Genius of the Rules-Style System

Among the many public opinions about launching satellites around the sun, the most concerned one is the distance between the satellite and the surface of the sun.

One hundred thousand kilometers is too close.

If compared to the radius of the earth of more than 6,000 kilometers, the distance of 100,000 kilometers is still very far away. Even compared to the distance between the earth and the moon, 100,000 kilometers is only one-third.

However, the sun is too huge.

The sun's radius is as high as more than 695,000 kilometers, and its diameter is more than 1.39 million kilometers. Compared with the order of magnitude of one million kilometers, one hundred thousand kilometers is really too close, and it can even be said that it is about to be ' Take it in.

When the distance is just a data, the most important thing is that the distance is too close, and the influence of the sun will be very large.

Even on the distant earth, the powerful influence of the sun can be felt, let alone on the surface of the sun.

At a location of 100,000 kilometers, if there is some solar activity, according to relevant research data, the temperature may exceed 1,000 degrees Celsius.

This temperature is enough to melt most metals.

So how do satellites around the sun that are so close work? Didn't it melt just as soon as it reached the set track?

Of course, melting is just a discussion. The space agency has announced that it will launch a solar satellite so close to the sun, so it must have mastered the relevant technology.

So what is the technology?

This is an issue that a lot of public opinion is concerned about.

When some professionals came forward, public opinion immediately turned to a technology -

Material!

Only by resisting high temperatures, high radiation, and high electromagnetic storms can electronic equipment operate close to the sun's surface.

Public opinion immediately turned to related material technology. Many opinions directly pinned the technology on Zhao Yi's head, believing that Zhao Yi had developed super materials that were heading into a new field.

There is nothing wrong in saying that. Z-wave compression technology was indeed developed by Zhao Yi.

However, the subsequent fermentation of public opinion linked the technology with Yixing Technology, thinking that it was the related material technology that Zhao Yi helped Yixin Technology complete.

At this time, Advanced Compression Materials Company stood up and made it clear that the satellite materials were manufactured by the company, and also gave a simple explanation, "Based on Academician Zhao's research, we have mastered a technology that can compress any material with high strength. .”

"Through this high-strength compression technology, the physical properties of the material can be qualitatively improved."

This announcement explains the core technology of the circumsolar satellite, and also confirms that the technology was indeed developed by Zhao Yi.

Public opinion was not surprising.

The most important thing is that it seems that any incredible technology can be directly linked to Zhao Yi's name.

If it were anyone else, it would be a surprise.

At this time, public opinion can also understand why Yixing Technology can cooperate with NASA, advanced compression materials and other departments, because the technology was developed by Zhao Yi, Yixing Technology is a company under the Aviation Group, and Zhao Yi is the direct person in charge , are naturally qualified to cooperate with these companies.

At the same time, it is relevant foreign institutions that are more concerned about material issues.

Many institutions and companies that master cutting-edge material manufacturing technology have thought of the spacecraft project that is under constant negotiation.

These institutions and companies possess the highest level of technology and consider themselves qualified to serve as core partners and directly participate in spacecraft projects. Some even use high-end material technology in exchange for participating in the R\u0026D and manufacturing of core components.

They were rejected directly and ruthlessly, and very simply.

Although the spacecraft project has officially begun, and some incidental components have already entered the manufacturing process, because it involves a large amount of technology and materials, manufacturing cannot be completed in a short time, and negotiations with other companies and institutions are still ongoing. middle.

Institutions and companies that master top material technologies are the most difficult to reach agreement on cooperation.

Previously, these institutions and companies did not understand why the domestic negotiating team refused to cooperate so simply.

Now they understand that it is because the country has higher-end material manufacturing technology, and the high-end materials they master can only improve the manufacturing of spacecraft.

"This must be a new technology and a new manufacturing method!"

"Advanced Compressed Materials Company is a newly established company, and they probably focus on this technology."

"So that's it!"

"They must have mastered a very attractive and high-end method of compressing materials, so that the physical properties of the material can be qualitatively changed, and the equipment can even withstand high temperatures of thousands of degrees and high radiation storms."

"So, what is the technology? How is it done?"

