of the earth's civilized society and technology, which has always been a very hot topic.
