Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

Chapter 1047 Earth-Moon Material Transfer System

The Toad Palace Project is an epic plan to use unmanned construction clusters to build a permanent base on the moon and transform the moon.

The plan is divided into three broad sections.

One: Moon Slow Express using the "Nantianmen Platform" as a springboard.

The smart payload is sent into orbit using chemical fuel, and then the Nantianmen uses the gravity-free environment to complete the secondary acceleration through electromagnetic ejection, selecting a "slow trajectory" that saves the most energy.

In the traditional plan, the time required to reach the moon from the departure from the earth is about 12-15 days, depending on the orbit.

It includes three steps: earth orbit, earth-moon transfer orbit, and lunar orbit.

As for Starry Sky's "Slow Express", the first leg is the same as a rocket entering low-Earth orbit. It only takes a few dozen minutes, but the subsequent journey takes about 30 days, twice as long.

But the benefit is that the cost is greatly reduced. The chemical fuel only needs to be paid to enter low-Earth orbit, and the second half relies on "long-orbit electromagnetic ejection" for acceleration.

To achieve this level of electromagnetic acceleration, "lithium-sulfur batteries" alone are definitely not enough. It also requires the cooperation of a lot of power hardware. The most important thing is that a set of equipment will be used to match the "polyvalent manganese super energy storage" of a medium-sized hydropower station. liquid".

This technology will also be used on the lunar surface.

Without a low-cost "launch" capability, building the lunar surface would be like a mirror in the mirror. However, relying on the unique advantages created by Nantianmen, this method was found.

These payloads will be captured by the moon's gravity according to calculations, and then adjusted with small Hall thrusters, rotating ten or eight times, and then slowly "smashed" on the lunar surface.

There is no need to waste precious mass to carry "engine" and "propellant", because there is no need for them to come back, they can not be broken and the landing point is concentrated.

With no human beings and no propulsion, the payload ratio of the second and third stages of landing on the moon can reach a terrifying 95%.

After calculation, even if the face is extremely dark and the damage rate exceeds 50%, because the load is full of effective parts, the cost is still far lower than the soft landing plan.

Win with quantity.

Those previous lunar explorations were for scientific research.

The Toad Palace Project is infrastructure construction.

Infrastructure must look like infrastructure. How can we talk about infrastructure without scale? Materials must not be packed one truck at a time.

Why are you trembling? When the foreigners next door saw it, they thought we couldn’t build it!

Second: the Earth-Moon communication channel built under the leadership of the space agency.

In the Toad Palace Project, the ground completes multi-point positioning in the form of a self-organizing network. Once the calibration is completed with high accuracy, it does not need to rely on satellites for its own positioning.

However, signal transmission between the moon and the earth requires more support to achieve low-latency, high-bandwidth control and communication.

The space agency will launch the moon-circling satellite "Queqiao-1", which is a lunar-orbiting geostationary satellite that will always face part of the moon and provide high-speed signal relay. Based on this, it will gradually build the "Lunar Beidou".

In the early days, it was not necessary to cover the entire moon. It only needed to be effective in a designated area. No matter how small the moon was, it was still a star with a surface area of ​​38 million square kilometers. The expansion rate of lunar surface construction was far from that fast.

At the same time, the space agency will also start building a "lunar orbit platform", tentatively named "Guanghan Platform". With the experience of the "Qian Xuesen Platform", it will not be difficult for the space agency.

The equipment required for construction is also transported using the "Moon Slow Express" method, but the orbit is different and does not fall on the moon.

The lunar orbit platform is not the initial target. It will be carried out after the Toad Palace project is effective. The functions are also very similar. The "Guanghan Platform" will assume the relay function:

"Slow Express" that relays and returns to Earth

The Earth Slow Express and the Moon Slow Express, together with Nantianmen and Guanghan, will completely build a "normalized material transfer channel" between the Earth and the Moon.

Third: This is the ultimate goal of Toad Palace, to transform and build the moon.