These institutions and companies immediately started research. The only thing they knew was that material manufacturing must be related to 'compression'.

How to compress it?

Many relevant institutions have begun to design various compression experiments.

The design of the Materials Laboratory of the University of Pennsylvania is very novel. They designed a high magnetic field internal rotation device to compress soft aluminum metal.

The principle of this design is to set a high magnetic field on the outside to affect the internal electronic operation of the aluminum metal. At the same time, it gives physical force to the aluminum metal through inward rotation and compression. It is expected that the aluminum metal can be strengthened from both internal and external aspects. compression.

There are other laboratories with very interesting designs, such as an international steel manufacturing company that specializes in the production of steel for military purposes and also masters the most cutting-edge steel manufacturing technology.

The compression experiments they design now are also very ambitious.

Their public experimental design is to prepare an ultra-high-strength hydraulic press and set up a vacuum-sealed environment to directly physically compress metal materials.

Comparing the two experimental designs, the design of the University of Pennsylvania Materials Laboratory seems to be more reliable.

In fact, people in the field of materials expertise are more optimistic about the steel company's experiments, because the steel company's method is relatively direct and is likely to have certain effects.

The design of the Materials Laboratory of the University of Pennsylvania is said to compress from the inside out, but what works is only internal rotation compression. The internal electrons are affected by the magnetic field and rotate. For metal materials, it is more reflected in conductivity and magnetic field. Characteristically, theoretically physical properties will not be affected.

Of course.

Both experiments are definitely meaningless, because Z-wave compression uses Z-wave to perform direct space compression. It is the compression of space that affects the material, rather than physical compression.

The announcement by the space agency has great positive significance, which has greatly improved the reputation of Yixing Technology. Many people have begun to pay attention to Yixing Technology, but at the same time, there are still doubts from the outside world, because Yixing Technology is an operating company. Operations are all aimed at achieving profitability.

Spending a lot of money to explore the sun has no profit point no matter how you think about it.

So why does Yixing Technology do this? Are you prepared to spend all investors' money on exploring the universe instead of striving to achieve profits?

From the perspective of the country and scientific research, it is somewhat great for companies to spend money on scientific research to explore the universe.

However, from the perspective of enterprises and investors, just continuously investing in scientific research and doing high-end research and development to explore the universe is equivalent to spending investors' money to 'win people's hearts'. It feels very awkward no matter what. It is better to set up a company. Research institutions.

No one will say much about using public donations or state-appropriated funds to invest in high-end scientific research.

In order to calm the public's doubts, Zhao Yixian still stood up and said a few words, "As the person in charge of Yixing Technology, every R\u0026D and every agreement reached by my team and I are for the purpose of promoting the development of the company. Instead of using investors’ money to do scientific research.”

"My team and I have been committed to ensuring the rights and interests of shareholders and striving to enable Yixing Technology to achieve positive returns as soon as possible."

This is from the perspective of the person in charge of the company.

Zhao Yi believes that it is indeed necessary to make a statement. Scientific research institutions that only do R\u0026D can of course spend a lot of money on unprofitable R\u0026D, and the purpose is to promote the development of science.

It's different from the perspective of an enterprise. Companies that are not listed must also be responsible for investors. After being listed, they must be responsible for shareholders and ensure the rights and interests of all shareholders, even ordinary shareholders.

Zhao Yi's words were like reassurance, calming the public opinion immediately.

Of course.

There are still many people who have doubts, but doubts can only be kept in their hearts for the time being.

Two weeks later, Zhao Yi led the research and development team to the NASA launch base. The energy-gathering satellite was completed and was in preparation for launch.

There is still a lot of work to be done in preparation for launch.

Zhao Yi directly took over the work of the chief engineer and personally tested the data reports submitted by each team, and participated in a series of testing and parameter verification work.

At the same time, Zhao Yi and his team worked together to improve the control system of the energy-gathering satellite, the core of which is the emergency control system.

The emergency control system ensures that when the satellite is affected, it can be manually operated to quickly move away from the sun.

The emergency control system uses space connection technology and relies on image transmission for control. At the same time, the system is also very important and is one of the core components of the satellite.

