From black technology to super engineering

Of course Ye Ming knew what the reporters here wanted to hear from him.

In fact, it is not just these reporters. In the past six months or even longer, whether it is the scientific community, or his relatives and friends, or even high-level officials... have asked him more than once. What.

This... It can only be said that everyone really trusts him and hopes to hear a reliable and reassuring answer from him.

But at the moment when he didn't see it, how dare Ye Ming talk nonsense?

He is not a god, nor is he interested in being a god stick—besides, he has no certainty about anything except that the black hole can provide a relatively stable entrance to the wormhole.

So, waiting is the best answer.

"As for those voices who are skeptical and worried about space exploration and development, what I want to say is that all exploration and development activities, including this exploration of unknown celestial bodies, no matter what they encounter or what happens now or in the future, human beings We cannot stop exploring and understanding the universe because of this."

Ye Ming supported the microphone, and continued after a few seconds of silence: "As a scientist, I feel extremely happy to be able to live in an era of technological explosion."

"Maybe some people don't have this sense of happiness, and don't even have the opportunity to feel the impact of the technological revolution on their lives... For this, what I want to say is... It's not their fault."

"Who is to blame?" Ye Ming shrugged and laughed, but obviously with a bit of astringency: "I don't think you can blame me, right?"

There was a low chuckle from the reporters below.

Linda was also laughing, but she could tell that Ye Ming was indeed a little "depressed", so she just smiled and looked at Ye Ming seriously again.

And she also knew that what Ye Ming said was the truth.

Apart from the scientific community, from the perspective of ordinary people, the people who oppose this black hole detection are mainly concentrated in the "traditional developed countries" in the West.

And those people, frankly speaking, they really don't have the opportunity to feel the impact of the technological revolution on their lives.

God has nothing to do with them, the construction of controllable nuclear fusion is still underway, strong artificial intelligence has nothing to do with them, and long-distance communication is regarded as the enemy of privacy and strictly rejected...

Therefore, in the past six years, the new technological revolution that has been happening vigorously in the eastern land seems to be an Internet entrepreneurial story for those people-this can also explain why people still think that the Guanghan Palace Base is something Yes, it's all fake.

So, who is to blame?

Of course Linda believes that everyone has the right to choose how to live, but it is clear that the right of choice of ordinary people in the West is naturally "covered".

They didn't know how awesome Aita was at all, and they didn't realize that the domestic lead was no longer a dimension.

"So, it's still the same sentence, just wait. I hope that in the future, everyone will stop asking questions about detection, and focus on other aspects, such as the field of exploration and construction within the department."

"..."

For the next question, the reporters still gave Ye Ming face, and as far as the project itself is concerned, the importance and difficulty of the orbital space city is definitely higher than that of black hole detection-but without the blessing of "unknown", it becomes a bit awkward So eye-catching.

With the cooperation of the reporter, Ye Ming mainly introduced the situation of Space City and Guanghan Base, including technology, scale, final planning and so on.

At 11:30 in the morning, the press conference ended, and Ye Ming returned to the office.

...

Ye Ming looked at Peng Xiaofei on the opposite side of the video and said with a smile. When he was done, he caught a glimpse of the nurse girl passing by Peng Xiaofei, and greeted him friendly: "Hello, Tang Wei."

Tang Wei, who had already walked over, came back immediately, and responded blushingly: "Ah, hello, Academician Ye."

"Are you still used to it?"

Ye Ming knew that these two were the first pair of astronauts to openly fall in love, and judging from the way Peng Xiaofei greeted him before he asked him to find him, it was obvious...these two had "done affairs" above.

"I'm used to it, thank you Academician Ye for your concern."

"Well, you're welcome, and don't be so polite in terms of address." Ye Ming replied with a smile: "I want to be the godfather of your children, you are like this, shouting from academician to academician, let me It's very difficult..."

Tang Wei: "..."

After the joke was over, Ye Ming and Peng Xiaofei got down to business: "This vacuum elevator was originally designed for the space city, and now I will test it for you."

Last year, Peng Xiaofei complained to him that the lunar base is too big, it is extremely inconvenient to walk to and from get off work, and it is too lazy to change clothes when driving a lunar rover, so it would be great if there is a fast transportation.

This matter immediately attracted attention from top to bottom—because the base was developing too fast, it was indeed not considered at the beginning.

In the past, when there were no conditions, it was easy to talk about anything, but now that we want to build a "city" level base, we must go for comfort.

So after discussion, everyone decided to put the external vacuum elevator originally used in the space city on the moon first.

"No problem, and according to me, the air environment of the moon and space is actually similar, and all projects in space can actually go through it on the moon. In case there is any problem, the moon still has a ground, doesn't it?"

Ye Ming smiled and nodded: "That's the reason."

Peng Xiaofei nodded contentedly: "By the way, when will the underground project start?"

Hearing this, Ye Ming sighed: "Take your time, the country is now advancing in all directions in the space field, even if the landlord's family has no food left...how can we have so much energy to engage in underground projects?"

The so-called "underground project" in Peng Xiaofei's mouth refers to the underground living space project proposed by the Guanghan base-currently all buildings on the moon are built on the surface.

The advantage of building buildings on the ground is that it is fast - under the standardized and modular building scheme, the construction difficulty of building a building in the low-gravity environment of the moon is much easier than that on the earth.

But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it needs to use a large amount of thermal insulation materials to resist the temperature difference between day and night of the moon, and the strength of the materials must also be considered.

Therefore, the concept of underground engineering was brought up—there is already a lot of evidence showing that there are a large number of cavities in the interior of the moon. The underground city where you live is still possible.

This idea is good, but as Ye Ming said, the country is now a Guanghan base, a space city, an asteroid belt detection, and a black hole detection...

How can there be so much money?

"Okay, shall I go to orbit this time?"

"I'm going, just to tell you about it."

"Okay." Peng Xiaofei agreed.

——In half a month, the country will officially launch the first phase of the space city plan, which is the space observatory.

The plan will be jointly completed by Wenyue, Yaoyue, and Xuntian 1 and 2. Among them, the Yueyue and Wenyue are equipped with space construction personnel and platforms, and the Xuntian is used to load materials.

Peng Xiaofei, as a gold medal engineer with rich construction experience in the space environment, of course he has to take charge of the overall situation.

After the two chatted for a while, Ye Ming was about to end the call.

But at the moment of hanging up, Peng Xiaofei suddenly asked.

"Ye Ming, don't they let you come up? In space, the vision is really different, and the feeling is also different..."

Ye Ming was slightly taken aback, and then became annoyed.

"roll!"

...

Time passed quickly, half a month later, Wenyue carried more than 100 engineering personnel, and took off from Xichang with Xuntian 1 and 2, and Yaoyue carried construction personnel who had completed the construction of the lunar base, including Peng Xiaofei and others. Fifty people within 100 people took off from the moon.

In late May, four spacecraft converged on the Earth-Moon L2 Lagrangian point.

Under the eyes of hundreds of millions of people around the world, Yaoyue opened the cargo hold and released the first living module.

Also known as cabin 0.