After the smart construction cluster is implemented, the construction of "solar farms", "energy storage facilities" and "simple scientific research facilities" will begin in the first phase.

If the first stage is completed, in addition to the smart device itself, energy can be "sourced locally".

Moreover, the early discovery of scientific research facilities will also determine the methods and needs for lunar surface construction in the middle and later stages.

The second phase is to build "intelligent industrial clusters" and "permanent fortifications."

If this stage is completed, the lunar surface will have basic self-production capabilities, and building materials and other things can also be obtained locally. Taiyi Industrial has conquered the "lunar soil sintering and die-casting" technology.

At the same time, the moon's lunar soil contains a large amount of metals and oxides. "Local materials" will always be the core indicator of the Toad Palace Project. We will continue to find ways to increase the ratio. This is also the key to going from 0 to 1, and then from 1 to 100.

The third phase includes the construction of “large laboratories” and “rocket launch manufacturing facilities.”

The completion of the third phase is marked by the ability to launch a "matrix rocket" on the lunar surface: an ultra-small recyclable rocket specially designed by Zhou Rui for an atmosphere-free environment.

Responsible for flying to the "Guanghan Platform" - unloading - and then landing back.

This is the most economical way. In extreme cases, it is not impossible to launch directly from the moon and rush back to the earth.

Let’s first say that this is not a lunar cannon, we are just sending some goods back. But I am in a hurry.

Zhou Rui acquired the Matrix Rocket very early. He obtained it by using the ability of "different approaches but similar results". It has also been optimized and upgraded in the past two years.

Based on the lunar surface with one-sixth of the Earth's gravity, the efficiency of "lunar-to-earth transfer" is much higher than that of "earth-to-moon transfer", and the hardware requirements of the matrix rocket are much smaller than those of the Earth rocket.

In fact, lunar surface construction is a chain of links. With the largest and most comprehensive "research" on the moon in history, more and more understanding and results will emerge, and then the technology and solutions will be continuously optimized, and finally the moon will play its own value.

Some people may ask, where is the profit point?

This method will cost money even if it saves costs? What is the output? How to make a profit.

People who ask these questions are at the same level as those who asked "how much GDP can be driven" when Chang'e 3 explored the moon.

They can't see long-term benefits, but can only see short-term gains and losses, and have been spinning in their own cognition.

Why are subway stations built in wasteland? Why do we need to connect electricity to the mountains? Why build cross-sea bridges? Why build aircraft carriers? Why don't you give me this money?

Let's not talk about the general propositions of scientific and technological development and human progress.

Zhou Rui said: If you hold the entire future of the moon in your hands and still lose money.

That is really the tragedy of mankind.

Don't treat the construction of the moon as a business of paying money and delivering goods.

This is to discover the largest gold mine in the world.

This gold mine has inexhaustible scientific research value, resource value, reputation value, and cultural value.

The investment in the "Chan Gong Project" is nothing more than the early exploration and equipment procurement of the gold mine.

At present, whoever builds the moon first will light up the technology tree first.

In the future, whoever can lead the moon will lead the earth.

In the future, whoever can master the moon will start the interstellar era first.

I made such a big move, and you asked me where the profit point is?

What's the difference between this and asking me if my eyes are dry after I said I cut for three days and three nights?

Any extension can leverage commercial value. BYT can even sell aerospace color cars. I am in charge of a moon, and I am still afraid that I can't realize it? There are enough gaps in the diversified market to activate the value of the moon.

But that is not what Zhou Rui cares about.

From a broad perspective, Furui Group is no longer pursuing profits

Zhou Rui is no longer an entrepreneur. He looks at the world from the same perspective as the top leaders of the organization.

Yesterday, he was satisfied. Today, he wants to pursue higher ideals.

If you really can't understand it, just think that he, Master Zhou, has made money and started to spend money to satisfy his selfish desires.

Others like to buy airplanes and yachts, play with celebrity antiques, purchase manors and castles, and raise song and dance troupes.

And he.

Likes to transform the moon, what's wrong!