This is mainly due to the cost of building energy-gathering satellites. The cost of energy-gathering satellites is too high. The cost of patented technology alone is 1.3 billion. Because most of the materials used in construction are compressed materials, the material cost also occupies a large part. part.

Including assembly, labor, testing, etc., a series of costs have reached 3 billion.

In addition, the energy-gathering satellite has not been launched, so there is still a big bill to pay.

The weight of the energy-gathering satellite is as high as eight tons. If such a high-weight satellite wants to escape the gravity of the earth and fly to the sun, the first problem it faces is to exceed the first cosmic speed.

This is very difficult.

The initial plan was to build a special anti-gravity spacecraft and transport it in an anti-gravity manner. However, the speed of anti-gravity spacecraft was not very fast. The way to escape the gravity of the earth was to always turn on the anti-gravity device, which would consume a lot of energy.

This means that in order to complete the launch, we have to separately design an anti-gravity spacecraft that can escape the gravity of the earth, which is not worth the gain.

In the end, when Yixing Technology and the space agency communicated about the launch issue, the agreed method was to use the Z-wave satellite of the space station and build a special anti-gravity spacecraft to transport the energy-gathering satellite to complete space shuttle, so that the satellite can be directly away from the earth.

Although a space shuttle experiment has been carried out, it cannot be said to be technically mature. We can only try to ensure that no problems occur. However, the launch cost is still very high, with a maximum of more than 700 million yuan. The main cost is not to manufacture the spacecraft, but to Fill the space station's Z-wave device with energy.

Therefore, the overall cost of energy-gathering satellites is close to 4 billion.

That’s four billion!

What is this concept?

The weight of the energy-gathering satellite is eight tons. Even if all parts are replaced with gold, the value is only about 3 billion. As a result, the total cost is as high as 4 billion. In other words, it is worth more than gold.

"Made of gold" is an exaggeration, but when placed on a concentrated energy satellite, it becomes a "modest" statement.

So you can imagine how much Zhao Yi and Yixing Technology attach great importance to energy-gathering satellites. Even in the process of preparing for launch, Zhao Yi was thinking, "We must first enter the civilian field. This choice is right." of."

"You must get your money back first!"

"If we just invest in research and development, we won't even be able to build a second energy-gathering satellite!"

"Only when the cost can be recovered can we have the money to continue building the second and third buildings and invest in research and development in other fields."

——

The launch process of the energy-gathering satellite was uneventful.

Although the launch work was confidential and there was no live broadcast or interview, the process still attracted attention.

For example, some senior leaders came directly to watch the launch process.

This is mainly because of the technical content of solar energy-gathering satellites and the launch composition involving space shuttle.

The last space shuttle was an experiment, this time it was a mission.

Every space shuttle will accumulate experience, and experience is very important. The data recorded during the completion of the space shuttle is a very valuable asset.

The entire launch process of the energy-gathering satellite is the same as the last space shuttle experiment, that is, the anti-gravity thruster transports the energy-gathering satellite and slides into the predetermined Z-wave compression route.

Then, the anti-gravity thruster carrying the energy-gathering satellite quickly disappeared, and when it reappeared, it was already 200,000 kilometers away from the earth.

At a position of 200,000 kilometers from the earth, the anti-gravity thruster continues to move forward relying on the remaining energy and the gravity of the sun, and will separate the energy-gathering satellite at a position of 10 million kilometers. The energy-gathering satellite will rely on the gravity of the sun to continuously Accelerating forward, the anti-gravity thruster will be abandoned, but it will also approach the sun at a slightly slower speed. It is eventually expected to be melted and divided into pieces by the high temperature of the sun, and perhaps most of it will eventually be melted into the sun.

The energy-gathering satellite accelerated and reached its maximum speed two months later——

Two hundred and eighty kilometers per second.

The current speed of energy-gathering satellites is only eight kilometers per second, and the time it takes to reach the intended orbit on the sun's surface is only two months.

I beg the master of mathematics and physics not to worry about speed data!

The author has graduated from college for more than ten years, and has long returned his high school physics knowledge to the teacher. After studying for a long time, he has not been able to solve the complex calculation relationships related to weight, speed, and angular momentum at a distance of 100,000 kilometers from the sun.
