Technology's opening live broadcast to build rockets

"Nuclear reactor output is stable."

"The electromagnetic field output is stable."

"RF generator frequency is stable."

"The power of the nuclear ion thruster is stable and everything is normal!" All indices are within the normal fluctuation range.

Du Xingyu stood up and shouted: "Everyone, I announce that the test run of the nuclear ion thruster was successful!"

"Successful!" Everyone in the control center was filled with joy.

"From today on, the distance between the Earth and Mars is no longer an obstacle to us!" Xia Tong clenched his fists and said excitedly: "With nuclear ion thrusters, we will no longer have to launch Mars probes and Mars spacecraft in the future. If you take the Earth-to-Earth transfer orbit, you don’t have to worry about the window period, you can visit Mars in just over a month!”

"With nuclear electric ion thrusters, we have reached a new level in aerospace dynamics!" Liu Yuan said with emotion. The successful development of these two nuclear energy thrusters, nuclear thermal rocket thrusters and nuclear electric ion thrusters, will The distance of human space navigation has suddenly increased hundreds of times!

"Xiao Du, are you interested in joining our Institute of Atomic Energy?" Zhou Ziang started poaching people directly.

"No, Du Xingyu is the treasure of our space agency. You can borrow him, but you can't poach him!" He Jingcheng joked.

Du Xingyu smiled and said: "There will be a time to visit."

"Now that the nuclear ion thruster has been successfully tested, we can complete the manufacturing of the Yinghuo Mars spacecraft." He Yan couldn't wait and said, "It will create a new record in the history of human manned spaceflight."

"Let's go and see our thrusters!"

…

With the successful test run of the nuclear ion thruster, the manufacturing speed of the Yinghuo Mars spacecraft has also been greatly accelerated.

During this period, we will naturally encounter some problems and difficulties, but with the wisdom of everyone, they can be solved in time. Therefore, this Mars exploration mission has successfully turned into a manned Mars landing mission.

"I applied to be a member of the manned landing on Mars." Du Xingyu said calmly in Cao Liang's office.

"It's hard for me to agree to your request..." Cao Liang admired Du Xingyu but felt helpless. There is no doubt about Du Xingyu's talent, because his arrival has enabled the space agency to achieve a lot of world-class achievements.

But sometimes he can be too radical. Just like now, even if the Mars spacecraft can be successfully manufactured, landing on Mars is still a very dangerous thing!

Separated by hundreds of millions of kilometers, if the spacecraft is in danger during space navigation or Mars landing, the earth will not be able to support it.

"This is not a moon landing, the risk factor is even greater!" Cao Liang said, "You only need to command from the ground. The landing mission will naturally be completed by astronauts."

"I have seriously considered it." Du Xingyu said, looking at Cao Liang firmly, just like the last time he asked to land on the moon.

During long-distance space voyages to Mars, technological simulators can collect more information to predict disasters.

The unknown enemy is the most terrifying thing. Du Xingyu cannot relax because he doesn't know when the disaster will come. Therefore, he must go to Mars to obtain information about the disaster earlier so that he can prepare earlier.

The atmosphere in the office froze for a whole minute, neither of them said anything. Seeing that Du Xingyu's attitude had not changed at all, Cao Liang sighed slightly and said: "Academician Liu told me that the more outstanding people are, the more paranoid they are, and they are often even more paranoid. Some unusual hobbies.”

"Everyone else has good hobbies, but you like to explore space...that's all. Maybe this is the source of interest that stimulates your inspiration!"

He said: "You go to the Mars Surface Simulation Experiment Base for training."

"Thank you, leader!" Du Xingyu knew that this matter was done.

In the Gobi area, the space agency has built a simulated Martian surface ecological area. The astronauts on this mission to Mars are trained here so that they can better perform their missions after landing on Mars.

In addition, the space agency is also cooperating with the extraterrestrial ecological laboratories and mechanical intelligence laboratories of several universities. They will develop modular autonomous robots that will travel to Mars with the Mars spacecraft to help astronauts build a Mars base.

…

"Xu Lianqiu, are you sure you want to apply to join the Mars scientific expedition team?" Xia Tong, the leader of the research team in the Mars scientific expedition team, said to Xu Lianqiu.

"I want to emphasize that that is not a place for little girls to go. It is very dangerous and difficult!" Xia Tong looked seriously at the female researcher in front of him.

Xu Lianqiu entered the space agency as an intern as an outstanding graduate of Aeronautical University, and was a classmate of Du Xingyu and a graduate student led by Liu Yuan.

She was also very good among interns and became a full-time employee ahead of schedule in just two months.

Xu Lianqiu took a deep breath and bit her lower lip lightly. She said: "I know, I am still willing to apply to go to Mars. This Mars landing mission requires several months of survival on the surface of Mars and the completion of scientific research. Task."

"I am definitely not as good as those astronauts in the task of building a base, but I am better than them in scientific research. Many of the researchers in our group are old comrades, and it is impossible for them to go to Mars for field inspections. I can receive training!"

Her thinking is very clear. The Mars landing mission must carry scientific researchers along with it. She is familiar with all aspects of the situation and is more suitable for carrying out Mars scientific research work.

"I will apply, but I can't confirm for you whether it will pass." Xia Tong said.

…

The shortest window for the distance to Earth and Mars is getting closer and closer. The Yinghuo Mars spacecraft has been completed ahead of schedule and is undergoing various debugging and performance tests.

Du Xingyu has also been training in the simulated Mars surface ecological zone for two months. It is worth mentioning that Xu Lianqiu also passed the training.

At this time, not only China, but also various countries have begun to prepare for a new round of Mars launch missions.

In view of the previous grand "beach landing" on the moon, this time all countries capable of carrying out Mars missions have announced that they will launch Mars probes.

The Russian Space Agency, the European Space Agency, the Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the Indian Space Agency, etc. have all prepared new rockets and Mars exploration satellites.

As a major space country, the United States directly announced that it would launch a manned spacecraft to Mars.

At the Houston Convention Center in the United States, the American Space Agency is holding a press conference to announce the United States’ plan to land on Mars to the world media.

Spokesperson Anderson proudly announced: "With the efforts of American scientific researchers and various partner companies, we will launch a Mars landing mission ten years ahead of schedule! For this plan, we have spent 40 billion US dollars!"

"Fifty days later, during the short-range window period in the orbit of Earth and Mars, we will launch four 'Ares V' heavy-lift launch vehicles to send a total of 400 tons of 'Mars ships' to Earth's low-Earth orbit and then assemble them."

"The Mars Penetrator will carry eight astronauts, four men and four women. They will arrive at Mars after a seven-month space voyage on a Mars ship. There, they will conduct an expedition for about 550 days before returning to Earth."

"This will be a feat that has never been achieved in human history. Staying on an unfamiliar planet for more than a year and traveling to and from space for as long as thirty months!"

"Let us sincerely congratulate our Mars mission on its successful completion. The United States will kick off the exploration of outer planets for mankind! Maybe in the not-too-distant future, Mars will become our second home!"

Thanks to Sun Fayang for the reward.
